Customer Ratings & Reviews

Item is extremely nice, I absolutely love it I know my money went to the right item.A little tight but overall great!

Not as good as I thought it would be at its high price. Would recommend turtle beach gen 2 700 instead. Purchase this so I was able to play with my daughter with my Xbox series X and Playstation 5 (requires a USB Dongle for other system you didn't purchase it for). Also keeps picking up other dongle even though other system is not on.

The entire headset is made from plastic which makes it rather lightweight for its overall size at 318 grams but at the same time doesn’t feel all that cheap. I didn’t notice any significant creaking that most cheaper plastic headsets have. There is some flexibility which is good as this helps with comfort. The earcups don’t swivel but they do move up and down to adjust for head size whether that be small or huge. Clamping force is mild. Ear cushions are breathable and soft. Overall comfort is great. I’d rate it a 9/10. On the right earcup you have all your controls. Going from top to bottom this includes the power button which requires light pressure with a nice feel. If held it will power on or off with a little jingle along with turning on/off the white LED. The profile button feels the same as the power button and will give you a single beep for profile one, two beeps for profile two, and three beeps for profile three. I don’t know what these profiles are because Astro doesn’t let you know. You also cannot connect it to Astro Command Center to adjust anything or look at anything like you could with the previous generation which is disappointing. Perhaps this will become available with a firmware update. Below the profile button is the voice button, then the volume wheel, and then the game button. The voice/game buttons are used to try and balance chat and game. It comes in 12 total steps. The buttons require severe pressure to adjust. You have no idea which step you are on, except for it beeping when you hit min or max. On the A50’s you will hear a beep again when in the middle. I wish they would have added that to these guys. Instead you have to count it out. The volume wheel has distinct steps, is infinite, does not wobble, and feels mildly stiff making it feel great. Overall, I think the controls are simple and intuitive. The USB transmitter is small. About the size of a thumb drive. It is sleek appearing. It has a small button on it which requires a moderate amount of pressure with a crisp click. It has two LED’s. The first LED is blue which means it is on console mode. The second LED is white which means it is on PC mode. When in pairing mode both LED will be on. You switch to console/PC mode by pressing the button and go into pairing mode by holding it. The first transmitter I had was defective and would NOT switch over to PC mode but would work just fine on console mode. That was a bit strange. I reached out to Astro and they sent me a new one which works well. But I’ve had some issues with that as well on the PC side. With it not switching over without going to a different USB slot. I saw another review with the same issue. So, keep an eye out for that. I found the sound, especially for this price point, to be fantastic. I would say it’s just as good as my A50’s and also compares very closely with my much more expensive headphones/earphones that cost considerably more which is great for these guys and not so great for the competition. It has great mids, highs, and bass. They are all balanced well. It has a more fun excited tone to it which makes you feel more immersed. The sounds are also accurate. Sound stage iis good and allows the directional audio/imaging to be spot on. I can easily tell where people are located in games whether that be single player, multiplayer or with music with instruments and voices. You can also hear when a lot of things are going on at the same time and pick apart the individual parts. Few headsets can do both gaming (single and multiplayer) along with music well. Especially at this price range. So, I’m genuinely blown away. Audiophile terms for the sound: It has an airy transparent type sound that is very analytical with great balance. The bass hits hard with a nice punch and is accurate. But bass heads won’t think it’s enough but they have it at a spot where it adds to the experience without ruining the other parts of the sound. Mids sound good. Highs are also crisp without being sharp, sibilant, or harsh. I notice a lot of detail with a fun tuning that gets you pumped up. Imaging and directional audio are great. Sounds are natural with a medium sized soundstage. I did not notice any bloat, congestion. I’m actually extremely impressed with this headset. As you get almost all of the features of the more expensive headsets such as the A50 except for the base station, as flexible of a headset, and the ability to use Astro Command Center. It comes in at a very attractive price for the amount of tech you get out of it. Sporting 2.4 GHz low latency audio that performs brilliantly and goes up to 50 feet, a 15 hour battery life, USB C charging, chat/voice balance, auto turn off after 10 minutes, side tone, different presets, flip to mute microphone, sounds great for its price range, and is very comfortable. You can also buy another transmitter and make it work on both consoles without buying a new headset. Outside of the transmitter being defective for me and the usual defects that plague Astro of connection issues, difficulty getting the microphone to work, the microphone breaking, and getting competent in adjusting voice/chat balance and you’ve got yourself a real winner. You may want to consider a protection plan. Just simply because Astro Support leaves a lot to be desired and not having to deal with them will help with your sanity. The reason I didn't give it five stars was the defective transmitter. And overall issues I had with the transmitter getting to work with my PC even with the working one. It wasn't as plug and play as I wanted it to be.

The voice/game switch doesn’t work how it’s supposed to. It’s basically just the up/down volume switch. So you have to adjust the volume in the actual game settings so it doesn’t overpower the party chat. I lowkey might return it lol

This is a great wireless gaming headset. It’s comfortable, sounds fantastic, has some nice features, and is easy to move between gaming hardware. Battery has no problem lasting for some extended gaming sessions, and when you do need to charge it, it’s great that it uses a USB C cable to charge it quickly. Getting the headset connected to my PC and Xbox is a breeze; just connect the included USB adapter and it connects on its own. We’ve easily moved the headset between our PC and Xbox by just moving that adapter back and forth. Sound quality is great on these. The included EQ button is nice and lets you switch to a sound profile that you like for your media/games. You can easily hear details in games and it allows you to pinpoint where some sounds are coming from. The flip up to mute mic is great. I love that I don’t have to hit a key on my keyboard, I just flip the mic up and mute myself. Lastly, comfort on this headset is awesome. Again, in extended gaming sessions, I’ve felt no discomfort on my ears or the top of my head. The cushions are comfortable and the padding on the band alleviates any pressure on the top of your head. I also love not having any cables to fuss with. Getting up really quickly to get a drink, or take care of something, doesn’t require me to pull off the headset and the range on these is good enough that I can walk into another room and still hear what is happening in the game. These are an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a quality wireless gaming headset. They tick all the boxes; comfortable, great sound quality, great build, and excellent battery life. The fact that you can easily switch back and forth between your PC and Xbox with little effort is just a big plus.

First opinion out of the box, the headset is big, but lightweight and feels very sturdy. All the materials feel pretty premium for its price point. The plastics used feel strong, the headband flexes without making any cracking noises. The headband has a soft comfortable rubber/silicon feeling material that rests on your head. The ear pads are very soft and comfortable as well. I have a large head and these for me very good. They are adjustable and even fit my 7 year old nephew nicely. The mic boom is also made of flexible yet sturdy plastic and mutes when you move it back into the “up” position. My friends said my voice came through loud and crisp in party chat. The handband has a notch in it so that you can place them over your tv/monitor or any headphone stand when you’re not using it. I thought that was a pretty neat design. The build quality and design of this headset is its strong point. Where I feel this headset is lacking is its sound quality. Don’t get me wrong, they sound good, especially in its bass / low end. Most headsets at this price point have very artificial sounding bass. Gunshots and explosions sound good with this headset. Where I feel the sound quality is lacking is in the rest of the audio spectrum. Some frequencies get drowned out in game. When playing Resident Evil, zombies and them scary demon dogs kept sneaking up on me because I couldn’t hear them coming lol. I wouldn’t recommend this headset for very competitive gamers who want an advantage in shooters. Battery life is excellent and I love that it charges with a USB C cable. It’s today’s standard and every device made in 2020 and beyond should have it. Thank you Astro for including it. They are very comfortable for long gaming sessions and I think most people will find them pleasant and comfortable as well. Pairing is very simple, turn on the headset and then plug in the transmitter into the USB port. It worked seamlessly with both my Xbox One X and my gaming laptop. At the end of the day, I think this headset is a great value and worth the money. It’s excellent build quality and comfortable design and wireless compatibility make it worth your money. I think most people will be pleased with its comfort and sound quality. Perhaps with some tweaking in sound settings you’ll be able to find a good balance. I just wouldn’t recommend it to audiophiles or very competitive gamers.

With the impending next generation of gaming looming around the corner ready to usher in a new era, Astro aims to secure your hard earned cash with it's new gaming headsets. Featuring the all new A20 wireless gen 2's, it's clear no punches are being pulled as Astro sets the bar for the next generation of audio technology. During my time with this product, (playstation, PC version), I was immediately impressed by the familiar yet updated and surprisingly lightweight design. The headset fits firmly and comfortably around my head, even with glasses. I had no issues with long term fatigue or warmer temperatures typically found with other headsets. Out of the gate, setup was easy and straight forward when connecting to my ps4. Turn it on, plug in the receiver, pair and done. Wires are so last-gen and the connectivity distance is very reasonable. Battery life is equally as impressive with an estimated 15 hours, that's easily a week's worth of gaming for me with no charge. I was also pleased to have 3 preset EQ settings that adapted to the type of game I was playing. In terms of audio, Astro knocked it out of the park. Over 5 hours in and I'm still awestruck by the level of detail showcased in the 40 mm speakers. Surround sound takes the stage and you will not be disappointed. From fast paced high octane fps gameplay, where every footstep counts, to the sound of your engine switching gears as you round a corner in a race, to the field where crowds roar and the impact of your tackle trembles on screen. This headset truly transcends you into the game world, with sound you can feel. Mic quality is top notch with others able to hear me clearly with no popping or static noise. Immersion is fully realized here and if your looking for your next headset to jump in and game with your best mates, I highly recommend the A20 gen 2's.

The Astro A20 Gen 2 is comfortable and the sound quality is very good for gaming on Xbox and PC. Wireless connection is stable and the battery lasts long enough for long sessions. The microphone works fine, though it could be clearer at times, and the volume doesn’t get as loud as I expected. Overall, a solid choice if you want a reliable wireless headset.

Comfortable ear cups, no hiss, just the clear audio you expect from a quality head phone. The stereo sound is realistic as is the bass. The USB transmitter worked great, allowing me to roam throughout the room. I tried it during my web meetings and voice over for my Captivate training slides. I like that I can flip the microphone up to mute. One strange things, the USB isn't seen though it turned on via my FireWire docking station. Have to plug right into the laptop. Real depth from the stereo loudspeaker in the headset. Comfortable and adjustable. The transmitter works on both the PC and the Xbox. Nice touch using green in the headband and the LED turns green on the transmitter when using the Xbox. Lightweight and didn't pinch my larger skull even after an hour or so of use. Battery rated for all day use. Rechargeable! If you aren't receiving any sound the headset turns off automatically. Perfect when you take it off and forget to shut off the unit. Auto-off. My headset packaging is cool too. The graphics inside is a real work of art. The took the time there as well. The thermoplastic tray it ships in is a good place to keep it when not in use. Or recycle, as it in black and marked. Descent for a mid priced unit. The microphone sound quality is great. Picked up the tick of my clock from the other room when I was playing back sound recordings. Pretty sensitive.

if you enjoy gaming, you prob already heard about astro gaming, when it comes to headset, you can’t go wrong with astro, for me they are one of the best and I haven’t been disappointed! Pros - the comfort of Astro A20 gen 2 was just right for me, it feels perfect snug on my head if that make any sense - the design and price you pay I think it’s perfect for budget wireless headphones, it’s sleek doesn’t have the same spiral wiring like the A40/A50 has but these are one of the design that separates them from the high head Astro. - the Gen 2 Astro A20 have a USB dongle size receiver, you won’t have to worry about a separate receiver box and optic cord compare to the first series - such an easy setup by plug it on you xbox, or pc by transferring the receiver - the ability to plug the usb receiver on the front of the xbox was huge plus for me that I don’t have to move the xbox and plug it on the back for optic cord - Astro audio are always been great it’s clean and you get a good balance of bass and tremble. plus adding Dolby Atmos for Xbox and PC gives you an amazing 3D audio support - comes with the same 2.4Ghz range of signal like their most expensive headphones - if you want to use the xbox headset on your ps4 all you have to do is order another usb receiver and that’s it, pair it and you’re good to go! - to mute your mic just flip the microphone upward and that’s it! - you have ability to adjust the game and chat audio through the headphones Cons - don’t be disappointed that you cannot change the ear covers like the high end astro headphones - also you won’t be able to rotate the ear cover to place your headphone flat on your table if you have a PC don’t forget to check for latest firmware update for your astro , I love using A20 such a comfortable headphone that doesn’t bother me after a long period of time plying Warzone on PC and xbox, also been playing Doom Eternal on xbox with A20 and it sounded amazing hearing all tiny little audio details. highly recommend this headphone as a gift for coming holiday, you will not be disappointed!

Total garbage. Lack of Bluetooth capability. Returned due to a defective product. Ended up getting a Corsair HS55 with Bluetooth for $20 less, better built, and with Bluetooth.

So far using these headsets for my PS4 and PC have proven to me that in the price range (mid tier), these perform all-around exceptionally well. Pairing is different from PS4 vs PC. Plugging in the dongle for the PS4 and pairing the for the 1st time is quick, easy and painless. After that, once you turn off, sleep or charge, it pairs 100% every time without a hitch. PC on the other hand is pressing the pair button on the USB dongle and holding the pair button on the head set it self (roughly 4-5 secs) every time you reboot/restart. Sound is great for the PC as you can use an equalizer to adjust to your liking. PS4 you're stuck with presets (and to me they ALL sound the same) so I left it on ASTRO. Bass isn't overpowering, highs are highs and lows are lows. Playing some FPS's like CoD, BF, Apex Legends, etc and all sound really good. Muting the mic takes some getting used to. Especially if you're doing FPS. You literally have to move the mic all the way up to mute and bring it back down for "always" on. Gets kind of annoying after a while vs other brands that just have a mute button. But that is the reason they are wireless I guess. The feel and comfort to me is really good. Unlike other brands, Astro choose the "cloth" cushion instead of the leathery feel most other use. I am quite surprise at the comfort from that. Gaming for about 4 hours (from a full charge) and my ear area was just a little warm. Not hot or sweaty at all. This also makes is feel like a premium headset but not really. It is mainly plastic and lightweight but still feels solid and well built. Color is nice as they are future proofing (?) lol to match the PS5. As for the battery life, I have playing roughly 12-13 hours total on a single charge and it has yet to die. I am super happy that it is a USB-C port too. I also want to point out the mic sound quality (according to my teammates) was good. I had only 1 complaint when my teammates were telling me I sounded like a robot drowning underwater. But I unplugged the headset and repaired and boom, worked like a champ. Every other time I had no complaints from anyone. All heard me loud and clear.

The Astro A20 wireless headset is a great entry level budget headset. Even though it brings just the basics, at the end of the day the basics is sometimes all you need. Hopefully this review will help to determine if this is right for you. First off lets talk about what you can expect to receive right out of the box. A headset and USB-C drive, that's it. Sounds too simplistic to be any good right? Well let me start by saying as a owner of the A50 series the A20 is pretty robust and well built. Yes the frame is a plastic frame but that doesn't mean its not sturdy or uncomfortable for that matter. As a matter of fact the first thing i noticed while trying this headset on was just how comfortable it actually was. So im one of those guys that has trouble finding a good headset i can game with for hours without it giving me headaches due to un-mitigated pressure points. I found that after gaming for about 3 hours i had forgotten they were on my head and also felt no specific pressure points due to a poor build. This was nice and at the same time disappointing due to the fact that my more expensive headsets struggle to accomplish this level of comfort. Now set up for the ps4 and pc was really basic which was a breath of fresh air. For my PC set up it was simply plug in the wireless connector to your usb port and bam your done. No apps to download, no lengthy instructions to read, just simply plug and play. On the headset you will find your mic on the left side of your headset. The mic is a flip up/down design which im a fan of. Simply flip the mic down to turn it on and talk and flip it up to mute. This design makes it easier to remember rather or not your mic is on which can save you an embarrassing moment online by not realizing that it is on. To the right you will find your power button, sound button and dial that raises game or chat volume based on which way you spin it. Voice chat quality is superb where as in game sound quality is average. Average is ok as you can still make everything out and sounds are nice, crisp, and clean. While the quality can seem a little bland at times you can still make out which direction certain sounds are coming from. But hey you need to understand that you will not get studio quality at this price point. Fully charging the headset took about a hour and a full charged headset yielded me roughly about 16 hours of gameplay which isn't half bad. Not the greatest battery life but far from being bad. Now don't expect a whole lot of customization on this headset like you can find on the other Astro units. The earcups do not detach like the magnetic held ones and i may be wrong but changing the exoskeleton is very limited in design. Overall guys this is a great headset at this price point and probably one the best you can find in my opinion. When it comes to gaming i personally feel you only need 3 things to be happy. A headset that is comfortable, provides good voice quality with decent sounds, and good battery life. Everything else past that is just bells and whistles you wish to add on. Most cheap headsets i have tested definitely prove the point of "you get what you pay for." However i never once felt that way with this headset. While the design may feel flimsy and cheap its actually very durable and can withstand falling off a computer desk multiple times without breaking. Sound quality isn't great but its not horrible either. And lastly the comfort level is what made me really fall in love with this unit. Most cheap headsets won't last a hour before i start to become uncomfortable and feel the need to take them off. So should you buy them? Well that depends. If your looking for a budget friendly headset that can keep up with the best of them, than ya this is almost a sure fire bet. Now if you have all this disposable income and your looking for the cream of the crop then it's obliviously not the headset for you. pros: -hours upon hours of comfort -Solid battery life -fast charge times cons: -Average sound quality -Lack of a charging dock or stand

I purchased this product back in 2023, and I have never been more happy with a purchase! This headset's battery life is RIDICULOUS! I go sometimes a full week before charging it. I believe it advertises 17 hours, something like that. I've used it for longer I can promise you that, even after almost 2 years of owning it. It's light weight on my head, it's never once had connection issues, and the audio is so good! There are multiple different settings to adjust just on the headset, along with the many different options on the PS5 itself! Fully recommend this product to anyone!! (I was able to use it on my PC, but I had to play with the settings a bit for it to work, but once connected, it works the same as PS5)

The Astro A20 Wireless Gaming Headset (Gen 2) is a nice mid tier gaming headset. Pros: * Aesthetics - A nice looking headset with a modern white and blue color combination. * Comfort - The headset is lightweight and flexible with cloth ear cups. I prefer cloth ear cups compared to leather ear cups as my ears do not get as hot during long gaming sessions. I have worn this headset for around 4 hours of continuous gaming without experiencing any headset fatigue. * Wireless performance/range - The headset connects to a PC, PlayStation, or Mac with a USB dongle. I tested it using a PC; although, I am looking forward to using it with the PS5 when it comes out. It claims a range of 50 feet which is believable. I have not had any issues with it cutting out even when walking into a different room. * Audio quality - The audio quality is respectable and immersive. I predominantly play FPS games and had no problem determining enemy player movement/location. I have not experienced any crackling or distortion with highs, mids, or bass. * Battery life - I charged the headset to full prior to using it with the provided USB-C charging cable. I am nearing 12 hours of use and still have not needed to charge it. I appreciate the long charging cable as this is often an oversight I have seen with other competitors. Cons: * Mic - Having used a large variety of headsets from budget to top tier, the mic on this headset is pretty disappointing. While the speech is understandable, the sound is muffled. Hopefully, this can be remedied with a firmware patch or addressed in future generations of this headset. A solid mic could take this headset to the next level. * Build material - The headset is made out of plastic. Other headsets within the mid tier price point often have at least partial aluminum construction and will be more durable. Overall, the Astro A20 Wireless Gaming Headset (Gen 2) is a great plug and play option for PC, PlayStation, or Mac.

The Astro A20 Wireless Gen 2 Headset for PC and Xbox is a midrange headset from Astro. In the box you have the headset, USB dongle transmitter, manual and USB-A to USB-C cord for charging (see pictures). I opened it all up and charged the headset. It took almost 90 minutes to fully charge the headset out of the box. Now I was ready for the rated 15 hours of use without another charge. My first use of the headset was to connect to my laptop and use for conference calls for work. People could hear me very well. And I could hear them perfectly. I did find I needed to re-pair the headset each day which was a minor inconvenience. I found the headset to be VERY comfortable and wore them pretty much all day for a total of about 10 hours. There is a minor adjustment (see picture) where you can adjust the earpieces up or down. I did adjust them a little. When you swing the microphone up, it mutes the microphone. Swing it back down and the microphone is active. This was an awesome feature for conference calls! It was also nice to walk around while on the calls. I was able to be about 40 feet away and still keep the connection. Even on a different floor. The 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity is AWESOME! I received this in time for the Call of Duty Cold War Beta release. First person shooter games are a good test for gaming headphones as speaking with your teammates and hearing where your opponents are is critical to being successful. It is often hard to get a balanced sound that works for you between game noises and teammate voices. All of the controls are on the right headset. The top button is for power. The next lowest button is for the EQ with 3 settings. Near the bottom is a button for game or voice and a scroll wheel for volume. This is the best feature ever! Press the button for game sounds and adjust the volume up or down. Press the button for voice and use the scroll wheel to adjust the volume. A simple mechanical adjustment on the headset to fine tune game and voice volume. I have used the headset for about 14 hours and have not needed to charge them yet. They are rated for 15 hours so they should need a charge soon. Overall I give these 5 out of 5 stars and recommend them. They are a great midrange gaming headset that has great sound. It is very comfortable. The wireless connectivity worked perfectly. Also, you can get a PlayStation dongle and use the headset on Xbox, PlayStation and PC. Of course this is only for Xbox and PC. They are also supposed to be compatible with the new Xbox coming out.

Alright my opinion on the Astro A20 Wireless Gen 2 headset is a solid pick if you want freedom from wires without sacrificing sound quality. It rocks clear, balanced audio with that signature Astro punch, perfect for hearing every footstep or callout in your game. The wireless connection is super stable with low latency, so no annoying delays messing with your flow. Plus, the comfy ear cushions and adjustable headband mean you can wear it for hours without feeling it. Battery life is solid too, and I haven’t seen any battery degradation at all, which is pretty dope. On top of that, it supports surround sound for that next-level immersive experience. Clean design, reliable performance this headset’s got your back.

--- SETUP --- The setup for the Astros A20 was quick. In the package you can see a USB-C cable, the headsets, and 1 USB dongle transmitter. The transmitter goes plugged into your Xbox or PC and after a quick automatic installation of the software, the transmitter recognizes the headset. --- FEATURES --- The key feature of these Astros is that they are forward compatible with the Xbox Series X/S and, if you purchase a separate dongle, you can use them with a PS5 as well. This Xbox specific headset works with the current gen Xbox One/S. --- PERFORMANCE --- The performance for the stereo headsets was ok compared to others that I’ve used. I tested this headset with DOOM Eternal on Xbox One X and Hades on PC. For games like Hades, I had a great time listening to the voices of the characters with crisp, clear sounds. That game isn’t too intensive when it comes to audio, so it was perfect for that type of game. For DOOM Eternal, a game with lots of heavy bass music and crunchy sounds, I found it lacking in the audio department. However, Xbox has a one-time payment audio feature called Dolby Atmos that turns stereo headsets like this one into a surround sound experience. With that feature on, it was a great improvement. This review doesn’t take in consideration the Dolby Atmos add on, but it’s worth mentioning in case you want to get more out of the headset. --- EXPECTATIONS --- The product has its limitations. However, being a multi console owner, these headsets might redeem themselves once I can get my hands on a PS5 and Xbox Series X as the convenience of not having to switch headsets or transmitters could potentially outweigh the downfalls. Otherwise, the headset itself is light on the head and I found it comfortable for a person who wears glasses. --- VALUE --- The price for the Astros A20s in terms of value is ok for an introductory headset but having to buy only one for two consoles is definitely going to save you money. --- APPROVAL --- I highly recommend this product for people who are new to the gaming headset space and want an easy entry. Additionally, I recommend these headsets for future multi-console / PC owners.

Great headset, its very comfy, even to me that I wear glasses. I played with them for about a couple of hours and they didn't give me any pain The construction seem very solid and it has several level of adjustments for different head sizes/shapes. The microphone is decent and my friends told me sounded natural, and its a flip up mic, so if you flip it up, it mutes your voice. It can work with either a PS4 or a PC. I tried it on a PC. It was easy to plug in the USB receiver and then turn on the headset, pairing was automatic. One thing that took me a while to figure out, is the little button on the USB receiver, if you press it once, lights up WHITE, that is the PC mode, if you press it another time, it lights up BLUE, that's the PS4 mode, if you don't do that, the PC won't output sound. The included manual is very basic and didn't mention anything of these, its just a bunch of pictures and no directions, should be better. Other than that, the sound was great, very warm and with decent enough base. It does not have any surround effects included, it depends on you buying either dolby atmos or dts sound from the windows store for surround sound, which are excellent and cheap too. Battery life has been good, one full charge has lasted me about 3 days of 2 hours sessions each. I hope these are compatible with the new PS5 console, but I guess that's on Sony, not Astro. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a simple wireless solution without cumbersome base stations and what not, with great sound!

The Astro A20 for Xbox will be the first pair of Astros that I've ever owned, so naturally I was excited to give them a try. Overall I'm really impressed with the build quality, comfort and sound that these produce and there's really only one con to speak about, which ends up also being a pro for the unit. Overall the build quality is on par with other headsets in this price range. You have mostly reinforced plastic construction, with nice soft fabric ear pads and a rubber like headband. The headset itself puts a little pressure on my upper jaw and I have to extend the headset to the biggest size possible, but I also have a monster head. Normal sized heads will do just fine and will find that this headset is plenty big for them. Sound quality is fantastic, both input and output. Mic conversations come in crystal clear and the audio has a crisp mids and deep lows, leaving a little to be desired on the highs, but it's not terrible. Overall the sound is great and I think most people will get exactly what they expect out of these for the price paid. Now to the wireless transmitter, or dongle. This dongle is huge compared to other's that I've used in the past. It's going to stick out of a USB port pretty far, so you're going to want to stick this bad boy on the back of your console if possible to avoid breaking it accidentally. Also, a lot of Xbox headsets are using the native Xbox wireless audio and no longer need a wireless transmitter to function. However, this is both a pro and con because you can use this headset on a PC because of this wireless transmitter. The only other nitpick I'll bother writing about is the fact that there doesn't seem to be a mic monitor/side-tone feature on this headset and it's not detected by the Astro Command Center yet either. I'm not sure if this will be a function that will be available later on down the line through a firmware update, but I sure hope so as I'm very used to being able to adjust the side-tone on my headsets. Pros: Comfortable Good build quality Solid audio performance Great mic with flip up to mute USB-C Charging Xbox and PC compatible wireless transmitter Cons: Large wireless transmitter No side-tone/mic monitor adjustment Astro Command Center doesn't recognize this headset yet
