under rated headset
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Owned this since May, worked with xbox one x with no issues. Moved to series x, no firmware update needed, works with no issues. Battery life is great. Can adjust the preset eq with the dolby atmos app. Most comfortable headset I've owned. Tried the arctis 9x, a40, a50, 700 gen 2, cloud stinger and this is the headset I've gone back to. The a40 is probably the closest but it's wired. Never could get the arctis headband to fit properly when I tried it. I'm surprised this headset gets a bad rap. In this price range, I personally thing it's hard to beat but everyone is different

Overall Good Pair of Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was reluctant in buying these headphones however I brought them to give them a try. I must say the sound quality and, mic, and fit were great. The cushion on the ears is smooth and not abrasive like other headphones in this price range. The headphones are light and very comfortable. The build quality is on par. A little plasticky but like previously stated they are lightweight so it’s understood why plastic was utilized. The main problem I have with the headphones is others around you can hear everything. Also you can hear others talk if you are in a room with other conversation. Therefore no noise cancelling. Bluetooth and Battery life is pretty good as well. I can go a couple days without charging. No crackling noise as experienced with other Bluetooth headsets of same price range or lesser.

Good value but better exists.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headset has it's place. My favorite part was the battery life. I've never had a headset that actually lasted me a full two days of non stop play. Setup is very simple for PC or xbox. The headset is also very comfortable for extended use. The adjustability isnt extensive but enough to make it comfortable. My biggest issue was the sound. The included Dolby atmos code is great but the headset doesn't take full advantage. The speakers are ok for general use, but when the volume gets loud the speakers lose clarity. The thing I noticed the most was the lack of bass. Moderately bass heavy sound or music would be distorted. Overall I would consider buying this headset again even with the lack of bass.

A Sound Investment
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first Plantronics Headset, and I must say that I am very pleased. I have been using TB headsets for some time and have had a fairly good experience with the ones I have owned, but the RIG 800s have been a pleasant surprise. The fit is very adjustable and they are much more comfortable during long gaming sessions. They feel very light on your head. I have fairly good size ears and the ear cups are large enough to accommodate them. The battery life is awesome and as advertised. The sound quality is good and people I am gaming with say the mic sound is very good too. I’m sold. For the money, this headset is excellent.

Great Headset, very confortable.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great with XBOX gaming, and easy to use. Plug & Play, battery lasts for long hours of gaming, the mic is clear, the headset does not hurt after many hours of gaming, very comfortable. It was expensive at the time, but to have wireless and great sound, was definitely worth the expense. It also works on the computer by just plugging a USB dongle, no extra work needed. The best part, it came with a Dolby Atmos card to redeem on XBOX.

Best Bang for Your Buck Bar None
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This headset is an amazing value. I have a Turtle Beach 500X and an Astro A50. The A50 has always been problematic. Build quality is great on the Astro, but it just doesn't work well with the Xbox and the wired chat cable is annoying. The A50 IS comfy, though, and that's why it used to be my primary gaming set. The TB 500X is a great headset for the money, but the ear cups are too small, the audio imaging lacks "beauty" and the construction feels cheap. Enter the Rig 800 LX. It brings the comfort of the A50 (and it's lighter!), better imaging and audio than either aforementioned headset, fully wireless chat functionality with Xbox One, and it's cheaper than BOTH of the previous sets I mentioned. The Dolby Atmos for headphones certificate is icing on the cake. I can't rate this headset high enough. Even if it was $200 I'd pick it up.

Best gaming set/Best wireless headset
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I started to hardcore computer gaming back on 2012, and was a huge fan on Logitech G930- 7.1 surround headset, ( we all know the battery issue with his headset after 3 moths.) After going thru 3 set on a matter of 2 years, every 6 moths new pair... I decided to give this headset a try, and....WOW!!! Battery does last as advertise. I am not gentle either with headsets, as I will like to be... but is part of the game... this headset should be more like drop proof, abuse proof etc... their are good and worth every penny... I bought my pair back in Feb 2018 and still strong and it dose hold the full charge to this day 10+hrs gaming and shenanigans

My favorite headset so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All my life I have been solely turtle beach for all my gaming headsets. My most recent one was the elite pro headset. After that one met it’s demise I proceeded to check out the most recent technology in headsets. After seeing these plantronics with Dolby atmos, I decided I would follow my instincts and check them out. I am completely shook at the sound these baby’s put out. With Dolby atmos this headset delivers incredible bass and directionalized sound. The battery life on this headset is ultimately what I am the most impressed with though. I find myself only having to charge them like once a week! They are incredibly light also! The head fatigue just isn’t there like it was with my last turtle beach headset. I’m incredibly happy I jumped ship. I highly recommend this product!!!

Overall great headset!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: Packaged well. Super light & breathable. Really comfortable. Dolby Atmos sounds great. Easy setup and connection. Awesome battery life (writing this now, i can't even remember the last time i charged them lol). Cons: Above 70% volume, speakers begin to distort (super crisp & clear up until then though). They don't block much ambient noise (mesh back on cups). A full charge takes like 3.5hrs. FEEL cheap (due to being lite and plastic) though i haven't had any issues with quality so far. Ultimately, i'm very pleased with this headset as it meets all of my needs 100%. The Dolby atmos is a great addition, and the wireless dongle has strong connection with no connection losses thus far.

Great headset, a little glitch
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are great for my son, he leans more towards having a big head so I was afraid these would be tight but no, he says they stretch pretty good. After a couple of hours of play they don’t hurt, the battery life once fully charged he says lasts him about 5-6 days of about 2-4 hours a day playing. The glitch these specific ones had was that after about 6 months they wouldn’t charge past medium (with a high, medium, low charge) so we just exchanged them for a new pair a bestbuy. Hopefully that glitch was just a weird fluke and the rest aren’t like that. Hope that helps!

One of the best
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the most comfortable headphones that I own for my Xbox one system. I had definitely ones before but after a while my ears would start hurting me. But after using this headphones I never had that problem. The only thing I have found is that from time to time the headphones would disconnect from my Xbox and I have to reconnect it again. One more thing this headphones comes with a app for your system but I cannot give my opinion on it because so far I have never downloaded yet.

Great Headset.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Headset for the price. I went through 2 turtle beach stealth 700s. Both stopped working due to some sort of software issue, after second pair died I made the switch to these, very comfortable, decent sound, Bass is lacking a little, but still good, my voice sounds great in game chat, Dolby atmos is outstanding. Very good battery life, I was genuinely surprised, only thing this headset is missing is noice cancellation, but it’s not to big of a deal. I would recommend these. Use them everyday.

Pro Gamer Quality Headset for $100
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing headset. I pretty much only play Call of Duty and this headset has me hearing people peeking doors in the bottom of the building next to me, or barely stepping in a river on the other side of the crate in Pine (MW Gunfight map). 10/10 would recommend this headset. Great quality audio in-game, chat, and mix, as well as long battery life, great mic (and easy to mute and unmute as it flips up and down which definitely helps with me being forgetful when headsets just have a switch), and it's extra comfy for long gaming sessions.

Perfect price point
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent headset. Love the wireless connectivity, no cords allows me to move freely as needed. The clarity is excellent and I love the quick volume adjustment and voice chat fader located on the headset. I also love the feature that mutes my mic when I flip the mic on the pivot up to a vertical position. Overall this is a great purchased for the price and you won't be disappointed. Only thing I've noticed is if you're using with Xbox one the console has to be set to quick start otherwise the Bluetooth dongle acts up and you have to unplug and replug it into the console to get the headset to connect.

Great wireless Xbox One headset
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have went through several cheap wired headsets for the Xbox One over the past three or four months but I was not satisfied with quality and connection issues I had with plugging them into the controller’s 3.5mm input. I jumped at the chance to purchase the 800LX on sale for $99.99. I’ve been very impressed with the quick connection (it wirelessly connects to small box that plugs into the system’s USB port), the freedom of cords, battery life, and the audio quality. The headset comes with a code for the Dolby Atmos app for the Xbox One, which is normally $14.99 of purchased separately. It is a great headset for the price and I’m very happy with it.

Very comforable
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like these headphones. I had bought a set from another company that stated they would work with Xbox One and sometimes they did but most of the time they didn’t. I was outside the return time frame so I had to eat the cost of those and decided to buy these which I wanted in the first place but didn’t want to spend the money. They are worth every penny. Very comfortable, great sound and connecting them to an Xbox one was extremely easy. I definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a new pair Xbox or PC headphones.

Great overall headset
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At the beginning had some worries about this headset. As any previous wireless headset I had they made my voice sound distance for anyone in the xbox party. However, that is not the case with these nobody even realized I switched to wireless. The headset sits comfortably while wearing it for extended periods of time. The sound quality is awesome. I haven't tested durability but have watched videos of people twisting it all around and it not breaking. The battery life stands true and holds up to 24 hours after a charge.

The best wireless headset you can buy for the Xbox
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 3rd headset in the last 8 years, you can get about 2 to 3 years out of them til they start to develop a static. But overall these are the best wireless headsets for Xbox. They don't require you to plug into the controller, you can actually walk about 50ft from your console before they start to cut out. Dolby Atmos surround and able to adjust the game/chat is awesome. Highly recommend the extended warranty on these as well.

Great for gaming!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just bought these and love them! I was having an issue with the low bass distorting during explosions, but found how to fix. There is a game/chat mixer if you have it more than neutral it adds gain to the game or chat channel which causes the bass to distort if it is too high, just lower this then turn up the volume to fix it. Preset 3 sounds great with Dolby Atmos, they are incredibly comfortable and hold charge for 24 hours of use. I feel like everything is a 10/10 I just wish they had better default control over bass clipping/distorting without having to fine tune them.

Excellent headset. Great sound. Very comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had for nearly a month now. I use it almost everyday with Xbox. Works really well. Battery holds charge for hours. Sound is excellent, and my clanmates can hear me really well. Very comfortable and adjusts to three different positions for small, medium and large heads. I have a very large head (size 8 1/2 in hats) and fits me very well for hours at a time. Very convenient not having to deal with the wires of a wired headset. And the batteries in the Xbox controller last longer now that the controller isn't powering a headset too.
