SteelSeries TUSQ

The SteelSeries TUSQ In-Ear are fair for wired gaming. These simple, wired gaming headphones have a comfortable fit and a boom microphone that can capture your voices clearly and accurately. However, the mic struggles to separate your voice from moderate ambient noise around you. The buds also lack any sound customization features, so you won't be able to change their sound to your liking.

The SteelSeries Tusq excels where it really matters: microphone quality. With the boom mic attached, you’re getting the performance of a full-size headset in a tiny form factor. While the build could use some improvement, this is a very strong pair of wired gaming earbuds.
