This is an amazing product. I’ve had at least a dozen headsets in my time, and this one is probably the best one i have ever bought. You get every single cent out of your money. The headset itself is SUPER light and doesn’t deathgrip your head, but at the same time it’s made with excellent materials so you know it’s going to last. Also, the mic is detatchable, which means you can take it off and plug the headset into your console controller or even your phone, and use it as a pair of headphones to listen to music when away from your PC. The cord for this is like 2 1/2 feet long? It’s a perfect length, but when you want to plug it into your PC, you insert the jack into the noise-control device that most headsets have and turns into a super long cord for your PC. Sound quality is amazing. It comes with a 7.1 surround sound option on the little sound control device so it’s super easy to go from regular to 7.1 surround sound. The mic, according to my friends, sounds amazing. It’s a much bigger improvement over what i had before. Much more clear. The Noise-cancelling from 3rd party sounds is 4/5. But for me it’s technically a 5/5 because i don’t like my headset completely blocking out stuff; i like to be able to hear if someone is talking to me, or anything other important, but it’s still very good at blocking out those sounds. If you want a headset where you can’t hear anything at all outside of the headset, this won’t be the headset for you. Sitting on my head, it’s very comfortable. I could wear this for hours on end and forget it’s on my head. Very snug. Extremely happy with my purchase! Would recommend.Read more

As the title says, this headset was almost a beast. The audio mixed with the 7.1 surround sound made me feel like I was in the game. The volume control panel is super convenient and adjusts to perfection. HOWEVER, this microphone itself is the deal breaker. It was compared by my discord friends to a radio or drive thru audio. Almost too embarrassing to use , this mic was almost the perfect bundle. I’ve tried everything in my settings and adjustments to sound crisp and clear but I guess that was not an option. For a person that plays alone I would recommend but other than that , I would have to suggest to spend a little bit more.Read more

I purchased this headset for use at work. I do a fair amount of calls/meetings via Teams. I looked specifically for over-the-ear headsets to minimize discomfort. On-ear headsets would always cause some discomfort/soreness for me. The ear pads on this headset are surprisingly comfortable. They sound great (though my uses are mainly meetings with the occasional Pandora track or Youtube video). What I’m really happy with is the microphone. I did some quality checks and found the microphone to be VERY clear, my voice on the receiving end sounds really good. So far, i’m quite pleased with my purchase! (at this point, I have only used the headset with my laptop, connected via 3.5mm jack. The cable is adequate for my needs, but I can see how some people might consider it to be too short. I haven’t used the included 3.5mm to USB cable with in-line controls)Read more

Has to be the best headset I’ve owned. It is quality made despite how light it is and is very comfortable to wear. Doesn’t feel like it’s squeezing my head at all. Not only that, the sound quality is awesome especially the 7.1 surround sound which can be easily switched on with the control box on the cord. I have tried the mic and it is pretty decent. Highly recommend this gaming headset.Read more

After switching from a Rig 400XL, I felt as if I was in a brand new world. I’ve never used serious noise cancelling headphones before. Every pair of headphones I’ve ever used doesn’t affect the sound around me. When I first used these, I was in awe at just how good the noise cancellation was. The sound quality is amazing. When I play games, I can hear many things that the average player cannot hear. The diversity between volume control and headset modes is also amazing. I’ve never used a headset as good as this one. Truly amazing.Read more

Best Headset I’ve bought. This thing us absolutely amazing. The sound is Crystal Clear and my buddies say that the mic sounds amazing. Only thing is recommend to the makers is putting a mute and volume button and such for console players. I have to go into the quick menu to mute and turn up and down. The headset in PC is Phenomenal. I watched Green Lantern with the 7.1 Surround sound enabled and was blown away. I’ve never had this feature before, especially in such a cheap headset. The build for the headset is pretty good as well. I love that the headset ear cuffs go around the ears and not on them. There isn’t much noise cancelation normally but with the 7.1 surround, I didn’t hear a thing. Would recommend to gamers on a budget!Read more

Bought these after trying cheaper on-the-ear headphones and being unhappy with them crushing/hurting my ears after a few hours. These bad boys don’t hurt my ears even if I wear them all day. A nice feature is you can pop out the microphone boom, which I do when I’m watching TV. The cord is also nice and long.Read more

I won’t write review but I will give tips to get most out of it. Buy a software if you use it in PC. It will uplift your audio by multifold. 1) Dolby Access 2) DTS Sound Unbound Hear the magic! Review based on usage of 5-6 months! I’ll be straightforward here so keep reading. 1.Footsteps are very clear and there is no issue. 2. Surround is good ( It reaches mind-blowing level if used with any above mentioned software) 3. 7.1 is joke when it comes to gaming, it createa unnecessary distortion. Don’t use it while gaming. In fact Virtual 7.1 is not useful at all. It seems more of trick than actual advantage. 4. Good thing is that you are getting very very long cable if using USB. 5. It is comfortable headphone for sure. 6. Audio is deep and clear. Thumping exists and totally depends upon volume level of your software and PC. 7. General Caution not related to this headphone. It is just for your kind reminder : Respect your ears, eyes or neck or back etc. Whenever it feels like headache, eye strain or uncomfortable feeling get up and walk or at least 30 minutes. Your body is the most valuable thing in this world. Never ever overuse it. Gamers also please make sure follow right posture. Do not take it granted. All the best. Enjoy!Read more

So I was so skeptical about the product at start that for weeks I reasearched which product should be best. I have gone through razer,corsair and hyperx all list of products in headphones section and the I stopped on this one because it’s in budget,durable and have all the features one should expect from a gaming headphone. This has the option to connect to 3.5mm jack as well as usb option for enabling 7.1 experience with all controls. The virtual surround sound is good in this one and the treble is almost correct to level listening music. However the bass in good enough and you can make it better with a 3rd party software. I use it for games like Warzone and Pubg PC with 7.1 enabled and I can hear the footsteps direction through surround sound. I use it for team meetings and game voice chat, there is no loopback and voice is crystal clear to listener with or without usb. This is also durable as I dropped it accidentally one time on floor and it works great even after than. The mic is cardioid so only frontal voice will pass through and any other voice will be suppressed to an extent that listener will not hear noises. I hope anyone searching through a list of headphones in budget should go for these as I razer is not durable and corsair is not upto that quality.Read more

Ya hacÃa un tiempo que querÃa comprar unos HyperX. Yo en lo particular he usado los Xcloud 2 de un amigo (que eran los que planeaba comprar) pero ahora que salieron estos no pude evitar cambiar por las siguientes razones: 1.- Tienen exactamente la misma tecnologÃa de audio y construcción de los cloud 2 que se han destacado en el mercado por su durabilidad y calidad de sonido. 2.- El 7.1, aunque muy criticado por muchas personas, lo he encontrado muy eficaz en juegos como Fortnite y Warzone 3.- Excelentes para escuchar música clásica, ya que al ser de gaming realzan los bajos y se escucha más parecido a lo que sucede en una sala de concierto que a las pistas digitales donde le bajan el volumen a los bajos. 4.- Siendo tan parecidos a los Cloud 2 pero a un 25% menos en el costo son una opción muy viable si no te interesa tener un par extra de colchoncillos para los oidos. Lo único que puedo destacar que es muuy regular es el micro, si bien cumple su función de comunicación, no es tu opción completa si quieres hacer streams o podcast, pero pues en cualquier caso, ningunos audifonos te darán esa ventaja, tendrás que invertir en un micro decente como un blue yeti (el cual también les recomiendo) Yo creo que subiré alguna cosa extra al respecto en Youtube en “La Curiosidad No Mató al gato” por si tienen algunas dudas o intrigas extras sobre este producto tan nuevoRead more

Pague 1139 pesos en oferta por ellos y para lo que ofrecen esta bien, pero si los hubiera comprado a precio normal ya no esta tan bien, llevo 2 semanas usandolos y yo los queria para XBox, si bien el producto no es malo, el sonido en XBox deja que desear ya que el sonido con el 100% de volumen se escucha entre normal y bajo, la verdad es que estos son mas para PC, aunque si los puedes conectar donde sea ya que traen conector 3.5mm lo mejor es usarlos en PC donde si se les saca mayor provecho a sus bondades como el 7.1 y el sonido se escucha mas fuerte mas que en consolas, en general los sonidos son claros y se escuchan bien pero no sientes esa inmersion en el videojuego, el microfono esta mas que decente y no creo que tengas problemas con el aparte que me gusta que se puede quitar o moverlo en la posición que tu quieras, algo malo que si les vi es que no son tan comodos como se ven pero tampoco son del todo incomodos, cada cierto tiempo tendras que ajustarlos para liberar un poco de presion en las orejas (razon por la cual no son buena opcion para escuchar musica aunque si puedes hacerlo), creo que si los agarran en oferta estan bien y para empezar en el mundo de los headsets son buena opcion, por cierto si te preguntas si se escuchan cosas como los pasos cuando se aproxima un enemigo la respuesta es si si se escucha. Como dato adicional activar el “7.1” funciona en PC sin problemas, tambien funciona si los conectas directo por usb a la consola PS4 y puedes activar el “7.1” para que se escuche mejor, por desgracia en XBox no funciona conectandolo directamente por usb a la consola, puedes usar el 3.5 audio y usarlo en el control pero no me gusta, entonces la solucion que encontre para usarlo en XBox con “7.1” es conectarlos a la PC y conectar mi XBox con la aplicacion de XBox en Windows10 para juego remoto y entonces si que puedes escuchar el sonido del XBox y el chat con mucho mejor calidad.Read more

The media could not be loaded. Like I said in the video, the actual part that goes around your ears on the outside does feel a bit cheap. It is VERY lightweight. I’ve worn it almost all day and I haven’t had a headache or anything. When I put it around my neck, it does kinda choke me lol. The microphone sounded a lot better than what I expected. The sound quality for regular music was okay. Nothing special. I did test it for gaming today also and it worked pretty well. I am still debatinging if I should keep itRead more

My headphones DID NOT come with the advanced audio control box that plugs in via USB to the pc. I’m not sure if this was an older style as it came with a split prong style cable that goes into a mic and headphone port separately.Read more
