Good quality
I've been using this more than my headphones recently because I want to hear my surroundings. Sound quality is not high-end but it's good enough that I'll enjoy my games.
It's more than I expected
I've used this weird looking headphone for a month, it's totally worth the money. It's truly bring the real 3D sound with FFXIV. Now I cannot play the game without this game gear. If you are the FFXIV gamer, buy this headphone, don't buy the lozy 'Immerse Gamepack', this gear crashes that lozy software! Overall, 8/10, and worth to buy it for FFXIV.
Really Impressed
I have been using this SC-GN01 for a couple of weeks now and I have to say I'm really impressed. The directional audio is excellent and very accurate.
It is very comfortable to wear and I am happy wearing it for long periods of gameplay. It does not get hot and is quite light so you forget that it is even on.
Microphone performance seems good too, I have had no complaints from teammates in game. Could do with a touch more bass but overall really happy with it.
A comfortable middle ground
A gift for my husband & he really enjoyed them as there's less weight on his neck by using the headphones & better sound quality than desktop speakers. It's a comfortable middle ground between headset & desktop speakers.
A steal for discounted price
Much more comfortable then any beefy headphones with surround sound experience. Great alternative for PC room away from tv speaker syso
Made for immersive gaming
I love this product. This is lightweight and very comfortable. Sound is very good and loud! And unlike headphones you can hear people.
100% recommend if you play !
Not worth the money.
I bought this as an attempt to avoid over-the-head headphones as I find long-term headphone use uncomfortable. But these simply aren't worth the price if you're into music or gaming.
Pros:
- Comfortable
- Ideal for online work environments.
- Voices on calls are clear.
Cons:
- Microphone quality is poor for the industry standard in 2023.
- A lot of audio depth is lost (bad for listening to music and for certain games as expected from basically a set of wearable speakers.)
I wouldn't recommend these unless you're an office worker looking for something more comfortable to wear. I've been using them for a few days, but as someone ...view more
Not bad at all
Worth for the value
