Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Overall, this headset is very well made. There are problems, though, and it's defintely not for everyone. For those seriously considering purchasing this, let me tell you what wont' get from this:
1)Supperior sound quality. For me it sounds good enough, but there is a noticable hit in sound quality from even the regular XBox Live headset (at least through the earpiece). If you're looking for pristine sound, you should look elsewhere.
2)Longevity. If you're the type that likes to game for hours on end, you might want to skip past this as well. The battery lasts between 6-7 hours. For some, that's more than enough. For others, this may not quite fit the bill. On the plus side, at most it only takes an hour and a half for a complete recharge.
Other than that, I have to say it's a darn near perfect XBox headset. First thing to notice when holding it is the feel of the plastic used. It almost feels a little rubbery which greatly enhances its comfort level. Second is that it's pretty light. Considering it houses a Lithium-Ion battery, I would have expected it to be a bit heavier, but it's very nicely balenced. Third is that it's very comfortable to wear. I can't say enough how good it feels compared to other headsets and, for me, it stays put. Even after hanging my head upside down the headset stayed pretty much in place. And, lastly, the wireless capability. This, for me, was what really brought me to this headset. It's very nice to finally cut the cord from the controller.
My only real gripe is that there is a constant "white noise" that will play through the headset even when nobody is talking. This again goes towards how much you want to sacrifce for the sake of a wireless headset. I don't find the noise overpowering, but it is there and for those who can't tune it out I can understand that it might become annoying.
Basically, if you're crazy about going wireless to cut the hassle and mess of cords (like myself), this headset is great with a few drawbacks that show its limitations. If you're seeking perfection in sound, stick to the cords.
