"I use them with my Xbox, pc, and occtionallymy phone."
"I can connect my headset to my phone and my Xbox at the same time and have the FaceTime call come through my headset ... mute button on headset works you don’t have to mute on ft to be muted ... the party/game sound dial feature works with FaceTime as the party sound dial for making your game louder than your party ... works super great for when I want to watch TikToks in pregame lobbies (through the headset) and don’t want it to be blasted for my whole party to hear when I don’t want to mute myself"

"Each side of it is a knob. You just twist each ear knob. The right ear is for volume, and the left ear is for the party mix. Easy and functional. No other headset makes it this simple and perfect."
"I really love that you can control overall volume and game/chat-balnce by twisting the earpiece- no searching for teeny tiny scrollwheels, but the whole earpiece is the scrollweel."
"1 second press to turn on or off. ... And a different button to mute mic or unmute. With a small light at the end of the flexible microphone that shows it’s now ON when bright. ... Easy volume control with turning the entire ear cuff that always blows my mind even today."

"the sensitivity is way too high—you can literally hear everything in my room. ... My friends hear the fan of my Xbox, my neighbors and everything else. ... In addition, the noise reduction does not work."
"It sux, no matter how much you restrict outside noise, your party still hears it"

"The mic materials are sooooo weak, mine broke after 2 months"
"the adjustment wheels for the volume are complete ass"
"It was good for about 2-3 years but I use it daily with pc for work on top of gaming and it literally started falling apart. ... The plastic from the mic fell off and then the sponge bit from one ear cup, and then other ear cup. ... It’s like the whole thing one day decides to self destruct and falls apart in one month."
