Overview
Plugging in over USB-C, USB-A or a headphone jack, this wired headset drives angled dynamic drivers and a detachable microphone. Controls on the earcup handle volume and mic mute, and an LED shows the mute state.
Wide platform support and thick memory foam suit long gaming and work sessions across devices. Cable connection varies by platform, and the listing gives no wireless option or confirmed noise cancellation.
Who it's for
A player or work-from-home user who wants a wired headset with a detachable microphone and a retractable cable. Wireless fans and people who need confirmed active noise cancellation should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Memory foam headband and cushions
- Three connection options
- Spatial audio support
- Noise cancellation entry unclear
- Not water resistant
- Some listing fields look mislabelled
Performance notes
Angled drivers aim sound toward the ear canal, and spatial audio processing widens the soundstage in games. Impedance and sensitivity ratings show it is easy to drive from a console controller or a phone. Microphone quality depends on the detachable boom and positioning near the mouth.
