This deal was at my Sam's club. Ran into it yesterday. I have Sony XM3 headphones, and while the Razers are good, the XM3's are significantly better, sound quality-wise.

The Razer noise cancelling was good, but not quite as good as the XM3. The noise cancelling reminded me of the Bose QCII 35. If the Bose noise cancelling gets on your nerves after an hour or so, the Razers will too. It's not an issue for many people, I'm just mentioning it for those picky about noise cancelling. The build construction, packaging, button layout, and overall sound is very good. One feature that I LOVED about the Razer is when you take the headphones off, your music automatically pauses. No NFC pairing but I've used that feature all of twice on my Sony's. The Razer had impressive audio codec support such as AAC and APTX. The Razer's are just a little bit smaller and a little tighter on my huge head. Shouldn't be an issue for most.

That being said, for fifty bucks, if you can score these, you can't go wrong. I wouldn't say they're worth more than maybe $100-125 for them, personally. I picked up several pairs to give as Christmas presents. My club had both black and dark blue colors available.

How to these compare to anker q30 for using as a zoom headset? Importance is comfort, sound and microphone. Noise cancellation is of less importance

I had the same dilemma but went with this as it's easy to return to local Sam's. It is very comfortable I use it daily. It has 2 mics on the headphone (not on wire). Except on a windy outside no one complained about my voice/noise. Regarding music it is subjective. It has 5 modes - Bluetooth only, Bluetooth + ANC, wire only, wire + ANC, wire + on. I like flat and when need little bass I switch on ANC. Hope this helps. It can pair only to one device

I use these daily for work and gaming (wired) both are great! The equalizer can be a bit left to be desired but overall I'm satisfied! Steal at 50$. The battery life is true to the specs

These will be less comfortable. Q30 has more room for your ears. Opus has smaller earpads that aren't really 1 size fits all and your ears will be warm. Also, these were $200 back in May and $130 back in November. Wonder why the price is dropping so quick?
