Sennheiser GAME ONE Gaming Headset Review 

can we just appreciate that this guy even set a timeline for everything :D thanks i subbed as well

I've had these for about over a year. Definitely, recommend them. Does it have streaming and content quality mic ability? Nuh. Not really. But in terms of gaming, and using it as an in-game mic to talk in gaming lobbies. I've had nothing but a huge amount of compliments of the sound of this headset. Even just hopping into a random overwatch lobby, immediately getting praise when they hear my voice. When it comes to in-game mics, it's no secret that they serve one purpose usually. Getting your voice across. So game lobbies and the like are just over saturated with scratchy and noisy audio. So in that regard, your teammates will greatly appreciate the quality of your voice. Just like he said though, these headphones are going to be best for the kind of people who want to be conscious of their surroundings. Hearing people around you as they talk to you (as long as the audio is not blasting at max) and hearing yourself talk is just always a plus. I will admit one drawback that I have with these headphones, In competitive scenarios. I don't quite feel like it has the spacial awareness as others. Surround sound feels, not bad but. Less noticeable. Its there, you hear it. But in situations when you're in the middle of a field and want to hear a guy walking up on you. It's going to be a lot harder to detect those sounds IMO. But maybe that could just be my poor sense of awareness. Still, the pros greatly outweigh that one con. As someone who used these as their daily driver for the past year, I definitely agree with what he says in the video. (Although I personally feel like my mic sounds a bit better ;p)

For comfort, I don't think wearing a beanie under the headset is the best idea.

Your reviews are really high quality. Thank you!

does anybody knbow the difference between the game one and "epos i game one"? This is so confusing I'm about to just avoid sennheiser all together.

I have 6 different Sennheiser headphones, and have run tests on all of them. The "Sennheiser veil" is a myth. There is no V-shaped drop in the treble region, in any of them. Good review, though. I bought the GameOne, and am mostly happy with them.

Great job as usual. We have a problem I hope you can help us with. We do a radio show and frequently have guests who absolutely refuse to stay close enough to standalone mics. Often they are a bit older and uncomfortable with the idea of being in front of a mic anyway. We get frequent complaints about the in-again, out-again volume, and sometimes reminding the guest to speak into the mic annoys them and changes the tone of the interview. Of course we've tried to compensate with tricks, but the noise and other side effects are not desirable. Here's my latest idea: a good quality headset mic, perhaps with headphones. The priority for us is the mic quality; the headphones just have to be good enough to hear the other voices in the discussion. Any suggests for someone in our shoes?

5:44 Glad someone else finally mentions that!! People praise the cheap headset mics without mentioning they pick up everything.

Did that box even land or is it just floating in mid air 😂 guess the headset does a good job of cutting out box falling sounds 🤷‍♂️

I have the Game Zeros and love them for gaming. I've been using them non-stop for over 2 years on my XBox and really just enjoy them.

I have owned these for about a year and I love them, they are far better than the turtle beach I owned. I use them for console playing. The negatives that comes to mind are, the mic picks up noises from quite a far distance away, friends can hear crickets from outside my house. Secondly the plastic over time gets squeaky and just noisy, it is noticeable with minimal head movement. Overall I have zero regrets about this purchase. Thank you for the review, just thought I would share my experience.

I have the DROP (yellow) variant of these headphones. Bass is "fixed" by using a headphone amplifier. They "wake up" nicely with some wattage.

Nice review man. These get more comfortable the more you use them.

LOL I was looking for the sound test but then realized skipping around that he is using the headset for the mic NICE

Not mentioned in this video is that your game can actually be heard despite being on the flipped up mute. Your friends on the other end of the headset can hear your game on your end.

Would you recommend this headset for an immersive realistic experience? (I play games like gta and batman arkham games)

for my personal pair, I went on amazon to find a compatible cooling gel replacement earcups cushions, because i personally exhaust a good amount of heat from my head & the heat builds way to quickly in warmer months, gettting very uncomfortable quickly

Thank you for doing a headset mic review. Would be helpful if you can review or reccomend a great setup up comparison. Not all of us have a soundproof room and ambient sound rejection.

Really great video. Is a noise cancelling mic necessary with an open back headset? Not sure of a regular mic would pic up sounds from the headset

Bruh the mic sounds good to me, I just bought some and the only cons I’m seeing here is that the frame is plastic and that the wire is connected to the headset. I can’t wait to hear the quality tho 🔥🦾

You should review the MPOW EG3 and Purple Panda

what I would appreciate from headphones review is to say the following: this is how I felt after 1 hour of wearing them, after 3 hours, after 5 hours..maybe it's just me who is comfort sensitive, I don't know, it's never covered by anyone. You can be a casual gamer 1-2 hours ever so often or hardcore 3-4 hours every other day, they might be awesome for a casual gamer, but get so uncomfortably hot for longer sessions which is a dealbreaker no matter how quality they are, don't you agree?

Great vid, really enjoyed the review. I love Sennheiser headphones, I have a pair of PXC 550’s, I know they’re not for gaming, but they’re awesome. But like you said I hate that proprietary cable. BTW, I think that was your best box throw in a while👍.

hey I just got these headphones and was wondering since there's no cds or anything do I need to download drivers or anything to get the headphones to work better? (cause like in some songs like Chopin:Nocturne #20 sometimes there's static noises (I've only noticed this in that song thoe so it's not really a problem))

My dumbass watching a review on something I already bought.. lol. I agree with everything said. I actually used Equalizer APO to tune the phones & microphone and they sound way better, like night and day. Admittedly though, you shouldn't have to eq a headset. lol

6:22 (regarding sound stage and positioning) not "CONSIDERING" but "BECAUSE" it is (not "just") an open back headset. Thats the strong point of these types.

Excellent review. Very professional.

Good day Podcastage. I don't know how to suggest a review but theres a curious audio interface mostly known simply as V8 audio interface. It's a chargable adio interface that is compatible with phones and PCs and I think you will do the best job explaining it. Thank you very much!

Wow this headset looks great! Question any chance you could do a tutorial video on audacity to what to do do get the sound quality like yours? I do use audacity but not sure if Im using the effect settings right. Thanks in advance ✌🏻

HyperX Cloud Flight Or These? Everyone says every headset sucks on every youtube video it’s honestly hard to choose which is the best.... when everyone says theyre all bad........

Do the provided cables connect to a PS-4 controller ?

Do you know if he is going out of line, or if there is a possibility that he will be back in stock in stores?

It sounds better connected to the motherboard. I wonder if it would sound even less bad connected to an audio interface with the VXLR+ adapter.

Hey Bandrew, can you review Beyerdynamic MMX 300 2nd Generation and Sennheiser GSP 300?

Whats the best microphone for recording deep voices and streaming?

Excellent, informative review. Question about the leakage. I listen/game at a pretty low volume. Will others in the room be able to hear what I am listening to?

You stated that there are better gaming headset microphones. Which ones do you recommend for anyone looking for a decent headset and better mic quality?

Can u suggest us a better headset alternative in your opinion? Maybe the SteelSeries Arctis Pro (cable)? Pls test it. Btw nice review as always.

Can you monitor your own voice while recording?

When you say "boosted in post" what does that mean eaxactly? Just uping the gain by 3db? Never understood the difference between gain and audio level so this always gets me a bit confused.

Sounds like a headset.

If you review more gaming headsets, reviews on the GSP 300, GSP 500, and GSP 600 would be great!

Wait. Is it bi-directional??

Open or closed acoustic for gaming like BO4 and fortnite ?

Just bought these today, upgraded my old sennheiser g4me 360 ones which lasted for 8 years until my mic actually fell off :D also the earcups started to wear off, revealing the foam inside

Out of curiosity. Did you try them on the xbox? I have been switching between headphone on the play anywhere titles between the xbox and pc. The sound is completely different between the 2.

I don't get the issue with low frequencies loss. Can I turn the bass up with an EQ?

I recorded videos with the game zero mic but now i only use it as my primary headphones, baby bottle SL baby!!

Banging on a keyboard with those cherry mx blues

PLEAASSSSee help me. These, the Arctis pro, the audio technica m50x, or the hyperx cloud alpha. I have heard some pros ans cons for all of them, and every time i see a bad review i change decision and i CANT DECIDE

Plz can u review ( the mxl 440 ) Its mxl and its really cheap

Can you tell me what "gaming" heaphones have better mic quality?

I wanna get this for talking in game and light streaming right now I got a sennheiser hd 429 is it worth the upgrade?

I have the game zeros and they are great just pair it with a good Mix amp and use the 3.0m wire with it

Podcastage.. Please help I have tried to reach Sennheiser directly and read every article about these headphones there is. They are my favorite headphones but for some reason anytime that I use the headphones in a discord call the people in the call can hear everything that im listening to as if it were coming through as a direct audio input. It even does this when the mic is muted. I cannot find any solution. Please Help. I have even tried multiple computer and 6 different pairs of Senheiser Game Ones

Can this guy please do a video on the EPOS H3PRO Hybrid?

I was gonna take this as a model for reviewing products and he set the bar so high, I'm thinking it is best to just make sure about the kinds of reviews out there before starting to write a review..

Can i use the headset and mute the mic or deaktivere the and use my razer mic that i have on a boom arm ?

are these still a good pick up?

Does the mic work when only connecting 3,5 mm jack

I plugged these in my pc with the mic and headset duel cable and they can’t hear me apparently 😢

The clamp will decrease over time, which happened with my headphone. This headphone is based on the HD598/HD558, and I got the latter listed, and the audio quality is really good. The microphone of course is a different matter compared to dedicated ones, but surprisingly, the audio quality is quite decent. At least it's a clear audio. For my headphone, I have a corrected EQ that lifts the veil and makes everything more "flat"/balanced

Does the Sabrent USB Soundcard fit fine on the ps4 usb port? (The usb port on the right side of the disc slot)

Am i the only one who’s right earmuff doesn’t work Edit: let me know if this is normal please P.S I’m on console

The mic on this headset is perfect for covering The Strokes' early songs.

I'd like a review of the the creative k3+

What's your motherboard? Sounds surprisingly decent.

Great review, thank you

All I care is about pin pointing the enemies and which direction I’m getting shot from do these do the job xo sevens did but they broke

does the mic have a sidetone when u talk? where u can hear ur own voice when u talk?

What USB mic would you recommend for gaming/discord? Since these don't seem up to snuff. Your recommended ones on your website are very expensive in the UK. (Mainly the Audio-Technica ones and the Samson Q2U which is 70 pounds) Do you know of any affordable ones in my region? MPM1000U and MPM2000U are affordable at £50 and £80 respectively but I'm unsure if they're suitable for what I want?

What headset has the best mic quality?

is there a way to remove the mic from the headset

where can I get the aux cord for the headset if it didn't come in the box? Its a refurbished model and it didn't come with the headset for some reason

Hello, what would be the best mic for streaming computer games for something about 90$?

I picked this at $78, instead of the Cloud Revolver S, did I make the right choose?, anyways thanks for your review!

Hi! Im having a issue with my mic on a sennheiser game one headset. I tried to stream but there is a white noise thats irritating af, and I don't know where it comes from. The headset is expensive so I dont know why this happens. Also in game on CSGO people complain all the time.. they make it sound like it's really bad. Any ideas??

I have zero interest in gaming headsets. I am here just to wish you a merry christmas! I hope this holiday finds you in good health, surrounded by friends and loved ones. Thanks for a year of knowledge and humor. Peter Y.

is the headset itself noise cancelling?

Whats currently the best sound card?

i like your delivery and editing style, nicely done

How can I fix my echo with this headset on xbox

Does it have surroundsound?

Anything as good but costs less?

love your vids but i think if you change your background youll get more subs and views

Is it full plastic or is there a metall headband

I'm severely disappointed you didn't test it for mic'ing your guitar amp.

Can you make a Genesis Radon 600 review

The only thing that annoys me about my Game One's is you cannot remove any of the velour pads. Sure they probably will hold up better than any faux leather but they will soak up a lot of sweat, grime and skin/hair oils over its use.

What jacks are they are they trs trrs ts

this or mh752?

i have this headset, its set to the smallest settings and feels perfect but hey people are different

What's up with that channel's profile pic? The SSN lads wanted an updated photo of yours? 😂😂😂😂😂

These things have the best microphones

Applejack said? "How'd you like them apples" then you said? 2:02 "How do you like them apples"

im an affiliate on twitch, and have been streaming a lot and the quality of the microphone has never been brought to my attention by anyone

Do you know where to get the driver from?

Is that headset a adjustable mic

Does it have mic monitoring?

You have a huge head man
