A really necessary purchase, glad I found this product.

The first "expensive" headphones that I decided to purchase and immediately try the wireless option. The main tasks are music (not for an audiophile) and shooters once or twice a week. I also wanted the Corsair headset, and was ready to put up with possible shortcomings (which, apart from marriage, have not yet been discovered). From the point of view of sound, it copes well with its tasks, with a slight twist of the equalizer, it does perfectly well. Over the year, a little (literally in 2 small places, in places where the temples of the glasses touched) the ear pads peeled off, it does not spoil the view at all, and does not interfere. The main drawback, apparently more marriage.

Pros

1. Very comfortable, with good sound insulation. The head does not get tired even after a day. 2. Removable microphone, which is worn only when needed, and does not interfere with the rest of the time. 3. Although they look like "game" ones, they are quite strict, it's not a shame to bring such ears as working ears, for example, to the office. 4. Adjusting the position of the bowl for almost any head size, perhaps 8-12 year old gamers with a small head will be dissatisfied. 5. Wireless sound. After inexpensive BT ears, through a BT adapter, with interference, and signal delay, here the signal quality and the absence of delays are simply the height of bliss. 6. At the beginning, the battery charge was enough for almost the whole day, it was quite possible to charge it once a day, and use it until the next morning. I had to charge the maximum in the morning and in the evening, despite the fact that I work for a PC for 10-12 hours, and sometimes I want to play even in the evening.

Cons

1. The main jamb, a year later, the battery stopped charging. Initially, it was charged at 92-95-98%%, and kept quite adequately, after 10 months, charging began to reach only up to 70-80%%, and the battery life fell accordingly. At some point, the battery stopped taking a charge at all, so at the moment I passed these ears under warranty. 2. More situational, but still. As it turned out, wireless is not as convenient as we would like, and in the case of a PC, it does not pay off so much. I did not find any particularly great advantages associated with the fact that the headphones are wireless. This is best shown if you play the game, lounging in a chair, at a distance of a couple of meters from the monitor, but even so, if they just had a long wire, there would not be much difference. 3. In the conditions of an ordinary apartment in a panel high-rise building, the signal from the transmitter is already lost at a distance of 4-5m, if you just go behind the wall, so you don’t really have to walk around the house in them. 4. In the heat, if you shave baldly, it is somewhat uncomfortable to sit in these headphones for a long time, the scalp sweats at the point where the headband and ear pads touch. Solved by air conditioning in the room.
