      I agree with you on the sound review, but I would also say considering their price they are in the cheaper end of good gaming headphones. So it will be interesting to see other reviews as on paper the specs seem good given the price point.

And please call out if companies are saying things like 360 audio.. 10s ad in the middle of random LTT video would have contained same amount of information as this had.

Because the plastic around the hinge is so thin, and because I’ve had these headphones for nearly two years daily driven, it’s only natural [for so thin a piece of plastic] to break after such long use [with how much strain it undergoes throughout its lifetime due to its design].

      There are enough reports and pictures from SteelSeries customers that have the defect on the exact same spot.

I can't stand not being able to hear my own voice clearly, and the windows "listen to" option's induced delay is even worse.

    What material are the "hinges"? (or whatever that part that connects the band to the cups are called). Since that part is what usually breaks first for me with headsets I kinda care about that (a quick tap with a fingernail and commenting on what material it feels like would be enough)

    The mic sucked, but the rest seemed pretty cool. Since the mic is detachable, maybe they'll come out with a higher quality mic? Also, $150 is a bit much. They're asking for quite a lot for something that doesn't even have bluetooth functionality. Yea, bluetooth isn't everything, but the OPTION for it is make or break.

    I love Roccat keyboards. Not sold on their other stuff. It’s a shame you never reviewed their Vulcan 120 AIMO low-profile keyboard - been using one for 3 years now and it’s been insanely good. Normal height mechanical keyboards are dead to me. Brown switches for lifeeeeee. I’ve tried the Dygma Raise, the Razer Huntsman Elite whatever, some Corsair one. Can’t find anything better than this Vulcan. lol I’d imagine the next step up from here would just be a Ducky or something full custom. But then it wouldn’t be low-profile :(

    • @spikeimperial
      @spikeimperial Год назад +1

      Do I have good news for you😂. Keychron is making some of their keyboards in the QMK/VIA custom variant, low profile with the PBT treatment and everything. 👍👍👍

    • @spikeimperial
      @spikeimperial Год назад +1

      I looked one up just for you, Keychron S1 QMK custom on their site, comes with a brown option, and comes with hotswap/rgb options too if you fancy that, enjoy! It even comes with the sound foam inside.

    I wish more headphones had the monitoring feature. My wife complains that I yell when I'm gaming with friends while wearing my headset. That's why I use my Blue Yeti most of the time, even though it's annoying to do so just to play games. If I can't hear myself speak, I start slurring and sounding like an idiot, so I just yell through my gaming headset lol.

    I cannot figure out how to get these to to work, but I'm using a MacBook do you think that's the problem? There's literally no input when I turn them on or off. The only thing that happens is they make a little sound and the lights flash on but nothing on the computer plugged in or not.

    Instead of getting this, you all better off with Sennheiser GSP370 if you are looking for a pair of wireless headset. 100 hours battery time and audiophile level of audio, plus the mic is decent too.

    So, there is no a word about the audio quality of a headset. Instead, we got to see James being amazed by the "big, long cable". This is why you don't do sponsored reviews.
    Ohhh, right, they are careful not to call these "reviews". These are just unboxing videos. Not like anybody would consider this video as a review just because you say your opinion about certain features (while staying silent about others), right?
    To be honest, I was never so close to unfollow the channel. I just don't want to be manipulated without realizing it.
