Pros & Cons
Pros
The sound and mic are superb quality for the price range. Mute indicator light on the mic makes it easy to know if i'm muted.
Icue control software had bugs (which i was able to resolve) the headphones have some minor cons but are overall very good. You need to download 3rd-party software in order to get the full experience. The headset in functionally is a superior one.
Cons
Should have just got a semi-disposable logitech. Buyer beware. I am an adult and properly care for my gear, but these things are literally falling apart in less than 2 years of usage.
The padding on the top is not great, and the fabric is loose. The surround sound on these is a joke. Support website is full of instructions for work-arounds or remedies, but a customer should not have to suffer these flaws.
Software is limited, you have 5 eq profiles, a few lighting effects. Windows 10 does not see these as surround capable headphones, just stereo.
The earphones never feel like they’re on properly and do not ‘hang on’ to my head at all. Any movement will cause them to slide around on my head. The headset is loose on my average-female head - both in height and width - which means the ear cups han... Read More
Highlights
Quality
Oh my gosh literally the best headset i ever bought super comfy and super great in sound quality and noise cancellation
The sound quality was high and the set fit comfortably and was easily adjustable.
At about 2 1/2 years, the cable cracked, which then led to shocks when it touched my collarbone.
Dolby converter adaptor dongle thing is at usb plug-in then a jack plugs into that and then hard wired into headphones' left bottom.
Price
I got these when they were on sale for very cheap and have loved them for so long.
I feel like i got a good deal.
I have been in the market for a decent pair of headphones for a while now and i was not willing to go above $50 if i could help it.
Bought for 65 not worth 80-90 but great over-all.
Competitiveness
Would not hook up to xbox all of that was not identified prior to purchase
I now know that it would've been better to get the elite, however the pro is still just fine.
While the icue software does make the headset do a lot more, you don't actually need it.

Theres one issue with fit
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
They dont adjust small enough for our heads mine and my adult sons so the earpieces sit on our ears rather than being supported by the headband portion
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Because of this if he tips his head down or up the headset falls off or falls down over his eyes
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I sometimes wore the headset over a padded hair headband to keep it off my ears
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Or at least a way to know before buying that it wont adjust small enough a measurement that we can do for instance
