    Amazing product 9/10 for price, and a must buy.
    Amazing product. 10/10 in every aspect, but I have a slight issue. When I mute my self it kinda works I guess, but people can hear me if I’m close enough or loud enough to the microphone. To be clear you have to be really loud or supper close to your microphone if it’s going to catch any audio at all. I’m just scarred my friends heard some of my conversations while playing games when I’m talking to others because that stuff is kinda private, but at the end of the day this is the best headphones I’ve ever owned in my entire lifetime.
