Lightspeed has further refined its Zulu headset line with beefed-up design features and a more comfortable fit. The company unveiled the Zulu 3 on Tuesday and along with the technical refinements it added a seven-year warranty. In a news release, Lightspeed called it “the most comfortable, most durable headset Lightspeed has ever made.”

The Zulu 3 has tapered ear seals that fit better and a 50 percent bigger cup cavity than competitors to give ears more room and avoid pinching. Surrounding those ear cavities are ear seals that are 20 percent bigger than competitors and provide a better seal around glasses. They are also designed to minimize side pressure. Cables have a Kevlar core so they’re lighter and more durable, and extensive use of magnesium in the structure of the headset makes it light and durable.
