Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

Considering its price, features, and relative fragility, I give this headset a 4.8 out of 5 stars. The Game-DAC system, with its ridiculously simple and quick setup, is fascinating.

Pros

Transferred from Arctis 5, now with an emphasis on accuracy. 1) The microphone now has the same extensive, user-customizable backlighting as the rest of the device (picture included): a little improvement, but a welcome one all the same. 2) They don't push on your head, can be adjusted to the perfect fit with minimal effort, have a removable strap and "ear caps," and, if I'm not incorrect, a fan of this can even purchase their own unique set in the online fashion boutique. Thirdly, we made the mute button and volume up wheel bigger; you're welcome; they're now much more user-friendly. 4) An efficient Game-DAC setup that allows for comprehensive customization outside of the confines of the computer's configuration menu. We thought of making a regular hard wire here, so the wire is no longer folded into a tube.

Cons

1) The microphone is excellent (although it doesn't differ at all from the 5th edition, because I compared them), but the unusual absence of active noise reduction since the previous version is really perplexing. 2) I didn't believe about the fragility of this left cup (see photo 2), which many people write about, but damn it, I treated them carefully, didn't throw, didn't throw, carefully removed, but it's still a little staggers a little, I think in a year, as in the pictures in the reviews, it will fall off, ahaha, well, really, a very flimsy attachment of a cup with an arc, nonsense of course. For this reason (3), the cost is usually excessive for the level of construction; however, if it is very dependable, that is a different story!
