    This is by far the best headset I’ve ever had and the fact that it came with Dolby atoms is icing on the cake. The levels of sound that you can fully hear from all angles is crazy. The build quality is great and they are light. You can game for hours and not have any problems with them feeling heavy.

    A premium headset and mic! I use for live streams on both my XBOX One and my PC. Great set up and comfortable to wear. All the included controls allow me to set the headset to what I want to hear and project. Included Dolby Atmos code. For any doubters or those questioning it... Atmos makes a HUGE difference!

    Great great sound. Dolby Atmos makes all games sound amazing. Great in FPS, can hear all the footsteps and gun sounds for surrounding enemies. Good bass for the value. Best thing is this is very very comfortable. I can wear for hours and barely feel it in head.

    This is an amazing headset. It's truly wireless, has a great battery life, is light weight, great sound with the free Dolby code, and all at a great price compared to other headsets. Easiest setup as well. Just plug in the dongle to the Xbox and it connects automatically. Couldn't be happier with this headset!

    I bough these headphones because the mic of my older headphones broke so I decided to go wireless. At first I had doubts (because there were some mixed reviews) but I decided to buy them and I love them! The sound is great, the battery is great and they’re comfortable.

    These headphones are the most comfortable set I've ever worn. They don't put pressure on the ears and the design eases the pressure on the top of the head by a lot as well. The sound quality is good. My only issue is the system it has for balancing game and chat volume. There's two separate dials, one is all volume and the other is a balancer between game and chat. But I play with adults at night so they're talking quietly and I have to turn the dial for chat balancing almost to the point where there's no game volume in order to hear what they're saying. If one dial was game volume and the other one was chat volume I would be able to adjust it easier and hear everything better. This headset would be perfect for loud people with loud friends.

    First off, the Headset is ridiculously easy to set up. Its basically charge, then plug, and play. SO set up was a breeze. The headset comes with Dolby Atmos card that needs to be redeemed. Im on the Xbox so this was also easy. After that, go to the set up in the Xbox, and check the Dolby ATmos box on headphones. Done. Headphones are comfortable, and light. In the Dolby access app there are test short videos set up to show off Dolby access. They range form a forest, to a snowy mountain, to a journey a leaf takes. All of them sound great on this headset unless there is something with deep base. Lighting crashing, does not sound good. Deep, Deep base in a song, does not sound great. If I could improve the headset, the base would be my only improvement. Everything else seems fine.

    These headphones are good. I was lucky in getting them on sale for $99 as opposed to the normal $139 (I believe). They are comfortable. I have Turtle Beach headphones for my PS4 and they are OK, but not as comfortable. Now, for the sound. These are well-designed. They are engineered for Dolby sound. Games and movies produced with Dolby will take advantage of what these headphones can do. Even more, the headphones come with a code that you enter on Xbox Live for the Dolby Atmos. Games that use Dolby Atmos sound even better. You can here 3D sound via the headphones. Setup is easy, just charge and plug the receiver into your Xbox, turn the power on for the headphones and once the Xbox is on, the headphones will tell you that they are on. There is a voice that talks through the headphones whenever you power on and off. It tells you the headphones charge amount as well.

    I like to say these are far more comfortable then the stealth 600 or 7 hundreds and are very light weight with comparable sound. The price point is a little high for only one type of connection but otherwise very much worth the value.

    Have owned Astros and a few other headsets and this one is hands down the best! Easy to setup, comfortable to wear and great sound with the included Atmos code! Great bang for the buck! Only downside is appearance but you are not wearing these going to the grocery store.

    I got this headset a few months ago and I have to say, this thing is great! the battery life is outstanding I can usually go a couple weeks with a single charge and I usually play a few hours a night and it always keeps charge. I really like how you can click the power switch and it will tell you the level of the battery left. The overall sound quality is unbeatable in my opinion. I had some turtle beach headphones before and they are not even in the same category with the quality of the noise and being able to tell where the sound is coming from not only if it is behind you but if its above or below, its mind blowing. The mic is great as well and when in xbox parties things come through clearly, you will have to mess with the mix for a bit to get it down correctly to how you like it but that is a preference thing and its really easy to get it how you like it. Overall a great product

    I’ve used this headset for about a month now. They are very light and comfortable. The battery life seems good. The surround sound is good and it’s nice that the subscription to dolby Atmos is included. The only downfall to these is the Bass could be more powerful.

    These headsets are nice. Bought them to try and resolve the issue of having Dolby Atmos on at all times with my TB headset. Issue is that if you have Dolby Atmos setup for your TV/HT on your XBOX1 you cant have a headset connected to your xbox at the same time. You have to unplug the headset from the xbox to enable it. Which means you cant charge your headset at the same time. I thought this was an issue with the TBs but the issue still persists with this headset. So if you are buying it for Dolby Atmos this is something to be aware of. I ended up returning them because of this. Other notes: Comfortable and light weight. Good sound quality Comes with Dolby Atmos but really didn't compare to a Home Theater Atmos setup. Did not seem like things were coming from above me. Only a few preset sound modes. None can be programmed

    I purchased this headset after breaking a cheap pair of turtle beaches. This set is far better than the turtle beaches. There comfortable on my head and the sound is great. They were easy to set up and worth what I paid although quite pricey

    I have owned lots of different headset and these are by far my favorite. They are comfortable, sound amazing, and have an incredibly long battery life. Make sure you follow the directions to enable the Dolby Atmos because it makes these things sound amazing!

    So first off I would like too say this headset is SUPER comfortable. Also the sound quality is great. However, I am struggling when it comes to my headset disconnecting and I’m talking in the middle of a game! The sound will be on the mic will be working. Then boom! No more sound and I’m sittings there trying not to die because I can’t hear enemy foot steps approaching. If anything I recommend you buy the protection program. Because I’m regretting I didn’t. I’m not sure if this is a interference issue between the adapter for my headset and then my external hard drive. Either way it gets pretty annoying!

    I tried several gaming headsets, but they each had a problem one way or the other. Finally, I tried these, and they're great: comfortable, good sound, good connection, great battery life.
