Great sounding headphones with some big flaws

Verified Purchase:Yes
THE GOOD: Awesome bass, crisp highs and impressive 7.1 sound; Easy-to-use software with tons of options; Comfortable fit with enough can space to cover the biggest ears; Passable noise cancelling; Programmable buttons; An equalizer!
THE BAD: Microphone intermittently stops working during some games; USB only, meaning your fancy $200 sound card is effectively out of the equation; Randomly loses connection when more than 15ft away from the receiver dongle; Questionable use of cheap plastic parts on certain sections of the headphones; Waking PC from sleep mode can cause the G930's software to freeze; After several weeks of use, my headphones are now shutting off at random times.
These are fantastic-sounding headphones, but I can't recommend the G930s unless long-term build quality is not a concern for you. If you're only looking for something that sounds good, go for it; otherwise, wait for another price drop and some serious software fixes, or look for something else.

Do these continue to randomly turn off when charging?
I see that the largest problem with these seems to be that they randomly turn off throughout their lifespan. Does this occur still when they are plugged in and charging, or do they only cut off when they are not plugged in? I know my Astro A50s will turn off if they do not detect sound after a minute or 2.
They don't really turn off "randomly". The G930s are programmed to shut off after 45 minutes, but it's not consistent. Also, my set seems to shut off when the wifi signal in my apartment weakens - not sure if that's a common complaint or not.

Enjoy rich, lush audio with these surround sound speakers that feature 75W RMS power. A down-firing, ported subwoofer with a 5-1/2" driver controls powerful sound. The dedicated bass controller lets you customize the bass level to your liking.
Xbox support?
So I found out that my xbox one only supports S/PDIF speakers, so can I connect this speakers to my xbox one ?
No SPDIF input, unfortunately. You'll probably have to spend a few bucks more for speakers that support that function.
