My personal favorite around the $100 price range is sennheiser hd598s, I believe they are like $130(I am not to familiar with US prices) however I have heard great things about the audio technica ath-m30x I think they are like $70

They only problem I have with the g633 is that their plastic construction makes them squeak and they are quite heavy which I guess makes sense since they are a headset not just headphones

and one more thing, the slippery padding (Not all user experiencing this) on the earcups and the headband.

But I guess i don't have any other to recommend except the HD 598.

Also i am actually going to buy this headset (G633)

I bought a set of the g633s when they launched and liked them quite a bit but after switching over to my hd598s I would never go back. However I also dont use a mic very much so there was no downside to me switching. Now I am using a set of sennheiser hd 6xx(massdrop specific hd650s) and they are amazing and are worth every penny for the $200 they cost.

Depends where are you buying it from and does it seem sketchy at all? Maybe give us a link. If you can get them for that cheap then yeah its a great deal.

I personally wouldnt buy them just because in the pictures of the headphones the padding on the left earcup looks a little pulled apart and the fact that they are just showing one angle makes me think that they are not in very good condition.

i have tried the M50X tho it's quite comfortable but more pricey than the Logitech G633. $60 difference between those...

Yeah I am not to sure, the only other options that I really recommend from personal experience is I have a friend who has a pair of akg k72 and I really like them, I think the suspended headband is really comfortable, not sure if they are available in your area or not but thats another option.

@Nicnac i think the AKG K240 are good because it is giving you good paddings

I've looked at those, too and they seem decent. But Idk.... everything I've looked at until now has one or another issue... I might just save up a little longer and get some Beyerdynamic headphones...
