Overview of the Oklick HS-L750G Wireless Headset
Something seems to have gone wrong with the GMNG brand. Even in the attached social network news, the last update was in February. So now, the company "Oklick" is releasing gaming accessories under its own name, only with the label “Oklick Gaming” on the box.
The HS-L750G headset was released in such a box. Despite being positioned in the budget segment, it has a quite stylish design, acceptable sound quality, and interesting functionality. But let's go through everything in order.
Shape
Overall, the headset design is standard, but there are nuances. The headband is made of hard plastic, and the section over the head is covered with fabric. Quite unusual, and it seems that under the fabric, the headband is made in the shape of a frame to make it lighter.
The ear cups “slide” along the edges of the band in special grooves. Yes, there is no rotation option, but this makes the construction more durable. A microphone is attached to the left ear cup on a flexible stalk.
All controls are moved to the left cup. There are four buttons — power on/off, microphone on/off, volume up, and volume down. Each button is multifunctional — depending on how you press it, the headphones will respond differently.
Also on the left cup is a USB Type-C port for charging and operating in “Player” mode. Yes, this is how the voice from the headphones describes it when you switch modes by pressing the power button — “Player Mode.” In this mode, the headphones can connect to a USB dongle (receiver). And in “Bluetooth” mode, the headphones work directly with the computer's Bluetooth adapter.
The last detail on the left cup is an LED that glows blue when in use, blinks blue when the headphones are searching for a connection, and glows red during charging.
In terms of comfort, there are no complaints. The soft ear pads fit snugly to the head and well isolate external sounds. And since they are fabric, they do not make the ears feel hot.
In theory, you can also wear the headphones outside. They look quite stylish, although the fabric on the headband will be inconvenient to clean if it gets dirty.
In Use
The main thing, the sound reproduction quality in the HS-L750G, is at quite a decent level. Although not at the level of the most expensive models I have already reviewed. The headset is clearly not aimed at audiophiles, but it is just right for gamers. However, the microphone could be made a bit louder.
Perhaps the designers went a bit overboard with the controls. At least, I had to refer to a cheat sheet for a long time about what and how to switch. The power button pressed for 3 seconds turns the headset on (and off), a short press pauses playback and restarts it, double pressing switches between “player mode” and “Bluetooth mode,” holding for 2 seconds rejects an incoming call (if the headset is connected to a smartphone via Bluetooth).
The button next to the power button toggles the microphone on and off with a short press, mutes if held for 10 seconds, and breaks the Bluetooth connection if held for 5 seconds. The volume control buttons adjust the volume, but if you double click them quickly, they switch to the next or previous track while playing.
How’s that, not bad? It’s just a pity that the double click on the volume buttons doesn’t always register properly. Even a single press sometimes doesn't work, and you need to press the button several times for the volume to actually change.
Another thing to keep in mind is that if the headphones are in Bluetooth mode, when you connect the charging cable, they simply turn off. But in player mode, they automatically connect to the sound channel — thus you can listen to music/game/movie while charging them. It’s unfortunate that they don’t switch automatically, and if you plan to charge them, you need to switch to the correct mode in advance.
By the way, a full charge takes a little over an hour. And a full charge lasts for more than a day. The only remark is that the battery level displayed when you connect the headset via Bluetooth is shown with an accuracy of 10% (10, 20, 30, etc.).

Conclusion
The HS-L750G headset costs around 3,000 rubles (more or less, depending on the store). And for its price, this is quite a decent model. Without any frills like active noise cancellation but with sufficiently good sound quality and multifunctional controls.
There are, however, minor shortcomings — the double press isn’t always registered, and there’s no automatic switch from Bluetooth mode to player mode when connecting a cable. But for the most part, you won’t encounter them.
So, the HS-L750G is a good budget solution for both gamers and smartphone owners if they don’t mind wearing closed headphones outside.
