For anyone that isn’t heavily involved in competitive online PC gaming, ‘SteelSeries’ might be a company that you’re not all that familiar with. If you’re familiar with Razer however, the SteelSeries story is fairly similar.

Where Razer started to make a name for themselves with their high sensitivity gaming mice, SteelSeries built their reputation off of their highly durable gaming mouse pads. Like Razer, now that the SteelSeries brand is something that can be leveraged within the gaming community, they’re branching out and offering more gaming related products.

Today we’ll be taking a look at one of those products, the SteelSeries 3H Gaming Headset. The 3H is actually only one of a number of different gaming headsets offered by SteelSeries, and aside from their in-ear model, it’s their most compact and inexpensive offering to-date. Let’s take a closer look and see if the 3H can compete in the crowded budget segment and offer good value for the money.

First Impressions: SteelSeries markets all of their headsets as ‘professional gaming headsets’ and the 3H is no different in that regard, it’s simply a smaller, and slightly more economical version of its 4H and 5H big brothers. The 3H doesn’t come with any accessories, and is designed fairly simply.
