The open design is also really nice for when you are talking into the microphone

I'm a dad, and the open-back design is very important to hear for a kid that woke up from a nightmare or a wife that needs help with, well

Perfect design, weight and feel

The open design is great for keeping your ears ventilated

As far as sound isolation, these headphones are designed to allow you to hear your surroundings, not for good isolation

Not sure if it is a design thing or an actual crack

IF you don't have much noise around you (i.e. you can carry on a conversation with someone next to you as though you're not wearing headphones).GAME ZERO: closed design, hotter and GREAT passive noise isolation.

The design is really nice.

The open back design is just super cool to me

You cannot beat the quality, features and beautiful design of this headset

; it's warmth, depth, crispiness, and sweetness it leaves you with, will leave your ears soothed.-Comfortable and light, airy so your ears stay cool.-Nice design, sturdy.-Very nice microphone, noise canceling works amazing.-Braided cable, plenty long, with detachable end meeting the left can.-mic mute and volume control (it's independent from windows btw) is very handy!Cons:-nothing worth mentioning

I love the open back design

These are purely a cash cow, no innovative drivers or design, nothing we havent seen for the past 3 years with the pc350, 360, 363d etc

The Golds were pretty amazing, but the sturdiness was a little disappointing, almost like they were designed to break eventually

Great design

LOVE the open air design

However, you should be aware that the openback design will be a problem if you have a lot of background noise

I thought this headset was sleek, well designed, and sturdy

Other than that, I enjoy the open ear/air design and wouldn't change anything about these for the world

I, myself actually prefer an open-acoustic design as I believe it improves sound quality and provides a larger and fuller soundstage

The mic mutes itself if folded back up, and this design is bound to fail at some point as it is mechanical and likely not easy to repairBottomline: $180 for a gaming headset is not worth it

Now, for the sound, I love the open-back design of these

Love the open ear design

The oval design on the headphone makes them a lot more comfortable the a round design, because their not sitting on the ear at all it’s souronding the ear

Open design with the Dolby Atmos settings in Overwatch are amazing

The volume control on the right ear is a very good design and allows you to easily get the volume right and is easy and natural to use.

I also really like the simple design free of spectrum lighting and the feel of the plastic which is thick and slick

Other comments: The open-back design let's outside noise in, which is great if you want to be aware of what's around you, but not great if you want to block out noise

The open design is not only more comfortable but it allows you to be able to have a conversation with your wife in between games so that she can retrieve you a frosty beer without having to take them off.
