I was looking for something practical for my Xbox One. I've tried several different headsets and found them painful after wearing them for an extended period of time. So I decided to see if I could find headphones with volume control and I found them. I use them in the evenings to play games or watch TV on my Xbox One. Connection is usually via a 3.5mm adapter that comes with the headphones. They are very comfortable and have no problem wearing them for hours without pain. Very good purchase, I recommend it to everyone.
