There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The box was plain. It contained a long USB cord with a volume knob at the other end. That cord is very long, I keep most of it bundled since I use it during in front of my computer. A separate cord goes from the volume knob to the to the headphones, maybe 3-4 feet. A third cord could replace the USB and volume knob, going to what looks like a 3.5 mm headphone jack instead of the USB. That cord is about 6 inches long, but will work to attach to anything kept on your body when joined with the cord to the headphones. There was also a instruction booklet that I ignored because it was so easy to assemble.
Quality was very good. There is one very minor rub on one ear piece, less than 3/8 inch long. It is only visible under direct low angle lighting. It is likely the reason the product was returned, but I found it inconsequential. No one looking at it from more than a foot away will know it is there.
The performance is amazing. I use it to record screen capture videos. The mic quality is extraordinarily clear, no pops, hisses, or clicks. I wear it for several hours at a time, with no fatigue or overheating.
When the mic is active, a red light appears at the top of the microphone. Other reviews found this annoying, I did not notice it. The default LED colors on the ear pieces cycle slowly through the rainbow, I did not notice these either since I was wearing them.
My purchase was for a refurbished unit, and it arrived with an extremely tiny scuff on one ear. That scuff saved me a ton of money and allowed me to get the mid-range headphones over the cheap ones, so I'd say it was completely worth it.
From the start I was sketched out, since the box it came in was already ripped and the headset was not even encased properly. The pictures that I provided is how the product came in. Again, it did not come with the wires, it did have the manual so that's something I guess.
I tested out the product with the Arctis 3 wire, so that may be the reason as to why it did not work properly, but the right side did not work. Like no sound at all, I had my pc at 70 volume like always and nothing came out. On the left side, the sound that came in was not to its full potential. My Arctis 3 which I have had for 2 years has better sound quality than this. The sound came low, and could barely be heard. Again, it might have been due to the wiring issue, but I did not get one, so I had to use what I had.
Clearly Amazon skipped steps 2 and 3 on their "Renewed Product Journey," advertisement as the product was faulty and incomplete. Message for everyone, just be cautious what you buy and make sure you can return it. I got bad luck with the item, but it might not be the same for you. This is just my complaint and experience, anyways thank you for reading and have a good one.
