    This was my first wireless headset for the Xbox One. I wanted something where I could listen to movies, games or music and have top notch sound. I am very pleased with this product. It was very easy to set up and the performance has been outstanding. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.

    Best head set I've ever had. If you are a gamer in the market for the perfect headset, pay the price, and get these! Also, "astro" is an easy company to work with as far as warranty. I had a little trouble with the A40's and the process was simply and took less than a week.

    The price is a bit much but if you are willing to spend the money for quality this headset is the one, it has incredible in-depth sound out of the box, and using the computer program you can make your tweaks even more and make it sound how you want it. Amazing product.

    ASTRO A50

    Astro's are supposed to be the top of the line. To be honest top of the line Turtle Beaches sound better but they aren't built better. These are sturdy, sound good, but the biggest issue is they take forever to fully charge! I'm talking hours! So put them on at night when you are sleeping and they'll be done when you're ready to play again. They will last hours of game play but always charge them when done. For the price, I have to be honest I expected more control with the EQ. You only have 3 settings to choose from. In all it's a fine product, but for the money you can do better.

    The staff recommended these headphones due to the excellent quality even though the price was a little high. They have lasted through much use and had no problems, even useful for making beats although they are really better for gaming. Able to distinguish background sounds and clarity is good.

    I was looking into picking up a premium headset and settled on the new Astro A50 (Gen 3). While the price of entry is a bit steep, the sound quality is amazing. The only knock I have with the headset is the quality of the microphone. It will produce a different sound for your voice when in chat.

    I really enjoy playing with these headset and would recommend any serious gamer to drop the money on these. Sound quality is amazing especially on PVP games where surround sound is important. I was never able to hear the little details that really do make a difference

    I love the charging dock. Its comfortable and has excellent sound quality. However the wireless interferes with the signal of the wireless Xbox One controller. Within a couple hours of using it my controller disconnected 6 times and acted like it reconnected. But there was no button inputs. The only way to fix it was to remove the battery from my controller. Did some research and it's a common problem with this headset. And apparently theres no fix to it. A pretty major problem.

    Excellent build and audio quality. Though if you are in and around alot of wireless devices that transmit signals, you may experience audio cutting out and signal drops from the receiver. Its a bit of a hassel to fix this so just be warned.

    I own the original a50's and the charger/holder is a lot better. The Dolby surround is top notch. The build quality is very good compared to what's out there regarding gaming. I like razer products but these feel better than than all their offerings and they edge out Logitech's in my opinion.

    The Astro A50 are incredible! The sound quality on them are best I have ever heard on a headset before, and the build quality is superb! My only gripe is that the mic quality is not that of a $300 headset, it sounds worse than my Astro A40 that I upgraded from.

    this is my second one (bought one about 2 yrs ago) and was time to upgrade. My only issue with this one is that there is not a way to use it once the battery dies, at least the last gen one I had you could plug it up and charge as you go. Other than that I love my Astros.

    This is ultimately one of the best headset for Xbox. I’m playing Rainbow Six Siege and I can literally hear the opposite team footsteps. It gives me a quick heads up. Great purchase!

    I bought this headset after my turtle beach elite 800x headset died on me. I only had my turtle beach elite 800x for less than 6 months before the right side ear went out. I have had the Astro A50 for about 3 months so far and it’s definitely worth the money.

    These headphones are great. I previously had the A20's and while they were good they did not allow fiber optic pass through. The A50's on the other hand do and they sound much better than the A20 too. I also lile that the earcups are interchangeable.

    I know they have a big price tag. But they are worth it! I love them! They fit nice they last a long time on a charge. I had the wireless mic for the 360 and I miss them and I don't know why Microsoft doesn't make a wireless for the One. This is a good wireless headset for the one!
