Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Surround sound (even though it's not really surround sound since it's using the same speakers) is pretty effective. Good sound quality on game and in meetings.

Best bang for buck with these headphones. First time owning a pair of gaming headset and so far so good. If you can live with that, then this headset is amazing.

Sounds is top notch, mic is great aswell. The mute button is on the side and is easy to accidentally hit. One drawback is the mic quality doesn't seem to be great.

Detachable (and replaceable) cords are very nice. I love the touch with the pouch for the headset to keep everything neat and tidy. The only complaint i have is that the braided cable tangles a lot.

Cons

Ticking noise coming out of the left ear after 1 month of usage and microphone constantly disconnecting. I have to unplug and plug the headphones back in for the microphone to work again.

The sound quality is absolutely atrocious. There's zero bass whatsoever and the mids and treble sound absolutely horrid. The mic also sounds awful to whoever has the displeasure to be on voice comms with you. Very sour experience.

Headset is not worth 100 and not worth 10bucks. The mic comes and goes and volume varies wildly on its own. My 50$ turtle beach headset sounds noticeably better in sound quality and significantly better in microphone quality.

But be sure to go to hyperx website and download their software.

At first glance, the headsets sounded very muffled and i was surprised they sounded so bad compared to my other set of hyperx cloud ii.
