Title: IMO better than Corsair RGB XT
Review: I used a Corsair RGB wireless XT gaming headset with the "broadcaster quality mic" for more than a year. I finally pitched them due to the problems I had with the quality of the sound, and even replaced the mic due to the mute button (on the mic piece) wearing out after a number of uses. It was just a high maintenance device with very short range issues as well as the iCUE app constantly crashing and losing my settings. The Corsair also had music listening issues where a deep drum or bass note would cause the master volume to compensate and was quite unnatural. I assume the volume would pulsate due to some kind of overload protection algorithm that I was unable to simply disable. It was quite annoying.Knew about the JBL reputation with stereo systems, and high quality HiFi systems in the passed, and decided to give them a try. They were also cheaper than the Corsair XT I had. Installed the driver program, turned on the "DTS" mode with the JBL Quantum surround mode and the sound BLEW ME AWAY! I NEVER had this kind of sound quality with the Corsair when listening to music. The bass is plentiful, and the equalizer works great all around. That's a positive.A negative I have is related to things like the "surround sound" mode. I don't get a true sound that makes me think there are things behind me, or directional like you get in a movie theater. Could be I really don't have a proper source to prove it out, but the windows positioning test isn't surrounding me like expected.When I'm gaming, I sometimes have a wide variety of sound sources that I mix into my headset. I have three separate PC's that sound outputs/inputs are "daisy chained" to allow me to monitor all the pc's outputs within my single headset. It allows me to do things like watch TV, game, monitor chat apps, listen to the radio, and a few other esoteric functions related to other hobbies all at the same time. So, I'm generally dealing with up to 5 separate PC monitors, and all the audio feeds from what ever I may have going on. The JBL seems to deal with them just fine without losing music quality, the gaming output, and others, simultaneously. Definitely a positive.I use the 2GHz dongle on a USB port, and even though we have a house full of wifi and wireless devices, the range is CONSIDERABLY farther than the corsair RGB XT. The corsair also would "cut out" when someone would use the microwave in the kitchen (which is attached to the room I'm in). Interestingly, the JBL headset does NOT cut out with microwave use, which again, is another positive here.I've seen folks complain that they don't get enough volume out of this headset, but that is not my experience. I'm retired with "older ears", and the volume is more than I would ever safely use. So, definitely a positive. The "noise canceling" is pretty good. Its not "get on an airplane and not hear white noise" good, but for gaming and listening to music, its quite good. The headset does claim to have ANC (Active Noise Canceling).Anyway, for the price, its better, IMO, than the high end corsair headset, yet less expensive. In my opinion JBL has a very high quality product that is very forgiving of an RF crowded environment, and a longer battery life. Just turn off the pretty flashy RGB lighting on the headset, and you'll get a ton of battery time. Specs claim you get 43 hours of battery time between charges. That's considerably better than the high end corsair.

Title: Great headset option
Review: Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase. JBL is a brand that I generally trust when it comes to audio.The noise canceling function is okay. It isn't the best that I've used, nor is it the worst. Gave that aspect 3 stars because it is middle-of-the-road.The sound quality is good and the ear pieces are comfortable, though they don't breathe very well. I primarily use these for meetings on Microsoft Teams. I find myself moving them off one ear if I'm 3 hours into back-to-back meetings. I believe the auto-shutoff is around 4 hours, as I've had them turn off mid-meeting before.I really like the dual mute option. There is a button, or you can flip up the microphone. The microphone could use a little more resistance in movement. I sneezed once and the mic fell back down to the "on" position. No one heard the sneeze, so not a big deal. I was just surprised that it didn't stay up. All-in-all, the mic stays where you put it (unless you have a violent sneeze).My biggest complaint might be more with Teams than the headset, but I'm not sure. The headset has to be powered on BEFORE I join a meeting. If they aren't on and connected prior to joining, no one can hear me. I have to switch to the computer mic and then back to the headset. A minor inconvenience. My last headset could be switched on while connecting to the meeting and it worked every time.The noise canceling mic works amazingly. By comparison, my last headset seemed to pic up ambient noise and amplify it. They were great if the room was quiet, but anyone else talking sounded like they were in the conversation. These do what they say! Ambient noise does not seem to be picked up. I've had kids playing and or talking loudly in the same room and people on calls do not hear them. To reiterate, that's kind of amazing!Battery life is adequate. I get about 2 days use on a charge. That's pretty good considering. On that note, I read that the cheaper JBL headset could not be used while charging. That's just dumb. These advertised that you can charge and use at the same time.A surprise feature that I LOVE is the dual audio source. I connected them to my phone via Bluetooth to test them out before connecting to my work computer via the wireless USB dongle. While on a meeting (and still connected to my phone) I heard my text notification from my phone while still on the call at work! You can even listen to music while people are going on about boring work stuff and never miss a beat (get it?)!I have not installed the software that is loaded on the USB dongle, so I don't know what customizations can be made. Another thing that I'm still figuring out is the various audio level adjusters. I believe one is for mic and the other for incoming audio. Sometimes someone on a call will sound faint and I just roll one or the other until I get them to the proper volume. It's a nice feature, but I haven't fully figured out which adjuster controls which audio level. It's really good if you have someone who talks too loud... you can turn them down on the fly.In summary, they are great headsets! There are a few quirks, but those are easy to work around. The pros far outweigh any cons.

Title: Well worth the price
Review: I have had this headset for 2 years now and have no issues with them. When I first got them, there were intermittent connection issues with the dongle, then JBL released firmware updates and ever since then, I had no issues. The audio is nice and clear, the same when I use the 3.5mm jack with a good headphone amp. I can walk 1/2 my house without issue. Bluetooth has been rock solid. I love that I can play and talk at the same time, something I can't do my other over priced headsets. The noise cancelling is good for what it is, it keeps me focused and immersed in the game without loss of audio quality. Spatial cues are accurate and clear. The LED's are neat, but I mostly leave them off, you can't see them when wearing the headset anyways. Battery life is awesome. I can game for 8hrs and have more than 60% battery remaining, even after 2yrs. of use.Durability has not been a problem as I take really good care of all my headsets, but the quality is there. I also have a hard case that I store them in when not in use or travelling.The microphone is clear and natural enough for me, and has worked without issues.The only thing I would say that could be improved on is the volume. Even at max, I find myself doubting that I have everything setup properly.Overall, I say that with this headset, it is money well spent. I tried to replicate many of the issues that many others have stated: using them on other computers, such as friends and family's, in there homes just to ensure the dynamics, and they continue to work flawless. So much so that my peeps eventually purchased the headset. I also purchased the 910x model with the same satisfaction.Keep in mind, there is no perfect headset, just find what works for you, and this headset works really well for me.

Review: I bought these headphone with the expectation that they would be garbage.I have never had such good sound quality being sent into my ears before.Playing anything from shooters to racing simulations these are wild.I don't think it gets better than this for the price.11/10

Review: Una excelente compra. Verdaderamente me impresionaron. Si te gusta jugar videojuegos en consolas o en PC estos son por mucho los mejores audÃfonos que yo he probado. Vengo de probar los Razer Ultimate y los Razer Kraken, asà como los Sony inzone 9, y estos son mucho mejores que todos. La calidad del sonido es sorprendente, la comodidad también es destacable. La cancelación de ruido es buena. Todo es bueno en estos audÃfonos. De cualquier caso, quizás, la única queja serÃa que cuando uno tiene encendidos los audÃfonos con las luces RGB, con bluetooth, cancelación de ruido y audio espacial, es decir, con todas las funciones, la baterÃa le dura unas 12 horas, lo cual de todos modos es muy destacable. Los recomiendo ampliamente
