KitGuru says: While we think the GH300 has a slightly better aesthetic with the classic red and black theme, plus 7.1 virtual surround sound, we actually think the GH200 is a better offering. It's cheaper while offering a better microphone and better connectivity options via the 3.5mm and splitter cable.
