The first thing that shocks is that this headset is smaller: just fit my ears, and the headband is shorter. This is not good at all, I have seen many reviews of people to "big head" who just could not put this helmet. What has been going through the heads of the designers at SteelSeries? Really weird ... The other big change is the sound: the former was too Basseux, it is not enough to unpack. Compared to Sennheiser for example, Siberia v3 "spits" too. After running a few weeks, the low magically appear, but we feel that it lacks punch, precision and above all spatial: really handicapping in Game v2 was not perfect from that point of view, but. it could pass for the price. Here not because it is more cher.N'espérez certainly not use it to listen to music.
For the mic I heard that the TV reception headset sounds: I have not had this problem with TeamSpeak. It remains clear. But here too it seems shorter than that of v2, but perhaps this is due to the reduction in size of the entire helmet.
In short I do not recommend it. It is more expensive than v2 and does everything so well. The v2 is available, turn to it if you like design and attractive price.
[Edit]
Upon retesting the microphone, he actually echo if you turn up the sound too loud headphones. So annoying, you have to turn it down. A real free fall as compared to the v2.
