SteelSeries 5H v2 is one of the most popular gaming headsets on the planet. This headset has been used by talented gamers to win major international events like Electronic Sports World Cup, World e-Sport Games, World Series of Video Games, Kode 5, World Cyber Games, Samsung Euro Championship, ESL Extreme Masters and many others.
When wearing the SteelSeries 5H v2 you'll immediately notice the enormous full-size ear cushions which gently fit around your ears and reduce background noise. The comfort is something that has to be experienced first hand, either at a friends house or at one of the many LAN-centers and Internet cafées that offers the headset to their customers.
The headset features a custom-engineered soundscape designed to enhance performance and immersion in FPS games. This headset was developed and optimized specifically for in-game sound frequencies found in the most popular shooters - making in-game sounds like footsteps, alerts and gunfire especially clear. You will be able to hear and pinpoint the location of your opponents, often before they hear you.
The SteelSeries 5H v2 can easily be dismantled into 3 separate parts, that easily fit into a bag or a carrying case. This makes transportation of the headset both easy and safe. The pull-out microphone is practically invisible when not in use.

English review by ThinkComputers (Rating: 10/10 - Recommended Award)
"SteelSeries felt they needed to prove themselves with this headset after the problems they incurred with the first version. After going back to the drawing board, they improved and built upon every aspect of the 5H. They came away with a truly great product in the 5Hv2. With features like a retractable microphone, braided cord, superior comfort, and an overall amazing sound quality; the 5Hv2 is easily in the upper echelon of gaming headsets. SteelSeries made a great comeback with this product, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone in the market for a high quality gaming headset. Overall ThinkComputers give the SteelSound 5Hv2 headset a perfect 10 out of 10 and our Recommended Award."
