Reviewer verdict

Across 14 YouTube reviews, the ASUS ROG Fusion II 500 earns an Index score of 3.8/5, ranking #30 among Gaming Headsets. Reviewers most often praise its comfort, sound quality, features, while the most common criticisms concern connectivity, software/drivers.

The ROG Fusion II 500 is repeatedly praised for its comfort and lightweight fit, with many reviewers (51 mentions) highlighting plush, breathable ear cushions, an extra set of fabric pads, and an adjustable headband that make it comfortable for long sessions. Reviewers also frequently commend the sound quality (45 mentions), noting strong bass, clear mids and highs, good positional awareness and an effective virtual 7.1 implementation driven by high-quality drivers and an onboard DAC/amp. Its feature set and usability earn positive mentions (41 mentions) for intuitive touch controls, OLED/multimedia controls, solid battery life and reliable connectivity options, while design and build (31 and 17 mentions) are described as premium-looking with robust hinges and braided cables. The microphone and AI noise‑cancelling setup also get repeated approval (22 mentions) for clear voice pickup and convenient retractable design.

Most criticisms center on connectivity limitations (35 mentions): many reviewers complain the headset is effectively USB-only, lacks a usable 3.5mm option or wireless audio, and has confusing or limited Bluetooth functionality. Software and driver support (16 mentions) is another common downside, with reviewers saying customization, EQ and advanced features are restricted or PC-only. Several users find aspects of the touch controls and feature implementation underwhelming or unreliable (10 mentions), and some feel the price/value is questionable given these limitations and some music-related sound shortcomings (10 mentions). A smaller number criticize cosmetic glossy plastics, mic consistency, and minor comfort or durability issues.

no headset is perfect ▶ ROG Strix Fusion 500 RGB EVERYWHERE! @ 2:59
they've put it there because they needed something in between the price range rather than there's actually a kind of a need for it ▶ Asus ROG Strix Fusion 500 Headset Review @ 15:32
expensive, 180 US dollars ▶ ROG STRIX FUSION 500, hear me out! @ 11:02
wouldn't necessarily say that it's at the kind of hundred and fifty to a hundred and seventy pound level of audio quality ▶ Asus ROG Strix Fusion 500 Headset Review @ 8:53
for 180 dollars, you could split that budget and get yourself a decent mid-range headset and also a rather good usb microphone and it's going to sound an awful lot better than this one is for the price ▶ A Headset For Audiophiles || Asus ROG Fusion II 500 Gaming H @ 6:20
poor microphone quality for the price ▶ A Great Wireless Headset ~ ROG Strix Fusion Wireless Review @ 4:50

touch is not great ▶ ROG Strix Fusion 500 RGB EVERYWHERE! @ 4:40
key features that could use some work ▶ ROG Strix Fusion 500 RGB EVERYWHERE! @ 4:39
reading the graphic for that switch is difficult so you may find yourself taking off the headset entirely just to ensure it's correct ▶ Asus ROG Fusion II 500 Review | Noise-canceling AI Mic @ 2:19
no battery ▶ Asus ROG Strix Fusion 500 Headset Review @ 2:30

why are they behind the cams ▶ ASUS ROG Fusion II 500 review - The BEST ASUS Gaming Headset @ 0:51
touch controls also a little unresponsive ▶ ASUS STRIX FUSION 500 GAMING HEADSET REVIEW (4K60) @ 2:16
each swipe only adjusts the volume by a little bit each time not the best solution because you're just running your finger up and down ▶ ASUS STRIX FUSION 500 GAMING HEADSET REVIEW (4K60) @ 2:23

Sound Quality (10)

mids and vocals in general are a bit underpowered ▶ ASUS ROG Strix Fusion 500 7.1 Gaming Headset Review @ 7:54
as you hit the highs you're gonna hear a little bit of tin ▶ ROG Strix Fusion 500 RGB EVERYWHERE! @ 2:57
vocals don't seem as powerful and there is a bit of a lack of clarity in detail throughout the mids and highs ▶ ASUS ROG Strix Fusion 500 7.1 Gaming Headset Review @ 7:58

top feels like it could be dialed down a little bit and maybe the the the mid bass could have been brought up a little bit ▶ Asus ROG Strix Fusion 500 Headset Review @ 10:04
sound quality isn't awful to me wrong and it's better than a lot of headphones but its price point a perhaps just expected in terms of sound quality a little bit more in the music department ▶ ASUS STRIX Fusion 500 RGB Review - A Little Underwhelmed?! @ 6:22
music quality just isn't that and the lack of a wireless or even 3.5 mm jack really are disappointing ▶ ASUS STRIX Fusion 500 RGB Review - A Little Underwhelmed?! @ 7:33
music however isn't quite so much of a strong point, in some songs it just seems to lap that booming bass that just fills that song off and some songs just lack any full of mid-to whatsoever and it becomes a little bit treble heavy ▶ ASUS STRIX Fusion 500 RGB Review - A Little Underwhelmed?! @ 6:04
this advantage of the DAC is also a disadvantage, if you want to affect it with a sound card or something like that. So you can't really get away from this sound, even if it's good. ▶ ASUS ROG Strix Fusion 500 - touch, RGB & DAC! @ 4:51
sound quality is just about good enough ▶ ASUS STRIX FUSION 500 GAMING HEADSET REVIEW (4K60) @ 4:54

Design/Aesthetics (8)

flashy design choice is purely aesthetic however and will likely only be visible when the headset is not being worn ▶ Asus ROG Fusion II 500 Review | Noise-canceling AI Mic @ 1:22
a little bit of a fingerprint magnet ▶ ROG Strix Fusion 500 RGB EVERYWHERE! @ 4:37

people did say I sounded a lot worse compared to my normal everyday gaming headset I use ▶ ASUS STRIX FUSION 500 GAMING HEADSET REVIEW (4K60) @ 4:45

could be considered a little bit heftier by comparison to some other headsets ▶ A Headset For Audiophiles || Asus ROG Fusion II 500 Gaming H @ 2:31
a little bit less padding than perhaps expected uh on the headband ▶ A Headset For Audiophiles || Asus ROG Fusion II 500 Gaming H @ 2:13
comes standard with leather ear pads (reviewer prefers fabric) ▶ A Great Wireless Headset ~ ROG Strix Fusion Wireless Review @ 1:51
initially tight fit for large heads (loosened up with use) ▶ A Great Wireless Headset ~ ROG Strix Fusion Wireless Review @ 5:28

Durability (2)

the glossy plastic will most certainly chip a fade and scratch easily ▶ ASUS STRIX FUSION 500 GAMING HEADSET REVIEW (4K60) @ 3:02
expect this headset to look worn out in a short amount of time if they're not handled with care ▶ ASUS STRIX FUSION 500 GAMING HEADSET REVIEW (4K60) @ 3:04

Build Quality (1)

plastic feeling um maybe make makes it feel a little bit less premium ▶ A Headset For Audiophiles || Asus ROG Fusion II 500 Gaming H @ 1:30
