    Very clear crisp sound and good for the price. I have enjoyed it quite much for multiple applications.

    Been through an insane amount of gaming headsets for a large chunk of my life and these have been the number one choice! The sleek look and feel along with comfort and compatibility with different electronics just make these the best gaming headset i’ve had.

    These seriously do not get the praise they deserve. they are so comfortable it's ridiculous. sound great too and love the fact I can adjust game and chat volume since headset shows up as two devices in windows. really nice for raiding in wow to just turn the dial more to chat to hear teamspeak better.

    These are really good quality both build and sound! They don’t hurt my head as much as my turtle beach’s. My one complaint is I use them for my Xbox one and since I plug them into my controller the lights on them don’t light up which is a bummer. They light up if plugged into a computer with the usb.

    Great solid headset, but picks up every sound

    This headset was great, solid construction with metal (not all plastic like most), the sound is top notch (as you can hear others trying to sneak up on you), it has decent bass but more highs and mids, and overall I was very impressed! Until I realized it picks up every little sound in the background! I bought these as they brag about what a great mic it has for getting rid of back ground noise, but even my ceiling fan on low is picked up on this thing! It spins so slow on low you feel no air movement right underneath it, but I'm usually several feet back from it. My neighbors dog barking in their backyard on the opposite end of my block (foam insulated) house is picked up... I've always had turtlebeach, which picks up none of this (yes it has an air filter), but even my polk 4 shot doesn't pick up my fans on high, much less low. The Hyper x never picked up anything either, so this is disappointing, as they all use plastic which is why I was trying these. Good headset but mine picked up far too much in the background to keep.

    Bought this for my son as he needed a way to communicate in games. He loves these headphones. They're comfortable, have great sound and the mic performs well. He uses them all the time while gaming on his PC. We chose to get wired headset as we wanted the best real-time performance.

    These were a gift for my boyfriend who is a big gamer and he loves them. He did his research beforehand and found these to be the exact product he wanted. He still uses them after I bought them over two years ago so they last long and the sound quality is amazing!

    Love this headset, super comfortable on your head with the adjustable strap. I use this on my Xbox one and the sound quality is great. I was disappointed when I learned that the colors do not work unless it is set up on a pc. It didn’t say anything about that in the box.

    Clear sounds, needs more base. Terrific mic! This is perfect for gaming and video chats. My friends noticed a greater clarity when we game online. I've also made several video/audio recordings for an exam and it did not disappoint. Definitely one of the best out there for the price range.

    I was blown away by the detail in the sound, seriously was amazing. Picked up detail that I could barely hear on $300 headphones. Really comfortable, barely notice I am wearing them and the lighting effects are great. Love the red indicator on the mic itself for mute.

    The is the second headset I have purchased. They are very comfortable for a user who is a marathon player. The sound quality is excellent. For the price, especially if you wait to buy them on sale it is hard to beat. I definitely give this headset a thumbs up.

    So I bought these to go wired alongside my Afterglow PS4 headset which is wireless because I wanted something with better mic quality. The mic quality is much better with SteelSeries, but it wasn't always perfect. For example, when I first got them, so many options were missing from console that they advertise, and they don't tell you they're PC only..for example, sidetone, which is the ability to hear yourself through the mic. This was absent for a good month after I bought them, and the cups fit tight around your ears, so hearing your own voice was very hard. In a recent update, they finally added sidetone abilities and it works much better, but now the only problem is if your volume is max on the headphones (since I tend to control it from PS4) then you hear a constant high pitched buzzing noise from sidetone. Somehwat annoying, but i've gotten rid of it by dropping volume on the headphones and maxing it out on the PS4. It doesn't go away 100%, but it's not as noticeable. Either way, they sound good, and the companion app on the PC is cool.

    I have tried many headphones but never as this ones, they are really comfortable and the sound detail is very accurate especially combat games that tracking your enemies steps is crucial. Recommended for gaming.

    I purchased this headset after his Xbox Brand headsets kept malfunctioning. After a short time, his friends were not able to hear him talk while playing the game. The Artis 5 has been great so far, and he loves the sound quality and how comfortable they are.

    This headset is stylish and VERY comfortable. I can wear them for hours without fatigue because of the way they fit around my ears. They also stay pretty cool. The mic is in a good spot and retracts nicely. The controls for volume and mic muting are easy to access.

    This headset really shocked me at its quality. the sound and microphone are the best. However, the headband although comfortable does lose itself and stretches out over time forcing you to buy another strap from the manufacturer​.
