"I disagree I think there build quality is solid. ... the only times they broke is when the happens to "accidently" hit a wall at speed. And when I spilled a drink on them. They can still work just fine but they don't hold a charge unless they are plugged in but that's not because of normal wear and tear these were abused yet lasted me currently over 3 years."
"Been using for several years and no issues or drops in audio quality."
"had them since they released what 4 years ago never had any problems with them"

"battery life for me is once weekly, MAYBE twice if I am heavy using."
"Considering it already gets like 20 hours it might be an hour less. Of course it's a little lower due to age... But I can't complain."
"on a full charge they easily last me a week and I'm on my pc sometimes 8+ hours a day"

"I can dodo like the built in eq for games. It's kinda makes me have superpowers in CoD. I can hear footsteps across the map."
"fantastic sound quality ... The audio is clear with a good balance of bass and treble, making it great for both games and chatting with friends."
"they sound a lot better than anything Razer has made. ... the sound is 10 times better than a Razer headset."

"going wireless was such an upgrade for me, personally. ... I have a rather small apartment so my connection never drops and I can keep them on literally all the time."
"with the dongle attached to the wire I can easily stand 15-20 foot away without problems any further than that and it starts cutting out."
"so I got the 7x+ with the dongle to get rid of some of that Bluetooth interference."

"buggy software/transmitter"
"Does chatmix work properly for you without using GG/Sonar? I have GG but Sonar is disabled, chatmix doesn’t work and it’s the only thing I miss from my Arctis 7s"
