    Good battery life and doesnt cut out on my PC. No delay in 2.4ghz mode and using an external mic. Headsets arent for me and these work great.

    Sounds great and works great BUT after about 3 months of use, I can’t control the volume from my phone through the Steelseries app. There is workaround by suing the button pressing to lower or up the volume but it’s so inconvenient. If you are getting this, purchase the protection plan which I did not do.

    I use it for gaming on my pc and it works well. I love how the buds can sense when it isn't inserted into the ear. Great quality for noise suppression and audio. The dongle is great for no loss connection.

    excellent sound quality. i was worried about viability in FPS games compared to overheads, but the directional sound sense is impeccable and the overall sound quality is great. comfortable for longer gaming sessions, and the steelseries app on pc allows for fine tuning of sound.

    These are my go to for everything now. I can pair them to my TV, my phone, I can link them to my PC with the dongle and my PS5 with the dongle. They're comfortable and fit in my ears without the worry of falling out if I'm eating or talking. Don't hesitate and give these a try.

    The sound is amazing crisp and sharp with very good deep base. But the mic is like most other ear bud type mics it gets the job done but isnt amazing. But you definitely want these for the sound quality, the presets are a great touch

    These are what I have been searching for for my Xbox for like 3 years until I found these. Have to reconnect them more often than the normal over the ear headphones but still so worth it to have this option!

    Incredible battery life. I have worn them over 6 hours strait and they never cut off. The sound is ok. My JBL TWS definitely sounded better. The range of the 2.4 is kind of weak but that not a big issue for me.
