Headset is lightweight and comfortable enough for long gaming sessions, and not too much squeezing pressure on the head makes this a fair option for wearers of glasses. Headset cups are round on the exterior, but interior padding is oval shaped for a more natural fit on the inside. The headphone is not detachable, but is designed to rotate up into the headset assembly almost seamlessly, making it an option to just use them as normal headphones without being able to easily tell that it is a gaming headset. The microphone has only moderate sensitivity, so if you're a soft speaker you may find yourself having to raise your voice. Mic monitoring is pretty much non-existent, if you touch the mic you can hear the monitoring, but you can't really hear yourself speaking since it's dialed so low; some will appreciate this, some will hate it. Sound staging is adequate for a stereo headset, and directional sound is functional in an in-game environment. Sound through the included stereo adapter is noticeably better than without it, but ultimately this is where the headset is lacking. The natural EQ of the device is very scooped out and offers very little in the mid and mid-high ranges, leaving you with lots of bass and scratchy highs. Even at different volumes, the sound has a "distant" quality which is off-putting and makes immersion difficult. These sound and volume issues are worse when plugged directly into a controller (without stereo adapter) or audio device such as an iphone/audio out jack on a PC. Overall, the headset is decent for an introductory or backup headset, but once you hear almost any other modern headset (or headphones for that matter), the quality of sound will leave you wanting. For $20 this was a decent buy, but not at full retail, there are better options in the $50-70 range.Read full review

I have an Xbox one and no adapter. I didn’t know if it would work without an adapter but it does. You can plug it straight into the remote. However it’s small so people with big heads beware. Also you have to unplug and replicate it in to make it work. Also it feels like cheap plastic and the cushion isn’t the best. But all in all cheap chat headset that works great.

I’ve had many gaming headsets and these ones have always been my favorite setup. I will continue to buy a new pair every couple years because they always tend to break on the side by the ear piece. But they work well on my Xbox and PC

Love this headset. It comes with the adaptor that if you looked for it alone costs $35-$40 on eBay. It sounds great and the mic works well. I now have 2 I liked them so much. Well worth the $20 I spent on it.

Extremely satisfied with the quality of these as we had to replace ours after our cat chewed the wire.
