- Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2016Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified PurchaseFor the price this headset is great. I use it primarily on my PS4 so I love the fact that it has the 4 prong jack and plugs right into the controller without the need for an additional adapter. Every other headset comes with the two 3 prong plugs and with like a 10 foot cable. That's fine for a PC but for playstation, I don't want a mile of cable on my lap.
I also like that these have 50mm drivers where most others in this price range have 40mm ones. Does that make a difference? I don't know but bigger is better I guess. One thing is that the volume on these are not too loud. I can put them up to 100% and tolerate it easily. I usually keep them around 80% though.
The mic is good. It's flexible and has good sound quality. You could flip it up when your're not using it. You can also flip it completely around so that it comes down the right side of your mouth but then the speakers would be on the wrong side and the game would sound weird.
The earcup pads aren't that comfortable. The foam is a little stiff and the fabric isnt that soft. It's alright though. The headset is very light so you barely notice its on. The whole thing is plastic but if you're careful with it, it should be fine. I also like that the earcups don't swivel. They move a little bit but don't completely turn 90 deg. I have a pair of headphones that do and it's supposed to be for folding them flat (which I don't do) but they just get all twisted when i take them off.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2015Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified PurchaseThis is my second pair of this headset. I bent the plug on the first pair and caused a short when trying to bend it back which caused a lot of static. They get a lot of use but not from gaming. I'd expect they would work great for gaming too but I bought them to use with my phone. They were some of the only 4pole plug over the ear with a boom mic headsets that I could find. I wanted something comfortable to use when talking to my girlfriend in which conversations can last hours. We talk for a bit every night and I didn't want to hold a phone to my ear for that amount of time. I wanted over the ear type for comfort and to help block out background noises. They were going to be used a phone almost exclusively so I wanted something with a 4pole plug. You can buy adapters for all the other gaming headsets out there but I figured why bother with another piece when I didn't have to. As for the boom mic, well I'm a little skeptical of those mics attached to the cord or on the earpiece. I've used various sets like that and they seem to pick up more ambient noises. I figured that gaming headsets had boom mics because they were designed for tow way communication as opposed to a listening device that 'can' be used for two way communication.
They worked so well I ordered another pair when I bent the plug on the first pair. I also ordered a pair for my girlfriend. She often lays down or in bed when we talk at the end of the day. I can always tell because her voice gets muffled and I miss half of what shes saying. I tell her I can't hear her but she insists shes holding the phone correctly. now that she uses this headset i can hear her clearly all the time. I think it's due to the boom mic. Had the mic been in the cord on on the earpiece, it could get covered while laying in bed.
So I highly recommend these for anyone looking for a comfortable headset to wear while communicating for long periods of time on a phone.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2017Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified PurchaseI have had this headset for a while now, and I have to say I am quite fond of it.
Design: The headset has a black housing with subtle red elements that give nice accents to the headset without looking too much like a "gamer-oriented" headset. The earcups allow breathing but fail to block out noises in the background.
Comfort: This is one of the most comfortable headsets I have worn. The swiveling cups and side adjustments make for an easy fit for any head. The top padding helps to reduce the already light pressure applied by the weight of the headset.
Sound quality: Listening to music and watching movies are enjoyable while wearing this headset. Bass is a bit heavy due to the intended gaming market. The cable features a control hub that features a wheel to increase and decrease the volume. Playing Counter Strike: Global Offensive while wearing the headset improved my spatial awareness and allowed me to reach a higher position on the leaderboard. Overall, I would say the audio is better than usual for the price, although a dedicated set of headphones would outperform them.
Microphone: People I have talked to in games and over Discord and Skype have said that the microphone quality outperforms other microphones you could find in a package like this. The mic is adjustable and includes a windscreen to reduce hissing while making "s" sounds. The control hub on the cable features a mute switch for convenience.
Extras: The box also includes a 4-Pole splitter for use with desktops that increases the length of the cable. Also included is a Turtle Beach sticker, if you're into that.
Overall, I have enjoyed using this headset for the duration I've had it. I would recommend this to somebody looking for a inexpensive headset that performs well in games.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2018Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified PurchaseDoes not block any sounds from outside the headphones. Can hear conversations from the same room as if you had no headphones or earphones on. If you are in a quiet room this is fine. If you are rooming with other ppl, you will constantly hear them.

5.0 out of 5 stars What you can expect for the price
Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified PurchaseGood Headphones, work well for pc gaming - you don’t need a splitter for this is your pc has one aux slot. I bought one thinking i would but it works fine with just the one.
For the price they’re great - can hurt if you wear them for too long but otherwise audio is good and mic is too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfette
Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified PurchaseAcquistate su consiglio di un certo "youtuber" si son confermate un ottimo acquisto. Molto più comode delle cuffie con pad in similpelle, stringono il giusto e non sono troppo pesanti. A livello di qualità audio ci siamo, buona profondità e ottima copertura della gamma medio-alta. Il microfono è di buona fattura; l'astina regolabile pare ben fatta, per ora non mi ha dato problemi. In confezione è presente il cavo 2 in 1, necessario per usare il microfono su tablet/smartphone. Consigliate
