I love these headphones. After my 1st Gen Astro A50 died I was looking for a wireless replacement headset that sounded great and worked with the Xbox one. I decided on these headphones and I couldn't be happier. I love the freedom of totally wireless and the great sound these provide. I also like that you can personalize your presets by using the turtle beach audio hub on your home computer. Build quality seems good and the padding is comfortable. Battery life is good and lasts at least 12 hours of continuous use. solid product with no issues so far

I've waited to write my review until I'd spent some time with these and it's been over a month now and I'm really impressed. The sound quality is excellent and having multiple speakers has really helped me up my game with first person shooters. The battery life has been great and the headset voice quality is top notch. If you are willing to shell out the extra cash for these I'd say they are definitely worth it.

I bought this set to replace my Turtle Beach PX5. I was having a lot of issues with popping and signal interference causing my gaming and chat to not be as fun as it should have been.
The very first time that I put the headset on my buddies could immediately hear the difference in chat. It was crystal clear.
The sound quality is excellent. Although, it has multiple sound settings, I was disappointed that Turtle Beach took away the ability to create your own sound mix.

Just upgraded from my Xp400 from my old 360. I love how light and comfortable they are when playing. The sound is amazing especially with all the presets.First person shooter,sports,strategy they all sound amazing. They big plus in my book is there is no longer the adapter to the controller which has extended my controller life. Highly recommend this headset!

I think this is a great product to purchase. I've never own turtle beaches before but the comfort and overall sound quality of these headsets are fantastic. I was also lucky enough to purchase these at a good price here at best buy vs. purchasing straight through turtle beach website where they are running for $229 and I bought these for $150 I believe at best buy. So yes I definitely saved some cash.

Been wanting a true wireless headset forever and this one is pricey but it delivers. The others claim to be wireless but wireless to the console. This one you don't have that annoying wire to the controller and IF you want to get up and walk around and still talk to your friends you don't have to take the controller with you. You can balance the game audio and chat audio very well. Sounds great. Love them

The main plus of this headset is that it is completely wireless. I had a wired headset before, and would often accidentally pull it out of the controller. The sound of this headset is pretty good, but not amazing. It's pretty obvious most of the price is for the wireless aspect, and overall it's worth it.

I use the Sony Gold Wireless headset for my ps4. I was looking for something similar to use with my Xbox one. Did NOT want any word running from my headset to the console nor the controller and that would have some sort of surround sound. THIS WAS IT. Funny story, my gf was playing sunset overdrive with this headset and kept looking the wrong way to find the enemies. She had them on the wrong way!! Moral is, this has great surround sound capabilities...if you have them on right.

These work great but would be better if they where simplified. There are too many buttons on the head set. My 9 year old keeps disconnecting them or hits the mute button by mistake, but these truly are wireless and for that they are worth it

Been looking for a good headset for my x1 that is truly wireless and i finally found it. Was nervous about the wireless part in the quality of the communications, but was very impressed after the first use. Very easy to set up too!

This is by far the best turtle beach they've made. It does everything you need it to do plus more. Its comfortable and completely wireless. It has a built battery pack that last a long time.

Took a little time to get used to the surround sound but they are GREAT. I can hear the enemy coming so it gives me a bit of an advantage. Was not hard to set up & can use them on my XBox and other devices. Well worth the money.

I was surprised with the clarity and sound. It is really load but not distorted. Almost crystal clear details and outside noise free. If you have a loud stereo or family members you can still hear them slightly but for the most part every other noise is canceled and you just hear the game. You have to connect it to a PC though to get the best of it. Out of the box it's not that great. But ones connected to PC you can edit the preset sounds to certain games or functions you want. Trust me you want to change that as soon as possible. It is very limited in the number of actual dedicated game preset it has which was a disappointment for me but overall good headset for the price.

You will need to perform a software update on the headphones and dock. It is a free app you need to download and from there with both devices plugged into your laptop via usb ports the software will auto matically update.
Be warned the digital optical cable may be no good, the one I received in the box did not, I had to use a better one I had on hand. It took me almost two hours to figure this out.
you will also need to re arrange some settings on your xbox one. It is easy to do, just use youtube or the instruction manual to do so.
On the plus side this is wireless, I have not used it for chat yet, but when I am gaming or watching movies late, no one complains about volume.

This is my first set of expensive gaming headsets. I chose these over others because they are wireless and work on my XboxOne without any adapters.
You will have to connect these to a computer to set them up so they aren't exactly plug and play right out of the box. It wasn't difficult to figure out how to set them up and at the same time you choose your custom settings. Be sure you read the instructions, I thought my pair didn't work at first until I corrected all of my setting on the Xbox.
The only reason I don't give 5 stars is the cost. I coughed up the cash to be wireless and don't regret it, but it's still quite a bit of money. I'm sure over time competition will drive the price down.

I was hesitant to plunk down the money for this at first, but now that I took the plunge, I have not regretted it one bit. When Turtle Beach says made for XBOX One, they mean just that. Setup was a snap and using the presets is easy. I did do an update for the receiver and the headset using the Turtle Beach app, but I don't think it was necessary as I had a buddy buy one and didn't do the update. You won't regret the purchase on these.
