Let me just say that first of all, I am so very happy with this product.
I'm a college student who purchased these in a fit of panic on the advice of a very good friend because my building was TEARING the balconies off of the side of my place and I desperately needed something to help me at least TRY to hear my classes and the test I had the two days I was in a panic about.
They didn't completely eliminate the noise, but took out at least 70% which gave me a breather.
I ordered them one day and received them the next. I also have a Razer keyboard which I LOVE, so I trust this brand. It was a very desperate and quick purchase, but I am so very happy with it. Especially as someone who wears glasses, the ear pads don't press them into my temples and give me frontal lobe migraines like a lot do. I barely feel them, it's astonishing!
They're very light, comfortable, and they black and green match my HP gaming laptop which was another selling point for me, lol. If you're looking for a beginners' headset, these are awesome. Also, I have a small head so I'm wearing them as tight as they can go, lol.
