 The 90 degree ear cup fold means you can slip it neatly into a bag when you travel and the microphone is both detachable and flexible!

The 5-pole connector is compatible with normal devices like your smartphone, laptop or PC, however the extra grounding keeps the microphone fully isolated, avoiding cross-talk with the headphone channels. The Strix Pro can connect to the most popular gaming platforms; PC, console, tablets and smartphones. The long cables means you can sit at a comfortable distance from your PC or TV to watch a movie or game.

ENC

The dongle is more than just volume control; it includes a microphone that assesses background audio and isolates it from the microphone feed, cancelling it out.  For a gaming PC, typically the control hub can placed on the desk by the gaming keyboard, so it can easily isolate the sound type from the mechanical keys.
