Everything you need
|Posted .Pros mentioned:Comfy, Mic, Sound qualityCons mentioned:Left sideAfter countless hours reviewing headsets in the $60-120 range I was left lost with what seemed like no real option. Then I came across these bad boys for $40 and it was game on. Sound is crisp, footsteps and gunshots are easily detectable directionally, they are comfortable and the removable microphone is the cherry on top. Look no further for your headset. P.S. since purchasing these I have had FOUR friends go out on my recommendation to buy the same pair (albeit they all bought white when I got black). They are all thrilled with them still, and it’s been about a month.
