My son uses these gaming headphones for gaming. They are comfortably padded all over, he can easily wear them for hours. The volume control and power button are on a very long cable that gives the user some wiggle room for distance and movement. The microphone is flexible and picks up the sound perfectly. It comes with an optional adapter that allows a variety of connection options for your setup. My husband set it up so I don't quite understand that part but I tested it and listened to the sound and it's impressive for the money. My son loves that they look lightweight and stylish.
