    Love the way they fit and stay on really well. The pads around the ear are firm but don't hurt after a while of wearing them. The battery lasts a good amount of time and charges fast. The only thing I dislike is the button and volume wheel placement on the right side can hit your shoulder and may turn the volume down. Especially if you wear a hoodie, it will hit the wheel. Also, I haven't figured out how to get chat volume and game volume on separate channels so you can use both volume wheels. Other than that, they work very well.

    I had a headset that was wired that I paid around $70 for. It kept breaking over and over again. Finally best buy told me to pick a better headset and pay the difference. I picked this one and I am NOT disappointed! This headset let's you control the game volume and the chat volume right on the earpiece! It's wireless (if you have a ps4 slim...you'll need an HDMI to optical audio splitter...only minor complaint)....and the battery life is great. Highly recommended.

    I want to start by saying I love these headphones but... there was 2 flaws in my opinion. I want to start this off by stating that the audio quality was very superior for it's price range. I can hear noises that I have never hear when listening to music before. Online is a real treat because I was able to tell physically where people were standing near me in game. No one could sneak up on me because I could hear those footsteps loud and clear. Back to the downside. The fact that it cannot connect via bluetooth without the requirement of a transmitter that is included in the package. The 2nd flaw I believe stems off that transmitter itself. I play videos for many continious hours. Sometimes I leave my game running on the background as I do chores or have to make some runs out the house whatever the case may be I occasionally have to step away from my consoles. After having the headphones running wirelessly for about 4 hours the audio starts to have a static trace behind it. At first it is very subtle but it is noticeable especially if you're like me that pays attention to every little detail. By 4 1/2- 5 hours into continuous use everytime someone would speak the audio would would instantly be heavily overwelmed by static. There is a simple solution to this which is simple remove the transmitter and place it back in the usb slot. No need to turn off or switch any settings. I believe this to be a defect because the quality is superb. Or it could be the flimsy material of the transmitter. Also I'm literally 5 feet away from my transmitter with no electronics or wireless electronics standing between the transmitter and the headphones. It is supposed to run for 15 hours of continious use and it has a very long range of wireless which is true i walked into every obscure crevice of my apartment and the quality remained true regardless of my position. I hope this helps. I also really think my headset is defective or at least the transmitter is.

    You get what you paid for. This is not the best but yet a good headset to start with if you're a competitor gamer. Only thing I see wrong with it would be the super human hearing option. When enabled, you hear no difference. In my opinion, it's a useless option if it does nothing. If you want a good headset with the super human hearing, you should check out the TurtleBeach PX24. I have that one too and the super human hearing either doubles or triples the volume.

    The features of this headset start to edge up against more premium priced competition, but seriously best other headsets among a similar price point. Decent build quality, very easy setup, excellent battery life and rich immersive sound are its pillars of strength. If you're looking for the best bang for your buck gaming headset in the sub $100 category then look no further, the Turtle Beach Ear Force Stealth 520 takes the cake at Best Buy.

    These headphones have pretty good sound and the buttons to control it are easy to reach after you memorize where they are. I would give 5 star rating if the volume dial was in the front of the ear cup instead of the rear like it is. When you are laying back and resting your head on a cushion or pillow, you can easily turn the knob accidentally and have the volume go either really far up or down. Is a startling thing to have happen.

    As far as sound goes, this headset is great. Good bass and treble. Volume is not an issue. The super human hearing I don't use as much as it makes the headset sound flat. Setup was easy (on the PS4 Pro). Can't comment on microphone since I haven't used it. My only complaint is that the headset fits tight. Have to break it in or get used to my head being squished.

    I don't have a large head but the headphones are tight compared to other headphones. To compare I would say Turtle beach VR headphones and the most comfortable, then the Beats Studio are medium tight and these are the tightest. It's not uncomfortable after playing a few hours, but you won't be if you wear glasses. They are light weight, provide great sound, mic is clear.

    Got these as gifts for our kids who game heavy duty . So far so good! I double checked them for durability as the last ones broke. I vigorously twisted and stretched these things without incident till the husband insisted I quit before I did break them hah! They wear well, and there are no problems with sound quality. Kids use them full time.
