These not only look neat but they are also adjustable and very comfortable.
At first it took a while to adjust but eventually I set it to my preference and they have worked marvelously!
Passive noise canceling capabilities make for a successful purchase worth the money for sure.
The headphones are easily adjusted and very comfortable so ideal for long game play.
It makes loud scratching noises when I plug it in and doesn’t work sometimes.

What customers say about "Headset"

ASTRO A10 Wired Gaming Headset

The headset feels comfortable and the audio is great.
These are insane, they have the best sound quality ever, also nice build quality.
The surround sound is great and the base is awesome for a headset of this price range.
This head set is affordable, durable, surround sound over all amazing for a gaming experience.
The only issue is at times it feels like the frequency range does not go above 10,000hz

Turtle Beach Recon 200 Amplified Gaming Headset (for PS4 and Xbox One)

They fit over the ears rather than on them, which is, in my opinion, a lot more comfortable.
The sound quality is amazing, you get a nice deep bass and they work perfectly with Dolby Atmos and Windows Sonic.
Sound quality is great for everything (I can hear almost everything on all of the maps in siege, even Cavi).
These are great headset for gaming and a great price too.
This headset has worked wonderfully, sound is very crisp and can hear a lot more than standard headsets. Definitely recommend

What customers say about "Microphone"

ASTRO A10 Wired Gaming Headset

They have great bass, the mic (which is what I bought it for) works perfect and sounds clear.
This is the best headset. I have owned because of it’s mic quality.
I can hear everything and your voice is completely clear to other players it’s perfect,
The microphone is clear and not distorted. Also headset got perfect sound. Highly recommend.
Best headphones ever, but the mic broke in under year.

Turtle Beach Recon 200 Amplified Gaming Headset (for PS4 and Xbox One)

Great sound, feel, and I love the shorter good quality mic.
Would definitely recommend this headset for anyone who's looking for a great mic with not such a steep price tag.
When the mic is on, it gets kind of echo-y. I can hear myself talk as well as any little noise around me.
I find that the mic will every so often (even when muted), give a little bit of feedback sound.
The mic is really quiet and this personally was a big problem for me as i am mostly a social gamer.

What customers say about "Features"

ASTRO A10 Wired Gaming Headset

Forgetting they're on my lap so they tend to fall quite a bit but their flexible build makes it nearly impossible for them to break!
The headset is very durable, you can bend it in half and it won’t break. The cord it comes with hasn't broken either.
I’ve slammed them so many times and they still work perfect!!!
If your a kid like me or have a small head, it’s gonna look weird, they are round all over the top.
The only issue I have with them is that they are not the best for people with glasses.

Turtle Beach Recon 200 Amplified Gaming Headset (for PS4 and Xbox One)

The charge lasts all day if you just charge it for at least a couple hours a day.
These are good and I like the swinging arm mute function.
Brilliant quality and the headband is extremely durable. Flip up mic is a really nice and convenient feature.
I wear glasses and only complain I have with that is I have to put my glasses on before I put them.
It's gets a little uncomfortable on the top of the headset it's doesn't really have cushion, so my head starts to hurt.
