Sound Quality: Accessory

Headphones feel comfortable, fit well on the head but I'm only disappointed with the sound quality, there isn't a good base and the overall sound quality isn't very good. Well. Good budget headphones. And I received an "updated" set that I hadn't seen before I ordered.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • No color required

Great headset - accessory

Arrived in brand new original packaging. It took a little while to get the straps the way I liked them, but they ended up fitting my head. The sound is good, the steps are clear. The noise cancellation is good, I have a keyboard with Cherry mx Blue switches and it's not that loud.

Pros
  • Quick replacement
Cons
  • Upgradeable

sound quality. for pc

I want to say that I researched this headset through Amazon and YouTube from the beginning. I liked what I saw and heard about this headset. I've been told they have excellent sound quality for a console. I have a pair of Cosair Void Pro headphones. I would switch between my pc and ps4, they sound great on my pc but not on my ps4, cosair void pro. So I decided to look for a headset for my PS4 that would sound great with my console because right now my problem is that I haven't immersed myself…

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • some trouble

Works very well: Accessories

I was surprised when I opened the box and found the headphones wrapped in bubble wrap and not in their own box. I didn't know I ordered "REFURBISHED" headphones. I ordered 2 and it's weird because I noticed they both have the same scuffs in the same spot. Aside from my error and abrasion, the headphones worked very well. The quality of the microphone works much better than I expected and the sound quality is pretty decent. My husband just prefers more bass, but other than that it works pretty…

Pros
  • Many fit
Cons
  • Some little things

Not worth $$ per PC

So I bought these thinking they would be good. However, the comfort is amazing, I can't lie about that for sure, and the noise cancellation works like any other headset, so that's a good thing too. The sound isn't very good, probably because of the repair, but it crackles and you can't turn it up louder than usual, dunno, but you can tell it's a bit worn with the audio part. The amount I paid would probably be for the comfort feel, other than that it's not an expensive trail for this type of…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Empty

IDK what should I think lol.

I received this headset in the mail the day after purchase with Prime, that was sick but when I opened the package the headset was just in the box with no packaging and no cable. The good thing is that it doesn't use a proprietary charging cable so at least I was able to charge it via micro USB and I was just planning to use this headset on my bluetooth laptop so I don't need a proprietary cable. I haven't plugged it in yet, so I'm not sure how the sound is, but I've heard the sound settings…

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • I won't say anything

CONFUSING AND DIFFICULT!

If I could give ZERO stars I would because this POS doesn't cost a penny (not to mention the $73.00 I paid for it). Here's a summary of what I found wrong * CONFUSED AND COMPLICATED setup * User manual shows ONLY ANDROID & NINTENDO SWITCH setup configuration (NOT XBOX OR PS4) * DO NOT connect connectors to microphone element (which in itself is a joke as it's more like a regular Bluetooth device looks like a real microphone element). would expect from a headset) * TOO MANY CABLES (The…

  • Always liked

Amazing headset at a great price

Phenomenal headset at a fantastic price I wasn't aware that this product had a refurbishment before it opened, maybe because I was in the middle of an order or because of the very long title Although the headphones are great are there is a slight scuff with a few scratches on the plastic which after repair who cares goes on my head while playing xbox the sound quality is amazing every game i have played felt to it , like I'm sitting in a giant movie theater with sound at maximum, the only…

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Compatibility
