Customer Ratings & Reviews

They are very comfortable and have a very good sound

I have used several headsets in the past and still own a few that work. This headset is significantly better than the Astro A20. If you were trying to decide between the 2 the a50 is the clear winner. The addition of the Dolby surround makes all the difference. Also these are louder in general.

So far the sound is great, but the mic has some problems. I have read online that if the base station is placed on the left everything is fine because the signal comes from the left ear piece. Astro just put out an update to fix some issues. They do a good job of interacting with people on their forums. So we'll see....

They are ok these have alot of small issues I have issues with game chat and issues with sounding like a robot when i talk

This headset, though it costs a penny was worth the buy. Fantastic sound, easy to use and wireless. The reason for the 4 star rating was simply because the huge docking station and the fact I cant replace the mic after my dogs chewed it up. The A40 you can replace the mic on.

The headset itself is amazing the sound and the control center is very cool for having the right settings the only thing that’s wrong with the headset are the random bugs here and there like turning off by itself or being impaired from the base other than that it’s an nice headset

Very comfortable and extremely high quality audio.

This headset isn't very compatible with the PS4. I'd be in the middle of games and it would cut out 5,10,15 seconds at a time. Save yourself money and by the Astro A40 TR from Best buy. Same great sound of the A50's and I've never had an issue. The Astro A40 TR is the best headset I've owned to date.

This headset is amazing! I love the surround sound and the mic is crystal clear! The only thing I’ve noticed is that occasionally I’ll get some digital sounds mixed in with my audio. This could be due to many factors, but overall this headset is fantastic. I’d buy it again in a heartbeat.

Great wireless headphones. Provides premium sound and clear chat quality. The only issue I have with this product is trying to dock it to charge. It is difficult to dock the item to where it starts charging. Usually takes 3-5 attempts to get it to start charging.

I have gone through so many pairs of other brands of headphones, I finally found a great pair of noise cancelling, easy and clear sounding headphones. I still got the extended warranty just to be safe since.my other brands never lasted longer than 6 months. These are still going strong!

This is one of the best headset Astro has done I own gen 2 but gen 3 is far better and I recommend you buy the mod kit also for everyone asking this Xbox edition works on ps4 also I have tried it and works good t chat don't know why people say it don't work maybe the ps4 to Xbox won't but Xbox edition will work on ps

I purchased these as a gift for my son. It was a little confusing setting them up , but once they were connected the sound quality is unmatched . I had to return the first pair back to the store for frequently turning off and on . I suggest the replacement program . This pair is working seamlessly . Get a pair

These headsets are great; bought a set last year for one grandson and another this year for other grandson

I love Astro's a50s. They still have a great battery life. I bought them back on November 9th, 2016. Haven't had really any trouble. A few times the xbox will say it doesn't recognized the headset. I've just unplugged the power to the headset and plugged it back in. It connects within seconds. 5/5

Absolutely love them and people complain about dropouts, switch you’re router channel to a lower channel and you’ll be fine. Sound quality is crisp and clear, I can hear footsteps further than turtle beach with superhuman. Tested with a buddy, and it’s about 15ft further in the game

The packaging is stellar, which matches the product. I'm really impressed with how loud this headset gets.

As I said the battery life is nice. The 2014 model was awesome but very poor battery. So i upgraded to better battery. But i was going to take them back but missed the 14 window so now I'm stuck with audio cutting in and out. Very loud clicking and popping. I cant even exchange them now

I purchased the A50's to replace my TB XP500's and I've been so happy with them. I use the head set for gaming and team chat only. I haven't looked backed. I paired the Bluetooth to answer my cell phone when needed and it worked well. I just got tired of having my game interrupted, so i unpaired it. :-P
