Bought these because I have a laptop and I don’t like carrying around big headphones with me all the time, and in my house I have two little babies so I have to be very quiet when gaming, so I cannot wear over the ear closed back headphones otherwise I would talk very loud, they do the job, pretty good sound quality, definitely not the best for music tho, but for gaming it’s good, easily hear footsteps and gunshots, not the best but it does the job.
Mic is really good and impressive for the price, really.
The only real complain is the fit, my ear canal is pretty small and these go very deep into the ear canal so they hurt a lot with the silicone tips they come with, I replaced them with some other tips from another headphones I have and they’re ok, the pressure is still there but it’s alright.

This is the second pair of these that I have bought. I really like them, and I think they are a great alternative to over-ear headphones. I get headaches easily, especially with heavier headsets, and these alleviate that issue. They are also very easy to travel with and use with devices beyond just gaming consoles. The sound quality is solid overall; the only issue I have is with the earpieces - they are bulky, and you have to find the correct-sized tips for them to sit comfortably.

I don’t like the bulky over the head headsets, so I decided to get this one. They are good but feels awkward because they have the in-ear suction that’s supposed to maximize sound but it just made it somewhat uncomfortable for me. Some may like it but I don’t. Other than that I think they are a solid pair of headsets for a reasonable price. Can’t hurt to try at this price point.

I bought these with low expectation and they proved me so wrong! These are great and the microphone is good quality as well. I bought these as I was looking to give my head a break from the head band. Now i still have a great mic and no risk of my head denting xD

For gaming earbuds, you cant expect more. I enjoy taking this with me playing video games on the go on my phone and my laptop. If i dont want to bring my big gaming headset, id take this and it does the job. Mic pick up on the other end its not 10/10 rather 6/10. Its said to be minimun static and low voice pick up where id have to speak up when i dont want to. Its does it job well.

These earbuds are great for me because overhead headsets often hurt my head after extended wear because I have a larger sized head, the sound quality is awesome, crisp and clear on everything and bass boost is also a welcome feature, only disadvantage is how close the mic is to the bud. It often causes people in your party to be able to hear their echo if you have your volume high to hear other people, so something to keep in mind but overall a great product.

was a bit concerned with review about how far they go in ear, but i do enjoy these as an alternative to over headphones when playing games. once i changed them to the smaller size buds became a bit more comfortable long term. and the quality is great for being just earbuds as opposed to the full size tb headphones. love the versatility from ps4 to Nintendo switch.

Super cheap, that's a huge plus! Sound quality is pretty good too, for the price. The downfall, is that the left side moves around a lot, simply because the mic itself is too heavy and it just doesn't stick in the ear, unless you want to mash it in there and possibly cause some damage. It comes with some different sized pieces, which is great too.

Not really for me, they would frequently fall out of my ears

I bought this in-ear gaming headset as a backup for my Pulse 3D headset should it run out of battery while playing a competitive game like Call of Duty, and knowing that this is a gaming oriented set of buds, with a decent price, I figured to give it a try. The pros to this set of buds is how surprisingly loud the sound was (provided you also did the sound loudness level on your PS5) to the point that my ear drums were hurting from the gunfire and explosions while playing Call of Duty: Cold War. Although the sounds effects were loud and crisp, soundstage quality that is found in surround sound oriented headsets such as the Pulse 3D and Astros are virtually non-existent, meaning all sound effects and ambient noises seem to be coming from the same direction at the same time. The cons is the same from everyone else who have used this set: The mic is so sensitive that apparently it also picks up vibration from the bud itself, making it an annoying noise to other players online. In other words, don't use this gaming buds if you plan to heavily chat with your fellow team players. I really wanted to recommend this, due to the sound quality, but at the same time, I can't for the fact that you would be annoying to everyone else with your over sensitive mic.

I got these on sale for $18 plus tax. I bought these as a backup for when I have to charge my razer nari essential headset or when I am playing on my Xbox controller. I didn’t expect as much because these were my first “gaming” earphones but I was surprised. My friends on discord said I sounded loud and clear, just a little different. I also hear the game/voice loud and clear. The detachable mic is better to use for game chat. For the cheap price retail or on sale it is similar to my headset. I was able to play comfortably for hours however that varies on you. This whole purchase is on you.

Earbuds are very good. The mic sitting close to my mouth gives a more clear sound so others can hear me better. They fit well in my ear except after a couple hours (either virtual school or gaming), my ears start to get sore. No recommendations of how this could fit nicer for longer periods of time.

I was surprised at how great buds for the price. The mic and earbud quality were great and fit in my ear wonderfully. The only bad thing I have to say is my left ear bud would sometimes cut out. If you luck out and don’t get a lemon, I’d recommend getting them!

I bought my first Battle Buds over a year ago and they are my go-to headset for the Xbox. I prefer these ear buds over headphones even though I have the original Microsoft Xbox One headset, Logitech G633, and Steel Series Arctis 9x. The latter 2 headsets have better sound quality but the Battle Buds are lighter and easier to wear. I picked up these as a second pair to use for Zoom and Google Meets video conferences. People often tell me that my voice is very clear on these platforms.

I’ve been using it for my switch, and the quality of the sound is very clear. I used the mic in discord and the other person said I sounded fine and didnt notice I was using a different mic. My only complaint is the gummies, these type of buds/gummies always feel meh and kinds slip out. I got this in sale with a $5 coupon.

I bought these for my son who had broke one black pair and then lost a second black pair. It was more supposed to be a punishment getting this color but he actually turned out to enjoy the color scheme. But as far as use, he really enjoys this style. He doesn't use the boom mic and doesn't have to. These things are an absolute deal with how well they work and how cheap they are. Great quality and they come with additional ear pieces to find the best comfort in your ear.
Worth it!!!

I bought these on sale for $20 I needed a headset in a hurry til i got my new ones and i loved these so much! Clear sound works great with my mixamp, downside is the the rubber outer ear piece can get a bit itchy good thing is you can take it off or put smaller ones that come with it but overall definitely recommend!

Overall, a good purchase for its price! The sound quality is mostly clear when undergoing multiple inputs— the only downside being that they eventually start to hurt after having them in for multiple hours. This has persisted even after changing out the tip types for a better fit.
