Disadvantages: Pricey, Some initial driver issues

When you tell people how much you paid for this headset its hard to not laugh with them but my gosh.... This is the end-game of headsets!

My brother has repeatedly crushed headsets after the heavy cable pulls it off the computer table and he comes in all heavy-footed and crushes them. This has completely solved his problems and after weeks of research was the only headset I could find that was wireless and had a microphone. The sound quality is through the roof and the sound is completely locked into the headphones. He has the sound at almost deafening levels and you cant tell until he pulls them away from his ears. The bass is really impressive and it has all kinds of funky stereo stuff that means he can here what direction people are coming from etc.

The bluetooth dongle (charger/aerial) is much more subtle than my phillips one which is the size of a small plate and the headset came fully charged.

The build quality is very high, he'll have trouble crushing this, the microphone also tucks away very nicely so that you're not aware of it or obstructed by it when you don't need it.

We haven't done any distance tests but he uses the microphone from the other end of his bedroom without any troubles and that's all we asked for.

Extremely happy with this baby.

Summary: Worth every penny if you play games a lot
