    SteelSound 3H Gaming Headset Review


    (Page 1 of 5 )

    In the gaming world, products must have two very important features: performance and portability. SteelSeries has always been dedicated to the gaming community by producing products for and by professional gamers. Today we’ll be looking at the SteelSound 3H headset, the latest in gaming headsets available by SteelSound.

    At first glance you can tell this headset is different.  Even in the packaging you can see it in its collapsed position. This headset collapses down further than any similar product I’ve seen, but we’ll talk more about that later.

    First, let’s take a look at the product features and specs from the SteelSeries website to see what the company advertises this headset can do.

    SteelSound 3H at a glance*:

    • Foldable/collapsible lightweight gaming headset
    • Retractable non-directional microphone system
    • Comfortable to use, easy to transport
    • Developed in cooperation with professional gamers
    • Strong bass for optimal in-game sound projection
    • 40mm SteelSound SunDancer(LCP) Units
