    Astro a50 refurbished headset. They are very comfortable and sound amazing with Dolby Atmos. Adjust the included sound software and the footsteps can be heard in call of duty. I literally couldn’t tell they where refurbished wasn’t a blemish anywhere and was packaged like new.

    They are very good headphones in the accuracy of sound in competitive games so there is more certainty of locating the enemy

    Refurbish scam? Best buy or Astro?

    As I am writing this review I am trying to decide if I want to exchange for a third time, first two are a bust and don't charge even with upgrading the firmware and hard resets etc. It almost as they are using the buyers to upgrade the firmware and stuff for them and weed out the ones that actually don't work by having it sent back to them a second time. Either that, or they could care less about customers or their reputation. If you don't have the time to constantly have them Exhange until you get a good one, I wouldn't buy this product.

    Sadly does not work for Xbox series X. Need to buy extra cable in order to work, but still ended up not even charging on the charging port and ended up needed to be plugged in 24/7.

    Astros were great before Logitech got their hands on it. Horrible firmware updates as of late. A lot of people have started having multiple issues, most of which seem to be the same ones. Went thriugh two of the xbox ones recently myself and both would not even stay on.

    Purchased the Refurbished thinking it should be working perfectly right but i was wrong the only way i could get the actual headset to turn on was by plugging it in directly to a power source for it to turn on

      That sounds like an issue. We'd recommend to get in touch with the Astro Support Team in this case and the team will definitely walk you through all the available options, next steps, and best possible solution.

    My headset is not wireless. Once I remove it from the base station it won't connect. I currently have to reach out to Astros Gaming to see what is the issue. The headset does work if its connected with a wire to the base station.
