Redragon H510 Zeus White Review Budget Gaming Headset With Good Mic
Friday, September 25, 2020







While most detachable microphone headsets seem to use a twist-lick mechanism to secure the microphone to the earcup, the recessed /thick square plug design of the H510 Zeus White works as well (if not better) at protecting the jack connector from coming off or breaking.
The vast majority of wired gaming headsets have a single-entry headphone port, although some have a headphone port on each earcup so, you can connect the headphone cable on either earcup. When inserting the Redragon H510 Zeus White into a computer, it will show in the Playback devices as a speaker 6-USB audio device
The Redragon H510 Zeus White has a good USB DAC and amplifier and massive 53mm speaker drivers, which provide powerful volume (110dB), clean treble, clear midrange and thumping bass.


You can EQ the default sound signature by downloading the Redragon H510 software. The software only supports Windows computers (XP, Vista, Win 7, Win 8 and Win 10).
Despite the 64ohm impedance rating of the drivers, the Redragon H510 Zeus White headset sounds just as good via a computer or smartphone headphone jack. As long as power isn't greater than 30mW, you can connect the Redragon H510 Zeus White to any audio interface, including a mixer or external amp.
The Redragon H510 Zeus White comes with a detachable omni-directional microphone, which is attached to a boom arm extension cable. The microphone connects via auxiliary jack connection; hence it is not the rotating type. The boom arm is bendable and will maintain its bent position securely.
Being omni-directional and without noise cancellation, the H510 Zeus White microphone picks up sound from all around you. That said, the microphone does come with a thick foam windscreen which helps drown background noise. The microphone itself, delivers crisp and clear sound and, it's good enough for recording audio.
The Redragon H510 Zeus White has a similar headphone construction to the Helios H710 headset with flat yokes and exposed earcup wiring. The earcups and headband are made of plastic, although the inner band yoke is made of anodized metal. The retainer hinges that hold the earcups in place are made of plastic. The outer front panels of the earcups are made of plastic with a chrome accent of Redragon's logo embossed in the centre.
The earcups do tilt up and down with a bit of swivel give, although there is no practical left to right swivel motion. The swivel feature on headphones does help minimize jawline pressure, as well as transportation since you're able to rotate the earcups flat. There is no RGB lighting on this headset but you can get this with the newer Zeus X H510 headset.
Despite the lack of earcup swivel, the Redragon H510 Zeus White headset is relatively comfortable, thanks to cushiony 2.5cm thick earpads covered with soft artificial leather. The inner hole of the earpads is also lined with artificial leather; whereas the inner hole of the Helios H710 earpads is lined with breathable mesh, which creates a bit more ventilation to minimize heat/sweat build-up during long usage.
The inner hole of the Redragon H510 Zeus White earpads measures 5.5cm high and 4cm wide with a 2cm depth to the driver, which is covered with thin padding. Most earcup drivers (including the Helios H710 headset) are protected by a thin layer of fabric, making the H510 Zeus White a good choice for those concerned about their ears rubbing against the speaker drivers. The outer diameter of the H510 Zeus White earpads is 10cm high and 8cm wide.
The underside of the headband has 2cm thick foam padding that goes all the way around to the sides; hence you get full head coverage. The headband is very wide too, measuring 3.5cm wide. Other accessories in the box are a cable management velcro strap, as well as a Redragon branded drawstring bag made of PUL, which is a polyester/polyurethane laminated knit fabric that is waterproof. You can buy the H510 Zeus 2 from amazon. Check out the review of the Pandora2 H350 headset.
