    Seriously one of the worst products I’ve ever bought. It literally broke within an hour of using, just completely stopped working. When I tried unplugging the thing to see what was wrong with it the part that goes into the controller immediately snapped into half. I’m baffled by how bestbuy sells such a terrible product

    Went with this one so my 11 year old would still be able to hear what is going on around him as opposed to having both ears covered. Works perfectly. He loves it.

    I thought this item might have been sub-par, but it's actually really well made and the sound is really clear. Turtle Beach brand is reliable and I would buy their products again!

    I bought his headset because I needed an emergency headset for gaming, it hurts the side of your head and squeezes your whole head in general, not the greatest, I’d recommend putting down a little more money for a more comfortable headset

    The headphones/mic are good but not the best, if you are a very competitive gamer, these are not the headphones for you.
