    I would give this 5 stars, but I'm not a fan of how sensitive the buttons are on the ear buds, it's hard to turn volume up and down.

    Perfect for what we needed. The mic isnt the greatest, but not a deal breaker. It's less obnoxious than the huge gaming headsets and can be used out and about too.

    I attempted to use these primarily for gaming on my PlayStation 5 but the microphone volume was low per my group, the audio volume was inconsistent(verified that the volume limter was off), and the earbuds would randomly disconnect. On a postitive, they are pretty nice for everyday use when they do connect.

    Bought for the black ops 6 release. Was excited to get, but once hooked up my party can barly hear me. The sound of my voice is like in a tunnel or mic is across room. Ended up going back to my other arctis headset. Ill use the earbuds for other around the house stuff, but if your buying for gaming to talk with friends, look at other steelseries products. If your solo gaming, yes they can be good, sounds was different being use to normal headsets. Finding myself, I am pushing the buttons when adjusting earpieces.

    I was skeptical about buying this due to the hot and cold reviews. I pulled the trigger and I don’t regret it at all. I bought them as an alternative and they became my primary.

    Welp. Hate that I had to give a lower review because when worked, it was great. 1st lasted not a few months before right bud went out. Rma was completed, and then the new one also did the same issues, not even after 2 weeks. Maybe I just got lucky with bad sets, but im serverly disappointed.

    If you are looking for gaming ear buds, these are perfect. A lot of features and are not annoying as over the ear headphones for gaming.

    They worked fine at the beginning but i heard of lot of complaints from my friends wrt mic not being audible. And from there the experience kept getting worse. After couple months, the 2.4hz connection has just been a nightmare. I have to re-plug the dongle every time for the earbuds to get connected to my PC. And now, the left earbud stopped working all together. Do not waste your money on this product

    These are not ready for mainstream. Serious lack on SteelSeries part to make these usable. Cons: - When used in Bluetooth mode, they are a choppy static mess, which you can't make out anything going on. - Getting these to actually work in Wireless mode. - After you get them working in wireless mode, then turn them off, then back on, all wireless mode settings are gone. - The separate earbuds do not sync. Sometimes just one will start playing. - The "Sonar" software from SteelSeries GG, is very buggy, it attempts to make virtual audio devices to separate out the different streams. Which can be great, if/when it works. Pros: If you can ever get them to work right in wireless mode, they are amazing. However the moment you take them off, good luck getting them back in wireless mode I wanted some ear buds for my PC, but these apparently are not them, I had high hopes as Steelseries generally knows what they are doing with audio devices.

    Excellent pair of air buds. Easy to setup and connect. Needed a pair for ps5 and the Sony version didn’t have the best reviews. This are more bang for the buck!

    Just lost my left eat bud today on the way to the airport. Gonna get another pair. Maybe a notification system for when the earbuds are out of the case?!
