They sound solid and if you’re not an audiophile, this will be more than enough to get the job done whether you’re working or gaming. The mic sounds great for what it is.
They’re comfortable to wear and you’ll even forget you have them on. They are a bit of a tight fit when you first put them on, but they loosen up after a while. Also, they do a pretty good job of blocking out external sounds. These are not noise canceling, but it’s good enough.
The software is much like others - kinda bloatware type but just enough to make a difference in sound quality. It’s nice that they also include a splitter for mic and audio. You also get a half decent carrying pouch.
Overall, you’re getting what you pay for. If you want something that just works and don’t care about anything else like audiophile level sound and mic quality, these are for you.
The cord length is different than what I thought it would be. The cord directly attaches to the headset (with a well designed strain relief) and is 4' 4" (or 52") long, and ends with a TRRS connector. There is an extension cord that allows you to plug in the headset TRRS connector, and ends in two TRS connectors that should be plugged into a desktop computers' microphone jack and speaker jack. The cord seems to be a very durable cord.
I use a laptop which has a TRRS jack, so I cannot use the extension cord, to I was a bit disappointed that the card wasn't as long as I hoped. However, it is long enough to work fine, so I didn't take any stars off for this.
I use this headset a lot for remote work, and almost never for computer games. The sound quality is really good. The headset and padding's passive noise reduction is good, and is better than most headphones and headsets that I have used in the past.
This headset is extremely comfortable to wear. The adjustments were easy to make. Most other headphones/headsets put a lot more pressure on my ears. This headset applies just enough pressure for the padding to seal off all around my ears, so that the noise reduction can happen. The top padding is very good, and I hardly notice the headphones pushing down on the top of my head.
I've asked other people in meetings how I sound, and they have all said that my microphone is working well and I sound good.
I have been wearing BTE (Behind The Ear) hearing aids for a long time, and most headsets cause them to whistle or scream. This is the first OTE (Over The Ear) headset I've ever owned where my hearing aids don't whistle or scream, which is so nice!!!
Overall, this headset is a great headset, and is designed and manufactured very well. I would recommend this to family and friends if they want to spend a little more for a quality headset.
Build Quality
When you pick up the headset the first thing you notice is just how light it is. It feels somewhat solid, but also it's clear that this is not a headset that prioritized premium materials. It's also extremely comfortable because of how light it is. Although I've never had issues with heavier headsets and neck pain, if that is a consideration the light materials should be great for long term sessions.
The pads are faux leather on the interior ring and exterior ring. The part that rests against your head feels like something a little more breathable. I don't think I will have any issues wearing these for long sessions. The clamping force is a good moderate level where they won't fall off accidentally, but I don't feel like I am in a death grip.
Mic Quality
I made some calls using the mic and, I believe this to be a great compliment to the quality of the mic, no one thought I was on a headset. "It's like you were actually talking through your phone." Although they have a gamer vibe, I could definitely see using these on conference calls (as long as the video was off.) Basically, the mic is great.
Audio Quality
Here's where I was expecting things to fall apart, but they really didn't. I decided to make a completely unfair comparison between these and my pair of Sennheiser HD600s run off of an AudioQuest DragonFly Black DAC/AMP. There was clearly no contest between the two headphones in terms of vocals or detail retrieval, but the Razer wasn't a bad headphone by any means. It had a clear and present bass, without being muddy. I do feel like the Corsair Virtuoso had a more full sound, but the spotty connection ruined it.
Gaming tends to be, I think, more forgiving than listening to music ... so I ran through a couple of games as a test. I tried a game that I feel focuses on background music (Unravel), which sounded great. I also tried something with more exploding (Borderlands 3) and the headset felt equally competent.
Flaws (But Not Deal Breakers)
The volume knob goes the opposite of the way my mind treats every other volume knob in my life. Clockwise turns the sound down?! WHY?!
I would have loved an LED to remind me that I'm muted. My first attempted call failed because the mute was engaged.
