Endorfy Viro Plus USB Pro Gaming Headset Review
Peter Donnell / 8 months ago
How Much Does it Cost?
The Endorfy Viro Plus USB Gaming Headset is available now on Amazon with an MSRP of just £74.62, which I think is exceptionally good value given the level of features, performance and the sheer volume of accessories that comes included with it. You can also find out further information about this headset on the official Endorfy product page here.
Overview
It seems that Endorfy gets to continue their winning streak, as we’ve reviewed some amazing products for them in recent months, such as the GEM Plus Wireless gaming mouse, the Arx 700 Air Mid-Tower Case, and the Navis F360 AIO Cooler, and plenty more products over the years under the old brand name “SilentiumPC”. While I think it’s fair to say the Viro Plus USB isn’t the greatest gaming headset on the market, it’s pretty damn good, and I think that’s fairly reflected in the price, where it’s going up against the likes of the HyperX Cloud III, Logitech G433, and Corsair HS80 which offer similar performance for similar money, I’d say it’s a great choice for a mid-budget gaming headset.
Endorfy is quickly becoming a cool brand, and it’s easy to see why. This is a great looking headset, and while admittedly it does look similar to the HyperX Cloud, and frankly, quite a lot of brands have borrowed some tips from that design, I’d say it’s arguably a better looking headset overall, with more premium materials and finishes in its construction, it’s a very desirable looking product, but also feels durable and has that premium quality feel to it that’s hard to explain, but it just feels more expensive to hold than you would think.
The sound quality is very bright and clear, surprisingly clear actually given that it isn’t equipped with high-res drivers, but overall the 53mm drivers are bright and clear on their default settings, giving a clarity that’s fantastic for competitive gaming. However, they handle a reasonable EQ well enough, and turning up the bass a little at the cost of some high-end gives them a deeper and warmer sound that’s better for movies and music, or many single-player game experiences.
Should I Buy One?
Endorfy has a good headset here, with a design and build quality looks looks and feels more expensive than it needs to, but that’s no bad thing. The range of extras included certainly adds to the overall value too, with long and short cables for desktop and mobile use, a USB dongle soundcard with 7.1 surround sound, both leather and fabric ear pads, and a detachable microphone, making it easy to setup the headset to suit your needs, and hopefully making it only headset you’ll need for multiple uses.
