I hate wearing hats always pinch on my head but these headphone don't. They block enough outside noise that I can play Overwatch without issue but if something loud does require my attention I'm not totally clueless.

Definitely not an audiophile set but its better than most for gaming at least. Friends said mic came in clear, locational sound is decent but not amazing. For the price it's solid.

Only complaint is I am on my second one and it can not get annoyingly loud. No matter what I can hear my surroundings pretty clearly. But other than that it is amazing and a decent upgrade from my zx stryker.

I personally did not really look like these. But for the small time that I used them, they seem to work pretty good. I just didn't like the fit of them.

They seem good quality, solid build, sound alright but if I was buying again I think I would spend the extra for the arctis 5 headset for the better quality surround sound

Good headset. Very comfortable. Sound is OK it could be better. But it has a application you can download on the computer to adjust a lot of sound options.

Provides a solid listening experience as well as a microphone that doesn't pick up on ambient noise. Can comfortably play with others on their own headsets in the same room without echo or feedback.

I bought these for my PS4 and loved the feel and look but for me it was too quite. Fit great and sturdy build. The retractable mic was different but neat.

I am pleasantly surprised how well these sound. If playing video games or listening to music these headphones capture your attention and shut out the world around you.

Its a bit of a pain setting this thing up due to it being pure 3.5mm, no usb and with newer OS its not a requirement but it helps a great deal. Not to mention USB 3.0 slots improve certain things in my opinion. Not to mention the volume on the 3 is overly low unless you get a usb sound card for this. Nothing really wrong with it but even at max it sounds too low.

The headset is great at the price and can be used as headphones however it might be worth looking into the wireless models if cords bother you.

Got this set to upgrade from my Turtle Beach. Really good set! If you plan to use it on Xbox one... make sure u have the adapter. It lets you control the game vs party volume.

We bought these as a Christmas present for our son. He is very pleased with them; they seem to reproduce game audio well and have an excellent microphone. They also reduce ambient noise.
