Well I must say that the critical to this Product are unrealistic.First at all, I bought this headset mainly to be used for Online games( WoW, LoL, CoD, Etc.) and second to Skype/Raid call/Team speak/etc. The reason? My Mic (generic stand mic) was a piece of crap. And "YES" I bought a headset just for the "built in/retractable Mic" Because My Old headphones are really good ones but without mic Audio Technica ATH-M50WH Professional Studio Monitor Headphones with Coiled Cable (White) (yes I have a studio headphones for gaming lol).
The day I bought this Headset I said to myself "good bye to the amazing sounding World" but... NOOOO. These Siberia Steelseries are Incredible for the price I barely Notice the difference (maybe is my brain telling me that I'm not using the Audio Technica headphones hahaha)
The Only one thing I complain is.... when U wear this headset for more than 3 hours the pain on your ears will Increase slowly to such point that you have to remove it from your ears, and as gamer taking off your headset its A BIG PROBLEM for you and your team because this break the communication, the game continuity, the game experience etc.
That is my complain, no matter the size of your ears or your head sooner or later this headset will make your ears CRY, plus they dont come with an ear cushion replace
*MYTHS and TRUTHS*
The headset will not cover completely your ears and will fall if you move = False... unless you are Dumbo ears lol or the MAD
magazine guy
These headset are made of cheap/fragile plastic = False... Maybe are not the best material in the world but doesn't fell cheap or
fragile.
The Clicker Thing on the cable doesn't Work on the iPhone/iPod/iPad = False... Every function of the Clicker works: play/pause
next, previous, volume up/down, forward/rewind.
The PC Version is better than this = Didn't test it in real life but the Technical sheet says that are the same except for the
connector plug and longer cable in the PC version.
Full Exterior Sounds isolating = Not at all... you decide if this is a pro or con.
The mic is bad quality = Compared to my previous mic This thing is heavenly, as anecdote one day a friend of mine Noticed
That I farted "lol lol lol"... If someone speak next to me my friends hear it, this thing is realy sensitive, but the
nice thing is that the Mic doesn't capture "NOISE". I must say that I play on a really quiet room, the only noise that exist
are my fingers hitting the keys and clicking.
The expandable neckband loose strength with the use = Well... I have it for 2 months of continuous use and its stretch my
head like the first day.
My recommendation if u are used to wear a headphone/headset for more than 3 or 4 hours don't buy this neckband headset unless u can manage the pain that u will suffer at 3 or 4 hours of wearing it. On the other hand the headset looks really cool on you, My Wife loves it. the mic is flexible and retractable.
Note: I preferred this iPhone/iPod/iPad version because of the price, this one is cheaper than the PC version, its come with a standard combo audio/mic Plug used on any iPhone/iPod/iPad or cell phone headset. I solve the Combo Jack to PC problem with this JLab USB VOIP Dongle Skype, and Google Voice it was an amazing solution and also a new USB sound card :D
P.S. Sorry for my English I'm not native :=(
I hope this was useful to you.
Great sound per steelseries reputation
Nice length chord
Attractive finish
Cons -
Really heavy ear weights which slip off ears
Impractical for prolonged use (runs hot in the ears, and there's lingering pain from the weight on the top of the ears)
Joints to neckband are made of plastic (expect it to break within the year)
Overall: There are better priced and more comfortable options. If you're looking for a neckband, find something lighter on the ears (logitech and plantronics have some good options).
Buy SteelSeries Siberia Neckband Headset for Apple iPad, iPod, and iPhone (White) Now
Pros:Clear clear clear sound!
Bass is just enough
In the middle:
Headphones don't go loud
Because they don't go loud, playing them with a bass booster equalizer will distort the bass and is quite a nuissance
Cons:
Mic DOESN'T work for anything but the iPhone
+/and pause do NOT work for the oldest iPod Video 30GB
THEY FALL OFF YOUR HEAD THEY DON'T STAY ON AT ALL, YOU SPEND MORE TIME ADJUSTING THEN U DO LISTENTING
Guys, they had a great great great idea...but they took it and threw it out. The neckband would be perfect, if only it fit someones head. I tried countless friend's heads, they all noticed it slipping right away. :( Returned em'Good sound. Comfortable for long periods of time vs other over the ear headsets. Retractable mic is a great feature.
