Skullcandy x Doritos SLYR review: Affordable multi-platform wired gaming headset with a glow

Our Skullcandy x Doritos SLYR review looks at a vibrant, affordable, entry-level over-ear multi-platform wired gaming headset with UV-reactive Glow Graphics.

Funky UV-reactive Glow Graphics ; Fairly comfortable fit ; Decent sound for the price ; Surprisingly decent microphone quality ; Can be used on multiple platforms ; Reasonably priced

UV-reactive Glow Graphics gimmicky ; Boom mic not bendable/adjustable ; Weak mic monitoring ; No game/chat balance ; Cable can only connect one way ; Ear pads don't offer much in the way of sound buffering so others can hear what you're listening to

The Skullcandy x Doritos SLYR Multi-Platform Wired Gaming Headset is a decent starter gaming headset, especially if you game on multiple devices. With fairly decent sound and a good microphone, you’ll likely impress others if you have a black light set...

Way too heavy with all the cables plugged in.

" In theory I could have made them work with my PC but needed to buy another cable in addition to what is there. Bad design. "

Brilliant bit of kit

" The headset has 3 modes for sound (would recommend the premium mode as the quality of sound is incredible), comfortable and a decent design. The microphone on the headset is clear and hides nicely when not in use. The audio controller seems a bit...
