The microphone on these things is phenomenal! My partner can be hacking thier lungs out from taking a giant bong rip, and my friends can’t hear him on discord at all. And this is living in a studio less than 360 square feet. So we are fairly close to each other. So noise cancellation was key. I absolutely love the sound on the headphones. Be it listening to music with the eq set to it’s setting, and then seamlessly switch to my phone, and pull out my controller that holds my phone, and play call of duty mobile with on point accuracy because if it’s custom eq settings. And the connectivity between switching from my pc to my phone has been fairly flawless. I would say what ever issue I had was user error. I have an iPhone 12 and it’s compatible with iOS and has a great app for the phone. For what I paid for these headphones it was a steal! Totality worth the money. For the mic alone it’s worth it. The rest is just icing on the cake. Read more

Great sound but i can still hear the ambient sounds in my home and when someone is talking to me in the room. I love getting to play my game and not be unaware of my surroundings. The mike is super good too I love the lightweight designed too. Read more

Update (October 2025): So finally was able to get these to work on the switch. I had to use another app to temporarily have a virtual windows machine. Installed the SteelSeries windows app and then was able to update the headphones. After the update they do work on the switch. Leaving it a one star cause these should have worked out of the box. Once they were working tho… best gaming headphones for the money. The mic alone on them out does other headsets my friends use that cost much more than these do. Original review: This does not work with the Nintendo Switch 2. Plugging in the dongle the Switch recognizes the microphone but not output audio. This is not mentioned anywhere on their site or on this listing. These were released after the switch 2 and the product information says it works with switch. It does not work with the switch. The app is cool, not many console focused headphones allow for adjustment through an app rather than requiring to hook the headset up to a Windows computer. HOWEVER, when you try to use the app to customize the EQ there is a pop-up that says you have to do it on a computer. Okay, that is a bummer, but they have a MAC version of their software, great. Downloaded the MAC version of the software and it has tabs to see what's on sale, to enter give aways, and then their "Engine" (used to modify the EQ). ...The headphones won't connect. They actually connect to my Mac, but they will not connect to the SteelSeries Engine software. Turns out while the app was created for Apple Silicon, the Engine part does not work with MACs running Apple Silicon. There's a help article I got to from within the app that says their engineers are working on the issue. The M1 chip has been out for 4 years... FOUR Years.... no one at SteelSeries is working on this if this has been broken for 4 years. I am so disappointed. I was looking forward to using these with my switch and playstation. Read more

Purchased these for around $60, and for that price they're worthy. I wouldn't pay much more for them. Out of the box, I have mixed feels about the sound. Game audio and voice chat is very clear, but for music the mix sounds a bit tinny if that makes sense. I ended up using the SteelSeries GG app to turn up the low-mids and bass a little bit and that made the soundstage feel a lot fuller, so problem mostly solved. The app was frustrating at first, but didn't give me issues after set up. That set up just took longer than it should've because my PC didn't recognize the mic until after a restart. The headset is pretty comfortable for me, but I can see the fabric material on the ear pads potentially irritating someone with more sensitive skin. I might prefer if it were a pleather. Overall, the audio quality is satisfactory and the mic sounds about how you'd expect if not slightly better. The app is a hassle but the headset itself is no-nonsense. Read more

This is the 3rd SteelSeries headset I have bought in the last 10 years for my use, I work remotely and am constantly in calls, and I game as well, the batteries last for days, recharge quickly, even with as much as I use them I don't have to go without because they are charging. Very comfortable, great mic quality, excellent noise cancelling. We live near a military base and there are constantly helicopters and tons of other noise, but my clients and clan mates would never know it. Works well via 2.4 and Bluetooth with linux/windows/PS4/5 and the ear pads aren't showing any sign of wear. Read more

the sound quality of this headset was surprisingly good, albeit a little bright, but that can be fixed with EQ. bluetooth quality was great. but at least for me, 2.4ghz mode was very buggy, i experienced compression on lower volumes, and random distortion, which was not present on bluetooth. ended up returning them due to the issues after contacting support for help Read more
