Customers are saying

Customers regard the A50 Wireless Headset's sound quality, comfort, and battery life as its strongest features, with many praising the immersive audio experience and long-lasting power. However, some users experienced connection issues and noted the relatively high price point. The wireless functionality was also a plus for many, although a few mentioned limitations in range. While some found the fit comfortable, others commented on the headset's weight.

    This headset is very comfortable and has great sound when it works. However, for me it cut out very frequently. There would be 3-5 second breaks in the sound ranging from 3-50 times per hour. I tested this set with two different playstations (original and Pro) and tried different optical cables and USB cables. I also reviewed Astro Gaming's web site for the proper sound and chat settings on the PS4. However, these audio cut-outs were always there. My much cheaper PS4 Gold headset never has this problem. Reading other sources, it seems this is not an uncommon problem with the Gen 3 A50s on both the PS4 and the Xbox One. I'd recommend waiting for clear evidence whatever is causing many people to have this issue is resolved before purchasing.

    Paid $100 for this headset, and for that price I have no complaints. Would not pay much more than that though.

    Hasn't even been a year yet and a charging pin on the Base has broken off making it only chargeable by USB, and now the sound in the left speaker is distorted and cracking. All this in less then a year being used a few times a week for casual gaming. Sound has been good but durability is in question.
