Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The headset also has a retractable microphone that pulls out of the side. Retractable mic is a nice touch, better than some models which let you unscrew them entirely.

It's not the best i've heard but it does have nice bass and the treble isn't tinny. The sound is pure and crisp and clear the microphone is there for easy use and tucks away just as smoothly.

These headphones are by far the best sound of any headphones my husband and i have tried in the last 2 decades. Like most headphones these days, they seem to be engineered to deliver more low-end bass response. They're not bad but i wish i would have ...  Read More

Its a great but for the price.


I would recommend them for the price range.

Shipping


Prior to receiving these, i had received my first pair(turtle beach) back in september.

Packaging/appearance


They are extremely well packaged so i would be surprised if anyone receives damaged headsets.


Came well packaged and had all the accessories needed right out of the box.


Inside the box are the headphones themselves which come protected in a cardboard molded packaging, a small packet containing in...  Read More


The headphones themselves, once out the packaging, look very plasticy however the build quality on them appears to be very good.

Competitiveness


I went ahead and tested this pair against some demo pairs in a best buy recently, and i honestly prefer these over beats, sennh...  Read More


Price is probably a bit steep, but i think it's the best xbox one specific headset in the price range.


I am not an avid gamer and am not used to wearing headsets for extended periods, so this might not be an issue for more hardcor...  Read More


Most people probably expect this, but the glow is only for when it's connected to the xbox one.

    I could easily distinctly hear that some things were intended to be on the left or right as youd expect with a gaming headset
