Steelseries 5H V2 USB Gaming Headset Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

I’m demoing a product that I’ve actually been using for a while (without the USB dongle, which works great and didn’t even need me to download drivers btw) and I have to say that besides maybe the Siberia V2, the 5H V2 is the most comfortable headset out there for gaming. Yeah the performance isn’t that great for music, but since most people don’t listen to music for 5+ hours in a row, and many people game for that long, comfort is FAR more important than sound quality for a gaming headset.

Overall I’d say I’m impressed with the product. Tracking is flawless with my Ikari Laser and with my G9 even at very low CPI/DPI settings. My one criticism is that the surface is a little bit too fast for me compared to the QCK I’m using now. Not enough friction. That should be GREAT for people who are trying to make the transition from a hard smooth surface to cloth though!
