Overview
A gamer plugging into a PC, console or phone gets a wired over-ear headset with memory foam cups and a removable boom microphone. The listing names a JBL QuantumSOUND signature tuned for hearing positional cues.
The reason to look at it is the removable mic and the wide device support through one headset jack. The limit is that it is wired with a fixed cable, so it will not suit anyone wanting wireless play or a separate cable.
Who it's for
Gamers on PC, Mac, Xbox, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and VR with a standard headset jack can use it for chat and play. Wireless fans and those with newer controllers that lack a headset jack need adapters or another model.
Pros and cons
- Detachable boom microphone
- Memory foam ear cushions
- Works across PC, consoles and mobile
- Windshield foam for the mic included
- Cable is fixed to the headset
- Not water resistant
- Console adapter details not listed
Performance notes
The dynamic drivers and memory foam cups shape the sound and the passive isolation, while the boom mic picks up the voice close to the mouth. Windshield foam softens breath noise, and the analog plug means the host device supplies all the processing.
