4 out of 5 eggsFor the low price, this is amazing.

Pros: For the price, you can't go wrong with how comfortable the headset. The audio quality of the product is pretty decent as well. I usually check up on the bass that the product can give, and I don't think you'll be disappointed that the bass on it is pretty good.

Cons: The only reason why I docked off one egg from my rating is because I feel it's relatively fragile. I bought this product in August of 2012 and it's been through many uses. Recently I found out that wearing the headset became uncomfortable on the top of my head, but I found out that the plastic pieces of top of the headset broke. Now, every time I wear it, the plastic pieces put pressure on my head.

Other Thoughts: You got a low budget and just need a headset? Don't hesitate to buy this product for short/medium-term use.

1 out of 5 eggsWhat a waste of money

Pros: Small and compact
Great when it works

Cons: I have owned this thing for about a week and a half now. During the first week i LOVED it! It was great! Now all of a sudden, this thing barely works. My device will stay connected to it, but the extender gets no type of wifi going to it. I have sat and watched a youtube video buffer for 5 minutes. Horrible.

Other Thoughts: If i just invested $45-$50 on something i now have to throw away, i will be quite upset.

3 out of 5 eggsToo tight

Pros: It works as expected.

Cons: It's sized for a child, and uncomfortable for an adult size head to wear more than a couple minutes.

4 out of 5 eggs

Pros: I tested these at audiocheck.net , and they 'passed' as decent headphones. They easily reach the upper limit of human hearing and has solid bass. In gaming they work adequately with simulated surround. Accurate tone reproduction, pretty even range.
The microphone is just as good as a cheap logitech headset that I use for work.
Really good for the price.

Cons: Using the tests at audiocheck.net, the drivers aren't quite calibrated perfectly. Bass doesn't kick in until slightly over 20hz with that test (if I understand what it does properly, and my hearing is not at fault). Still, the bass is quite strong down to the bottom of what it can reproduce.

The sound is overall decent; but not great. They sound a bit... muffled or 'flat' (not in the pitch sense but in the aesthetic sense). That said, I enjoy listening to music with these.

These didn't work 'over-ear' for me; the pads rested perfectly on my ear, squeezing on my ears for maximum discomfort. I modified them with truly circumaural pads and now I don't notice how hard they squeeze; in fact they're the most comfortable phones I own. I bought these pad replacements from Koss, for 5 bucks a pair.

The line-in on an iMac doesn't work with the 3.5mm microphone jack on this headset.

Other Thoughts: Overall they favor mids and highs. They aren't truly circumaural, but they're not the worst supposedly circumaural phones I've tried.
These headphones use 3.5mm jacks. One for mic and one for output. I ended up having to get a usb adapter for them; reaching behind my case to plug these in would be tedious, plugging in to the front of my case I found lots of artifacts happening when my computer loaded or did anything. Otherwise, I haven't experienced interference since hooking these up with USB.

3 out of 5 eggsMy experience

Pros: These headphones are comfortable with decent sound quality. The cord is more then long enough.

Cons: Fairly small for a person with a larger head.
Mic quality isn't very good.
Sound in the right headphone is going out after only a few months of use.

Other Thoughts: Overall these are okay for the price but I wish they had lasted longer.

4 out of 5 eggs

Pros: For the price, a very solid headset, and definitely comfy for extended use. Especially love the hide-away mic feature.

Cons: The cord is unnecessarily long and winds up very easily, and very often.

Other Thoughts: I've been buying these for a few years, they usually last about eight months to a year, and that's great for the price in my opinion.

1 out of 5 eggsPretty small...

Pros: They work i guess

Cons: The sound quality is super dull. I cant get over the smell...its soo bad i want to throw them away. If your into burnt plastic/rubber more power to you. Very small as well.

Other Thoughts: I understand i bought these for 10 bucks but i never thought they would be so tiny...Pretty janky imo. If your on a low budget get them but dont expect anything out of them. save up 30 bucks and buy something better...First time rosewill has let me down. I will not be using these and i dont see the point in returning them putting more money into shipping. Not worth it.

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Headset on a budget

Pros: Comfortable for hours
Great sound quality
LONG and DURABLE cord (ran over it plenty of times with the wheels on my chair... on tile flooring mind you)

Cons: The first few days I owned them I thought they were made for younger/smaller people as they were incredibly tight. - Set them over a pillow for 2 nights in a row and they loosened right up. Now I can adjust them - so not really a con, just something you should be aware of.

Other Thoughts: I purchased these for gaming purposes at a time when my wallet was stretched very thin. After owning them for just over 2 years, I'd say for only $16 (when I purchased) it was probably the best headset I've ever owned. - Great sound, very comfortable
