The design of the Siberia V2 is one of the best around, being light enough and with sufficient ear padding to be comfortable for extended use, but also flexible enough to be very robust indeed. The elasticated headband ensures that you don’t pick up your headset after someone else has borrowed it and have to do the “dance of the ear-piece height” to get it comfortable again.

The microphone is the standard SteelSeries retractable one which stays where you put it but equally slides away neatly for when you don’t.
