Great headset once you figure out how to update the drivers
Even though I paid for a *new* product, I received the headset in used condition. The manual was folded against the creases, nothing was wrapped in plastic, and there were several accessories un-banded. Regardless, I was anxious to see if the headset would work so I plugged in the USB dongle and started setting it up in Windows 11 Pro.
I immediately ran into issues connecting to the EPOS Gaming Suite software, but I expected as much, based on the reviews. Plus, I own an older Sennheiser Game One headset with driver issues (Sennheiser and EPOS gaming headsets used to be the same brand).
The driver issues with this headset are pretty much the same as my older headset. You can get audio to come through fine with plug and play (legacy drivers) but if you want to connect to the EPOS Gaming Suite, youâll need their proper drivers. Itâs also worth noting that the EPOS Gaming Suite software worked when I connected the included USB-A to USB-C cable to the headset⦠but who wants to use a cord with a wireless headset?
So, I needed to get the USB dongle working or I was going to return the headset. I screwed around for a couple hours updating firmware, uninstalling/reinstalling drivers and software, until I was about ready to print the return labels. Then finally I made one simple change, and everything worked. I went to Device Manager -> Audio Inputs and Outputs -> Headset (EPOS H3PRO Dongle) -> Update Driver.
Boom. Everything worked.
I admit this hassle isnât ideal for the average consumer; however, Iâm glad I stuck with it and got it working. As far as the actual hardware is concerned, I’m totally satisfied. It sounds and feels better than my old headset. It has a snug fit that only slips when you tilt your head too far forward. The ear cups are firm, but cushioned, and do well to form a good seal. The volume limit could stand to be a little louder, but the clarity is very good. You aren’t going to get thumping bass or anything, but frequencies are well separated and clear. The software also has an equalizer to play with. There are 2 surround modes – 2.0 does well for louder stereo music, and 7.1 is good for most games/movies. The noise cancelling is kind of strange as it only seems to cancel lows – like the sound of my voice, but itâs not bad. The wireless aspect is amazing and battery life is an absolute non-issue. I plug it in whenever Iâm done using it (usually 14-hour sessions), and Iâve never had it reach less than 60% charge. You can also attach it to the USB-A to USB-C cable which is about 6 feet long if the battery dies. I haven’t used Bluetooth so I can’t comment on that.
Overall, the hardware is great, the software isn’t bad, and the driver support is lacking. If you use the USB dongle like me, just update the drivers in Windows and you should be good to go.

Too bad they don’t work
Before the negatives let’s talk about the pros.
-Great sound quality
-very comfortable
-long battery life
-decent mic
-Nice feeling construction
-amazing customer service
Now to the cons.
They simply don’t work. I had issues with my first set disconnecting when connected to my phone via Bluetooth and to my PC with the wireless USB dongle. I checked everything and had a warranty pair sent and was able to keep my first pair. Second pair had the same issue after about a week and I let the company know. I asked if I could send them back for a refund. Epos agreed and sent me a prepaid shipping label to return them. Life got in the way and I didn’t send it back for over a month as they were still in use for my work. The company then sent me a third pair and I gave them to a friend to try out. I will not be returning these and plan on using them as a wired headset where I have the least issues.
To outline the actual issues, cutting out wireless connections, mic would also cut out and sound tin-ie for a lack of better description. They have also just started to turn themselves off. A restart always fixes every issue I have had but is annoying none the less. My recommendation is to buy a wired headset if you want something wired or buy a different wireless headset if you want it to actually work wirelessly.

Lots of features… but it still sucks
Update Mar 2024:
I’ve come to hate these headphones so much. The Bluetooth on them is the worst I’ve ever had in a device. They disconnect or go to sleep constantly, sometimes it’s really difficult to get them to pair, but the worst part is the crackling, I can’t enjoy any music or hear someone who’s talking to me.
Also you cannot rely on flipping up the boom mic to be fully muted as sometimes the internal mic will take over. This has led to some embarrassing moments.
These are so infuriating, don’t buy them.
———————
Update after 8 months:
The bluetooth on this headset is straight trash. It is constantly stuttering and cutting out when watching videos. Luckily I primarily use the dongle for work. I’ve tried disconnecting and power cycling both devices and sometimes it just makes no difference.
The tightness has loosened up considerably, so now if I look down at the ground the headset will start to slip off.
I took these on an airplane for my last trip and the noise cancelling really helped a lot, and the battery lasted through the whole trip (US coast to coast).
Overall I don’t think I would buy it again, although it’s still working for my needs. Changed my rating from 4 to 3 stars due to the rage induced by faulty bluetooth.

I will first admit I am not a gamer but often have 6+ hours of meetings per day so I need something comfy. I’ve been using a Corsair wireless gaming headset with a Windows laptop for the past 3+ years so that is my main basis of comparison. That poor headset is finally starting to fall apart from such heavy usage, so I was in search of a feature-rich replacement that can last at least an equal amount of time.
What I liked about that headset was that it had a flip-to-mute mic and large, comfy earpads that didn’t pinch my ears. It was way too big for my tiny head though, so my search focused on headsets that will fit smaller heads. This one absolutely fits the bill. It’s even a bit snug on me on the smallest setting! It is more snug to the head so if I tilt my head or look down it will not come off. It doesn’t pinch my glasses too much, but since these earpads are a little bit smaller than the Corsair, they are not particularly dangly-earring-friendly (ouch). I haven’t worn them 6 hours straight yet, but off and on throughout the day. No headache yet!
The features that this EPOS headset has, that the Corsair headset doesn’t have:
– you can connect to your computer through the dongle or cord, and connect to your phone through bluetooth. This allows me to listen to music or videos while I work, but not use company VPN bandwidth doing so. Seems easy to manage switching back and forth.
– the flip-to-mute boom mic is also completely removable, which is cool if I want to walk around my neighborhood with a headset on
– it even has a second internal mic, which I haven’t tested yet.
– battery life is super excellent. Could probably get through a few days of work without charging it. With the Corsair one I would always charge it overnight.
– passive noise cancellation is pretty good, since these fit snugger than the Corsair ones. It’s pretty peaceful.
Negatives:
– the earpads are not as breathable. It might be worth getting an extra set so I can rotate them out and clean them. Kinda sweaty on hot days.
– one other minor thing I miss is that the Corsair boom mic had a red light on it to let you know you are muted. This one cannot be hardware muted in the down position, you need to rely on hearing the click when you flip it up. Not a big deal as the flip-to-mute is what I wanted most.
My team says the sound is good on their end (through Zoom, Microsoft Teams). However, initially I had an issue with hearing my own voice through the headphone earpiece, which I DID NOT LIKE. I discovered this is known as side tone, which you can reduce or turn off using the software that goes with the headset (yay!). I don’t think these headphones will excite audiophiles, but the sound is clear and decent enough and the software has a lot of equalizers and noise cancelling settings you can play with.

El usb para el play 5 viene con extensión y no se puede separar, tengan en cuenta eso.
Ana Ribeiro –
I have a HyperX wireless with a USB dongle. When I connect it to ANY device, it just works. Plain and simple. The EPOS doesn’t “just work” even with the USÃB dongle. Half the times it doesn’t show up in the PC, makes for a frustrating user experience.

I had sennheiser headphones a long time ago for music. And thay where the best ..Unthill now.I had headphonse all premium brands before like Turtle beatch and my last ones Razer nari.. These epos are light and offer perfeckt 3d sound and music great base.. Thay made this man happy.I have nothing negative to say so far…

Jag har använt EPOS H3Pro Hybrid ett tag nu och måste säga att det är ett av de bästa headseten jag har ägt. Ljudkvaliteten, komforten och funktionerna är i toppklass!
Ljudkvalitet:
Ljudet är otroligt skarpt och detaljerat. Oavsett om jag spelar spel, lyssnar på musik eller ser på film, är ljudet klart och välbalanserat. Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) är en fantastisk funktion som effektivt blockerar omgivande ljud, vilket gör att jag kan fokusera helt på vad jag gör utan att bli distraherad.
Komfort:
H3Pro Hybrid är väldigt bekvämt, även vid långa spelsessioner. De mjuka öronkuddarna och den lätta designen gör att jag kan ha dem på i timmar utan att känna något obehag.
Anslutningsmöjligheter:
En av de bästa sakerna med detta headset är dess mångsidighet när det gäller anslutning. Du kan använda det trådlöst med Bluetooth, via 2,4 GHz dongel eller koppla in det med kabel. Det fungerar sömlöst med min PC, PlayStation och även min mobiltelefon. Det är verkligen ett allt-i-ett headset!
Batteritid:
Batteritiden är imponerande. Jag får upp till 3 dagars användning med Bluetooth och utan ANC, och även med brusreducering på håller det väldigt länge. Perfekt för långvariga spel- eller arbetsdagar utan att behöva oroa mig för att ladda hela tiden.
Mikrofon:
Den avtagbara mikrofonen är också ett plus. Den ger kristallklar kommunikation under spel, och när jag inte behöver den kan jag enkelt ta bort den. Mikrofonen stänger även av sig automatiskt när man fäller upp den, vilket är smidigt.
Sammanfattning:
Om du letar efter ett headset som kombinerar fantastiskt ljud, komfort och mångsidighet, är EPOS H3Pro Hybrid det perfekta valet. Det är lite dyrare än andra alternativ, men den ljudkvalitet och flexibilitet du får gör det definitivt värt priset. Jag kan varmt rekommendera det till både spelare och ljudentusiaster!

Después de varios meses ya puedo dar una opinión de lo que ofrecen estos auriculares.
Para empezar epos es una sub-marca de Sennheiser lo que ya de por sà garantiza calidad en el sonido, como audiofilo son muchos los auriculares que tengo en mi colección, incluso para gaming también tuve unos Sennheiser gsp350 y unos gsp300, por lo que sabÃa que el diseño de los auriculares serÃa de igual calidad en cuanto a confort se refiere.
Las almohadillas son muy cómodas y rodean perfectamente las orejas, en este caso tienen una mezcla de acabado en piel y alcántara que ofrecen mucha comodidad que unido al diseño del auricular hacen un producto realmente cómodo para largas sesiones.
El sonido es inmejorable, estoy harto de probar auriculares “gaming” que no aportan los matices que se le presuponen a auriculares de mucho dinero y que solo hacen mella en los graves y poco más, en este caso estamos hablando de un sonido claro, plano y contundente, el espectro del sonido es enorme y raya al mismo nivel en cualquier rango de volumen, se nota que lleva los driver (altavoces )de los momentum bt de sennheiser pero con un reajuste mediante software que hace que brillen muchÃsimo en videojuegos y que hacen de la experiencia toda una gozada. Contundente y potente en bajos y subgraves, claridad en medios y limpieza en agudos, una verdadera gozada para los oÃdos.
Bluetooth:
otro de los grandes aciertos de este modelo es la tecnologÃa Bluetooth que incorpora, al ser Bluetooth y no Wireless, hacen que la baterÃa duren mucho más que auriculares con Wireless, además el picnho que incluye hace que contemos con una respuesta extremadamente baja por lo que no notarás ningún tipo de retraso entre el click de tu raton/mando y el sonido que debes escuchar. Por otra parte podemos emparejar varios dispositivos a la vez, esto hace que podamos enlazar nuestro pc y nuestro móvil a la vez y mientras estamos conectados podamos estar trabajando o jugando en el pc y a la vez contestar llamadas, esto de verdad es todo un acierto y da una versatilidad a los auriculares que me cuesta creer que otros lo incluyan.
Microfono:
El micrófono es de muy buena calidad, con varios puntos de recogida de audio/eliminación de ruido, por un lado el brazo del micrófono es desmontable, funciona con imanes y se queda fijado perfectamente a la clavija, el sonido que recoge este mic es de excelente calidad y de no estar este micrófono conectado podemos hacer uso de los micrófonos repartidos por la estructura de los diversos que da muy buenos resultados, se pueden utilizar para contestar llamadas por la calle, o ayudan a mejorar el audio del micrófono de brazo principal cuando esté está acoplado.
Además contamos con cancelación de ruido activa, algo que siempre es de agradecer y que no es muy agresivo cuando lo utilizas, además ya de por si el auricular es cerrado y aÃsla mucho del exterior, pero con este sistema estaremos completamente aislados de fuero y sobre todo, los de fuera no nos ecucharan a nosotros, cabe destacar que podemos ajustar mediante el software de estos epos, que cuando hablemos se pueda recoger el audio externo y orinos, esto hace que por el hecho de no escuchar nada externo ni siquiera nuestra voz por la excelente cancelación de ruido, evita que estemos gritando de más por no oÃr nuestra voz natural.
La calidad de los materiales es de bastante calidad, la diadema es de aluminio y las partes en plástico son de plástico robusto y de calidad, la diadema está recubierta en piel y el cosido de la misma es de auricular de gama alta.
En definitiva, el mejor auricular gaming inalambrico del mercado en la actualidad. Si queréis encontrar algo mejor, tendrÃas que ir a por sus hermanos mayores los h6pro, pero estos son con cable y solo alguien con mucha afición al sonido apreciarÃa la mejora de unos contra otros.
