Sharkoon Skiller SGH50 headset Review — Hammer-hard punch meets good sound and a decent microphone — Combat announcement for under 60 Euros
Disclaimer: The following article is machine translated from the original German, and has not been edited or checked for errors. Thank you for understanding!
The Sharkoon Skiller SGH50 for currently 57 Euros was not only a surprise for me, so that I took the opportunity to test it myself this time. Because what you hear and how you judge is all well and good, but also always somewhat subjective. However, if you want to write about a game changer in the under 60 euro class, you should also be able to prove something like that with measurements. Why am I going so far out on a limb here? It’s the first headset that even nibbled my Tesla headphones and a Planar when it comes to level stability and sound pressure. Can’t do it? Yes, it can!
Of course, where the light shines so brightly, there is always more or less shadow. However, this is surprisingly restrained in the SGH50, even though the price pressure is of course quite noticeable in many details. However, most of it is quite well concealed and few gamers will notice it right away. If at all. Everything done right? A resounding yes, even though there is one small thing that bothers me subjectively, but it is also an intended feature. But more about that later, because I not only unpacked the headset and evaluated its sound, but also measured it in detail and then completely disassembled it. I was also very interested in the inner values. Logical.
I actually wanted to test the headset much sooner, but then preferred to get two other opinions after a first hands-on. Each with its own retail product, so that I can be sure that I’m not holding a golden sample in my hand. But enough of the euphoric introduction, because what really counts in the end with the customer are the soft and the hard facts. And that’s exactly what I’m starting to do now.
Scope of delivery
The 55-ohm headset is packaged in recyclable cardboard without a microphone, which is available as a detachable component with a pop protector.
And if you’re wondering what the small, black rubber part to the left of the pop shield is: it’s a small cover for the lower microphone port, in case you want to use the part as pure headphones and so that the jack doesn’t get dirty then.
And what else? There is the original 3.5 mm TRSS jack cable for the headphone jack including cable remote (volume, mute) with 110 cm length, a 150 cm extension and a Y-splitter from TRSS to single 3.5 mm jacks for audio and mic. Besides the quick instructions, there is some air filled in Asia and that’s it. But it’s quite enough, because that’s all you need. Let’s first take a look at the 360° flight around the SGH50 without a microphone as a pure headphone variant:
Appearance, feel and wearing comfort
For just under 60 Euros, you get quite solid fare in terms of material selection and design. It doesn’t look like a plastic bomber at first glance, nor do metal temples and stitched PU leather give off the cheap whiff of the usual cost-down contortions.
Yes, some things just don’t work for this price if you install proper chassis. But then rather no RGB, but proper drivers. They got their priorities completely right.
Overall, the implementation leaves a decent impression, also because the headset completely lacks the usual gaming attitudes. Without the microphone, the part would also pass as a decent stereo headphone and I have already tested many pure headphones that sounded worse and yet cost more. Of course, the part is no lightweight anymore with its 342 grams, but it is not yet a sumo wrestler on an acoustic errand either. So for a high-performance over-ear headset with a fairly massive boom construction, this is acceptable.
The joint mechanism is simple, due to the price, but still functional. Only one axis, but a very flexible headband and the somewhat yielding metal bracket are of course already enough in total, so that you can adjust the shells properly to the ear. For me as a wearer with a hat size of 64, this is still perfectly fine, where other headsets are already very tight.
Only users with a hat size of 56 and smaller should refrain from a dignified headbang if possible, otherwise the part will rise into orbit.
Even I don’t feel any pressure, especially since the headband, which can be pulled out far enough, sits well in the headband and you don’t miss a clearly defined click mechanism of any kind. This one is one-size, making it suitable for North America and Europe.
The cow, from whose petroleum fur the soft imitation leather of the temple pad and that of the two removable ear pads was cut, unfortunately only got to eat pure polyurethane in its short laboratory life. That closes reasonably soft, but not too soft and tight, so that after prolonged wear you will miss the very special microclimate of the usual lard stoves (not really). More about this in the teardown. But as nice as the soft foam may be for pressure point rehab, it is somewhat detrimental to the sound when the listener is pressed too close to the ear. I can only advise everyone to attentively optimize the seat with the sound source running, so that the bass does not become a banger.
There is not much more to say about the headset, at least not on the outside, except that you can be quite happy with this part and you hardly feel the price pressure. I’ll come to the plug-in microphone in more detail later. The headset is connected with the aforementioned TRSS cable and remote control, whose volume control is not particularly synchronous in the initial range and the fiddly mute button, which does not really make a durable impression and is also much too stiff. If there has been one real criticism so far, it is this piece. Simply do not use and then it will also work with the long-term durability. Knobs are overrated anyway.
As a conclusion of this chapter, I also have the technical data for you, which I won’t recite individually now, but simply take over as an overview. Some of this I will measure and check later:
And since we’re so busy documenting, I also have the manual for you, before I crack the headphones on the next page and the teardown is allowed to expose the inner values.

Winter came, snow fell, Black Shark goes on vacation, hang out with the girls, go skiing and immediately finds himself in the very center of the terrorist camp… Eternal ice awaits him, hundreds of units selected enemy infantry and equipment, one hundred thousand guns and bombs, the invulnerable Su-27 supersonic fighter and the Red October nuclear submarine, Christmas mood and holiday discounts in the weapons store, as well as a special invited guest — Santa Claus on reindeer! Hou Hou Hou!
Kill them all — should be the main rule for you.
Fly the Black Shark as you please, defying any laws of gravity. Pick up everything that is badly lying, and do not forget to go shopping — buy another deadly toy. Remember that nuclear missiles are your main goal, but do not deprive your attention of the corresponding share of lead and other opponents: on the ground, in the sky and underground. Go through the flurry of fire and try to stay alive.
