Func may be new to the market with their range of peripherals, but if the HS-260 are just a taste of what is to come from this brand then we are in for a very good year indeed. I?ve been using the same brand of headsets for almost two years now and in that time I haven't found anything that could tempt me away from my Tritton FREQ7, but the HS-260 make music sound fantastic and are really comfortable, which is impressive given they cost less than half as much as what I currently use.

Build quality is pretty great, the headband can be bent and twisted a lot without any issues, and the headband extender feels pretty durable too, the only thing that really separates this headset and ones that cost twice as much is the fact that the construction here is mostly plastic. The plastics used are really nicely finished, blending soft textures and hardly any of the glossy plastics we often see on mid-budget headsets, more expensive models typically favour more metal exterior components, but I don't get any indication that the HS-260 will fail any time soon, they?re nicely put together, joins in the plastic are close and there are no obvious glue marks and screws on show to cheapen the overall style.

In terms of aesthetics they?re pretty stylish too, with just a small Func logo on the side of each ear cup it is likely that most people won't even realise what brand you?re wearing on your head, but without a doubt they?re a great looking set of headphones that are just as suitable sitting a your desk as they are plugged into your smartphone while sat on the bus.
