[@Drewsterman777]

I have the H3hybrids and they have issues. 1. The headset stops working if you leave it charging over night. I opened a support ticket with EPOS and their lab was able to reproduce this issue and are working on a fix. 2. My headset randomly disconnects and reconnects. Really annoying especially for the price. 3. The headset randomly powers off and takes hours of sitting idle to power on again. 4. After a year of owning them they refuse to power on anymore. EPOS won't warranty them or replace them, which is a shame. I absolutely baby my electronics. I keep them clean and I take very good care of them. This is not an issue with mishandling them. The sound quality and mic are fantastic. Sound stage is lacking as they are closed back. Comfort is top notch. I can game for 8+ hours on a day off and never feel fatigue or pain or discomfort. I have a large head and dumbo ears that stick out and my ears never touch the driver walls. The headset is light and the clamping force is perfect for maintaining a seal but not squeezing my head. Battery life is easily all day and they charge quickly. If it wasn't for the 3 issues above, these would be, hands down, the best wireless headset on the market.

[@District.24]

Agreed. Save yourself the headache and buy the H6PRO - it has all the pros and none of the cons, but it is wired, if you consider that a con. I don’t.

[@Drewsterman777]

I was also looking for the perfect wireless headset, hs80, g pro x2, nova pro, maxwell, etc. I watched hundreds of videos about them. Money was not an issue, I was gonna buy any of them that gave me exactly what I wanted, but all of them had cons I couldnt take. So then I thought, why do I want wireless? Im used to play with cheap wired headset, and once I get the hang of it I forget about the cable 10 seconds after starting playing. So why not stick with wired? There must be some premium sounding wired headsets out there, I thought. And then I heard about the pc37x, pc38x, h3 hybrid, and the ones I finally bought: the magnificent h6pros ❤

Great review, thank you. Are the inner measurements of the earpads different, given the H3 is generally scaled down from the H6? I ask as I love the H6s I own but would like a wireless version as well.

If wireless is your desire, there are better options than the H3PRO Hybrid. I would recommend the Corsair HS80 RGB Wireless. Not the one marked USB or MAX. That headset is superior to the H3PRO and should be cheaper.

I don't think it is worth upgrading to the H3PRO Hybrid from the H3. If you want to takes calls then I understand why you would upgrade, but other than that, it's not worth it. The H3 is a very good headset.

[@ursdubel3585]

There is one big difference worth to mention between the H3pro hybrid and the other two headsets and thats the 2.4 GHz connectivity. A 2.4 GHz connection has a latency of 30 to 60 ms which is significantly faster then a normal bluetooth connection with a 300 to 400 ms latency. Most people would think thats not much and Yes thats not much if you listen to music or browsing the internet but in games a delay of almost a half second is alot.

[@TheYeko27YT]

Nice video, I was looking for a good pair of wireless gaming headset, but It is being frustrating cause there are many options and everyone has different opinions on every headset, I am looking for a headset with good bass that really make feel that I am in the game, and also something really comfy for a big head, I had the hyperx cloud 2, I really liked how the 7.1 immersion feels but It was not clear sound, than I changed to the HS80 wireless, but were too small for my head, even though the audio was better in my opinion, I dont get enough bass or immersion in the game, I was planning to get h3pro hybrid, cause I saw some reviews and they said that they were better than Astros a50, Inzone H9 etc, but know I discovered the H6PRO but I dont know if they have that bass and that immersion that I am looking for, Do u have any other headset in mind with those aspects?

[@District.24]

Too much bass can muddy your mids. If you want bass and clarity then you want the H6PRO. If you’re a bass head, I don’t think the H6PRO will make you happy, because the only thing that makes a bass head happy is strapping subwoofers to the sides of their heads. Start with the H6PRO, and if the bass is not satisfying enough try an Astro - they have lots of bass (and crap everything else).

I bought the h3 wired for my kids at £27 they are a fucking bargain. The sound quality and directional sound is phenomenal for its price. They dont need a dac but with the the sound blaster g6 they sound amazing!

[@xsa_ge]

are you able to hear footsteps in games with the h6pro without an amp?

Yes, the impedance on the H6PRO is low, and the sensitivity is high. The mids are forward. This all translates to a headset that hears footsteps exceptionally well. One of the best ever, in my opinion.

The H6PRO has more bass than the SHP9500. The SHP is definately brighter and more flat. The H6PRO has superior imaging and better mids. The SHP have a fun vibe, that everyone enjoys, but it can't compare to the H6PRO as a FPS centric gaming headset.

I'm a person who wants things to work. The H3Pro had problems, so I don't care if it's a dollar; I ain't compromising. Although I'm an average player, I still want to be #1 on the BFV scoreboard. So I'm willing to pay more to have a headset that helps me achieve that goal fairly. The H6Pro does everything right. When I use it, I can't complain about sound, because the sound is spot on. If I miss my target, it aint' because of the headset. So to answer your question, I would still pay the $140 for the H6Pro.

Personally I think if the sound quality and build quality is on par I would purchase the headset that also gives me the Bluetooth functionality. I find their pricing of all of their premium headsets confusing. I have a feeling they don't quite know where things sit yet either and are just throwing darts at a board trying to find something that hits with consumers at a certain price point.

However I would rather have the better sounding headset and spend the difference as I don't replace headsets often. That is why I asked.
