Each part is rated on one scale for every earbud and headphone, from lab test measurements where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Balanced, natural tuning with slightly fuller bass than the V2
  • Mic matched the V2 in their test and beat costlier rivals
  • Very light; six hours without pressure points
  • Smooth sliders, decent frame
  • Punchy bass, noticeable virtual surround in games
  • Light and comfortable cushions
  • Decent passive isolation

Cons

  • Closed-in soundstage, no THX in the box
  • Fake-leather pads run warm, thin lining
  • Exposed cable at full extension may fail
  • Mic not removable; noisy rubber cable
  • Highs a bit muffled out of the box
  • Mic slightly nasal and quiet; mute button thumps
  • Cups don't swivel and can press behind the ears
  • Called the budget gaming headset to beat: natural sound and a mic close to pricier sets, with some build shortcuts.

  • Very light with solid sound from the 50 mm drivers, but the frame feels fragile.
