Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you dont have a laptop/ desktop to download the app for the headset dont buy this. Battery life is surprisingly great! The cushion from the top of your head will not hold at all, glue it or lose it.

Best sound quality and comfort I’ve experienced with gaming headsets, plus you can actually hear yourself in the headset so you’re not screaming without realizing it. Blows turtle beach out of the water.

Amazing build quality, very soft ear pads, clear audio, good price, customizable. I think the average to pro user would really enjoy them.

The build quality of the head phones is great, however, there’s one specific issue with a big batch of these. There’s either a buzzing noise or a high pitched noise that rings in the left headphone whenever you turn the unit on. Apparently it isn’t in each set of headphones but a majority of them. It may not bother some people but it was unbearable to me. Returned them and then bought the Gen 5, and no issue so far.

I’ve been wanting to get a pair of these babies for a good while now and I’m glad I finally got my hands on them. They are super comfy and the sound is fantastic!

Great wireless headset although it can have some manufacturing issues with the middle head band. Warranty process was simple and they just sent a new one and didn’t require sending the old back so if you have problems, replacing is easy. You can also get a good distance from the base before experiencing connection loss.

I love my a50’s, from the gaming, to the movie, and tv show experience. It has many sound settings, and you can customize through the command center app for even more variation. Using this with my Xbox my mic quality as well as the sound quality is amazing when gaming; but with the different sound modes, movies, tv shows, and even music are all very enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Ive had the original gen 1 Astro A50 for about 5 years. The only reason i bought the new version is because my son wanted one so i figured i would hand down my old and buy the new gen. The new gen has a bit better sound quality and the old version is still functioning as the day i purchased. Best quality headset around. Ive had Razr and Turtle Beach headsets and they dont truly compare to this gold standard.

Got this headset for ps5 anyone want my settings i got some good ones for R6. You have to get use to the audio took me a awhile to understand the direction of footsteps but once i had like 1-2 months of play. you get use to them quick and adjust to ur liking. Good headset bit pricy but worth.

Good quality headphones. Some connection and microphone quality issues but overall they were really solid. They could be a little more comfy at the top part of the headset.

This is a solid headset and once you get the EQ dialed in they sound amazing, but there are still several connectivity issues that need to be resolved via firmware update before I can give 5 stars. When starting up my console I have to unplug and reinsert the USB cord o make sure I get a stable connection. It’s still worth keeping the headset though, I hope they release Ana update soon…

This is my 3rd Astro A50 since about 2015. I love them for the separated game and voice audio and surround sound. This is also the only headset I’ve ever had that didn’t break above the ear cup.

Well it’s good definitely, love the mic , the features it has like Dolby audio , the charging stand , and the good quality. One thing that really brings it down is the low ringing on the left ear piece. I’ve searched it up and it looks like a lot of people are/have experienced the same thing. I still experience it till this day. It still bugs me but I get used to it when I play for a while.

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

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!

Straightforward set up, amazing quality, and exceptional battery life.

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.

Comfortable to wear, volume is great and people I am talking to say they can hear me very clear.

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.

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
