Inside the box you also get a handy headphone splitter so you can use the 200s with a mobile phone device as a hands-free headset and headphones. This has huge advantages when playing first-person shooters like Counter Strike where listening to footsteps is important. Steelseries has done a very good job of spliting up the bass and treble to produce a warm, all-rounded sound. This means the headset produces analogue audio, which depending on preference can sound a lot nicer than a more modern digital sound.

Both are 3.5mm auxillary connections so pretty much all computers can accomodate. The headset plugs into your computer using a headphone jack and seperate microphone jack. Yes it’s made from a plastic material, but that improves the comfort when wearing for longer sessions. Steelseries has done a great job in designing the updated model. That’s probably because the parts are pretty much the same, as well as gamers wanting the V2s back. We were sent the red pair but you can see all of the colours on the Steelseries website. Looks wise the Siberia 200s are near on identical to the discontinued V2.

Apart from the standard black and white we have seen many times before, the 200s also come in ‘Forged Red’, ‘Gaia Green’, ‘Proton Yellow’, ‘Sakura Purple’ and ‘Alchemy Gold’. Steelseries has listened to our cries and has released the new Steelseries Siberia 200 gaming headset, an upgraded model designed to mimick the fantastic features of the V2.Ī major change that Steelseries has embraced is the custom colours the new Siberia 200 come in. They loved its heavy-duty build, the huge 50mm drivers over each ear. After the older Steelseries Sibera V2 was discontinued to make way for the newer V3, gamers have been demanding the V2 to return.
