Customer Ratings & Reviews

Sound/dolby is great however they chirp and need reconnected every once in a while. Also the headband cushion pops off constantly but nothing a little super glue won’t fix.

The headset base feature is cool. The range is not the best. When you walk out of the room it loses connection. The sound and the features are really decent for the Xbox headset though. The charging dock is a big sell for me as I have a place I can sit the headset when not using it.

The only issue I have with this headset is at times will have to be disconnected from the power source because it won’t connect to the Xbox. It’s comfortable and a bit pricey but worth it.

Absolutely comfortable and easy to setup. The sound quality is insanely clear and the bass is there when you need it.

Great headset but poor battery quality. Excellent sound quality and comfort.

Very decent headset but could be a little more sturdy if you’re a heavy gamer.

I dont like the price tag, but this version of the headset is much better than the last. The ear cups are way softer the sound is better and the controls are easier to use plus the docking station is an added bonus

Astro is the way to go! Tried a few different headsets and finally went with Astro A50s. I love the sound quality, the comfort, and most importantly, the ability to hear stuff on pc while playing on Xbox.

Plugged it in to the Xbox and worked without any issues. However, I tried updating the firmware using my Mac and it was nothing but painful. The update failed every time! I wasn’t even able to change any sound settings on the Astro command center (ACC). Every time I plugged in by headset to my Mac and opened the ACC it stated “required firmware update”, it started the update but failed. Apparently this has been an ongoing issue. I’m not sure how this affects my headset but it seems to be working just fine on my XoneX. Sounds amazing! I’m upgrading from aTurtle Beach elite 800x and this A50 sounds far superior! I hope Astrogaming will get their sh** together and fix this problem! This issue hasn’t been resolved since Dec 2019!

I use these on PC and when coupled with the software, I can hear directional footsteps in games with ease. I had the Gen3 A50's and had to upgrade to the Gen4's, worth it!! They are pricey, but worth every penny in my opinion. Here are my settings people can use as a basis to tune to their liking: + Windows 10 - Connections = USB only - Installed and activated Dolby Access app (2 year license in box) - Spatial Sound = Dolby Atmos for Headphones + Dolby Access app for Windows 10 - Selected option = Game - Game settings = Performance Mode set to On + Astro Command Center -EQ Setting = Astro preset (or A50 Mod Kit if you have it) + CoD:MW 2019 - Profile = Home Theater - Master = 100 - Music = 0 - Dialogue = 50 - Effects = 100

The headphones are AMAZING but heavy, after a hour you'll notice. Besides the weight it's perfect for FPS games and even movies. I wear glasses and never had a issue. I do admit it's very over priced and she be $200-250

This is the best headset i evee had, it’s comfortable for long hours, and has great sound. This is a must buy

Comfortable good sound what more do you want? Dolby code comes with it and makes a big difference to adjust the eq in the app. Just wished this worked for ps without buying a new base for $99

Comfortable and the battery last forever. 10/10 would recommend.

These Astro A50s are still a top of the line choice for a Gaming Headset. the unique dual Game/Voice channel makes it very easy to setup discord channel and game sounds as separatly mixed via the right ear cup toggle. a very clever design. this is my 2nd set, one for my primary gaming rig, and another at my friends house when I use their spare pc.

I would say these are one of the most comfortable sets of headphones I have ever purchased. The sound quality is what I expected for the price and very pleased with the purchase.

I wanted to love this headset and let’s just say I only like it. The build quality of this is amazing and I love the charging stand. However, the headset squeezed my head for the first 12 hours I used it until it formed to my head and while it’s better, it still feels tight. My biggest complaint is when this is plugged in to my Xbox, I have to unplug and re-plug in the usb cable to my Xbox every time you turn my Xbox on to get it to register with my Xbox. This is an issue I’ve noticed with both the A50’s and A40’s. Astro said they were working on an update but this has been an issue for awhile now. One minor complaint is that only Astro sells the mod kit for this version of the A50 right now and they’re always out of stock. I had to buy the mod kit off Mercari. However, the mod kit is amazing. Overall I like this headset a lot and the aesthetics it has. If you have a big head like me though, the A40 might be more suitable. I have no issues with tightness on that headset.

Quality headset, worth the price. Very durable and has a long battery life

I have these for the Xbox. First these are really great headphones. Better built than previous A50’s and great sound with full wireless. These are the best fully wireless for Xbox ( I believe the Steelseries Arctic Pro is the best but on Xbox you need a wire for chat). So why 3 stars, the firmware available now messes it up. Now as mentioned In other reviews you can plug it straight in and skip the firmware for now but if you are like me one of the best things about Astro’s is being able to adjust the presets. Personally after owning the gen 3 for several years I think the out of box presets are terrible. So the biggest problem is first this is a $300 headset and worth the money but if the firmware messes up your product you should be working night and day to fix it. However after reaching out to them via discord and other routes I have yet to receive a response. I was hoping after Logitech bought them they would improve in CS like they did with build quality but so far no.

Amazing headset with great sound quality and fits my head perfect
