Instead, if I could redo this situation, I would buy the USB version of this headset, especially if you are using these headsets for PC only.
The great part about this headset is that you can use them for Xbox One and Apple products (iPhone). The microphone for both of these aren't that good but it does the job (On everything else except my Laptop). The headset also has pretty good sound for games like Counter-Strike: GO. The sound quality for music isn't that great but it does the job.
I think after using this I would just get Astro, Steel Series, or the USB Razer headset. Honestly as long as it isn't hassle free.
Lifetime: 2 months
InGame Quality: Really Good
Microphone Quality: Poor (far behind poor in my case)
Performance: Poor (Sometimes I would have to restart my laptop to get these headphones working)
Update 6/10/16: After bagging on these headsets for a while I finally got them to work. A friend recommend me to download a certain driver for the headsets and my laptop and they work perfectly fine now. After using them for about 2 weeks I've drawn some conclusions. First, the headsets, after about an hour or two, hurt my ears and I have to take them off for a little bit to ajust my hair/ears. This could be because I don't use them enough and it just needs to expand, but they get very uncomfortable after a couple hours anyhow. Second, from going from a stereo headset to a 7.1 headset the quality for sounds in games isn't there. However, music sounds even better than before on these headsets. Third, these headsets are kind of heavy and another reason why they are a little uncomfortable. Fourth, for me personally I like how far the wires go but it could interfere with things like a rolling chair and walking around. And lastly, I enjoy how compatible it is with other products but it was kind of a hassle to get these things working in the first place with my laptop.
I have dropped these headphones many times and the sound sounds the same from when I bought them they are super durable and flexible if you have a big head.
Would reccomend
The speakers sound as if they are being driven through a thick, foam mattress. The bass is so completely muddy and overpowering that they are virtually unusable without applying EQ. The earpads are dense and uncomfortable. I cannot wear the headset for over 45 minutes or so before having to rest my sore ears. The mic quality is poor, and picks up sounds from the left earphone. If I make a voice call, the person on the other end can hear themselves feeding back into the mic.
They do feel somewhat solidly made, which is a shame because they're such garbage in every other aspect. As I have said, a clear example of style over function. They came in fancy packaging with all sorts of marketing BS. After a few months of owning these, I broke down and paid a bit more for a pair of Sennheisers which have been much, much better. The Sennheisers came in a plain cardboard box with virtually no branding...
