So the Sound is pretty good. Is there any comparison to the maxwells? Since people having issues with the Sound-locating there? Plus it has none ANC? And is pretty heavy?

@userunknown2i2 Nice! Will wait for your review. Why is it better though? Seems the A50 is also much more expensive at $379 :O

That microphone was awful. My dad tried one of these and said it kept cutting out and just didn't perform well when he tried to play his games. Could've been a bad batch, but I haven't been able to trust gaming labeled headsets for some time with how often I ran into that problem.

The ASUS headset sounds like it has all the features this one is missing. I just wish we could get more of a music comparison. To my gaming almost always sounds the same on these headsets.

Mic basically makes this product DOA. I can't understand why companies are still shipping products with microphones like this.
@ericluiz10979 күн бұрын
Because the headset is wireless. Current tech doesn't allow the microphone to stream high quality input wirelessly. You can check these settings on "Control Panel > Sound > Recording". It's gonna be locked on "Tape Recorder" for wireless headsets, but changeable for wired ones (if the mic is good). I don't really know the science behind it, I just know that's how it is: if you want a wireless headset, you'll have to compromise with mic quality. Sadge.

There is not much if anything better than the Maxwell. The Maxwell is also more expensive and quite fragile.
@jesuisahmedn11 күн бұрын
Maxwell's audio quality is probably still better, but these Alienwares look more durable than the Maxwell's. Also the Maxwell's don't have the best imaging so it's not the easiest to tell which direction an enemy is. I imagine it's better on the Alienware's.
