For their first foray into audio devices, the HS-260 is an noteworthy design. It is also certainly an indication that Func will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming years.

The HS-260 is a very understated and classy looking gamer's headset, with some nice features, decent sound quality and is incredibly comfortable, giving you two ear cup options should you prefer leather or velour over the other.

It has detachable cabling that makes it a great travel companion, even if it doesn't fold away into a little bundled bag and the mic is of very high quality … though it isn't particularly great at filtering out the sound from the earphones themselves.

You will also not find yourself listening to anything anyone else is saying with these on, as they filter out background noise pretty well – even when the volume is down low.

On a more negative note, the build quality is not the greatest and dropping them from any height is likely to cause damage.

Overall, we would not have any trouble recommending the Func HS-260 headphones if comfort and looks are your main concerns. If audio quality is your thing, chances are you're spending more, but if not, then you may want to weigh in other products from leading makers such as Steelseries and Turtle Beach.
