How is the headset overall. Bass, gaming, for movies

From the reviews that I've read and seen on YT, the bass is good thanks to the 40mm drivers being used. I've been personally looking to get a headset for just gaming purposes since I already have Sennheiser HD 203 and Mi Piston for other things. It should be adequate for most stuff I think and if you can set it up to your liking using that Razer surround software I guess performance will be good.

Also these headphones are actually cheaper here in India but in other countries it's quite a bit more expensive and it's quality is often compared to the Logitech G230.

As Nerevarine has posted, do post a short review of whatever you buy

Do not intend to use these for more than 3 hours+ on a single usage. You have to give your ears rest after some times since they became uncomfortable to use but overall it is a great pair of headphones.

On the other day i went to Philips arena, they dont have stock of SHG7980 but had this
Buy Philips SHG7210/10 Over-Ear Headphone with Mic (Black) Online at Low Prices in India - Amazon.in

and they priced me 1900 :shock:

How was the sound quality of Philips? Did you buy it for 1900 or just got the quote?

Plantronics is a well known brand when it comes to headsets. Try to search for 307 model reviews. 308 is a successor to that. I think the 308 is really good for it's price since it does come with 40mm drivers, cloth based pads(comfortable for longer usage compared to leather based ones especially in the summer) and noise cancelling microphone.

I didn't buy he was quoting 700 more.

Will look for 307 reviews

3.5mm or USB port which is better

Much more easier to use with portable devices and along that in DAC it is always useful to have a 6.3mm jack for that oomph.
