All the aspects of a gaming headset you'd want - great sound quality, excellent battery life, low latency, etc - but where this headset really shines is the base station. Two batteries are included in the box, and you can hot-swap them to always be topped up with no wires to charge and no downtime. Just take off one of the magnetic side panels, rip out the battery and swap it with the one charging from the base station.
This headset also includes Bluetooth, which is a lifesaver if you want to play a video from your phone, take a phone call, etc. Everything just works and it's so worth the extra price.
There are only two downsides I've experienced after a year of use - if you walk far, far away from the base station and it loses connection completely, there's a chance the headset will make a dangerously loud sound. If you're walking outside your house to take out the bins, it's best to take them off. Also, it's not built for travel - don't expect to take this on the go. It would work, but the headband is solid metal, meaning it's heavy and doesn't fit well into bags - plus the ear cups don't fold, so it'd take up a lot of space.
Overall, it's the last gaming headset you'll need for a very long time. Either run through multiple cheaper headsets, or stick to this one for years.
