Sound good, firmware horrible
Unfortunately, I have many problems with the headset. The wearing comfort and the sound is great. BUT: About every 2-4 hours the headset loses the connection to the dongle for a few seconds. Regardless of which port I plugged it into. The battery life is promised to be 24 hours. This is only contradicted by the driver software itself, which shows "15 hours left" at 100% battery level. But even these 15 hours never correspond to the truth. When I play for a day (which can happen on weekends), the headset simply turns off after about 6 hours. It can only be turned on again with the charging cable connected. There is also no message a la "you have 10min left, charge your headset now". Not even when the pop-up messages are turned on. The battery indicator is also grossly incorrect. I've never seen a battery level below 50%, and that's always when the headset just went off. Also, the battery level only changes in 25% increments. I find this an imposition and have already written to Roccat support. I would have reported it to Digitec as a warranty case, but on Reddit I find heaps of messages from people who have the same problem. So I'm apparently not the only one and people where everything works great can really consider themselves lucky and pray that their headset does not suddenly decide otherwise.

Quite disappointed
I would have expected better for this price. I find it convenient that the headset can be used wirelessly, but I am not satisfied with the sound at all. Headsets that cost half as much have better sound in terms of output and input....

Always same update without end
Installed at almost every start always the same update 1.23 that sucks tremendously. Disable updates and offline mode brings no improvement.
