Since it's my first gaming headset, I have no great comparative figures, but by the sound quality I have not so much expected, as I actually get. It has really good bass, good high notes and a convincing surround sound effect in games and what I think is good, the television and BluRayschauen. The overall sound quality is really class. The earcups Scots ambient sound good, but not to 100% - which is also important to listen to again. But to set the volume slightly higher, you get less and is thus deeper in the game there.
The quality of the microphone seems to be good, my partner in the chart XBL Party did not complain or confirmed better sound.
Microsoft provides to the headset with an adapter that is connected to the controller. The headset itself is then connected via 3.5mm jack it. I find also good because they allow companies then has a closed system and it may also use elsewhere.
The operation by volume, microphone on / off and gaming / Chat Sound balance can be set on the adapter.
If you actively using the Gaming Headset for the first time, it does not quite work, but the surround sound. Automatically you get from the XBOX One Dashboard a message stating that you should update the controller with the headset is connected using the supplied micro USB cable - which happens in a short time and very quickly.
The comfort is very pleasant, I can do it without problems 4, have over 5 hours without having to be bothered by something. The earcups are very soft and comfortable, just like the bow on her head, which is also still adjustable.
Delivered the headset in a XBOX-typical green box, in the headset, the Micro-USB cable and the headset adapter (which is also available separately). All high quality as you are used to it.
For serious gamers who want to have their first or possibly a better headset, but do not want 150 euros and spend more, this headset is probably 100% correct. From me it gets an absolute buy recommendation, did not alter the fact of putting on.
