Purchased this and from the first day I noticed the ear muffs missing from the package. the batteries die quick. Makes the controller heavier. The cord ALWAYS gets tangled up very annoying. the design has sharp edging, not fun bumping your knuckles/hand against it. The sound was a little staticky. And 7th just the over all of the headset stunk lol. I would have to say the microphone was the best part. The flexibility of the mic was great. I did buy the upgraded one thats white and it’s connected to the mixer which runs a fiber optic line straight to the back of the Console it’s Dolby surround sound and I have to say it sounds so good and so comfy and no more of the battles dying fast. It’s the A40 amp mix pro.

These headphones are the best for online gaming and they last. Our previous pair lasted 3 years of intense usage

I love this headset! Great sound, 3 different sound settings, comfortable to wear for hours. Plugs right in to the bottom of your Xbox controller. If you can handle a cord from your headset to your controller, this is your headset. Because it sounds really good for not being Dolby.

The sound quality of these headphones are fantastic They feel very comfortable and I felt like the more I wear them the more comfortable they became . Unfortunately the M 80 receiver sometime glitches and does not pick up my microphone thus forcing me to switch over to the 3.5 mm headphone jack . This is an issue I intend on taking up with Astro themselves .

Definitely great choice if you want a headset that can hear footsteps and be durable if you drop them and such. It took almost two years before the left side stopped working and is sad that best buy doesn't keep these in stock.

I've had and used other top brands of headsets but Astro is most definitely the best! I love this headset... they look and feel great even after wearing them for a long gaming session. Easy to setup and maintain, I would recommend them to any hardcore gamer on Xbox or PlayStation!

these headphones have great sound quality and are very comfortable, I had blue a40s before this and the mix amp broke so I had to get these. Compared to the old one, it still has time quality but it cuts out so much more than the older one did. These are good unless you don't wanna run the risk of occasionally unplugging and plugging the headset back in

Picked up my Astro headset when it was on sale. Definitely happy with the purchase. Have had Turtle Beaches before and quality is a lot better compared to Turtle Beaches. Great sound and mix amp helps change voice and gaming volumes which is nice.

I have owned many headsets from Logitech, steel series, seinheiser, turtle beach and more. The astros have been the most comfortable for long gaming sessions and the most clarity I have heard. It has definitely made a difference in my gaming.

Purchase two different turtle beach headsets both were junk. I was really disappointed and decided to go with a different brand, so I picked Astro. Super comfortable and amazing quality sound. Everything you need for a gaming headset
