Conclusion

When SteelSound said that they had made a ‘simplified version’ of the 5H v2, what they actually mean is that they made a headset that performs the same (same audio quality) but with a lower price and hence a product that isn’t as durable or as professionally manufactured. That said, there are gains in the bass department.

Unlike the 5H v2 which can be dismantled or the 3H which can be folded up, the 4H can’t be as easily transported. I feel that the 4H is a 5H v2 in cheaper clothing, aiming to get budget gamers into the world of quality audio peripherals

You can read our 5H v2 review here, and our 3H review here.

I'd like to thank our sponsors SteelSound for providing us with the headset.
