    I wear glasses and got them recently. They are very comfortable. The build is nice and I like how it adjust with the strap. To me it's better than others that you have to pull the ends up or down my other skullcandy headset broke with those adjustable features. Without using their software it's already pretty nice but I'm a customizion nut so I can't wait to mess around with the software. I don't have the same issue with the ears or while wearing glasses. I do wish it was fully Bluetooth so I can use them with my phone but not to big a deal. Over all love them as a midrange headset.

    Great review!
    Was struggling with getting the sound right at CS:GO, first checking different EQ settings on the net, but found just an ever easier solution, just keep it simple, either go DTS and pick Game preset or just play default, works great. Or do you have a better option? :)
    What is confusing is the two volume wheels, the one at left is for volume, the right one, also adjust the audio, not only the chat sound (thx for explanation btw), so it's confusing. Also you get two options at the colume option on your screen's taskbar, 'chat' and 'game', keep the chat one enabled as output/ input using Discord or so.
    The ski-mask is something you don't really feel, completely new feature for me, but works great, floats with the hair, but the earpads are not the biggest, if you got bigger grown ups ears, it does fit, but I'd wish for bigger space, test it before you buy is my tip.
    The software is pretty easy and good, should have some FPS EQ option just like Logitech got.
    Mic works good, having sidetone disabled and the mic volume in the software on like half, works great, the only issue as you said, is that if you touch the mic it does a scratch sound. Also a pro is that it is adjustable, like a cable.
    If the battery indicator doesn't show up or showing a red light even you've fully charged it, just put the charging cable into the headset and to your PC while having the software open, make sure you pair them first and update the software.
    Been using threaded headsets before, so boring with the constant cable management, so investing in these, yes, a good move for the money and when battery low, just keep charging cable and fast net adapter close to you.

    thanks for the review man. im very close to pulling the trigger. Once question, can the headset play audio while having it on charge? Does the charging cable act as a pass-thru or does it use the wireless feature while on charge? Some times I want to use the headset wirelessly and other times plugged in. Hope you can answer!

    The game/voice chat is useful on pc as well. I have my discord set to come out of the chat channel (there are 2 separate audio channels on pc) and then everything else set to the game channel. Can easily lower discord sounds if im trying to hear something in a game and your friends/guild arent being quiet lol. or if a game/video is overly loud when youre trying to listen to what someone is saying.
