Unlike the SteelSound 5H V2, however, is that the clear plastic packaging is glued to the cardboard at the back and not a flap withheld box. Specifications and elaborated information are printed at the back along with the "Frag You" stamp as with all their new products. Similar to the company's SteelSound 5H V2, the retail package has a clear window directly showing the product along with a burgundy and dark grey color scheme. It smelled pretty bad, so I recommend you leave it somewhere in your basement or some well ventilated area away from you for a few days before usage if you cannot bear the smell. On a side note, upon opening the retail package (Not the box itself), we noticed some sort of strong plastic or chemical smell. Quite a delay, I had to admit - but it takes time to test, so what the heck! We can't really say we were expecting them that quickly earlier this month, but hey - we are amongst the first in the world to receive these units, although we definitely aren't the first one to review them. Our review units came well packed as usual in a large DHL box from SteelSeries' headquarters in Denmark. How well will each product fit these group of people? We'll take a look at the SteelSound 3H headset priced at $49 USD today, and we'll thoroughly review the 4H as well shortly. Earlier this month, both products arrived at my doorstep for our evaluation. To address this market niche, SteelSeries announced the SteelSound 3H and 4H last month to accommodate users of this preference. As I self proclaim myself to be the guy in the second group, something of value and decent performance historically has always been my preference. At $99 USD per unit is by no means expensive in our opinion but this is very subjective as some want only top end products regardless of price, while other budget conscious individuals looks for something that has a lot of bang for your buck. While the company's SteelSound 5H V2 is still our favorite high end gamer's audio up until this point, there's one significant aspect that needs to be addressed: Price. Whether it's iconic gaming products such as headsets to mousepads, or other miscellaneous odd products, they've got it. SteelSeries has been making gaming peripherals and accessories for quite a while.
