Gotta have a $35 order to avoid paying shipping. No warranty info available. Must be 100 similar versions on Amazon. My son has blown through so many similar sets, not sure it's going to be any better. No reviews available.

Looks like something from Aliexpress. One link there showed it as $4.50, but not for sale anymore. Another has it for $26.99, but it feels pretty steep at that price... considering that I think you can sometimes get basic Logitechs from Best Buy for around $30.

It appears that it also used to be sold on Amazon. There are a number of reviews (some in other languages) here:

I have a similar one that I bought from Amazon which looks similar with the same alien logo but in blue which is actually very good. I use it for meetings, presentations and audio calls and people have mentioned that my voice quality is very crisp & clear. I am including the link of the one I purchased as a reference. I would pick without hesitation one more at this price point...

Those are the type of headphones you buy and then hope you lose so you can buy some different ones.

Ive gone through several of these cheap headsets since I don't want the kids using my expensive ones and they are not worth the money. Most will develop issues within a year even with light use. Spend just a little more and get something like the Kingston/hyper x brand, even the most basic and cheapest version of those will be a better value long term, sound better and won't cost you an arm and a leg.

Same here, these cheap headsets last my son about 3 months. Bought him some Hyper X stingers on sale for 30$and they are lasting way longer.

Amen to that, why throw away something that for $10-$20 more can easily pay for itself when these cheap junker fall apart within a year?! Today society though is generally people don't do this and just end up buying another, and another and another etc when you can purchase a qaullty unit that will probably be more cost effective in the long run! I spent $120 on some turtle beach 5 years ago, I have no kids and gamed daily for 5 or so hours after work. 10s of thousands of hours and this year the ear cups started to peel apart. I'll be looking at some Astros or something else. Even if I did have kids I would purchase of amazon and buy the extra warranty that covers accidents! Love that program used it many times (square trade) and have nothing but good things to sau
