Decent headset for the price

This is a good option for a gaming headset without spending a ton. I got it on sale and I'm happy with it. Decent sound and mic quality, and though I've used more comfortable headsets, I've also used significantly more uncomfortable ones. I'd recommend this for the $30-40 budget. The removable mic is also quite nice when I want to plug in some music and just grind.

Avoid, not worth a cent.

I'm an adult with no children or pets, and I take very good care of all my gear and equipment. I purchased this headset and used it lightly for 2 weeks before it broke and stopped working - I could not hear or speak through it. I'm extremely disappointed that an item, even if it only cost $15, was such trash. I'll never buy a best buy brand Insignia product ever again.

Does the headphone have in-game volume ?

It does have a volume dial. I mixed chat and game volume in the settings and can easily control the master volume with the dial.
