These are fantastic headphones with a few issues. They are very comfortable but every once in awhile you get some static but still happy with the purchase and that's just usually part of wireless headphones.

Great directional sound, comfortable. Sometimes headset cuts out, and sometimes docking cradle doesn’t connect to Xbox. Otherwise great headset.

Simply the best quality/durability/sound and ease of use of any headset. Previously had the turtle beach 800’s and these are more comfortable for longer gaming sessions and have better sound. The only gripe is that they comfy/ breathable ear cushions are cloth and let in too much outside noise. That was the only advantage the turtle beaches had. If you want little to no background noise go turtle! If you want deeper bass, and crisp directional sounds go Astro!

Best headset on the market! Great quality, nothing compares to the comfort of the headset. The sound in game is amazing, the battery life is also great. I would buy again.

I was very sad I couldn’t use my studio 3 headphones to chat on my PS4, but that wasn’t an issue once I purchased these. They have such a long battery life while playing and the ability to be wireless is also great, the sound is very good and I also like how you can preload up to three different sound settings to use depending on what type of game or environment you’ll be using. I like the base station also for quick docking to charge them, it can be kinda touchy sometimes recognizing that they are docked and to start charging them but for the most part it does well.

Best Gaming Headphones Ever!

I love these headphones, I had to purchase the extra base for my XBOX One X so they can be used with both and it is as simple as setting the headphones on the base for a few seconds on the system you want it to work with, thats it! When you flip the mic up it mutes it! Charge lasts over 4 hours, I have never played longer than that but it still has plenty of charge left. Sound is superb, I can hear everything and its very easy to fade from game sound to chat sound so you can get the right balance on the fly. I will not game with anything else, this is the best!

Had the previous model and they were awesome other than having the chat cable. The mic does not work as well as the previous. I usually have to unplug the base and plug it back in to get chat to work. Otherwise great sound quality as Astro always provide.

I like the headphones. Great sounds, great quality materials, but doesn't support Bluetooth (like turtle beach). Bluetooth would have been a great addition to those moments you are gaming, and someone calls you. It is a great way not to miss a call.

This Astro headset is amazing. I’m using it on an Xbox One X. There are times where the microphone doesn’t work when turning the console off , the fix is to unplug the power and plug back in. Other than this rare issue , it provides amazing sound quality

I wasn’t sure which headphone set to buy, but i am so pleased that I made this purchase! The sound quality is amazing and I love that it has a charging dock added. Would have loved a mod kit included for the price I paid but that’s the only downfall.

Good solid headset which is very comfortable. Mic is great. I love I can use them with my PC (extra component not included if you don't want to mess with the base). Make sure you play in a quiet room because these do not cancel or muff external sound well, which is why they're comfortable.
Took a little while to figure out how to set up the optical correctly but now work great.
My only complaint is they lack bass if you're watching a movie, but I guess that's not what they're designed for. However, with a newborn, I don't need to run my home theater to wake him up.

The gen 2 I had was good but battery sucked on it. This one is a little better but they took away the fact you can't increase the volume as loud as you want like the last one. Still yet it gets the job done and has about 15 hours play time.

Grant headset. I had an issue with party chat, but it ended up being an XBL problem. Nonetheless, the Astro team reached out to help. It sounds awesome, has great battery life and the support is top notch. I can't say enough about this headset.

I am transitioning to the A50's from the Turtle Beach Elite 800X headset. The first thing I noticed was that the A50's are way more comfortable and a lot easier to adjust for size. The thing I miss the most is the active noise cancelling feature of the 800x's. Another thing is that following the guide and using the recommended sound settings resulted in a very tinny sound. On the Xbox One X, I started using the Windows Sonic option in the sound settings. This produced a much cleaner sound. Overall, these are great for gaming.

Best Headset I've EVER bought!

It is really pricey, I get it... I even contemplated for like an hour in the store if I wanted to "treat myself" to something this expensive. But OMG, SO worth it!! I LOVE IT. I use to buy only Turtle Beach because the old Astros sucked to me. So then Turtle Beach started sucking after the Stealth 500P. I bought the Stealth 700's before this. They're garbage compared to the ASTRO A50's. Astro's have definitely stepped up their game. Turtle Beach can't even compare in durability, sound quality and capabilities.

This head set is build to last! After years of TB headset giving up the ghost , I thought why not try Astro! After researching and reading of all the people who have had Astro head sets for years and still functioning at top level it was time for me to try them out.
Sound is amazing (. Pin point sound in 3D). Great for location source of sound!!!!)
Comfortable
I do think I’m going to buy the upgrade ear muffs and head band soon. It can get a little warm on your head after extended use.

This headset has great sound quality. The Astro command center is a nice feature. Pre made audio setups can be found with a quick use of the google. Price is a little high compared to other headsets in the market but the quality is there. Comfortable enough for long gaming sessions. Works on Xbox Mac or pc. Occasionally have to unplug it for it to be recognized by the Xbox however I had the same issue with every other wireless headset I’ve used.
