I have a full roccat setup. This headset the Kona remastered and the Vulcan pro tkl. Keyboard and mouse are great. Headset is average. But I’m a weird person that wants all my stuff the same brand.
I asked the manufacturer if they work with PS5 and any other console? This is there response:The ROCCAT SYN Pro Air feature set and functionality is optimized for PC gaming and offers an easy setup via USB. While wireless connectivity for game and chat audio with only the PS4/PS5 is achievable, some functions such as synchronized volume control and access to NEON software will not be available when connected to the console. Xbox is not compatible with the headset, because it requires security chips embedded in the model. The SYN Pro Air headset is also compatible with the Nintendo Switch in docked mode only, and allows chat audio with select titles.
Great review man! I use the Roccat mouse and keyboard so I’m excited to try these when they get here. I used the stealth gen 2 and they were so comfortable. It was just annoying having to use the app to do any settings adjustments (for me personally). Also they would cut out at times on pc for me. I always look forward to your reviews man. I hope you have a great Fathers Day!
Interesting review there Techne. Despite the negative overall review you gave of the Roccat Syn Pro Air, you still manage to sound amazingly upbeat :) Loving your energy
hello The Techne, can you say if the sound and the mic is better than the roccat elo air? because the leader on the elo air really stinks for me... and to be honest, the price is not that big of a deal and i want to stick with my full roccat setup, so IF the sound/mic is somewhat i will upgrade. btw i really liked the intro talk with the manager :D
Do you still recommend steelseries headsets right now? With all the other options? I specially love the comfort on them, that’s why I’m more interested in Steelseries on that
Hey Techne, One thing if I may suggest pointing out to your viewers, especcially for headsets that are not necessarily marketed for console, like these, is when you mentioned they worked on PS4, you might also want to specify whether or the the volume wheel works, or doesn't. I say this because several headsets that are marketed for PC, many will still work sure, but the volume wheel does not on consoles. It would be good to know exactly what works, and what does not considering some PC headsets may have limitations on console. Just a suggestions.
Hey there, Thank you for the response. I want you to know that I'm a big fan of your channel. You do a wonderful job!! Have you ever considered starting a secondary channel dedicated to game reviews, or walkthroughs? Just curious.
Honest Review i was waiting for this! I own the Roccat Khan Aimo and i think i will sitck to them for a litle while, the mic on mine sound better and the sound quality on frequency is higher goes from 10Hz to 40000Hz... But the sotware on Roccat is always a pain in the ass, they are always changing and filled with bugs! But nice review and HUG! Keep it up
But would you recommend it if it would cost like 130$ or 120$? I got mine today for like 130€ and I'm a big fan of Roccat devices. Greetings from Germany.
Bro i am looking for any good headset , mouse , keyboard with a good price and i found my self with roccat i got the kone pro , roccat pyro , and i am going to buy the syn pro air , idk why u didnt recommend them their price is very reasonable and kinda cheap for a “wireless gaming headset” that is complete
i've had issues with every arctis headset we've owned. my 15 yr olds gone through probably 6 pairs in the last 2 years, and probably 10 cables (not sure if the pro is wireles or not. They sound great, and are comfy, but man they just dont last. i wish you luck on em, get em at best buy with the warranty!
@@alanismajere I'd not judge them on the care that a 15 year old gives to them. Plenty of my gaming buddies take care of theirs and they've had them for years.
@@dave93x I had bought 3 sets at once, one for me (i'm nearly 40), one for my 13 yr old and one for my 15 yr old. All of them broke. cables went first, then the speakers one by one. I just kept replacing them with best buys warranty. I take good care of my stuff. I still have some logitechs, audeze and senheizers that i've had for years without issues, along with external dacs, amps, etc... that i've spent thousands on. i'm a big audiophile and i'm super gentle with my personal gear. (figured i'd try a few gaming headsets, logitechs just werent comfy as why i moved over to the arctis, they were comfy, so were the astro a40s, and their still kicking just fine as well after 5 yrs).
@@alanismajere fair enough. What were the issues you've had with Arctis headphones? I've got my friends still using theirs almost every day and then you with this experience. I've heard they're fragile in other comment sections too, but then you have the overwhelming positive reviews. I'm waiting for the Arctis 7x to be back in stock at some point so I'm researching them quite a bit.
@@dave93x 9 outa 10 times the failures were always in the cables and replacement cables. The one that wasnt a cable issue, i tried multiple, the speaker just started popping in and out. could of been internal wiring of the ear cup or something. I dont mind arctis, and i love their stuff, i just ended up shying away from them due to this. I will say, the issues you have with a company are what make or break you purchasing with them in the future. If you've had good success, go for it. Thats how people end up with their own opinions or should anyway, by their personal experiences and not the experiences of others. Just my 2 cents :)
man i really wanted to like this headsets but they have some major issues that drive me nuts...ive had them for allmost 6 months. YES the ear pads are ruff and im always moving them around because the adjustments are too loose and i am constantly re adjusting them .....also the softwhere is not very good...its buggy and i have simple issues like everytime i turn them on i have to turn mic montoring back on threw the softwhere. i turn it on ...i take my headphones off once finished using them...i put them back on and the mic monitoring is turned off again...also when you plug them in threw the usb c cable it wont reconise that they are pluged in until you turn the power on. simple things that just drive me nuts for how much i payed for them... p.s i cant find any replacment ear pads anywhere.
Hmm, usually I agree with most of your reviews but I picked this Syn Pro Air and it’s excellent. I can’t actually believe you have recommended the Stealth 700 at all never mind in place of the Syn. I the Stealth 700s are among the worst headsets I’ve ever tried.
Lol Techne, every time I see you put on a headset, you remind me of an aircraft controller or like an aircraft carrier controller landing the planes in Top Gun :P
Hey dude, I went from the turtle beach to the rowcat... I honestly prefer the comfort and sound quality of the roccat headset. I suppose it all comes down to preference but this headset beats alot of others out there in my opinion
I had to watch the beginning 3x 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I LOVE IT! awesome video. Techne love the teeth. The Rowcats Roc-ket or Roccat i have my ears get a little toasty. But, I love their products.... The boss boss🤣🤣
Honestly seems like it should be priced more at $100. $150 is where headsets start to need wireless or Bluetooth or some more teche features or at least 1.
@@TheTechne well when I first clicked on one of your videos I immediately thought, "oh this guy seems like the Ali-A, tmartn type. And nobody likes those guys anymore." But I quickly realized that youre just a level headed dude that gives entertaining reviews. Don't worry. People always say that I look like I hate the world. But it's just my normal facial expression.
there are some points of this channel that makes me cant believe it anymore. long time reviews.. you just hype the stuff up and dont say anything about how fast some of them dont work anymore for some reason or just break
This is what I was looking for . Just got the headset and was hoping it would work on ps5/Xbox series x but it seems it does not work on Xbox and that really sucks
1 more today, Techne Talks still posting today at 3pm CT :) th-cam.com/video/jJj0iwwxLmI/w-d-xo.html
Can't wait.
I love the series keep it up please
Two for one! 🔥🔥

Same, just got an email for this headset 1 minute ago, googled for a review, and found this 5 minute new review. Awesome.

thank you. not every product is great, or good
I liked the wireless Elo's way more, These headphones were a massive miss. We need lighter Elo's with mesh earcups and No RGB.
I love the Roccat name part
Been waiting for this
as always thanks for your honest direct reviews! real does makes the difference.

Gonna be seriously hard to beat some Audeze Penroses with some Wicked Cushions... nice review thooo as usual
man, it really is!
How are they playing on the phone? any good?
Is there any difference between the Roccat Syn Headset and Roccar Elo Air? Which one is better?
@the techne Can you set the sond on PC and then have the tweaked sound saved when plugging it into PS5?
For a minute i thought we had the arctis pro wireless vs corsair virtuoso xt vs audeze penrose standoff 😬😬😬😬🙄
Try using bass tests to see how far down the headphones will dig. Many on TH-cam available, and I use them to test subwoofers
just ordered it for 70$ and i hope the sound is good like my old turtle Beach 700 g2

These have the best noise isolation I’ve heard. Better than Razer, Steel series, Logitech, and Corsair.

And happy Father’s Day
No and thank u
i just found you by accident and jeez sir ur hilarious. you just got a sub
thank you so much for the support!
I like a little lighting on my keyboard, occasionally on the mouse, if it's wired.
But RGB on a wireless headset, you wouldn't see? I don't get it.
question which headset would you get corsair virtuoso se, arctis 7p or arctis prime for ps5 gaming mainly cod but want bits of bass
7p
