I have been using and testing the headphones for the second week. Despite the negatives I decided to keep the headphones, but if I was buying at full price (bought unpacked + discount for 2.967, -) I would definitely return them and they do not have that value. Personally, I got mine to be able to play games, make phone calls at the same time and ideally have an overview or the ability to communicate with my surroundings (kids, family, etc. ), without having to take the headphones off all the time. On the whole, they meet it, but it's not perfect and you have to make concessions. Right from the beginning I was impressed by the packaging, nicely processed and almost everything you need is included. The headphones are comfortable, although a bit unsuitable for my small atypical ears (they sometimes fall out of the right ear when eating, yawning, etc. ) even with the smallest plugs. RGB backlighting is a nice thing, but unusable for a normal person and just drains the battery.
The sound quality is not great out of the box, but after turning on the Dirac, or tweaking it, the sound is I would say better than average. Personally, I'm satisfied.
Microphone quality, for calls pretty cool, no one has complained so far, for discord and online gaming it's worse. You're understood, but compared to a microphone in front of your mouth, it's just worse and people notice. However, I use it that way.
The ANC is quite good, but it misses high tones (e.g. children screaming).
Ambient Sound works, but you hear more noise than, for example, the spoken word, also the wind is very audible. However, I converse with my headphones on and don't have to take them off all the time.
The battery life over BT is ok, over 2.4Ghz you have to count on a shorter life, but since I always put them in the case for a while and they charge quickly, it's not a problem.
Multipoint unfortunately can not, they have the so-called Hybrid multipoint, which means that the sound automatically switches between devices, but you can listen to only one source or the other (for example, when you talk you can not hear the game or music from the PC).
ASUS support is horrendous and if the competition had similar headphones I would go to the competition, in my experience as an ASUS user you don't give a shit.
