Pros & Cons
Cons
The mic seems to pick up literally everything, even the audio coming out of the headset itself while i’m wearing it, it annoys the other side a lot. The connection to the xbox controller is not very good & finicky.
Highlights
Quality
The sound quality is amazing, comfort (even with glasses) is another outstanding feature.
Overall, the sennheiser's sounded amazing but would leave your ears & head hurting after just 5 mins.
The mic quality seems better than the cloud alpha, but i can't tell with regard to the sound quality.
Price
Bought this headset as it was on sale, it was a steal at the price i bought it for.
Competitiveness
10yr old got these with his bday money for his xbox s series.
They are lightweight, but a bit heavier than their lower models.
My kid plays a lot of fortnite, he says he can hear footsteps his friends can't.
