3.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser10/11/2020They're okay but not worth paying the full $50Pro's: Very comfortable, Easy to attach, works with the Oculus Quest 2 elite strap, aesthetically pleasing design looks great on the Quest 2 Con's: Small soundstage, Hard to pin point location of sounds, poor bass response. They're okay for what they are and they get the job done but personally I believe they shouldn't be charging more than 30 bucks for these below average headphones , Really only got them because of their unique look and combination with the Quest 2. 3/5 starsAngel

4.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser07/17/2020Great audio solution for the Rift SThe halo speakers built into my Oculus Rift S is passable but not great -- especially for games like Beat Saber where the music plays a leading role. Using my existing computer headphones was not an option because because of the headband, so I sought out another solution. Before I bought these, I tried using some Koss Porta Pros as they were recommended for their great audio and a headband that fit go over the Rift S -- however, I found it inconvenient not having them attached to the unit, and there was a lot of extra wire to deal with. There are some mods you can do to attach them, but didn't want want to deal with that, plus none of them looked very good IMO. Enter the Bionik Mantis. It attaches perfectly to the band on my Rift S and it the was easy enough to get the little bit of extra wire out the way with a few small black zip ties. I could do more to make it look a little better (and even paint the grey parts black) if I so desired, but as is they look decent on the Rift S. They feel very sturdy and attached well to the headset, and the "stem" has enough adjustment to it that it takes just a second to get them in the right place after putting on the headset. These rest against your ears rather than over them. This of course means you can hear more external noise, which may be a negative to some, but I prefer to be able to hear what's going on around me when in VR. I wouldn't necessarily say I'm an audio snob or anything, but sound is definitely important to me. I have a high-end 5.2.2 custom home theater setup and some very good headphones and speakers for my desktop. These are not high end speakers by any means, nor do they sound like them, but they do the trick for me for the purposes of VR. Sounds better and gets louder than the Rift S built-in speakers -- and while they don't sound as good as the Koss Porta Pros I initially tried, the convenience of having them attached to the headset wins out for me. Bass is not great, but was improved by turning on Bass Enhancement in the Windows sound settings. Complaints? I wish they had an option to get them in black, but I do realize they were designed to match the PSVR rather than the Rift S. I also think they are tad pricey for what they are -- but I guess being one of the only shows in town (for some reason) for this type of product means they can name their price however they want.Gabriel

2.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser10/17/2019They work, but the wiring is poor.First - I have to say they work. And they're not too uncomfortable, but . . . . And this is a big negative. You would think that headphones made specifically for the Playstation VR headset would have wiring that matched the design of the Playstation VR headset. I wound up taping and wrapping wires to get them out of the way. My headset looks like it got run over by a truck and I repaired it with masking tape. Very poor planning or design by Mantis.biglarrr
