I bought them 3 months ago for 20 euros and I am very satisfied! First of all, their build quality is excellent. My first impression when I took them out of the box was excellent, with the construction materials, soft memory foam cushions, soft headband, and aluminum frame reminding me of the HyperX Cloud 2, which I used for 3 years and decided to replace due to normal wear and tear they have undergone all this time. For their size, they are very lightweight, weighing around 300g, about the same as the Cloud 2, and they remain comfortable even after hours of use, just like the Cloud 2! Additionally, they have large 53mm drivers and a detachable microphone with noise cancellation, just like the Cl...

But is it possible for a pair of 20 euro headphones to be of the same quality as the 80 euro Cloud 2?

Well, no, you get what you pay for, and although their build quality and features are the same as those of the Cloud, the sound quality is inferior, but that doesn't mean it's bad! On the contrary, I am completely satisfied with their sound, both in games and movies, and I believe that an average user looking for "value for money" headphones will be equally satisfied. Their sound is powerful and clear, without any interference or buzzing, and their bass is satisfactory (especially the Cloud is much better in this aspect). The microphone, as others have mentioned, is indeed inferior to that of the Cloud 2, although it didn't bother me as I no longer play multiplayer games. Their most significant drawback, in my opinion, is that they can only be connected via USB, which means their use is strictly limited to PC (they are not compatible with PS4 or 5). That's why I still keep my old, good Cloud 2, which also have a 3.5mm jack!

I should note that they also have a very nice RGB lighting, which you can adjust through the software (latest driver version v.20220622 March 2023) that you can find on the Patriot website. As for the drivers, they are average, and I even recommend preventing them from loading automatically at startup (via Task Manager in Win10 or Apps Startup in Win11) as they consume excessive resources! Besides the lighting, the only things they provide are a mediocre equalizer that I didn't use at all and an option to enable or disable 7.1 sound.

Especially regarding the (simulated) 7.1 surround sound in most games I tried (Dead Space 1-3, Metro 2033, Last Light, Exodus, Skyrim, etc.), I had a better experience considering them as simple stereo headphones rather than 7.1, but this also applies to the Cloud 2 and I would say to most gaming headsets. After all, it is common knowledge that a good pair of stereo headphones can provide better spatial sound than mediocre 7.1 headphones.

Since we've exhausted the matter, let me conclude by saying that I feel like I bought a product that offers more than its price, something rare these days! Especially in terms of build quality, comfort, and isolation from external sounds, I give them a solid 10 and congratulations to Patriot for offering 20 euro headphones that have nothing to envy from headsets costing 80-100 euros! As for the sound, I believe only demanding users will not be satisfied, who will, in any case, look for more expensive products.

This is one of the most "honest" gaming headsets I have ever purchased and I highly recommend them.

The sound is good, but compared to the razer 7.1 that I have, it's day and night, the microphone is external and doesn't attach properly, causing it to fall, the only positive thing is that it's comfortable after hours.
