There is a pretty good deal atm on this headset and been thinking about getting my first wireless headset for a while. Am curious about how it runs on Linux, as I’ve seen some controversy on this headset on website that shall not be named, but that was 3 years ago now. I dont expect to be running their propriety software for equalizing sound - but would like to know if the headset performs as it should out of the box and if the additional sound system works well. If anyone has any experience with this i’d be more than happy to hear about it. Other headset recommendations welcome to (wireless though) :)

    The mic sounds fine. You can find samples online, ofc, but people have never complained that I’m unclear or quiet. It’s not as good as the wired sets, and I think that’s down to the wireless connection, but it serves the purpose of communication, and doesn’t pick up on too much background noise, either.

    The charge port not being USB C is unfortunate, but my G915 keyboard is also still micro usb.

    Unfortunately neither peripheral has a newer equivalent that is as good.

      Yeah, comes at a cost - I still might get these though, seem exactly what I need, and I really just want something that works out of the box with no additional software needed.
