Amazing Sound Quality perfect for gaming. Would definitely recommend the quality

The Headset is amazing for competitive Gaming and would be my go to pick

Awesome headset that I use for PC or console gaming!

Love this headset!!! Works great with my pc and xbox

very great sound and helps you hear every detail in the game . Only cons is the optical and usb cable are very cheap and I would recommend buying a longer and better cables

Love it, this is my second pair. I had my first pair for almost 7 years.

The best headset i have ever used. This is second one i bought the first one lasted almost 10 years. It still works just battery isnt as good as it use to be.

One of the best headsets I’ve ever owned. I’ll never switch brands again

I’ll being buying Astros for every headset I’ll ever need.

Great headset. Sound quality is good. Mic isn't to bad either.

These are definitely not worth the money. I have the previous version and I cant say fi they made any changes but I have the gen 3 version so you'd think they could have gotten it right. The sound quality is ok but for $300 dollars it should either be amazing or at least have sound cancelling. Now my headset cuts out constantly, but since I have no control over the wireless channel or any troubleshooting tools at all they are basically worthless now. The cradle is pretty poor too. getting them to connect is a pain and one of my kids broke one of the charging pins off because he couldn't get it to connect. I will never buy another Astro Headset again.

Work fantastic, super comfortable, would buy again!

I will never own another Astro again after my last 2 experiences. I primarily used the A40’s as my go to and it was amazing. Then the newest gen came out and required multiple firmware updates just to use on my xbox. I get all the apps and such on my pc to do it and couldn’t get the updates. Talked to support and the response was “oh well”. Returned the A40 for the A50 and i absolutely hate it. Sound quality isn’t great, mic quality wasn’t great either. For it being wireless I kinda expected that, but that fact it constantly disconnects, sometimes back to back after turning it off then on, other times it’ll go for a few minutes then disconnect again. When I bought it, it was around $300. For that price I had expected something to at the very least stay connected for more than 20min.

The headset quality and audio is amazing but one thing people are leaving out is that the headset will stop working and connecting to the new Xbox series X you have to go into the headset and take off an update to make it work with the series X and even then it won’t work 100% of the time I’d recommend going with a different headset. Only because this headset does not consistently connect to the Xbox. I was only able to get it connected to the Xbox two times. 

Very good quality headset overall pretty happy so far.

Had these since 2020, always had issue with these. Really annoying to charge at times, doesn’t connect to stand, software sucks, can’t update software, Astros support is useless, overpriced. I never leave reviews but these gave out on me yesterday.

Please, do not buy this hot piece of garbage. For my many years of gaming, I’ve always been a user of cheap $30-50 headsets that get the job done. After running over the cord of my latest cheap headset I finally decided to splurge a little on an expensive $300 headset thinking I’ll never need to get another one. Boy I could not have been more wrong. Words cannot describe the level of disappointment I had when hearing this headset for the first time. It sounds terrible. And to make matters worse, all my friends asked me why my mic “sounds so bad” the first time I talked to them using the Astro a50. To have spent $300 on I mic for it to perform 10 times worse than a mic that costs a fraction is insulting. This mic sucks in every way shape and form. Plus they try to sell you a $15 dollar monthly charge for Dolby Atmos for it to sound better, as if $300 wasn’t enough in the first place. This headset is the worst purchase you can possibly make, please look at anything else and don’t waste your $300 dollars like I did

Great sound. Quality construction. Very loud but clear sound. Great product.

I have had these for 2 years. 1-3 months: Had some on and off (not power) connectivity issues and the included power cable went bad on me. 5 months: Still some mild but constant connectivity issues, but with some fiddling around they eventually pair with the console. 6 months: headband clip will no longer stay engaged. 1 year: Mic will not stay where I want and falls to my chin unless I wedge something between the shell and mic AND if the power cord gets jostled in any way it resets the base, so the micro usb port has likely gone bad. 1.5 years: The metal pins and connectors between base and headset are missing pairing again again. I have to unplug and plug back in every time I start my console up. And here we are. 2 + years in. Device will not update or connect to the base at all. Will not register on my console, laptop, or charge off the base. Plagued Boot loader errors and pairing errors. There is a whole community of people out here who have these issues. And have no sure fire answers to our problems. Save your hard earned money. They’re great when they work but, you are getting played. I have to go buy a new headset tomorrow…

Headset worked great the first few months; honestly one of the best headsets out there.... when it's working. Unfortunately, that is the issue with these headsets. Eventually, whether sooner or later, they will stop working. It might be a connection issue with the base, or needing to update the headset AND the base, or the fact that you need an extra cable to allow it to charge if you're using them with a ps5; these headphones WILL eventually fail you. If you're a pc gamer, these might actually be a good headset for you. Console players, stay FAR away.
