amazing headset but has its flaws
11 of 15 found this helpful PROS
Sound Quality - Very good, I used the customization program on my computer and adjusted the EQ just how I like it, lots of bass, after cranking this up to full volume I didn't want to turn it down, this fealt like a subwoofer on my head! With clarity as well.
Looks - Amazing, also with the program comes the LED lighting features, which you can save settings and customize between loads of colors for optimal coolness!
Customization - Very good, being able to change sounds, looks, and button mapping was a definite plus in my book.
Dual capability - VERY easy to stream music from anything USB powered audio output port. Just plug in and listen.
Long range! I walked half way across my house before sound started to fade from the signal.
Features are cool as well, I like that when you flip up the mic it automatically mutes.
CONS
These are noise cancelling. (could be a pro but I prefer to hear everything around me and my audio)
They feel a little bulky and on the heavier side of other headsets I've used.
Recharge pack :( . And only last 8-10 hours depending on how you have your LEDs set up. Im a fan of rechargeable AA's because of my prolonged gaming sessions, when one set dies, just swap out quickly to the other set. With this headset comes a long charging cable so if you run out of life you are now wired to the console. Defeating the purpose of "wireless" capabilities.
Also this is not COMPLETELY wireless. For Xbox One and PS4 users you are required to connect your headset to your controller via a cord... if you wish to talk to your friends.
My heads not that big.... and these feel TIGHT. It could be because they are new and need to be broken in, but Im pretty sure that after a few hours of wearing these I will feel like taking them off...
Will edit this review after I test out chat capabilities. One thing I was looking forward to was the voice playback like the turtle beaches have. So you can hear yourself in the headset. Its not noticeable, just makes it sound like you don't even have a headset on, so your not constantly talking too loud when you have your game volume jacked up to 10. I don't believe this headset has that feature from what ive experienced so far, but do not quote me on that as I haven't tested the chat yet.
Price - Not a headset I would personally pay 199.99 for. The wired version is 50 bucks less, and more in my price range for a gaming headset. I was lucky and found the wireless G933's for 150.00 on EBay. But the fact that I can use this headset on my ps4, Xbox One, AND PC, more than make up for it.
OVERALL
Great product for a good price, would recommend to anyone looking for a good multi-platform headset that thrives in sound performance and customization.
