    These have to be the best gaming headset I’ve purchased and I used to have A50’s. The noise canceling on them are great and also have nice bass when I’m playing music. Plus unlimited battery with them being swappable and charge while you use one.

    Great headphone for gaming and for entertainment. I picked this product because of its retractable mic and it is great. I purchased for my son and he can use it for his gaming and for his music during swim meets interchangeably without a hassle. Sound is great and wireless makes it even better. Price is slightly steep but it is worth the investment.

    Upgrades to these from the 7 series. I can tell sound quality is much much better and I really enjoy the bluetooth feature. The settings were a little confusing with mic set up. My friends had told me I sounded underwater at first but once I tweaked the setting it sounds great.

    Great Headphones for PC and Bluetooth, must buy if you’re going the wireless route. Bluetooth can be connected with phones, iPads, laptops and all other devices. Good mic aswell, would suggest an external mic instead for better quality. Overall 8.5/10 headphones for its deal and efficiency.

    Ehh only thing good about it is the mic quality, which your friends are the only one who would hear it. So hard to use on PC, it takes up a lot of usb port space, for those who don't know, USB has a set amount of space that can be utilized at once, kind of like RAM but for USBs, and this headphone eats it all up. Comfortable 9/10 Sound 3/10 Mic 9/10 Software 1/10

    Would give 5 stars but the software is just garbage and required to use this headset. Also not too long after use the headset would randomly disconnect mid use and I would have to reconnect it which took a few minutes. But I noticed that by having the wireless headset plugged in that issue wouldn’t occur. Sound quality is great but sometimes the mic quality would go to a wired tin can and would have to restart the pc or software to fix.

    Not like any other headset, the sound quality was better than most of the gaming headsets out there but the frame is too delicate for how I usually handle them. I moved up to a new version already. I might stick to this brand if they have metal frames.

    Good headset, recently upgraded too the Nova Pro Elite, much better headset, but a bit pricy. If your looking for something on the cheaper side this is definitely it.

    I bought these and my cats chewed through my dongle and Steel Series never had it in stock so I bought an AUX cable and gave them to my gf. She loves them.

    The headset itself is pretty light compared to previous ones I’ve had. The sound quality is great but at times I do hear popping/crackling sounds.

    Sound quality is all there. Very lightweight! Range is good (it picks up from my room to the kitchen downstairs.) Sidetown works perfectly. Equalizer and sound settings. I did not need to adjust the straps but they are nice.

    I bought the headphones and it was instantly set up. I set up the steel series app on my computer to dunk around with the sound but I wasn’t getting surround sound for some reason. Went to my sound settings and the mono settings were turned on. I turned mono off and my headset sounds fantastic. Only problem sometimes is my headset disconnects on its own but not a lot. If it didn’t disconnect I’d give it 5 stars. Totally worth the purchase.

    It has good audio and software. It’s comfortable especially because of the head strap. Sometimes ears might hurt after a use but it’s not a problem. The battery lasts a very long time.

    I’ve had this headset for a few years now and it still works perfectly. I wear it for extended periods with no issues. My only complaint is the strap on top can put strain on your head if you spend a lot of time wearing them. Touching grass can greatly help this though.
