    Love the design, Fits well with my setup
    This headset gave me a scare- I came back to it and found the ear piece disconnected from the main band and thought it was broken, I even ordered a refund/replacement. I realized that a small screw had come loose on the connection and was able to fix it right away!Personally, I would not use the headset mic, it works okay but isn't great to listen to, though the same goes for most I've tried out there. If you plan to use these sitting far away from your PC, you might want to order a longer cable, It's about 3-4 ft long, which is not enough to walk away with, but fine if you don't plan on moving.Almost everything else about these headphones is great. I'm no audiophile but the sound works for me and my games, and the build is light and comfortable. I like the adjustable headset strap and the sleek design (it doesn't make your head look huge). Would recommend!

    It broke after three months of minimal use and the returns policy is only a month after I have bought the product and is not eligible for repair, I would not buy again or recommend this product and is such a shame that I have saved my money to buy this for my grandad and it broke after such a short amount of time
