Good looking product, decent performance
When I first received this product I thought, wow, looks decent. After opening I seen it was wired which disappointed me immediately. After putting it together as the microphone is detacheable. I plugged it into my PS4. No problems with connecting and setting up for the game volume and chat to be on the headset. I found the sound quality average, and the microphone according to my friend was muffled. To wear the headset is ok. But after 30 minutes it became uncomfortable. I wouldn’t recommend

Uncomfortable for long use
It has little adjustability and chafes my ears when wearing them for a long time. The connection, while strange nowadays, allows you to use the headset with multiple devices. The headset as default has a single jack for both mic and speakers, like you see with consoles and mobiles, but the extension cable divides it into two. The headset is reasonably attractive for the price but the quality of material is poor. The mic is rigid and leaves an unpleasant hole when removed. I regret the purchase.

High quality sound
When I received my delivery I thought the packaging looked really good quality and would look fantastic if buying as a gift. The headset itself also looked high quality and I was looking forward to testing the sound. The set up was really simple for our PS4 and after asking many of my online friends, they also said the sound was crystal clear. I could hear all of the sounds very well without crackling or echo. I’ve tried a lot of headsets out and this is definitely one of the best!

Well made and comfortable
These headphones come very well packaged and upon unpacking have a premium feel. Although these are relatively cheap the sound quality is crisp and the over ear headphones sit comfortably even when wearing glasses. The microphone can be detached so the headset can be used to listen to music. The 2.5mm jack is compatible with pc,ps4 and Xbox one, the lead is quite short but long enough to give you enough movement when plugged into a ps4 pad. Highly recommended. Steve.

Great design but lacks sound and build quality
Looks amazing on the picture and inside the box Disappointed with the following : - Build quality (material, connector and cabling ) - Earpieces wont rotate ( makes it very uncomfortable to adjust/wear) - Sound quality - Microphone quality ( Very poor .Capbility of disconnecting seems great but build quality mentioned means the microphone will keep coming loose eventually. ) Spend bit more and buy a higher models from Gioteck as they did amazing job adressing all these issues.

Very comfortable and great sound quality
Pros: ▪The Headset is very comfortable and has a nice sleek design with adjustable size. ▪The audio quality is great and very clear. Cons: ▪Headset creeks when moving head ▪mic is not adjustable, can stick into your face when you put the headset around your neck and mic quality is apparently lacking when others hear you through it and there can be feedback played through it from your own device. ▪cable can feel a bit flimsy and feels like it could damage easily.

Overall great sound quality
This is a great gaming headset. It has an adjustable headband which is good to get the exact positioning needed & padded ear speakers that makes it feel really light & comfortable to wear. It has an extremely sharp sound quality too. The only issue is intermittent crackling when adjusting the sound, but overall its a great gaming headset.. Full user instructions included together with PC cable. Used with Xbox and has very impressive battery life before it needs recharging.

Good Looking Gaming Headset
This gaming headset comes well packaged and presented. It comes with a detachable microphone which allows for use as an in-game audio enhancer and/or a tool for talking to people online, however being detachable it could get damaged or lost so care should be taken with it. The headset has good sound quality and a good level of volume both voice and in-game audio, it is easy to fit and comfortable to wear. The instructions are concise and easy to follow.

Excellent value and overall good performance
These are very comfortable to wear and I find I get a very good seal around my ears. This makes for good blockage of extraneous sounds. The sound quality is good, rather than excellent. But for the price point it is about as good as you are likely to get.The microphone plugs in to the left side so they can be used with or without this. The cable is a reasonable length but could ideally be longer. So, the overall experience is good.

Great value, versatile headset.
I found these very comfortable to wear over longer game sessions and they held in place without being tight even when tilting my head forward. Sound was good and the mic clear. The only slight niggle I have is the mic is fixed rather than able to fold up which makes it take up more room when you want to tidy them away. You can pull it out each time, but I think that risks making a loose connection and of course misplacing it.

Great gaming headset
I was impressed with the look of the headset it’s sleek,trendy and very lightweight. There very comfortable to wear and snug on the ears.The headband is adjustable to suit a younger child or an adult. The mic is removeable but not very flexible. I would probably say that this headset is suited more to a younger child or teenager because the clarity is not as clear as what you would find on a 7.1 surround sound headset.

value for money
so, need a set of gaming headphones asap. Got the HC-2 Xbox ones purely based on price, not the absolute cheapest, no where near the most expensive. Sound is decent, easy to connect, Mic seems okay only niggle is the comfort. I have a massive melon head, while they do fit they start to get a little uncomfortable after an hour plus gaming/chatting. However, for this price what more can you ask for?? would i buy again? yes!

feels very cheap and plastic
The first thing coming from a pair of steel series head phones these head phones feel really cheap and plastic, the only advantage of that is they are very light and easy to wear. The volume control feels like it won't last long. The main thing about head phones is sound quality and it is only just ok on these head phones.The microphone is ok but other people have said I sound a bit muffled and not clear.

Suprisingly comfortable and good sound quality
Wanted a "reasonably" priced headset for my boys XBOX. These proved good quality for a mid-range price. Comfortable on the ears and the sound is good. The ear parts don't rotate like some other brands, but that didn't bother me. It did bother my lad though who changed back to his other set when he found them. I now use these on bike rides and the sound quality is good enough for that!

Effective and mostly comfy
A good headset in terms of audio quality and connectivity, it's hampered a little by a head strap size that's a touch too small. Wearing the headset for extended periods, which I'd estimate at an hour, starts to squeeze a bit and hurt my ears, but a bit of adjustment usually helps. Still great quality for the price. Just remember to adjust it a bit as you wear it.

Incredibly comfortable headphones w/strong audio
I bought this as my other wireless headset just decided to fall apart, do not regret buying this in the least. These headphones are so comfortable you can wear them for hours on end and not get uncomfortable, especially if you're an editor and need to sit at a desk listening to the same audio over and over again. The microphone is also of decent quality.

Looked good, problems later
It works intermittently on our Xbox one. Some days we loose connectivity for 24 hours then it works for a week. Currently it’s not connected despite 3 hours of advanced set up connection you tube videos and using three additional controllers. Not sure if it’s the headset but we had a turtle beach for 10 years previously that is still working.

Great for the price
A great value headset. Good sound, comfortable and seem to be of good construction. The head band is adjustable. The microphone can be removed so that the headset can be used as headphones. It comes very well packaged, in the box is the headset, microphone, pc cable and instructions. Would recommend if you are looking for a cheap, all round headset.

It’s abit small but does the job
I bought this a few days ago as my other headset which cost 450 pound broke this was only for 1 day use but I noticed something very odd the actual microphone has better quality than my main headset ? The price is solid the actual headset is not massive at all but pretty good build quality 100% worth the price

Yet another headset replacement for my teenage lad
This is a good product for the money. As I have a teenage lad that seems to get through headsets at a ridiculous rate . I choose these ones at a sensible price and he seems happy with them. I also added the 2 year cover. So sorted now for 2 years no matter what he does to em. Cheers Argos

Great sound, slightly uncomfy
For the price, it's an amazing product. The detachable mouth piece is good if you don't like it in your face. However; the headphones are not as comfortable as I wished for them to be. The square-ish shape of the part that goes over your ear isn't ideal, but still a good gaming headset.

Microphone didn’t work
The headphones themselves were great. Comfy and great design but the microphone didn’t work. It stated plug in and play but this was wrong we had to contact the manufacturer to try and get them working but they couldn’t help us so just returned the product and bought some others.

Fragile but does the job
this product isn't the greatest build quality but it does have good sound although the sound isn't as loud as some gaming headsets you get what you pay for if you are on a low budget definitely would recommend but I would get the breakdown cover which is only 2 pound for 2 years.

Item was returned.
I bought two of these headsets one for playstation 4 and one for xbox one. The echo these headsets give off is ridiculous i tried everything to get it to stop changed all the settings and still couldn't stop it so in the end they was returned and exchanged for something else.
