    Packaging was surprising to say the least
    4 Stars
    Packaging was surprising to say the least
    Forgot I ordered them and surprisingly when I opened the box it was a bit mangled as if refurbished. Checked around the headset to see if there was any damage so far nothing so I won’t complain there.Feel: moving on from the other set of steels these feel a lot better. Ear and head feels well plantedSound quality (music): sounds are really pronounced and bass feels good, I would wear these outside since they don’t give off gamer headset vibesPrice: can’t complain they’re suspiciously cheap but sound really good.Mic/gaming: haven’t tried yet broke my glasses so kind of withholding from gaming at the moment.Originally wanted to do 3 stars but the quality exceeded my expectations.
