Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent headset for the money

The headset is a lot bigger than I expected but it never feels heavy or gives me a headache to wear. Rather, it sits so loosely on my head that I feel like it's about to fly; you have to get used to this feeling. Sound quality is pretty decent, but a far cry from what I get from my Bose or Sony wireless noise-cancelling headphones. It doesn't sound distorted, but it doesn't sound that "full" either. Noise isolation is practically non-existent; they sound like open cup headphones (not necessarily a bad thing, my partner can use them to get my attention where she couldn't before). My wireless headphones have omnidirectional mics, so my friends can hear every button press over Discord (and pestered me until I ordered it). The microphone in this set only picks up my voice when there is background noise. As a bonus, it retracts almost entirely into the left earcup. I suppose something is less likely to get stuck if you remove it. Materials are a nice mix of metal and hard plastic, braided cords, and gel and foam padding on top and around the ears. I feel like they used the right stuff in the right places. I can't confirm if the spatial audio features work or not as I used Dolby Atmos for headphones (which works great) and don't use the built in feature.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Zero
