    Sound quality good when it actually works. $300 for this garbage headset that stops connecting. Turning on and off multiple time and still won’t connect. Im gonna buy another just to return the old set in the new box since you wanna make such garbage.

    Removed useful features for streamers

    Overall it feels like the exact same headset as the prior version. However, they removed extremely useful features for anyone with a 2 pc setup. With this you have to go setup voicemeeter, you remove the use of a good mixer, and overall they made this an expensive headset for the casual gamer, but usually the casual gamer doesn’t go for this pricey of a headset. I’d highly recommend sticking with your prior gen a50s or 40s before going to these new ones.

    My current headset is the older version of this and if I could buy a new exact copy of that one, I would. This headset is not easy to set up. The astro command center needed to get the headset working, is garbage. Outdated and cheaply made. The program wouldnt even recognize the headset no matter all the different troubleshooting steps I tried. There are tons of reviews online with the same issues. I wouldnt recommend this headset to anyone which is very disappointing because I have used Astro A40's and A50's for almost a decade.

    I want to like this headset but its truly just not comfortable. Overall the features are nice but the weight of the headset makes it unbearable for longer gaming sessions. I am trying 3rd party options but have not found much relief. The way the headband is made is not suitable for a headset of this weight. I would've returned this if I would've realized within the return window. If you don't believe me do a quick google search of astro a50 and headband and you'll see many other people.

    Hated this headset. Sound quality was lacking and the volume was way too low even on the highest setting. Maybe I just got a dud, but immediately returned. The headset feels sturdy, but it’s heavy and I felt like it was squeezing my head from the sides. The earcups also felt a little small, but they were well cushioned.

    They are a great headset. They are super easy to use and set up. Connecting a phone is super easy too. I wish the Bluetooth had a little better range, but i am still able to walk several rooms away with it still working. The headset sounds great, and people have told me my mic sound extremely clear. The battery life is also great. Ive had times where ive used them continuously for about 6 hours straight and only gone down to maybe 75% battery. Overall id definitely recommend these to friends and family.

    Genuinely one of the worst headsets you could possibly get. No one offers support not best buy not, Logitech the only way to solve any issues you’re having is to look it up on Reddit. bought a pair of these and have had them for not even a month at this point yet the base station is dysfunctional already? Might as well spend $300 on something useful.
