Super comfortable great audio
The most comfortable headset i ever used. Super light weight & flexible. Audio is great and the open back gives a little bit better sound than closed back in my opinion. Audio mixer iOS app is good. Latency is good. Only downsides are wireless to everything EXCEPT xbox (has a wire to the controller) and NO simultaneous audio sources. So no listening to your phone and game audio at the same time. Besides these two things (which are a problem depending on your needs) this headset is amazing, especially for the 2024 inflation prices

Comfortable but the build quality is garbage.
Extremely comfortable headset but the build quality is very poor. Sound is pretty good. I like the open back design. No issues with the software. Mic is good. Here’s the main problem. As you can see in the photo, the entire headset is held together by a cheap piece of sticky tape, which already peeled within the first week of purchasing. That is unacceptable and I will be returning to Best Buy and I don’t think I would ever buy another Turtle Beach headset. The design is great but the build quality is absolutely garbage. I find it offensive that they chose to ruin an otherwise excellent headset by using cheap, poor quality materials.$180 is an insult for how cheaply made this is.

Excellent Open-Back Gaming Headphones.. At A Price
Having had these headphones for over a year, I've been extremely impressed with their build quality and their sound quality. They're punchy and natural, especially for a pair of headphones that won't have you yelling the wearer's name just for their attention. You'd think they would sound airy or quiet compared to closed-back headphones, but you would be mistaken -- these are louder, more comfortable and more refined than the closed-back headphones they replaced. Even after going apples-to-apples with the other products available in the store, I couldn't refute just how good these sounded by comparison. The lack of suction means that I can wear these for far longer without getting sick of feeling them, too... an important quality for a device you intend to wear! These headphones are expensive, but the open-back design is worth the cost, especially if you intend to use them in an environment where nobody will mind the sound leakage. They sound incredibly natural, almost like having a personal surround sound system instead of two speakers mushed up against your eardrums. (And yes, they *do* leak sound. It's an unavoidable consequence of the open-back style and will occur regardless of what open-back headphones you buy.) The microphone sounds great and the variety of features make these an excellent value proposition. Want it wired? It comes standard with a fully detachable 3.5mm cable with in-line volume control. Want it wireless? It either hooks up directly to your devices via bluetooth, or to any computer with USB via the provided dongle. It charges via USB-C, meaning no more digging up your old Micro USBs just for more juice. If you want an open-back pair of gaming headphones rich with features for an expensive but reasonable price, especially in a market where open-back headphones are rare at the consumer level? These are an excellent buy. I would purchase these headphones again.
