    Absolute junk! Sound was ok until sound on the right went out with 5 hours of use. Went back to old headset (RIG). My personal experience says don’t waste your time or money.

    Almost immediately outside of return date the headset started to echo online/in parties and no fix has been discovered. Do not buy this. Problem has been reported online with no fix.

    Not the best sounding headset I have ever used, but you cannot beat it at this price point. For less than $30, these sound wonderful when gaming.

    Almost Great

    These were almost perfect. It's just the sound quality. It has superb noise cancelation, great audio distinction and are sort of comfortable. It loses in sound quality though. The sound just sounds unnatural. It sounded like I was shooting inside of a metal container. Footsteps were great but explosions, gunfire and everything else sounded poor. The search for a good budget headset continues. This one was almost it.

    Works for what it's supposed to do. Not comfortable for this particular glasses wearer though. Squeezed and made the area under my ears hurt.
