The USB dongle is huge, like leaves a good 2 inches stuck out of the USB port. I actually broke my dongle by sliding my chair and catching it. The customer service was GREAT. Even though it was clearly my fault and I admitted it they took care of me no hesitation.
If my pair broke tomorrow I'd go right out and buy a new set.

I have the Cloud II version, have had for a year. Upgraded my setup to full wireless, and have loved the wired versions so stuck with these for wireless and have been thoroughly impressed. Fairly lightweight, comfy, decently premium feeling, great sound and mic.
Even cheaper if the same coupon code applies, should be around 68 bucks:

The new headset is infinitely more comfortable, tho the ear pieces are slightly smaller. They feel so solid being metal yet the headband is flexible. No RGB lighting which aids the really high battery life. When over your ears it really blocks out outside noise naturally. They just work the second you plug them in even if you don't want to install the ingenuity software.
There are a couple good guides for setting up the sound settings, but I recommend sound enhancements off, dts off in ingenuity software but selected in sound settings for clearest audio.
I'm super happy with them. I want something that just works and I don't need a feature rich Astro a50 or anything. My personal opinion is "recommend".
