Pros

Afterglow universal wireless headset has a mute button, a real cool design, a master volume control on the side along with a game/chat balance control. Has usb and audio jack cords(also has a cord for xbox) wireless is excellent mic works smoothly wit...  Read More

Over-the-ear design sufficiently drowns out everything else and lets me enjoy music to its fullest. If you're a gamer who likes his game loud and all-consuming, you'll love this headset too.



Cons

The afterglow universal headset is uncomfortable, it has constant connection issues to the transmitter even if you're right in front of the transmitter, and occasionally just stops working mid use. Another issue is the type of microusb it uses to char...  Read More

I am irritated it broke after one year. Purchased in nov 2012, just got around to tossing it out today. The design is just too *. It has 7 large cracks through the plastic on the top from a single year of usage.

The headset is very uncomfortable to wear. It's not adjustable, so the plastic part is really tight. The area around my ears, where my glasses sit, begins to hurt. Its simply uncomfortable and feels heavy on my head.

Quality


My turtle beach headset quit working out of nowhere after only five months these are much higher quality in sound and very easy to use!


Best headphones that light uphad it for two years so far


The sound these pair of headphones make trumps any sound system i've experienced, even up to this point.


--if the headset is left on (again, in wireless mode) for longer than 2hrs, volume control becomes unresponsive.

Price


A+ product, especially for the price alone.


I got them when they were $100, and if they happen to break, i'd buy another pair in a heartbeat.

Packaging/appearance


Came with everything needed to hook up.

Competitiveness


Last long on a full charge, sound is great in comparison to most others.


I'd actually buy another pair without much hesitation, even if they'd only last a year.
