    Can’t complain. The functionality of the acts buds to be connected to two different devices is unmatched. Sound quality is great as well. Only thing that could improve is the transparency mode. Still hard to hear conversations with mid volume levels. Otherwise a great product!

    Great Gamer buds. No lag playing PCVR. Mic is trash so I stick to my headset mic. Luckily I didn't buy them for the mic.

    First pair of buds I've actually liked, very comfortable with the right inner ear attachments. Holds a decent charge for long streaming sessions as well, can use a single and easy to go mono sound if needed of you have a lopsided charge in the base.

    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.

    Excellent for everyday use or gaming! I have used these every day I have had them and they are now my go to over my Beats or Bose. Gaming wise I throw them in after my normal pair of Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless become to heavy on long gaming sessions or to hot. The sound quality in game is dang near on par with a $350 headset.

    Excellent earbuds for PC gaming. Spacial audio sounds good and noise canceling works great. Automatically switches to your phones Bluetooth if you answer a call. Seamlessly goes back to 2.4 mode after call. Awesome feature.

    Absolutely beats my Playstation 3D pulse headphones by a mile. The sound and ANC stand out amongst buds I've tried before. I use them everyday and have had zero issues.

    Great earbuds that I wouldn’t even consider to be “gaming” do they sound great on PC and PS5 for video games? Of course they do but they also just sound great for music and phone calls as well. The microphone quality is surprisingly good for earbuds as well.

    Great set of earbuds. I love the option of using Bluetooth and the dongle. Especially since it allows them to be used with everything. The software is good. Its nice to use an app on your phone or the software on the computer to make changes. Noise cancelation helps drown out outside sounds but they aren't completely gone.
