    I love this product, but the main issue I had with it is that one side of the speakers would give out from time to time, there was no way to really fix it because it is wired, not Bluetooth. It did have good sound quality for the price

    I use this headset with my PS5 and it works great. The sound is clear and makes games more enjoyable. It’s comfortable to wear, even for long gaming sessions. For the price, this headset is a good choice and easy to use.

    I purchased these for my 9yr old grandson. I was worried they would be too big but they fit perfect. He lives them.

    Great Value, Just a Bit Tight

    These headphones are great for short use. I originally got them for gaming, but since my head is a bit larger than average, they feel a little tight. The sound quality is actually pretty good, particularly for the price. Overall they are fairly comfortable, I just wish they were a bit wider. Honestly, for the price, these are some of the best headphones you can get.

    Great Audio for the Price; clear mids and decent bass response make it ideal for gaming and casual listening. Retractable Microphone are handy for switching between gaming and everyday use. Limited Features: No active noise cancellation or surround sound.

    This was a spectacular headset for the price up until a few days ago a screw fell out and upon screwing it back in, the microphone no longer works. Great while it lasted.

    Great Sound, Average Material Quality

    The sound quality of the head phone are great. The sound quality is equivalent to Sony and SkullCandy headphones. In my own opinion, which is NOT a fact, I prefer skullcandy. HOWEVER, when you turn the headphones in, when you fold them in...they WILL break and I was gentle. I don't like the mechanism bc after so much use the headphones will break. the Headphones are also great for audio recording. Awesome for vocalists and voice over work.

    If you’re wanting a gaming mic just for sound, then by all means buy this one. It’s cheap, but still has good sound quality. Mic wise, I simply wouldn’t, you’re better off getting a stand alone mic and using this just for sound. When playing a lot of people stated that my mic was muffled.

    These are really great but honestly I feel as though the bass takes a backseat with these. I can hear literally everything I need to hear but I just feel like it’s not a full spectrum of sound.

    To be completely honest it's a good wired headset for the price with clear audio and a pretty decent mic. Now if your looking for a sturdy feeling headset then this one isn't it because it's mostly made of plastic but other than that its been working fine for me for the past 4 months now !

    Good headphones. Bluetooth and dongle connection working simultaneously was a bonus. Software is okay, but as is most proprietary things.

    Best Headset For an Unbeatable Price!

    This headset is like no other! First off, the retractable mic is amazing. If you dont want it when listening to a game or gaming online, it becomes out of sight, out of mind! With the mic retracted, your pals can still hear you great. But to hear you alazing, just pull the mic out. The mic is easily adjustable and easy to manipulate. The headset itself is so comfortable. The breathable cushions allow me to game fir hours and not overheat my ears. Very comfortable with my industrial piercing. The deep bads and the wife range that the speakers inside give, allow you to head everything. The ball hitting the glove jn MLB, the best lightsaber ignition in Jedi Survivor, or even those important footsteps you need hear in MW2. You can hear people anywhere you need and these headphones saved my life in MW2 too many times. The headsets adjustable volume wheel is so easy to use and it is right next to the mute button so you can quickly adjust both mid game. It has both a 3.5 mm to 3.5 mm thT can be used for any remote/console and even a dual 3.5 mm so it can be used on PC as well. Very loghtweight on yop of everything. So if you arenlooking dor the best bang for your buck and have headphones that are as good as $300 ones, GET THESE!
