    Headset sounds awesome and with Dolby Atmos on Xbox Series X it sounds even better! One of the best things is the fit. These feel great and the strap keeps it from fitting too tight on your head. Great headset.

    I’ve had many headsets of varying levels through the years. For the price and performance. This has been the best. I like the detractable mic that goes in and out of ear piece for ease of storage and protection.

    My son always has his head set on, whether for his games or videos. At times I think he is ignoring me but when I go into his room take them off him I ask did you hear what I asked you. Always says did you call my name. He says they are very comfy. Think I should take for my tv.

    These are the headphones I currently use for Xbox and I really enjoy them. These headphones feel good and strong and the price wasn’t too steep. Overall a solid price and a solid product.

    My son asked for these and I bought it as a gift. He said it is made gaming a lot better and clearer than the old ones he used to have. He’s even use them for school and says they are quite comfortable and better quality and listening.

    The pair I've been using fits very comfortably and the audio quality is as expected. Noise pollution is low. Only drawback is that the mic needs to be pretty close to pick up anything.

    I use this headset for my Xbox one and love it. It’s super comfortable, easy to use, and the price is really good. I have used other headsets that cost more and feel like I got less.

    Sound quality is there, price was a big factor. These are affordable and work good for a first pair of headphones for gaming. Had them now about 2 weeks and used almost everyday. Happy with the headphones. 2 sets of wires, very straightforward, plug and play.

    Awesome headset works very well. Love that the coil doesn't get tangled. Excellent quality. it is also very affordable for the quality. For sure would continue to buy steel series kinda regret not getting the Arctis 1 Wireless though.

    My son is very picky and he loves his new headset, he loved the fact that the mic is retractable. He said the foam on the headset is comfortable on his ears. I'm just glad that my teenager can smile every once in a while!

    My boys bought this and according to them they like it. They are 13 and 14. I personally didnt like it. For me it was too loose and didn't sit snugly on top of my head. The microphone retracts. I thought that was a cool touch. I wore them for about 30 min and I didnt feel bothered by them. My boys wear it for hours and they never complain about their ears hurting so I guess it's a pro for long listening. The sound was a con for me. It was definitely good and did its job but it just wasnt "wow". For the price I would reccomend it. This is my boys' 3 set of headphones (all 3 were not the same model) not because they are rough with them but because the speakers blew out.

    Sound is a bit lower quality than some other headphones at the price point. However, the functionality, solid construction, comfort, and great microphone more than make up for it. Great for gaming or conference calls!

    I ordered this headset early in Feb 2021, It cancels out noise better than my Apple Airpod Pros, doesn't eat away at battery life, and is overall a great product. I am now a Steel Series buyer for life! I was torn between the Arctis 3 and 5, and reviews said the 5 was worth it, but I am telling you that there is no reason to waste the extra dollars! The LED lights only eat away at battery life. Not only that, I love that this headset is wired, who knows if Bluetooth earbuds are bad for you, so when I am gaming I like taking a break from Bluetooth, plus there is no charging! 100% Buy

    Best headset for under $70. Doesnt feel nearly as cheap as some of PlayStation’s headsets. And at a fraction of the cost. The retractable mic is a cool feature. It is not gaudy to look at or wear as well.

    The earpiece is made with cotton and is very comfortable and the sound quality is excellent, play with it on for hours and no pain from wearing a tight headset, worth the price for sure. Works on my PS4 and PC as well as my smartphone.
