Relatively inexpensive, fairly comfortable,
Lackluster microphone quality, not as convenient to use
All in all, we didn't find anything majorly wrong with this headset and it gets the job done. However, it is incredibly far from being one of our favorites. It might be worth considering if you can find it deeply discounted, but otherwise, there are far b...

Attractive price point, Sharp, understated design, Intuitive volume/mute controls, Good sound (after equalizer optimizations)
Not ideal for large heads, Exaggerated lows and highs by default

Good value, Excellent build quality, Multi-platform compatible, Comfortable for hours of gaming
Audio performance is better with an EQ, Microphone does not sound very natural
