    Great sound and very comfortable to wear. Games and movies is more enjoyable because you can hear those minute sounds that you normally wouldnt hear through normal television speakers. Although PS4 version says you cannot connect to the Xbox One, I can still use the headphones, its just that you cant chat with it. Otherwise you just need to buy another base for the Xbox One.

    The Astro A50's are the most comfortable gaming headphones I have owned. I have the A40s from 2011 and the improvements made on these make them worth the money. The batter life will last all day even with heavy use. It is easy to place them on the charger to get them to charge, but you have to make sure the connection is established or they will not charge.

    As far as headsets go I haven't found a better one for the price of the A50. Very good sound and loads of room for adjustment with the command center.

    Purchased for my son...it usually works without a hiccup, but then there will be times where he’ll be yelling “can you hear me” repeatedly. While I suspect my son might be a portion of the problem...when I have used them myself, I have found they do occasionally cut out. Not a deal breaker, but pretty expensive for it to be happening.

    Great quality. Only drawback is charging method that you have to leave system in rest mode for them to charge or plug in elsewhere for charging then hook back up to system. We own 3 sets of Astro headsets and they last forever. All other brands end up breaking after a year but our Astro headsets are still going strong several years later. My husband loves his new wireless ones.

    The wireless charging station is great. The headphones are comfortable and the surround sound is amazing. My ONLY complaint is that sometimes when I turn on the headsets they don't connect to my Xbox and I have to turn them off/on, unplug cables, etc. until it finally connects. Overall very happy.

    Oh man, this is the best headset I’ve ever own when it comes to gaming. I’ve had some turtles beaches before, but nothing compares to the sound clarity and quality this puts out. Battery last a while for me. Only reason I gave it 4 stars it’s because It has lost the charge several times when I don’t leave it charging over night!

    This headset is very impressive I think the the price point is a little steep. But if you can catch them on sale definitely worth the investment. Sound quality very good, range is impressive, and the main reason I bought them was the battery life on my turtle beach headset was horrendous. This headset is the very impressive when it comes to the battery life.

    I love the quality, much better than my Astro 40s, I just wished there was a button for turning off my mic instead of pushing the mic up.

    The quality of both the sound and voice quality and microphone quality are excellent. The only issue I have noticed and many other online reviews showed after I ran across it, occasionally you won’t get any sound and/or microphone connectivity. The only resolution is to swap USB ports. It’s only occurred 1 or 2 times but seems to be a common problem

    Amazing headset. This is the new Generation 3 model of the Astro A50 PS4/PC headset and is definitely an improvement over the previous Gen 2 imo. Make sure that if you're buying in-store that you get THIS version and not the older one (older one comes with a stand and must plug-it in to charge vs this one which has the magnetic dock). Great sound quality and comfort.

    Wow. Great reviews and amazing sound. Will last you a long time and suggest buying the mod kit if you can find it. The ear cups catch on my glasses because of the cloth. The leather ones I’m looking for online. Still great deal for being 299$ sticker and getting them for 179$ was a no brainer especially with the reviews.

    I love this new headset compared to the previous generation. Finally they are fully wireless without the need of a chat cable. The battery life is also improved and I love the color scheme on them. The charging dock is also a great addition and works really well! Also you can make changes on the fly when connecting the dock and headphones to your PC which is pretty sweet!
