Customer Ratings & Reviews

With the high cost of premium headsets these days - they should absolutely pack enough features to serve as an All-In-One device...able to seamlessly function as a gaming headset and as quality headphones for calls, music, and podcasts in the office, or on the go. Turtle Beach has FINALLY found a spectacular balance - offering incredible all-in-one functionality at a truly competitive price. The cost of the Stealth Pro II is on the pricey side, but Turtle Beach has 100% justified the cost with an abundance of features, stellar sound, and all in a truly easy to use device. The Stealth Pro II competes with the far more expensive Arctis Nova Elite from SteelSeries, but I believe that the Turtle Beach genuinely comes out on top. The Stealth Pro II has MUCH better bass, is far easier to use, and is a much better value for the same build quality. The Stealth Pro II is not perfect, but it is darn close. The headset is comfortable for hours on end - even when worn over glasses. Syncing with multiple devices simultaneously is an absolute breeze. Sync to your phone via Bluetooth. Connect to your Xbox by simply plugging in the battery charging station. And, connect to your PC or Laptop with the with the USB dongle. All audio connections can work at the same time making it incredibly simple to use your phone or laptop in-between online gaming matches. The Active Noise Cancellation is only decent, but it works better than passive noise cancellation alone. Audio passthrough works well and at the press of a single button you are able to chat with people in the room without taking off the headset. I do wish that there were vocal prompts to explain the mode being selected with each button press, but with some practice the user will become accustomed to the functionality of each button (functions which can often be customized within the mobile app). My other minor gripes are: - The included hardshell case is absolutely massive - almost laughably so - Bluetooth audio is not automatically paused when the headset is taken off of the head - Earcups do not contain cooling gel and can get rather warm - Earcups are fabric and feel as though they will eventually absorb sweat - Earcups are not easily removeable or replaceable - There is no auto activation of audio passthrough mode. The user must manually press a physical button Overall, it is incredibly easy to recommend the Stealth Pro II as I genuinely believe that they are the best headset Turtle Beach has ever produced. While they are quite large, they are incredibly balanced. No other headset can be worn around the neck so comfortably - which makes them very portable. The boom mic is incredibly flexible and holds its shape - and you can actually use the headset with only the internal mics as well. Swappable batteries are included and each last for several days at a time. And, unlike the Actis Nova Elite, you can charge with a USB-C cable without having to remove the cap on the ear cover. Do yourself a favor and splurge on the Stealth Pro II. You will absolutely find yourself using them for more than just gaming. They will become your all-in-one headphones for gaming, movies, music, phone calls, and everything else. Bravo Turtle Beach...I applaud you. Well done.

The Turtle Beach Stealth Pro 2 Wireless Gaming Headset is the most versatile headset I have come across to date. Not only is it the first headset to work with every platform, it is also the first headset I have encountered to come with three connection modes. First, you have the handy two-in-one wireless transmitter/charging dock that simultaneously charges the extra battery and sends a wireless signal to your Stealth Pro 2 headphones. That’s right, these headphones come with two batteries, meaning one goes down, pop it in the charging dock, while grabbing the waiting already-charged battery out of the dock and you're good to go without being tethered to a wire for charging. Second, you have a regular USB wireless dongle /transmitter and lastly, you have Bluetooth. This means you can be connected to three devices simultaneously right out of the box, one for each of the 2.4 GHz wireless transmitters and one for the Bluetooth connection. You can even add up to two more 2.4 GHz dongles. However, the Stealth Pro 2’s do not support traditional Bluetooth Multipoint connections. Additionally, these headphones also have another first. They actually have two separate volume wheels, one for your Bluetooth connection and one for the 2.4 GHz connection and the headphones are capable of blending. Meaning you can listen to the game and music simultaneously while adjusting the volume for each source separately to get the blend of sound just how you want it. Or alternatively, you can customize the volume wheels or use the different pre-made profiles found on any of the software for the Stealth Pro 2 headphones, which is called Swarm II, depending on the platforms you are using and the activities you are doing. The software is available on Windows, Mac OS, Android and IOS. Additionally, there is also a separate wheel for the microphone as well as a Bluetooth button, a power button, a mode button for switching between different sound modes and a button for switching between different sound sources. These headphones are also equipped with 24-bit/96kHz Hi-Res Audio wireless sound via the 2.4 GHz connections, as long as your game system or PC is equipped with it. They are also equipped with a multiple-microphone array, enabling multi-directional sound capturing through the detachable microphone boom with Flip to mute. The Stealth Pro II headphones are the most groundbreaking, technologically advanced gaming headphones I have seen to date. Coincidentally, to go along with all of these technological features, Turtle Beach has also produced the best presentation from the box to the really nice hardcase that is included, which has a spot for every accessory and room for extras as well as some very premium-looking and feeling materials. The end result is some great-looking and great-sounding headphones that do it all with software that gives the ability to make them yours and adapt to your use case. They do perform better for gaming and watching videos than they do listening to music. They do sound really good; however, I do have a couple of other headphones in this price range that sound better, especially for music. Since these are made with music listening as a secondary function after gaming and they are the most versatile gaming headphones I have seen, I would definitely recommend them, especially for someone who uses multiple gaming platforms!

Very comfortable on your ears. Sound quality is amazing. Only 1 issue so far with connection issues. Had to reset and they worked again.

Great sound, but I found it uncomfortable after a few hours due to the band. I wish they put a support band like the Nova Pro Omnis

I LOVE Turtle Beach, they have had some of my favorite headphones over my entire gaming lifetime (which is extensive). These would be my absolute favorite headphone of theirs except I can't wear them for any length of time over 30 minutes. I've never had a headphone with the mesh 'hammock' for a headband but I've quickly learned that it is probably the worst for my head. That being said, that is mostly on me since my advanced age has removed the hair padding from the top of my head, and genetics has given me a bit of a point to my head. ALL headband headphones have been painful for me after relatively short time, but the Stealth Pro II is probably the shortest time of all. This is a shame, because they are by far the sexiest gaming headphones I've ever had, and both the sound and earpad comfort are the absolute BEST out of any headphone I've had. My only other complaint other than the headband is the smell of the foam in the storage case. The off-gassing from that has been horrible! I have had it in my garage for a week now and it STILL smells and now my garage also smells bad! Like I said above though, there is SO MUCH to love about this headset. If you have a generous quantity of hair on your head (or perhaps not as sensitive as mine), these are easily the BEST gaming headphones you can get right now. I'll highlight a few of the things that I'm really gonna miss after a week of gaming with these: 1. Style AND Substance: This thing oozes style and feels like a premium headphone. It is solid, with no creaks, squeaks, or rough edges. Simply the most premium gamin headphone I've ever owned and it's up there with some of the audiophile ones I used to own. 2. Those EarPods: Like clouds. If they could put that thickness of this foam on the headband for me, I'd be in heaven. AND they stay cool! Just awesome. 3. Sound Quality/Settings: If you can't get them best sound you've ever heard from a game out of these, you did something wrong. Out of the box and with no tweaking whatsoever, they sound phenomenal. When you open up the Swarm II app (which you MUST do), you will be able to tweak everything down to the smallest detail and get exactly the sound you need. No wimpy 4 or 6 band EQ here, you get a 10 BAND equalizer and a ton of custom save slots to create all kinds of profiles. 4. Swarm II App: Hands-down the best app for a headphone I have used, even compared to those audiophile ones. You almost kinda need the app because one of my only other quibbles with the Stealth Pro IIs are the ridiculous amount of buttons and wheels on the ear cups. Perhaps I'd get better muscle memory if I wore them longer but I was screwing things up more than I wanted by using the physical buttons. It was just so much easier to change settings with the App. 5. Battery Life: I only just now swapped out the installed battery with the backup one you get (and stays charged in the connector dock), and I was playing HARD and LOUD for the week. Easy to swap out and keep going with your game. I also can't believe how small that battery is! I'm old but MAN is battery engineering getting really, really good! 6. Connections: So easy to connect to anything you want, even all at once! I had the Stealth Pro IIs connected via Bluetooth to my phone, and I used the connection puck/battery charger with my Xbox Series X. Super easy to do connect to both, and you get another USB stick to connect to another console or device to make these your all-in-one headphones. Ok, I guess I have one more quibble. I wish there were a way to turn off the indicator light around the connector puck, because when I don't want to use headphones, it is constantly flashing looking for the headphones to be on. Not a big deal if you have it out of the way, but mine sits right on my desk and it is annoying. Conclusion: While these are not cheap headphones, the are an outstanding VALUE. You get premium everything with these, the ability to use with virtually any (and multiple) device(s), and the ability to have multiple tailored sounds, make the Stealth Pro IIs a virtual sound system for everything and not just one of many headsets/bars/speakers you might have. Simply amazing, but unfortunately my noggin just can't seem to handle headband headphones any longer. Though I'm gonna spend quite some time to see if I can find a way to make these work. It would be worth whatever time and money it requires.

Get to heavy when play more the 2-3 hrs , not sure how long the band will hold out but it was pretty close to hitting the top bars

The Turtle Beach stealth pro II wireless over-ear headphones are phenomenal. However, they are a bit on the heavy side, and you can lose the magnetic battery cap if that side touched metal. Besides those two flaws i noticed everything else is perfection. The sound quality is just amazing. The packaging it comes in, Turtle Beach really went all out on this headset. The rest is as simple as plug and play and you are all set. I do love the feature that it allows you to connect to a Bluetooth device and still use the headset for other things while possible listening to your favorite music or talking to someone else. The mic produces quality voice with no distortion. The noise canceling works great for those games where you have to be listening to any footsteps or minor noises. Volume is adjustable and like i said the sound quality is just amazing. The cushion over the ear is comfortable but the weight can affect keeping them on for a long period of time. The battery life is perfect, and it comes with a second battery for when needed. Overall, very nice headset and would recommend just beware that they can be heavy but overall, very comfortable.

If you're looking for a comfortable and lightweight but well built headset, then you'll love this new one from turtle beach. I've tried out several headsets over the years and always go back to turtle beach. They last forever, have great sound quality, good mics and quality materials. This is an upgrade from my previous headset that was heavier and less breathable as the padding and headband were more leather like materials. I prefer the comfort of this headband. There are on ear wheels to adjust sound, background mix and chat for adjusting mid game if needed. The mic is different than my previous headset but seems to work well. Pairing and updating was super quick and easy with my phone and the app let's you swap profiles or adjust anc etc easily. The second battery is a nice change from the previous version I have and will make it easy to keep gaming when the battery runs low. Anc seems to work well. My only complaint is putting the mic up doesn't appear to mute it like the previous model so I have to keep the headset in push to talk mode and I would rather not have to do that. Overall a great pick.

I have been using the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro II for about a week now and the Stealth Pro II's are the first gaming headset I have used that approaches audiophile quality, gosh even the design is more like something you would get from Apple or Bose. Build quality is impressive, mesh there is nice brushed metal, no RHB backlights, chrome-accents - seriously you could wear this out (remove the mic) and people would assume the Stealth Pro II is a high end music headset. Out of the box the Stealth Pro II's are already impressive. You get a quality lined padded hard case that neatly holds the Steal Pro II's, the removal boom mic, the external battery dock, USB A to USB C cable, and standard USB A dongle. Setup was mostly easy, but I would recommend setting up on your PC the first time using the Turtle Beach Swarm II app. The app is free, no registration required. First use there are firmware updates for everything and it's just easy to manage on a PC (although I am sure it would be OK doing it first time on your Xbox). I spent this weekend playing Forza 5 (counting down until Forza 6) and with ANC turned on, the Stealth Pro's are an incredible immersive, rich sounding headset. It's crazy how clear the audio is, although my ears did sweat on extended game play. I'm not sure if I have the stamina for 40 hours game play non-stop which is what the battery is rated. I do like they include an extra battery and you can swap and continue. I don't play with a headset all the time, so have been caught in the past with a dead battery and thankful there is a spare. In terms of voice chat, the boom mic is flexible and removable. I did some comparisons between the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro II and my old Logitech gaming headset and friends said the Stealth sounded much better. I did discover (made me laugh) is that these can be connected to your Xbox and phone simultaneously, and also took a phone call via the Stealth II. That's pretty awesome. Overall, I love the Turtle Stealth Pro IIs. Amazing sound, great voice quality, multiple device support, swappable battery. They could small negative is like I said earlier, the passive noise cancelation makes them a complete fit and my ears did sweat after a few hours - but we'll blame the start of summer for that!

There are a couple of issues with this headset - in aggregate - that push it to a 4 star rating. For initial setup, and I am sure someone will tkae issue with this, but the unit just failed to connect to the Swarm II app until I charged it. The paperwork said first thing was firmware update, which is fine, but if you are not going to send the unit pre-charged state that as the FIRST action to take - it wasn't even mentioned. Once it was charged, the upgrade and connection went fine though. Second thing - comfort (the important part I mentioned) - which is a pretty big deal for a headset. Though you have basically unlimited adjustment freedom with the headband (the arms are not notched or anything - this should be noted as a highlight), the headband itself is not comfortable. I think making it wider would have helped, or cushing instead of the stretchy band. Off your head, the unit does not feel 'heavy'. My teenager also had some gripe about the earphones themselves, but I personally did not have any issues in that regard. Onto the positives. The case and everything inside is exceptional - everything has a place and you're not just throwing stuff in there. The included USB cable is nice and long. I appreciate the removeable microphone, and ease of mute. The controls in general are easy to use. I like the fact that it comes with two batteries, so as long as you are charging one in the dock, you should never have any downtime. The in-use battery is covered by a magnetic cover, which stays on when needed and is easy enough to get off. At this point I cannot speak to the life of the batteries unfortunately. Sound quality is similar to other Turtle Beach offerings of the same ilk, both for phone/music use and Microsoft XBox multiplayer gaming. That all being said, there are multiple highlights.

With these headphones, it all comes down to how important sound quality is to you, in my opinion. If having excellent sound quality is most important, these are the ones for you and they are worth the money....maybe. I was quite impressed with the 60mm drivers and how they produced strong bass, that bomb immersice surround sound effects, and prime audio for my shooting and character-driven games. I must also highlight that they are noticeably better than older Turtle Beach models and comparable to some more expensive well known competitors (who shall remain nameless). Another Pro: Outstanding battery life The promised 80-hour battery life is one of its strongest selling points because its actually true! I have gone weeks in between charges. Another PRO: Flexibility: The Xbox version can work with Xbox, PlayStation, PC, and even my mobile devices. BIG BIG Pro: The Bluetooth + game audio simultaneously I can phone calls, music, or podcasts while gaming! HUGE WIN! CON: Not the best microphone: I mean, its okay for basic chat, but not really great for streaming or if you're a content creator. CON: Large and bulky - Not bad at first, but for long gaming sessions, this becomes really obvious and annoying. CON: The Swarm app is hit or miss. Sometimes it works fine, other times its really buggy and has connectivity issues. I read other users had these issues too on the forums. CON: Price point; depending on if pricing is a make or break for you, the price on these is high. However, if these PROS are your main priorities, then these are a winner.
