Features of the Audio-Technica ATH-GDL3:
Open-back gaming headset lets you localize sounds (an approaching opponent, for example) within an expansive sound field
Large-diameter 45 mm drivers deliver high-resolution audio with exquisite detail
Incredibly lightweight headset (less than 220 grams) offers long hours of comfortable gaming
State-of-the-art, flexible (and detachable) boom microphone, with highly directional pickup, provides crystal-clear in-game voice communication
Volume control dial and mute switch are built into the left earcup for convenient control of the microphone
Two detachable cables: 3.0 m (9.8') cable with 3.5 mm (1/8") mic and headphone plugs for computers; 1.2 m (3.9') cable with a 3.5 mm (1/8") TRRS plug for PS5, Xbox Series X, and other gaming consoles
Earpads and headpad detach for easy replacement

Highlights for me:
Lightweight design
LOUD
Open back design means you can hear yourself even without mic monitoring
Doesn't get too hot
Better quality than it looks
Comfortable fit for hours and hours
Mic is great for the money
