    Very good quality. I bought these because I needed a fps headset. this one is awesome. i play cod, and i can hear footsteps really well, and i can decipher which direction the steps are at pretty easily. has a good mic. the headset might be tight if you have a large head, but the pads make it pretty comfortable. no complaints at all. if you are unsure about which fps headset you need, this one is a solid option.

    They are extremely comfortable. I got a big head and these ones don't hurt. Mic is clear according to friends. Could be louder but it's good.

    I like nice-looking things. I do not think most gaming headphones are nice-looking. These however, look just as good as they sound (for the money). The ski mask strap is nice and kind of unique, the all black matte is sleek and out of the way, the retractable mic always gets a 'wow' from somebody, and they have pretty good surround for a can at this price. Works flawlessly with my PC, Nintendo Switch, and PS4. It could have been a little louder on certain systems but it was sufficiently loud nonetheless.

    This is an amazing headset this is a very food quality headset, super comfortable and light on your head, because it has a strap (which is adjustable) your head won't start to get warm after some time of use. for around 70 bucks it'll last you for a long time, at the time of writing, it is on sale for 48.99, obviously. Also, the quality of the sound is perfect and very crisp.

    The Arctis 3 provides a robust over the ear audio solution for both listening and communication. Both the speakers and the microphone make good use of an analog response, delivering crisp, immersive, and high quality input and output for all applications. When paired with a nice wire setup, a comfortable headset, and a design which is easy on the eyes, It has become a valuable addition to my everyday PC experience, whether it be intense, relaxing, or anything in between.

    I purchased this headset to replace my gaming headset that was no longer worked properly from a different manufacturer. I was intrigued by the band design for comfort reasons and I must say it is the most comfortable headset I've ever owned. Sound quality is excellent. Mic quality is excellent. The ear pads don't rest on your ears causing any discomfort. I really recommend this headset!

    Got this for my wife to use for conference calls and I kinda want to take them and give her mine... Headband is stinkin cozy (techne) and the ear cushions are amazing. I like how the mic can go into the headset and also the cable is detachable. Steel series is great and when my Cooler Masters need to be replaced I'll definitely go with the brand. My only wish here is to have the detachable cable to be braided to feel more durable.

    The best bang for you buck. I've owned so many headphones and I think these are the most comfortable. I have a high end sound card and I don't get any feed back from the microphone. I've bought really expensive headphones and the SteelSeries are right there with the $200.00 range. Also, I really like the three piece cord connects. Like me I always snag the cord on something, It will disconnect before you damage either end of the plug.

    This is the best headset I’ve ever used! I highly recommend this headset I used to use Razer products but I’m glad I made the switch. Especially since these headphones come with cotton ear pads rather than your typical tpu leather. You can really see the quality difference compared to other headsets. This is great for gaming and everything else. Sound and mic quality are amazing!

    Headset is pretty comfortable, although after a couple hours you can definitely tell it's on your head. Sound quality is good. I was expecting a bit better when I tested it with some music. But for gaming it seems good. Clear, and gets pretty loud. As far as I can tell mic seems to be good according to my friends. I think for the price you get what you pay for. They are a solid lower-end set. I won't be returning them unless there is a major defect.

    I bought this Steel Series Gaming Headset to use with my gaming pc. The sound quality is pretty good with decent bass and adequate volume. It seems pretty well built in terms of build quality and the mic works well. Others are able to hear me clearly with little to no distortion. I would recommend these for those looking for a good wired gaming headset that are on a budget.

    Amazing value for the price! I use this pair of headphones for FPS gaming, like Valorant, and music sessions, and I’m very satisfied with the quality. I love how the little mic is retractable so that it can be tucked away whenever it’s not in use. Do keep in mind that the clamping force is on the stronger side for these headphones (perfect for smaller head shapes like mine).
