The cable is included and connects to the bottom of the newer controllers (not the day one edition because the lack of the 3.5 connector) they sound amazing. Crisp clear. A50s cost way more but that's a different class of headphones. Your paying more for noise cancelling but have the half the battery life.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Actually that is not correct. It comes with a plug for it to sync your headset with your system. THAT piece needs to stay plugged in anytime you play, but the headset itself is completely wireless. Only has to be plugged in when charging.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believe this is a limitation driven by the Xbox hardware, which only supports sound output via a controller and wire, and that there isn't a lot that the headset manufacturers can do to change that.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Because there is a wireless receiver that connects via USB to your PC. This specific headset, from what I've read in the manual, can only be attached via your controller. So the cord from the headset goes right into your controller. If you play on the PC even a little bit, I would NOT hesitate to buy the Arctis 7's. If you're strictly console only, definitely go with those Astro's.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The astros still have a wire aswell for the xbox
