Dude your video is so precise I love it you go far into detail.

Thank you so much for doing a mic test - I would be mortified if I bought some of these mics for their prices and I sounded like I was speaking into a pringles tube

Thank you for the sound test

In-depth review. Appreciated, thanks!

Awesome review. Thank you!

Thanks for the video!

Great review 👌

Nice review 👍

I actually think the mic on Pulse 3d was one of the best one from the whole review. They didnt pick up the TV sound like the other ones.

This was a great review. Mic test was awesome

By far the best video on headset reviews and definitely most helpful. Thank you!

This was a FANTASTIC review nice job.

Great round up. I would have added the new Razer Kraken V3 lineup.

Very good review

This is exactly the kind of review I was looking for! More from this guy!

Nice detailed review

Great video

I was wondering if the soundcore life q35 is good for gaming too

What about for competitive fps games like r6 siege or cod where you need good surround sound ?

Is one of these also a good business headset? does someone tested it?

Ik this video old but appreciate you it was very helpful

im currently looking for a new headset. i ended up selling my pulse headset, I have a big nogging and it was just simply too tight/constricting. But the audio sounded great especially the 3d, it was awesome to use during the "dead space remake". Just wish it sat more comfortably on my head for extended periods of gameplay

Is it normal that the arctis 7p+ is not that good because is have 1 for two days now and it is so muffeld and even with the software change i still have a bad time does anyone have tips?

hi, i have the hyper x but my mic cuts out and pops due to the connection with my controller. how do i fix this? no matter what, if the mic is wired this seems to happen

You just earned your self a sub sir

The PS5s 360 headphones feel weird on my head. I love the Hyper X and the Steel Series. The steel series mic is unreal and they are extremely comfortable,I love them.

my favorite part about the The mmx 100 is that the microphone only works when plugged in at a certain angle after two months of owning it!

How good is virtual surround sound of Tempest 3D-Engine working with the other headsets? Or is Tempest 3D-Engine only working in combination with the PS-Headset? On my PS4 I use a Tritton 720+ but the PS5 has no optical out, so I maybe would need a new one but don't wanna miss 3D-virtual surround sound.

I gotta disagree with the mic. I was told I was too loud and had to decrease the volume. But would like a boom mic tho

I didn't realize if CNET has changed the Logo. From usually I see into new one

I have a lower tier of steel series and all of my friends tell me they echo in the mic, or have mic issues.

What about a headset that doesn’t pick up background noise as much, a lot of noise in my house

Awe man, the glasses getting shoved into your war and head is always nice.

I have the MG20 but cannot get it working on my ps5 for the life of me, help

What about the new hyperx alpha wireless headset?

I'd say the biggest thing I'm looking for is something to cancel fan and background audio. I like to stream, but I hate either forcing people to listen to my fan, or sit in a hot room to please viewers. Is there any headsets with this preset that isn't gonna break my bank??

Please check out Logitech 435 Wireless headsets for PS5. They are great as per their value.
