There is adjustable microphone monitoring so you can check how loud you’re being which is nice. It’s fine for chat but it will pick up your breath and pop your hard consonants very easily. I’d say one area in which the RIG700 lacks a bit of quality is the microphone. For me personally, they never ran out during a play session if I charged in between and really, that’s all that matters. There’s not much point having a headset with a huge battery that you can’t wear for long periods of time. I will honestly take the slightly shorter battery life for such a light headset simply for comfort. I think there’s a fine balance between battery size and life. They do come with a micro USB input and you can charge and use them at the same time so, absolute worst case, at least you’re not out of the action.Īgain, the battery life being what it is is much more impressive when you remember how little they weigh. The spec sheet boasts up to 12 hours of run time and I think under the right conditions this could be accurate. I found the headset seemed to last about one and a half times longer than my DualShock 4 controller did when they were both fully charged.

I specifically reviewed the PS4 unit which also works on PC. When it comes to battery life, my previous compliment was in no way backhanded. I’ve worn these and had their batteries wear out before I did which is impressive. I’m not too sure how this works but it seems to. Every time I put them on I initially felt like they were a little smaller for my elephantine ears but quickly this dissolved into comfort. The RIG 700 is equipped with some soft, yet firm cans. The second major factor in comfortable headsets are the ear cuffs. Despite still having the cheaper all in one solid headband, the RIG 700 hasn’t yet bothered me. The beam over the top is usually where the pressure starts to build beyond where I’m comfortable. I’m a somewhat sensitive scalped human and I often feel fatigued by headsets fast. This is feather-light for a wireless unit – to the point where you’ll be looking for the wires and the battery. It’s a definite step while still being really quite good for everyday gaming. You can’t expect the quality of a $400 unit and that’s certainly not what this device is. RIG 700 Wireless Gaming Headset ReviewĪs it turns out, you get a fairly decent headset. It also doesn’t quite reach the highs of more expensive devices so I was curious as to what this new step in the ladder could offer. Coming in at just under $200 it’s a bit too expensive for those wanting a decent headset at a lower price. The RIG 700 sits between its siblings as a medium price point. I was suspect of this with the RIG 700 as it seems the awkward middle child in the series. Sometimes it’s baffling to me even after using a product why a company would even bother. Now, often these changes are pointless or incremental. Some market that appears untapped or an improvement to be had to bother marketing a whole new item. Especially one as well established as the RIG headsets. It’s often interesting to me when an established company releases a new product in a series. After using a pair over the past week, I think they might be right.

The RIG 700 series boasts to be among the lightest wireless headsets you can come by.
