Customer Ratings & Reviews

Pretty good device! Great sound quality, great mic. A bit loose on my head, but still great product.

I’m a gamer and a father and time is something I do not have much of anymore. So, the whole portable gaming concept is of great interest to me. I wanted to have a compatible headset with the brand of devices I use. I decided on getting the ROG PELTA and I use it with my two ROG gaming devices the Ally & Zephyr G14. :::General Thoughts::: The Pelta is lightweight, easy to use, has great battery life and it easy to use. I use it primarily for my ROG Ally and the sound is great and you can customize the audio to your liking depending upon the device you are using. For the more demanding games I prefer to use my laptop and I have an ROG Zephyr 14. I played The Last of US part two, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth & Metal Gear Delta. Upon receiving the Pelta I was very pleased. The box is small, and you’ll find a braided USB type B with a type C adapter, detachable MIC, a 2.4GHZ usb dongle and the headset itself. I love how lightweight the headset is and it doesn’t feel like a clamp on your head. It has a fabric like band which makes it feel great. The buttons are located on the left earcup, there is a mute button, power button which is a switch Bluetooth or 2.4GHZ, volume wheel, and a mic attachment. Using the Pelta is easy you switch the headset to Bluetooth, hold the pairing button and you are done. There are audible cues when you power the headset on and when it is entering pairing mode. The RGB is reasonable and not gaudy like some other headsets. I installed the Pelta software for “Armory Crate”. I would recommend that you make sure all the software is up to date in armory crate. And then install the Pelta software, it will allow you to make changes to the audio and microphone settings through Armory Crate. :::Pros & Cons::: Pros: - Lightweight - Bluetooth & 2.4 GHZ - Detachable Mic - Fabric headband - Comfortable - Great battery life Cons: - None :::Closing Thoughts::: I like ASUS products and I like gaming they just go well together, If you are in agreement or looking for a comfortable headset then check out the ROG PELTA.

I own several ASUS products and have always been a fan of their gaming lineup. I got the ASUS ROG Pelta wireless gaming headset to use with my ROG Ally, After I unboxed it, my first impression was mixed. The design is minimalist, and the headset is extremely lightweight. I feel that ASUS made this headset to provide a balance between comfort, versatility, and sound performance. It features 50 mm drivers and tri-mode connectivity (2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth, and USB-C wired). The Bluetooth connection is straightforward and sounds good on my iPhone 17 Pro Max. It is very comfortable on head and sometimes I forget I’m wearing it. The headband is two bands, the top one is padded and right below that one, there is elastic band that can be adjusted to two different sizes, ensuring a better fit. Battery life-wise seems to be impressive. The headset has a wide compatibility that makes it ideal for PC, consoles like PlayStation and Nintendo Switch, handhelds, and even smartphones. I like the soft, breathable fabric earcups, which make long gaming sessions much less annoying. The mic is detachable and from my testing it crystal clear, and my voice quality was praised during gaming with friends. There is also a dedicated mic mute button for quick access when activated, an red led light up to indicate the mute status. The RGB lighting on the earcups is subtle but it is nice at night that can be customized using ASUS Armoury Crate software. However, there are a few drawbacks that I wish this headset has or offers it. Despite being lightweight, the headset doesn’t feel very premium and most of it is made from plastic, which makes it feel plasticky and less premium. It lacks a 3.5 mm audio jack, and the onboard function buttons take some time to get used to. However, This ROG Pelta is a good choice if you are looking for a headset that offers good sound quality, comfortable, lightweight, and flexibility of connection and good mic for its price point.

This is a first for me. I have never found a headphone that was perfect. I can always find something that, in my opinion could be improved. The ASUS - ROG Delta Wireless Gaming Headset for PC/Mac, PS5, and Mobile devices Headset is amazing. Asus thought of everything when it comes to comfort, sound, reaction time and portability. Taking the casual gamer to a whole new level. . I used the wireless set up as I have great internet. You can also set up other ways to counteract the delay if you do not have great internet. Everything I needed was in the box. Contents of box includes the following: 1. ROG Pelta wireless gaming headset 2. Microphone 3. Wireless 2.4 GHz USB-2 dongle 4. USB-C to USB-A dongle Adapter 5. Quick Start Guide The headset itself is so easy to charge and set up. Scan the QR code on the box to download the ASUS site to register and update the headset. Important Tip: I was so excited when I opened my box that I was not as thorough as I should have been. The dongle is sorta hidden in the cardboard. As it is very small, If you are looking for it, it is easy to miss. Also the USB- C to USB-A is attached to the end of the cord. I love the microphone! It is so easy to adapt the position in so many ways. The microphone itself is movable in a full circle on the headset. Then the microphone is nicely bendable and stays where I bend it. It is perfect. The sound is amazing. I can hear the footsteps of the other players in the game. They sound so real that I found myself looking around for them. The gunshots sound like real gunshots and echo as they should. The sound quality is as near to reality as I have ever heard on a gaming headset. The headset itself has a wide elastic band the easily adjusts to my head. I had no idea my head was so small. I had to adapt the elastic to fit me. Which was easy to do with the tabs that attach the band to the headset. I have enclosed photos to show you. It is so lightweight that after getting into the game I cannot tell the headset is on. There is no pressure on my head or ears. The soft thick foam on the ear pads are not restrictive at all. They are so thick that all I felt was soft. This headset works equally on my computer and Playstation. No difference in the sound or latency an all in my opinion. As I mentioned I used my headset wireless using the bluetooth b ut you can also use the USB-C for wired connection. Just remember that you more than likely will be getting into the game and not paying attention to the loudness of the headset. I found myself doing this. I had to reming myself that I needed to turn it down to protect my ears. The buttons on the headset itself are designed in "rocker" so it is intuitive to control the volume, media playback , microphone mute and even the power. I suggest you memorize where they are so you don't reach up to lower volume and them the headset off. In my defense I only did that once. . The battery life is exceptional and does charge rapidly. I am curious how that will work as I use it a lot. I just quickly charged it so I could get to gaming. I am charged it about 20 minutes and it worked flawlessly for about 2 1/2 hours but it may have worked longer if I had not quit playing.

Visually, this is a very good-looking headset. The matte finish clashes nicely with the metal-matte accents. There’s subtle branding on the headband and since they’re gaming headphones, there’s RGB on the cups without being too much. Although they are very light and a bit loose, they seem well-built. They are very comfortable. They have an adjustable suspension band that sists lightly on the head. I hope this band does not become loose over time. The breathable pads allow plenty of ventilation and prevent overheating. The clamping force is minimal, but I did experience some pressure right underneath my ear after several hours (and that might just be me). They also sit nicely on the neck, if that matters. The controls are easy to figure out and are positioned well. I love the volume rocker wheel. My only nitpicks are that I keep missing the mic mute button and I wish it was on the other side, and the BT/2.4 can be a bit confusing since it is also the on/off slider. These cans connect to almost everything. I tried them on the PC, PS5, Switch 2, tablet, and even phone. I used the 2.4Ghz dongle with no issues and basically no lag. The dongle is USB-C but comes with an adapter. Tried the Bluetooth with my tablet and phone, again, there were no noticeable sync issues. The connection range was quite impressive. And just in case you like the best connection, you can use the headset in wired mode via the included USB-C cord. I noticed that the volume rocker worked erratically with the Switch 2 and the mic mute and function button raised the volume. Sadly, there is no X-Box compatibility. Out of the box this headset’s sound is airy and on the bright side. There is a good punch in the bass, but the sub-bass is a little lacking. Bass-heavy sounds like explosions and heavy engines don’t have that deep subwoofer feel. However, midrange sounds like shots, dialogue, and metallic audio come through with impact. The treble adds even more clarity to distant and subtle sounds such as shouts, traffic, and steps. The soundstage is wide, and the imaging allows one to pinpoint directional and distance queues. Overall, the headset presents a decent and realistic sound experience. Listening to music, on the other hand, was just too bright for my taste especially when listening to my phone since there is no companion app to change the EQ. The Crate software allows you to change the sound signature with a full EQ, although I could not bring the bass extension I was looking for. Also, the headset does not remember the EQ settings once disconnected. In the software, you can change the specialty button, RGB colors, and keep the firmware updated. The mic works exceptionally well. I used it in multiplayer games and all the mic checks were successful. I also made work-related calls and attended an online meeting, and I was heard clearly. I did not have to raise my voice and the mic hardly picked up keystrokes or other ambient noise. Despite not being perfect, I am quite pleased with the versatility and performance of this headset. Plus, it doesn’t break the bank. I certainly recommend it for those that have multiple devices, and want the one headset for all.

The ASUS Rog Pelta Wireless Gaming Headset works well for long hours of wear. Whether you are spending long hours working online or gaming, this headset is comfortable. The audio is crystal clear. The headset is lightweight and the earcups are well padded. What’s in the box: • Adjustable headset • Detachable boom mic • 2.4Ghz dongle (USB-C) • USB-C to USB-A adapter • USB-C to USB-A charge cable • Instruction booklet The ROG Pelta Wireless Headset is almost everything I look for in a headset. It works with Bluetooth or via 2.4Ghz WiFi. It has a removable boom mic, which is a real plus for me since my glasses interfere with mics that are in the earcups. The audio is crystal clear, gaming sound effects are very realistic. I wound up testing the headset during a marathon video work call and it was surprisingly comfortable. Then there are the cool trademark ASUS ROG LED lights. These are customizable using the downloadable Armory Crate software. The lights can be easily turned off by pressing and holding the mute button on the left earcup, or with the software. One nice feature is that the headset will still work when plugged into the USB port. My old headsets would not, and that was a real pain when the batteries ran low during a call or gaming session. While I’m not crazy about being tethered by a wired headset, it’s good to know I can plug in and continue the meeting. The headset has some adjustment for different head sizes by repositioning the elastic band. It looks like it will easily fit large heads. But when it is adjusted for smaller heads, there is a very large gap between the elastic band and the headset headband. It looks a bit weird on video calls to have the top of my headset floating a couple of inches above the top of my head. My old headset had minimal range on 2.4Ghz WiFi. Basically, if I left my office space/ got more than about ten feet away, I lost connectivity. The ROG Pelta had the same problem. I could get a little farther away, but not enough to go into the next room to get a cup of coffee. (Your mileage may vary here.) The ROG Pelta does seem to have reliable Bluetooth connectivity, though. I managed to go outdoors and still hear the lecture I was listening to when the headset was connected via Bluetooth. All in all, I like the ROG Pelta headset. It is comfortable, performs well and even though it looks weird when adjusted for my head size the earcups stay in place. Compare the performance to headsets costing many times more than these and you will find the ROG Pelta headset is a good value and worth a try.

When it comes gaming for long hours you need comfort, sound, battery life and connectivity and the Asus ROG Pelta meet all those requirements. The Pelta are a comfortable and light one size fits all headphone, the ear cushions have large cutouts for those of us with big ears. The elastic band is excellent for comfort (best I have used), I wore the headphones for hours on end without issue. The ear cups have just enough force to stay on my ears without causing any pain, the pressure is just enough to where the headphones don’t fall off but its not something you could go running with. As the ear force isn’t super firm I did notice that there was sound bleed so someone sitting next to me would hear what was playing through the headphones. The sound quality for the highs and mids is wonderful, I could hear all details while gaming and listening to music. Now the lows are slightly below average, you wont feel the rumbling base. I appreciate that Asus went with physical buttons over touch-based ones. The toggle button to turn the headset on/off or switch between Bluetooth or the 2.4 gig streaming via the dongle is perfect and should be used by all headphone makers. The buttons to mute the mic and pair Bluetooth do the job but I do wish Asus raised them a bit so I could feel them better or have some type of ribbing on them as the volume wheel does. The connectivity of the Pelta was great, there was no latency issue no matter how they were connected to any of my devices. The headphones were great during gaming and the boom mic worked as intended, my friends could hear me perfectly. Overall the Pelta are a good gaming headset that has excellent comfort and amazing battery life (so far used them for 24 hours and im sitting at 50%).

A Pelta is a lightweight, often circular shield. I believe its Greek in origin but I remember it was a lower level light class shield from Diablo games. This ROG Pelta headset is similar, not to be confused with the more expensive big brother, the ROG Delta (II), at roughly half the price, the Pelta is definitely a trimmed down and lighter weight option. The first thing I noticed about the Pelta is that it is very lightweight, so long gaming sessions should be no problem at all. The headset is also plenty comfortable with the ear pieces being quite large circumaural that allow them to completely cup and envelop your ears instead of sitting on top and putting pressure on them. The ear pads are soft memory foam and covered by microfiber, so they are breathable and won't get oily or clammy like the faux leather can get. The ear pads are not removable however, so cleaning or replacing them won't be as easy as some headsets that give this option. The microphone boom is flexible and can be removed completely, but you can't slide it out of the way and mute it like some other headphones allow you to do. You have to just move it out of your face and then hit the top most button on the left ear to actually mute the mic, which then shows a red LED light around the mic boom to show you are muted. You can also remove the microphone completely, but please note, when reconnecting the triangle plug it is keyed a specific way to fully seat and connect. Connectivity is achieved in one of 3 ways by changing the rocker switch: 1. Top = Bluetooth: this is great for people who work from home and want to quickly switch between work laptop and home PC. 2. Center = Off or Wired USB-C to USB-A: If you ran out of power or didn't bring your wireless dongle and the device doesn't support BT, you can still connect via USB cable. There is no 3.5mm support however. 3. Bottom = 2.4GHz RF: This is achieved via a tiny USB-C dongle and Asus also includes a USB-C female to USB-A male if you have a device that doesn't have USB-C ports, which is a nice touch. The main negative especially compared to the Delta, is that you have to physically change the modes using the switch instead of using a soft power button. This also seems to keep the headsets on, and while they may go into a low power state and battery life is very good overall, I like the soft power buttons that can auto-power off and also smart sense and switch between connections with the press of a soft-button. In terms of sound, the Pelta will not blow you away but they are very solid. Positional sound is good but limited to Stereo. Unlike the Delta, which actually enabled Dolby Atmos licensing in Windows, the Pelta is limited to basic 2 channel 16-bit 48Hz audio over RF and Windows Sonic for spatial sound. If you enjoy Asus ROG products but don't want to spend $200+ on a pair of headphones, you'll enjoy the Pelta. Sound quality is good and they are buttoned up enough so that you can use them for work and feel comfortable with how they look and sound.

I appreciate a good set of headphones since that’s the only way I play my games, particularly first person shooters on PC. Detailed sound is a huge advantage in these games, and while I’ve owned many brands of headsets in the past, this is the first ASUS branded headset I’ve used. Unpacking the headset was nice, seems like high quality material with a detachable microphone. The headset fits comfortably, but I wouldn’t say its super soft as I’ve seen some headsets, but I’ve had no problems or discomfort while playing games for hours. The paperwork said that when you plug it in you’ll have red/green light indicators, but I have not seen such lights. The lights come on the side of the headphones, but the colors change and it never settled on green after spending hours on the charge, so not sure what light they are talking about. Plug and play works as expected, and I installed the armory app so that I can have the extra settings and update the firmware. My suggestion is to not look for the Armory app on ASUS, but to find the product page and look under downloads to get it. I will say updating was a bit of a pain, because after I updated it kept saying it needed to update again, and I would continue again and again not knowing if I was updating anything or if the original update had failed, there were no version numbers provided for me to tell. It also wanted me to reboot my computer after doing updates, which is a real pain for me to do since I have all my personal and work stuff opened and setup. I’m not sure why my computer needs to reboot for an update to work on a headset, so that was aggravating, but I finally got through all the updates with the last one pushed out on 10/13/2025. The sound of the headset is solid and clear, and I would say its on par if not better than other gaming headsets I’ve used. I also use the headset for work during meetings, and I’m not a fan of how the default mic ‘on’ option is automatically on with no lights or indication, but if I disable the mic it turns red. I feel like it should be the opposite and there were no way to change it in Armory. I was able to disable the voice that says “Microphone On” to a Prompt sound which is much better when constantly turning on and off during meetings. I also enabled the Virtual Surround Sound in Armory as I figure this may work best in my FPS games. You have a few options to customize your headsets functionality including the equalizer, microphone enhancements, lighting, etc… My biggest disappoint with the headset was the range. While I only use Wifi mode, and not Bluetooth, going right outside my office the connection would begin to degrade and start sounding robotic or cutting out the further I got. Talking to friends between games (while getting water or stepping out) or being on a work meeting walking around was difficult and since I’ve used other headsets with good range, I had higher expectations for it. I will say changing the Connection Priority did help slightly in the Armory settings. Overall, other than the range, everything else is good or can be good once you are finally setup. My computer did crash once while plugging in the Wifi adapter, which is rare, but it hasn’t happened since. Quality of the mic and headset are good, you get battery life percentage in the app, and it has a pretty good sleep mode that automatically wakes up when you pick up the headset. I think the Armory software can use some updates and additional features for this headset, which luckily is possible for the most part and I hope to see some extra options down the road.

Fairly light, comfortable for long hours of wear and battery life that seems to last for days. One thing I did not like is the default sound that is quickly remediated once you get the Armoury Crate application installed. By default, it sounds very high pitched, like the focus is on foot steps and gun shots, which does not work well for many other applications. Same for the outgoing sound, as my teammate said it sounded small, like a tin can at times. Once you get the app installed you get all kinds of customizations. Overall presets based on things like movies, gaming, FPS or RPG. Which includes a full EQ with some common presets as well. You can individually customize all of them to your liking. Same for the microphone with noise gate, noise reduction and “perfect voice” sliders. You can adjust the lighting, which is just the logo on the sides, or disable it from there or by holding one of the headset buttons. It also helps extend the battery by leaving it off as well as other settings that you can change in the app. My biggest gripe with this headset is the painfully small switch for power and switching between Bluetooth, off and 2.4Ghz. It barely sits above the surface and is really stiff. Nice thing about it, you aren’t going to accidentally flip it. Then the mute for the microphone. The audio notification is so faint that you aren’t going to hear it while playing. But, there is a red light on the mic, when it works. I’ve had to unplug and plug the microphone back in a couple times to get it to register properly, otherwise I would have no idea the headset was muted. Then, out of nowhere I’m getting pop up notifications that the volume has changed, despite not touching the volume. Overall, this is a pretty solid headset and I am a fan of ASUS ROG. But, you have to have the Armoury Crate app to make it sound good and just trying to change that tiny power switch frustrates me every time I go to use it. The occasional missing LED for the mute seems to be an odd power cycle thing that can possibly get fixed in firmware, but is also irritating when you don’t want to blast everyone with a sneeze in their ear. Why can’t high dollar headsets like this use BT and 2.4Ghz at the same time like some others?

Great product, I had a BB gift card for Christmas and picked these up. Wanted to get way from my earbuds and get some actual headphones. Quality is good. Easy connectivity. Sound is great in games. Detachable microphone is a plus. The mic also has a muted/unmuted indicator light. Very comfortable for long periods. Yes there are other high end options but for around $100 these are really good. Also used with ROG Ally and connects instantly. Very happy with these. Has wired, BT and BT 2.4 ghz.

These headphones slap. Amazing battery life, great sound quality, and nice and comfortable

I would highly recommend this medium range headset. The cushions on your ears are not too heavy and don't make you sweat. A sound is fantastic and you can even adjust it some through an equalizer. Microphone may not be the best but it does. Its job pretty good and does a good job of not picking up outside sounds. So far I can say this has been the best set of headphones I've ever had.

I recommend these headphones. They're very comfortable, have good sound, and the battery lasts a long time.

My first $100 headset and ive been enjoying using them. I like that they can connect to bluetooth and my ps5. I dont game every day so they work good for me and the battery lasts a while.

I bought this for my son and he loves them. I did try them out and they are light and comfortable. The sound quality is pretty good and the mic works good no noise or static.

I owned a whole bunch of headsets from steel series and PlayStation headset and so far detect has been one of the best good Mic good quality.i use it on my pc and my ps5 and even on Bluetooth

The dongle to headset connection hasn't drop yet and the speakers are great and clear and the mic is great but sound leaks in and out of the headset other than that it's great par of gaming headset on Bazzite OS (Linux)

These headphones are really lightweight and comfortable. Great budget headphones plus the RGB lights (not customizable) are a nice touch.

Sounds really good, battery life's pretty good and mic quality is good
