00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:08,920
welcome to my unboxing and first look at sennheiser's PC 350 special edition or

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:12,559
SE noise blocking gaming headset so calling it noise blocking is pretty much

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:18,000
sennheiser's way of saying that this is a closed design headphone with a

4
00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:24,720
microphone and by closed I mean that it keeps the noise it keeps the sound in so

5
00:00:22,119 --> 00:00:28,640
all your gaming sounds or music or movies or whatever else you happen to be

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:32,480
listening to on them stays inside your headphones and isn't going to leak to

7
00:00:30,279 --> 00:00:36,680
the people around you who maybe don't want to hear it so if you're someone who

8
00:00:34,879 --> 00:00:40,239
games late at night or you have a baby in the next room or whatever else

9
00:00:38,399 --> 00:00:44,960
something like this is a very very good option it also means that the sounds

10
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:50,280
stay out so if someone's calling you to come to dinner for example um you may

11
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:54,640
not hear them which is just sort of the situation so the PC 350 special edition

12
00:00:53,399 --> 00:00:59,000
features optimiz sound control for Competitive Gaming the sound is trimmed to provide positional accuracy making it

13
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:04,040
easier to hear where each sound comes from it features a closed design which isolates you from the outside noise so

14
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:08,759
you don't hear even the faintest so you hear even the faintest details of your

15
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:11,119
game gaming time is your time and every games you deserve it's no coincidence

16
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,799
that many games are recorded with Sennheiser audio equipment too they come

17
00:01:13,119 --> 00:01:19,320
with a 2-year warranty and they also come in one of the slimmest packages

18
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:24,320
that I think I've ever seen uh a gaming headset come with so uh outstanding

19
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:28,240
Sonic quality and Clarity with e technology collapsible design and

20
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:31,119
carrying case okay cool ease of use integrated volume control on the ear cup

21
00:01:29,799 --> 00:01:35,799
and and greatfor long gaming sessions with extra- large ear pads now I can

22
00:01:33,479 --> 00:01:41,360
actually vouch for the comfort of this particular headset um not that I I I've

23
00:01:38,439 --> 00:01:47,759
actually used the original PC 350 not the 350 SE and while I personally don't

24
00:01:45,119 --> 00:01:52,000
prefer closed headphones um and I personally didn't really find them that

25
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:57,560
comfortable compared to my HD 555s they were one of the only headsets that my

26
00:01:54,479 --> 00:01:59,960
wife would even use she just refused to

27
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:03,640
use anything else other than these ones and one other one that she found

28
00:02:01,719 --> 00:02:06,799
acceptable um that was able to fit around her ears and and that she was

29
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:13,040
able to find them comfortable so here's the carrying case is quite nice it has

30
00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:15,280
like a like a nice textured finish on it

31
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:18,879
uh feels quite durable it's got a little carrying handle right here and then the

32
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,640
zipper feels not like something that's just going to break in 2 seconds so I

33
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:27,440
mean these are things that you can't take for granted to be perfectly honest

34
00:02:24,959 --> 00:02:31,239
and inside we find the collapsible design so there's some foam to keep it

35
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,599
from you know keep anything bad from happening during shipping although I

36
00:02:32,519 --> 00:02:41,800
don't think the assumption is that you'll continue to use that forever they've added an orange accent to the SE

37
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:44,599
that was not on the original PC 350 and

38
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:49,040
uh obvious not obviously but also the uh carrying case that is included with the

39
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:52,840
SE was not included with the original 350 either so we can take this piece of

40
00:02:51,159 --> 00:02:56,840
foam out it looks like there's a little pouch here so you can keep a couple

41
00:02:54,720 --> 00:03:00,879
little extra accessories in there button those down same thing like the inside

42
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:05,280
feels very nice nice very high quality very premium they also lay out look at

43
00:03:03,239 --> 00:03:08,319
that they got a little thing here so that you don't screw it up and you put

44
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:12,640
it in the right way every time and then these pieces right here will keep the uh

45
00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:17,760
the ear cups in place during transport so I'll show you guys how the design

46
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,799
unfolds okay so it comes out that way

47
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:25,480
comes out that way and then locks into place over here somewhere all right it's

48
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:31,120
just kind of is that even yeah that's even there

49
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:34,760
you go um and this this right here is one of the reasons that I didn't find

50
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:38,840
the 350s that comfortable because uh they were pretty much tuned to my wife's

51
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:41,920
head you can see they're they're quite tight so you're going to want to break

52
00:03:40,239 --> 00:03:45,000
these in before they start to get really comfortable but then like I said they

53
00:03:43,799 --> 00:03:48,720
were one of the most comfortable headsets that she well would use so

54
00:03:47,439 --> 00:03:54,000
basically one of the most comfortable headsets she ever encountered like I've seen on quite a few Sennheiser

55
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:58,040
Headphones the ear cups are not super soft they're not super Supple but what

56
00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:03,480
this means is it's a bit of a trade-off when you have a really soft memory foam

57
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:05,439
ear cup what can happen is it cannot it

58
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:09,280
tends to not necessarily conform as much to your head over time so the Comfort

59
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:16,079
level doesn't really change whereas when you break in a bit of a harder uh more

60
00:04:12,879 --> 00:04:18,239
um more formable foam over time you what

61
00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:23,720
you'll discover is that it becomes perfectly tuned to fit your head and

62
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:28,600
it's uncomfortable for anyone else but super comfortable for the intended

63
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:30,600
wearer which is you the 350 uses a boom

64
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:34,320
mic so I can hear the switch in there it

65
00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:38,440
automatically mutes when you put it up into the um upright position and then

66
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:43,160
right here right there see that little spot

67
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:46,759
where it sticks that's what is going to reactivate the mic and turn it back on

68
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:52,320
this boom mic doesn't have length adjustment so it is intended only to be

69
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,680
adjusted this way uh and this way sorry

70
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:58,240
I almost end up putting that in my mouth there you want the microphone at the corner of your mouth so that it doesn't

71
00:04:56,479 --> 00:05:01,600
pick up too much breathing and that's one of the things that I do like about

72
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:06,560
tractable mics because this one as you can see is going to sit right under my

73
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:09,560
massive nose and uh might pick up a little bit of my breathing sound but

74
00:05:08,039 --> 00:05:14,320
with that said it is a noise cancelling microphone so you can see they have um

75
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:18,600
mics on both sides which is going to enable it to to not do that as much and

76
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,800
the flexibility is all provided by this little piece of the ARM right here so

77
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:26,280
you can go ahead and adjust that as needed the volume control that is built

78
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:31,440
in is on the right ear cup so this is new to the SE as well so you just rotate

79
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:36,880
the little Sen logo all the way up and all the way down and presumably there is

80
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,039
a microphone control somewhere in line here but I guess we'll have to oh no

81
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:43,319
right because uh right it used to have that so that's controlled by this now I

82
00:05:42,039 --> 00:05:48,160
wouldn't have minded seeing a bit of a thicker uh headband I complain about

83
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:52,400
this a lot whenever I see it I like a wider headband because it spreads out

84
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:58,160
the pressure a bit but what the 350 does have going for it is unlike the ear cups

85
00:05:54,919 --> 00:06:00,120
it is an extremely soft material up here

86
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:05,039
that has a long rebound time when you squeeze it in I hope you guys can see

87
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:08,120
that okay so for a thin headband this

88
00:06:05,039 --> 00:06:09,759
one is extremely comfortable I think

89
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:13,960
that pretty much wraps oh yeah no I want to show you guys sort of the sizing so

90
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:18,280
it goes here this is where it's sitting comfortably on my ears so if you had a

91
00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:21,720
super large head it would fit just fine and then if you're a kid wearing these I

92
00:06:20,319 --> 00:06:24,919
don't think you'll have much difficulty either because that's how it sits on my

93
00:06:23,319 --> 00:06:29,160
head and I wear a medium motorcycle helmet so that should give you guys some

94
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:32,840
idea of my head size so let's come in here and have a look at the quality of

95
00:06:30,639 --> 00:06:36,680
the braided cable on here so it comes with a little uh strap for tying that up

96
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:40,800
when you want to transport it or whatever else and yeah I was mistaken

97
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:44,800
before there is no inline control because all the controls are on the

98
00:06:42,599 --> 00:06:48,280
headphones themselves and I prefer this I think it's much better to have the

99
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:52,479
controls on the headphones as opposed to fumbling around with something and um

100
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,680
because I mean a lot of the time you just end up accidentally deactivating

101
00:06:54,160 --> 00:07:01,240
them or activating them anyway so there's your microphone and headphone three pole uh 3 and half millim jacks

102
00:06:59,879 --> 00:07:05,400
there's where they split apart another nice little Sennheiser logo and as we've

103
00:07:03,879 --> 00:07:12,879
come to expect from Sennheiser Headphones nice long cable so this gives

104
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:17,319
you all the options in the world in terms of routing so you can kind of go

105
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:20,319
around and behind your stuff and then bring it around to the back of your

106
00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:24,599
computer and you're going to have ample space to uh you know sit here which is

107
00:07:23,319 --> 00:07:29,319
where presumably you'd be if you were gaming we might as well do a sneak peek

108
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:32,960
at what will be my finished gaming rig you're going to want to come on the

109
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:36,560
other side of me here Boll so uh there you go I'll be doing a video about this

110
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:41,319
soon the only thing that's missing is I still have to add a couple more sticks

111
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:43,240
of RAM and then it will be pretty much

112
00:07:41,319 --> 00:07:48,039
done thank you for checking out this unboxing and first look at the PC 350 SE

113
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:52,000
from Sennheiser I think they took the approach of if it ain't broke don't fix

114
00:07:49,879 --> 00:07:55,360
it made a couple small tweaks and I think the the changes that they have

115
00:07:53,800 --> 00:08:01,440
made her very positive don't forget to subscribe Fus Tech tips for more unboxings reviews and other computer
