Pros

  • Nice design.
  • 7.1 Virtual surround.
  • Great mic for the price.
  • Comfortable and cool.
  • Good performance for the price.

Cons

  • Feels budget with mainly plastic build.
  • Foam pop shield doesn’t fit well initially.
  • Rough edged mic connection.
  • Cable is prone to marks and scuffs.

KitGuru says: In conclusion the G2 II USB Gaming Headset by Edifier are worth their price and despite initial apprehension due to being so cheap, the Edifier G2 II's is a decent gaming headset. Build quality and the software could've been better and they aren't the Razer Krakens but let's face it if your in the market for those you wouldn’t be in the market for the G2 II’s . What more can you ask for, for a measly 49.99?
