Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the only the second pair of Turtle Beach headphones I've owned and these are a slight step up from the stealth pros. I was starting to have issues with the head band on the old pros and there is no fix for that so I upgraded to the newer pros. These have bigger drivers, the sound is better, the blue tooth connection send to be a lot better and more reliable. The ear pads are very nice and comfy for longer gaming sessions. The new app is very good and solid. The only problem I have with these headphones is the lack of any cushion across the top of the head. The two bars seem to rest right on your head and after a few seconds they feel like they are digging in, the little netting they have up there seems to be useless. If you can get used to that, then you have a very good pair of gaming headphones.

The sound is great. Love to be able to hear music from my phone and still be able to play and hear the game. The quality of the headset is better than the first version. Then the longer battery life is outstanding. Also the led color lets you know where the battery is at in the charging cycle. And the charger is better designed than the first one. It works well answering phone calls and also i use it as regular headphones to listen to music from my phone. I like the other interface for settings on the phone though.

After three years of use of the first pro it started to fail. I had to have the Pro II and don't regret it. Great fit/sound and I can wear them for hours

I was surprised when I initially saw the specs in this headset and saw it was from turtle beach, putting it on and using it is a whole new experience. Pleasantly surprised by how comfortable they are to wear, the battery life is great and the bass is fantastic over other more expensive commercial options.

Great product and outputs great sound very crisp. I can hear everything.

It's an amazing headset with amazing audio features, accessibility, and easy-to-set-up main features. It's a little heavy, but you get used to it. The only thing is that the extra transmitters are not included, and sometimes they might give a headache to set up. But other than that is an amazing headset.

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.

It’s better than the stealth pro first version and app works great and love that all you need is to press a button and you can switch consoles easily!

I have put in a lot of hours with different gaming headsets over the years, especially as an adult who balances late-night sessions with work and family life. The Turtle Beach Stealth Pro II feels like a solid upgrade from the original Stealth Pro that I used and mostly enjoyed. The first one was comfortable and worked well across my Xbox and PC, but it had some issues with sound clarity during intense games and the software could be finicky. This new version fixes those problems and adds real convenience for someone like me who jumps between consoles, PC, and even takes calls on my phone. The design has a clean, grown-up look that I appreciate, I’m a couple of months away from being 50 and have been gaming for approximately 45 years. It is not covered in flashy RGB or aggressive gamer styling, just nice aluminum parts, soft finishes, and simple accents that would not look out of place if I use it for a work call during the day. The headband has a mesh suspension that feels airy and spreads the weight evenly. It is not the lightest headset out there, but at this size it sits balanced on my head without digging in. The ear cups use memory foam with special cutouts that make wearing glasses way more comfortable, no more sore spots after a couple hours. They also breathe better than the older leather-style ones, which helps during those longer evenings when the room warms. The controls are straightforward with nice metal volume wheels that click satisfyingly and a button you can set up however you like. Overall, it feels like a BIG step up in build quality from the last model, more solid and less likely to show wear after months of regular use. Sound is where headsets make or break the experience for me. The new drivers give a much better sense of space in games, footsteps come from clear directions, explosions hit hard without muddling everything else, and dialogue stays crisp. It supports that fancy spatial audio setup, which really helps in competitive shooters or open-world games where knowing exactly where something is can make a difference. I also like the noise canceling that you can adjust depending on whether the kids are playing in the next room or I need full focus. There are simple preset modes for bass-heavy games or clearer voices, plus deeper tweaks if you want them. For music or streaming shows while gaming, it handles a nice range without sounding thin or overly boomy. It is versatile enough that I could see using it outside pure gaming sessions, which is a big plus at this price. Compared to the original, everything feels more separated and lively, which was one of my main complaints before. The microphone has been a reliable part of Turtle Beach headsets, and this one keeps that going. The boom arm is clear for team chat, with good noise reduction so background sounds do not bleed through. You can flip it up to mute or even take it off and use the built-in mics for casual stuff. It works well for Discord calls or quick work meetings, which matters when you are an adult trying to fit gaming into real life. The app lets you fine-tune things so your voice sounds natural without extra effort. I just find is strange they used the outdated Micro USB for the connection The feature I love is the CrossPlay system. It lets you switch between Xbox, PlayStation, PC, and other devices pretty seamlessly with extra transmitters. No more unplugging and re-pairing every time I move from the living room console to my desk PC. You can even have your phone connected at the same time for music or calls without interrupting the game audio, and control the volumes separately. For someone with multiple systems at home, this kind of flexibility is huge and saves a lot of frustration and money. Battery life is great too. Each pack lasts around 35 ish hours, and you get two that swap out easily. The dock charges the spare one while you play, so I can basically go days without thinking about plugging in. That beats constantly worrying about juice during a long weekend session or when I forget to charge overnight. It is one of those things that makes a big difference in daily use. The companion app on phone or PC handles all the customization in one place—sound settings, mic adjustments, and updates, it looks cleaner and more reliable than older versions, which had occasional glitches. Being able to tweak things quickly from my couch is convenient. Comfort is probably the biggest reason I keep coming back to certain headsets, and this one is built for real marathon nights. The foam and breathable materials keep my ears from getting too hot, and the fit stays secure without squeezing. It will handle a solid four- or five-hour session without me noticing much fatigue, something important when you cannot pull all-nighters like in your twenties anymore. At this price, it goes up against some strong competition, but the combination of easy switching between platforms, solid all-day comfort, and improved sound makes a strong case. You might need extra transmitters if you want the full multi-device setup, so keep that in mind for the total cost. The Stealth Pro II feels like Turtle Beach took the things people actually complained about with the original and made real improvements. As an adult gamer who wants one solid headset that works across everything without constant fiddling, this checks a lot of boxes. It is not just for pure competitive play, it fits nicely into a mixed routine of single-player stories, online matches, and even some non-gaming use. Sound quality, comfort, and convenience all seem dialed in for the long haul. If you are in the market for a premium wireless option and value versatility, I think this one as it nails everything.

I have been a fan of the stealth series headsets, having used the 700 line for a bit. Turtle Beach have stepped it up with the Pro II, the headset has a premium presentation and feel. In the box you get the headset, neatly packaged in the Hard Shell Storage Case. They headset also comes with a USB-A to USB-C cable, this is used to charge the headset or plug in the Transmitter dock (that charges, the included Spare Battery) a USB Wireless Transmitter, detachable headset, and some quick guide inserts. The batteries state to have 40 hours worth of charge and are swappable, the cover on the left is magnetically attached, lifting this gives you quick access to the battery. I have swapped the battery once check it out, the transmitter dock has a button that pops out the charging battery. The headphones are over the ear, and fit comfortably with the memory foam ear cushions, they are designed for glasses relief but have been using my contacts during my gaming sessions and have not tried that out yet. The anodized aluminum helps to add some durability to the headset with some soft touch material and mesh at the top for the headband. The mic lifts to mute, with a tone letting you know when you mute and unmute. I also appreciate the ability to adjust the mic position, you can lift and lower the mic to adjust the height, the mic itself has a little bend to it so you may adjust distance also. The Swarm II app is used to update your headset and transmitters, you can also use the app to adjust the sound profile, microphone settings, superhuman hearing, settings and button remapping. The signature sound profile has worked great for me, there are 4 presets, plus the ability to create custom EQs. I did enable the AI noise reduction to minimize background noise. I've been on a Diablo IV DLC/Season grind, but have also been playing a bit or Forza Horizon 6 since release. The headset is great for long sessions, I haven't felt irritation from the long sessions, and the battery has lasted through a couple so far without needing to be swapped or charged. I have been using the headset primarily on my Xbox, using the dock switched to Xbox, and connected to my phone via Bluetooth primarily for music during these sessions. I appreciate that Turtle Beach added the Bluetooth controls on the right side, you can adjust the volume of your device without needing to use your phone. The controls for the Game input is on the left, including Game/Chat volume by default this wheel can be changed, plus the mode button above that handles ANC by default. Audio has been great, throwing multiple inputs plus chat have been wonderful, you have enough adjustments at your fingertips to balance everything and make adjustments as needed quickly. The Spatial Audio, ANC with the Dual 60mm Drivers it's easy to immerse yourself in your game. Being on a PVE kick I haven't tried out the superhuman hearing, the next time I pop into Apex Legends I am going to test it out, I feel normal preset should work pretty well, but curious how much it boosts. Not being super competitive through, I may not use it if the audio tuning get thrown off to much as I can be a stickler for the sound. All in all, the Turtle Beach Stealth headsets have been a safe recommendation for me, Pro II helps me feel confident when I recommend them!

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!

I have quite a few Turtle Beach headsets around the house between myself and the kids. At this point I think we have 6 or 7 pairs of headsets with Stealth 500/600/700’s and a pair of the Atlas Air’s. I have been a fan of Turtle Beach’s headsets for years, and they are usually a pretty safe recommendation to anyone looking to snag a new headset. Before these I gamed on my Series X with a pair of Gen 2 500’s that I like a lot. I have had plenty of time to game with the Stealth Pro II’s, and it has been a pretty solid experience that gave me a great impression of the headset. What’s In the Box Inside the box you will find the headset enclosed in a very nice zippered carrying case. The case holds the headset, removable hinged mic, USB transmitter dongle, and battery charging transmitter station with cords. The transmitter station carries a backup battery for quick battery swaps – keep it plugged in and you will always have a topped off battery. The USB dongle can be used on a separate system – another Xbox, PC, or Playstation. Design The Stealth Pro II is a closed back design with rotatable earcups. The headset features a hinged, detachable mic on the left earcup along with the game volume/chat mix/mode. The volume control and chat mix are both 360° scrolling wheels without any stops. The chat wheel and mode button can be assigned to different functions. The default for the mode button is toggling the active noise cancellation function. Holding it for 2 seconds will toggle the mute status of the built-in mic. You can assign this button to toggle between the game sound presets, toggle the noise gate, or toggle the chat boost function. The chat mix wheel can be reassigned to adjust the mic monitoring volume, bass boost, treble boost, or noise gate volume. To change these assignments you need the Swarm II app on your device . The app saw the headset right away, and its just a matter of going through the settings to find the button assignments. The power button is also used to toggle Superhuman hearing mode. The right earcup carries the Bluetooth multi-function button (MFB), volume wheel for the Bluetooth device, and a source toggling button. This button can be used to toggle between the Bluetooth device, transmitter dock, and the USB transmitter. Swapping between sources is as easy as hitting that button. The volume wheel adjusts my phone’s volume without issue. The Bluetooth MFB button can be used to play/pause/answer a call/hang up with a single button push. Double click it will skip a song, triple click will restart/skip back, and press and hold will start up your device assistant. The headset uses an all-plastic headband build, which gives it plenty of flexibility. It still feels incredibly sturdy without feeling heavy. The headband is a tensioned mesh section more akin to a suspension style. The earcups can be adjusted up and down to tailor the fit of the height headset, and there is enough flex for those with wider heads. The earcups provide a decent amount of isolation on their own while still being made out of a soft/breathable fabric. The left earcup holds the microphone when it is attached. The mic boom is about 5” long and is bendable, which allows you to position it as needed. The receiver section of the mic is not rigidly held in the head. Instead it is held by an array of vibration reducing dampeners, which are aimed at reducing any noise/distortion from external vibrations. The mic features the standard flip-to-mute function as well. The headset has a 40 hr battery life per battery, which is pretty decent. The 40 hr runtime per battery will be reduced if you employ the active noise cancelling, mic monitoring/sidetone, and simultaneous 2.4/Bluetooth connections. In my usage the battery life dropped only a couple of hours, and I still got north of 36 hrs out of one charge. I typically get 30-40 feet of range with other Bluetooth 5.X devices, which is roughly what I’m getting with the Stealth Pro’s. Using the 2.4GHz mode gives me considerably more range – I’m able to walk 75+ feet away without any issue. feet away from my PC at my office without any loss of sound or cutting out. The headset uses 60mm drivers, which are the largest drivers I have had in a headset. Normally I see 40mm or 50mm drivers, which isn’t necessarily an indicator of sound quality. The one area I have noticed larger drivers handling better is with spatial sound. The larger driver creates a larger soundstage and seems to handle virtual surround/spatial sound better than the smaller drivers. Comfort I love a suspension band headset – they are just consistently the most comfortable design for me. This hybrid design is pretty good, but doesn’t quite match up to the comfort of my Atlas Airs or my 500X’s. Both of those designs feature a nice wide suspension band along with a lightweight design. The Stealth Pro II’s are a little heavier and the hybrid suspension band just doesn’t have enough tension to keep the main plastic band from resting on my head right at the top. The earcups feel great, so I have no complaints there. I wear glasses and these work great without any discomfort or smashing of my frames into the side of my head. Comfortable but not perfect - 3.5/5. Compatibility The Xbox version of the Stealth Pro II’s are compatible with Xbox using the transmitter dock. The transmitter dongle gives you compatibility with PC and Playstation. The Bluetooth connection gives you compatibility with mobile devices and Nintendo Switches. The only compatibility gap is with wired devices. Still, that covers the vast majority of devices that people will use this headset with, so I am more than happy with it’s compatibility. Sound The Stealth Pro II’s have 4 different EQ profiles to choose from: Signature, Bass Boost, Bass+Treble Boost, Vocal Boost. These EQ modes are only accessible through the Swarm II software or app. There is not an “EQ Mode” button on the headset, but you can assign the Mode button to cycle through the presets. You can also create up to 5 different custom EQ’s to fit the sound profile you want to hear. The Signature EQ is a flat profile for an “all-around” sound mode. Bass Boost picks up the lows, while Bass+Treble picks up the lows and highs for a V shape profile. Vocals picks up the mids and highs, and works well for calls, audiobooks, TV, etc. Turtle Beach includes Superhuman Hearing mode, which you have to turn on in the app. I am still not a fan of this sound modification – it does function well for hearing footsteps or gunshots better – I will give it that. However, it makes the soundstage feel empty/dead, and it just mutes out too much of the sound field for my taste. The 60mm drivers have a deep/full sound with great clarity. They have plenty of punch/depth that I want to hear out of my headsets. The Stealth Pro II’s are some of the best sounding headphones I have heard outside of my wireless studio monitors. The mids and highs are handled well and stand out even in a bass heavy song. I, for the most part, enjoy the Bass+Treble preset for music. When I game I usually switch to the Signature sound, but I have a custom preset with a similar V profile to the Bass+Treble that I will toggle to for certain games. At lower volumes the drivers have enough sensitivity to handle the entire frequency range without sounding muddy or muted. For games I’ve mostly been playing Halo Infinite on Xbox. The headset handles the Dolby Audio so well – the virtual surround is great. Gunfire and explosions felt directional – I could hear it behind me, in front, all around. It doesn’t feel like I missed a sound at all. They sound more than good enough to eschew my big home theater surround system in favor of the headset. On top of the game sounds my team chat came through very clear as well. The chat mixer on the left earcup comes in handy to dial in that sound mix. Sidetone on the headset is great as well – I didn’t have to adjust it at all out of the box. Mic The headset carries 2 mics. A built-in mic that can be used when the removable boom mic is not attached, and the aforementioned boom mic. The built-in mic is muted by default, so you have to unmute (press and hold the mode button to unmute) it before using it to chat. The built-in mic also allows sidetone functions without needing the boom mic installed. For the most part the built-in mic works well – its similar to the mic on my gym earbuds, which means its serviceable. I would avoid using it as your sole mic if your plan to play in a loud environment or talk quietly. The removable boom mic, on the other hand, is significantly more capable. The mic does a great job of isolating my voice and cutting out the background noises. When my HVAC runs some mics will pick it up or muffle my voice while trying to filter it out. This mic handled it better than most, and eliminated that noise without any adverse effects on my voice. There is no windscreen on the mic, but I didn’t notice it pick up any breathing noises. It handled game chats with ease – my party mates heard me loud and clear. Phone and Teams calls were also handled very well. Conclusion Overall, the new Stealth Pro II Xbox Edition is solid headset entry, and a must have for Xbox users. They offer the widest compatibility out of any headset system outside of those that also have 3.5mm support. Sound quality is top notch for music and games. The built-in mic is super handy for when I don’t want to attach the boom mic. The boom mic is very capable, and one of the better mics I have used without going to a separate mic setup. The earcups are very comfortable and isolating even without ANC enabled. Build quality on the headset is also superb –it is very well put together and it feels like a design that will hold up long term. The only knock on the headset is the hybrid suspension headband. It needs tweaking in future iterations to either tension the mesh more or switch to a traditional suspension band.

Headsets have come a long way in both sound a feel and this headset is proof and point of that testament. I have been using these headset with my Xbox now for about a week and have been pleasantly surprised in two primary areas of focus; sound and fit/feel of the headset. Sound if first and foremost the biggest hitting feature that I have been enjoying with these headphones. Responsive, clear and rich sound is what to expect with this headset. I have noticed that sometimes PC headphones are better sounding but not in this case. The high pitch sounds are amazing and deep rich base is nothing to scoff at either! From a build standpoint these headphones are as comfy as they can get. The canvas ear coverings look and feel more like a soft leather than a material. The head mesh is very supportive too and does not snag my hair or rub my the wrong way. These headphones have a crossplay transmitter (works across 4 devices at a time) which has a battery port (noted up to 30 hours of game play) where each of the 30 batteries allow countless hours of use-time. Everything from the buttons to the AI based noise-cancelling features all contribute to the superior look, feel and functionality of this headset. All in all, although this headset is marketed toward a console, its ability to seamless switch between multiple sources makes this a powerhouse amongst its competitors. The look and feel are well thought out and cannot help but give me recording studio vibes.

Amazing headset, superior quality, active noise canceling work great, connects quickly to the base station, easy spawable batteries that reconnects in a few seconds, comfortable to wear and more. This is probably the best gaming headset i have ever used. This model will connect to PC or Xbox. You can be simultaneously connected to your phone at the sane time when you are gaming. A little pricy but you will not regret. 80 hours or more of combined play time with two batteries. Would be again if it did break and also got Best Buy Total tech. If you the cash, must have.

I love these for PC and Xbox. The quality is great, sound is amazing, extra features are well thought out. Unboxing: The device and extras are all packed in a high-quality layout. The headphones are found inside a large hard case. Included items are the headphones, mic boom, USB-C cable, USB-A transmitter (for PC or PlayStation), USB A battery charger & transmitter (for Xbox or another device), and one extra battery. I was very impressed with all the extras included, especially so you don’t have to move dongles or cables from one device to another. I had my chagrin dock/transmitter attached to the Xbox, my USB dongle attached to the PlayStation, and I use USB-C on PC for highest quality. Setup: I recommend downloading the Swarm II software on your PC first to update all the dongles and headphones initially to the latest firmware. If you just want to update your headphones you can download the app to your phone as well. After update, setup is extremely easy as all you need to do is plug devices in where you want them and, if needed, select the appropriate audio device. Audio: On PC I can get up to 24bit 96kHz audio via the dongle or USB-C. On Xbox the transmission is from the dongle or charging station, but it works very well. I am impressed by the integration of Dolby Atmos, playing a game with lots of 3D sound like Call of Duty or Overwatch 2, it does a great representation of objects from all angles without sounding too fake or “virtual”. It is a great feature as it can provide some good clues as to where the other players are. As for music it is also great to wear during work or coding sessions. EDM is bass heavy on the default tuning but not overpowering. Vocals are clear with all details being crips. Highs such as pianos and percussion are easy to pick out. I did all my music testing using Spotify lossless at a minimum of 16bit 44.1kHz FLAC ANC is amazing as is transparency and can be toggled with the push of a button on the left earcup. I like the voice passthrough (there is a volume function for this too) to see how things sound. Microphone: It took me a bit to get used to the mic operation as some games have their own PTT but in general, having the boom up or down determines if the mic is on or off. The dongle or charging transmitter will also indicate mic state based on the color displayed. It is crystal clear when in use. Other features: I love the charging station / transmitter that I hooked up to the Xbox. The battery can easily be removed on the left earcup and swapped out in seconds with the spare battery. There is also a “superhuman hearing” setting in the software which allows things like footsteps or weapons to be enhanced for easier hearing in FPS games for example.

I've been buying Turtle Beach headsets since 2008 when I was gaming on my Xbox 360. I'm currently have these headsets connected (Via Bluetooth) to my Xbox Series X and the sound quality sound great on my Series X. The installed 60mm drivers made the bass really stand and the treble sound great (thanks to the 60mm drivers) when I'm playing fps and role-playing games. The Swarm II app has an equalizer that can be used to adjust the sound quality. The headset feels comfortable and the padded earpiece didn't cause my ears to feel hot or start to sweat after several hours of gaming. The microphone I haven't used yet since I rarely voice chat while I'm online gaming. The 2 swappable batteries are a plus in which I keep one battery fully charged until it's time to the dead battery. Overall, the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro II is my favorite Turtle Beach headset to date, and I will continue to buy Turtle Beach headsets for years to come.

Upgraded from the original stealth pros to this new headset. The build quality on these are amazing, sound is much clearer and the headset actually reconnects in a reasonable amount of time compared to the old stealth pros. Haven’t had any issues over the past few weeks, battery life is amazing and the anc got a huge upgrade too!

The gaming headset market is extremely crowded. Admittedly there are lots of terrific options. I’ve used all sorts of brands, but the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro II might have taken the crown as the best one I’ve used yet. Don’t get me wrong, it’s worth a pretty penny, but the features and versatility make this a great choice for anyone that is serious about gaming and serious about audio quality. IN THE BOX In the box you will find a massive hardshell case. I must say, I was a little turned off by how big this case is. It certainly protects the headset, but it will be tough to fit in your backpack. Inside the case you’ll find the headphones, a “puck” with extra battery in it, USB-C to A cable, and the boom microphone, and a USB dongle. Setup is dead simple, for my Xbox, I plugged in the puck/transmitter to the front USB port of my Xbox Series X. For PS5, I used the USB dongle transmitter. Both worked flawlessly out of the box - true plug and play. The microphone attaches to the headset via what looks like, an old micro-USB connection. DESIGN AND COMFORT When pulling it out of the case, you immediately feel the premium nature of this headset. It’s made with an aluminum frame, mesh fabric on the headband, and memory foam ear cushions. While I obviously haven’t tried every headset on the market, I would think you’d be hard pressed to find one more comfortable. It’s not so light that you forget you’re wearing it, but you forget your wearing it because it doesn’t cause any irritation. I played for several hours straight with my friends and I never got hot and I never felt in pinching or irritation around my ears (which is not something I can personally say for all my headsets). There’s a number of buttons on the headset, but they’re all smarty designed, not overwhelming, and easy to remember where they are without taking your headset off to look at them. SOUND PERFORMANCE These headsets actually have separate woofers and tweeters inside the cups. This separation truly creates deep bass that sound separate and distinct from the crisp mids and high sounds. They sounded accurate and true. They really were impressive. In playing games that require you to detect sounds from all directions, I had no issues knowing where the sound was coming to and recognizing it. It truly excelled in games that require high end audio or distinct audio cues. In terms of microphone/chatting performance I absolutely loved the sidetone - that is, the ability to hear yourself talk. Some headsets don’t project your voice when chatting into the headset - so you might find yourself yelling. Here, you can hear yourself talk and you can quickly adjust the volume of the sidetone via wheel on the cup of the headset on the fly. DUAL BATTERY SWAP SYSTEM This is truly another star of the show and such a great idea. You could of course charge your headset after each use to make sure it’s ready to go for every session. But we don’t always do that. And then it might die mid session and you’re forced to plug it in, played wired etc. Here, you don’t have to worry about charging it. You just leave the spare battery in the charging puck/transmitter and whenever your headset dies, you simply swap them out. The battery is hidden behind a magnetic cover on one of the ear cups, and it swaps out in seconds. The process is as fast as it takes you to walk to where you leave the battery/puck to charge and seconds to swap it out. And then you’re literally back in the game. It’s such an ingenious idea and smart execution so that you truly never have to worry about charging your headset. Of course, you can charge your headset via USB-C cable if you’d like, but I see no reason to do so (absent you traveling with it). The headset also has Bluetooth capability, so you can connect it to your phone or Switch 1 / 2. It works as you’d expect, with a pairing button on the ear cup. You simple hit a button to switch modes between wireless transmitter and Bluetooth. I didn’t try to connect it to my phone, as I don’t envision anyone taking this headset out on the road listening (it’s too bulky) but you certainly could. And I appreciate the versatility of using one headset for all my systems. CONCLUSION This headset is absolutely a substantial investment. But if you are serious about gaming, audio quality, and quality of life touches/designs, you should definitely consider it. It’s super comfortable and can serve as your headset for all your devices from Xbox, PS, Nintendo, PC and your phone.

I play on Xbox for a couple hours per day on average. I haven't used this with a PC or PS5 and I've owned it for about 3 weeks I think. Things I like: 1. The sound is great, for most games I used the signature sound option and I set presets for Black Ops 7 multiplayer/warzone and Rock Band 4. BO7/Warzone so I can hear other players better and Rock Band 4 because the game itself seems to increase the sound of whatever instrument type you're playing and that didn't work well with the signature sound setting. 2. I'm coming from a very old Turtle Beach headset (like 15 years old) so it's really nice to be able to answer a call or play music through the headset while playing a game. The bluetooth sound mixer wheel works very well and easy to adjust on the fly. 3. Likewise, the chat mixer wheel also works pretty well and I was impressed with the microphone settings that are present. Friends I play with say the mic sounds good from their side. Reasons for 4 stars instead of 5: 1. For a person who's bald, it can get a little uncomfortable after 1 hour. This is going to be different for everyone but for me, the mesh seems to put pressure on a specific point on my head. I'm trying a couple third party options to help with this. 2. A recent firmware update wiped out my custom presets which I spent a decent amount of time working on. Luckily I only had the two presets mentioned above, but it seems like those should have been saved. 3. Sometimes the Swarm app will not connect to the headset even though it's connected to my phone via bluetooth. Bluetooth is notoriously unreliable so I'm not dinging it too much for that, just something I've noticed a couple times. Turning bluetooth off and back on fixed that for me.

I am enjoying my headset fully. I have taken the time to create my own custom sound profile for the games i play and the extra battery that charges for on the fly switching is extra nice. it comes with extra dongle for switching to another device listed above BUT you can plug it into the base of the switch 2 dock and it works with it as well which is a plus. easy set up. get the main transmitter plugged in and powered up and thats it. for switch 2 make sure the switch it on first then plug the extra into the dock then hit the button on headset to switch the small dongle and done. its also recognized be the switch 2 as it show cases the name of the headset when turning it up and down.
