    I really enjoyed the completely wireless nature of these headphones. I also thought the sound was very clear. The microphone is a little touchy, it doesn't seem to make a good connection at times and at other times it drops out entirely. I also wish these were a little louder, I can routinely play games with them turned all the way up. For this price range, I would expect the sound to be so loud I couldn't play with them all the way up.

    very good wireless headset for the cost. surround sound works very well and it is 100% wireless. purchased A40's 1st and returned them for these, they are half the cost with twice the sound.

    I bought these knowing the 800x coming out, but couldn't wait because of a complaining spouse. First they needed a firmware update out of the box which was a good thing, they sounded terrible, after the update, they sound good, good simulated 7.1 sound, nice Soundstage and 360 degree immersion The bad is the presets aren't great but,as good starting point, it communicates with a confusing series of beeps and tones, though once you figure it out, it's ok.The build quality could be higher and the ear pads get warm Overall a nice headset, maybe should have waited,but happy with them so far

    The sound quality was solid, but not quite as good as my older DX12 headset. In it's defense, it does have more customization options. The straw that broke the camels back for me was the slight audio latency introduced with these being fully wireless. Sound was ever so slightly behind the action, and in a game like Battlefield or Call of Duty that can be the difference between life and death if i'm listening for footsteps or other audio cues as to where the enemy may be.

    All in all, great gaming headphones. There is no problem with the range in my living room. Crisp, clear surround sound and the battery lasts as long as it says. My ears don't hurt after long periods of wearing them like I have experienced with other headphones. As my first pair of wireless headphones for gaming, I am glad I purchased this particular set.

    First time to use this type of headphones. I wish I would have made the switch a long time ago. The sound is amazing, I hear things I never heard before. Chat is great as well.

    These are great sounding headphones for gaming or watching TV/Movies. The only issue I have had is that they will sometimes cut out.

    This is the first set of Turtle Beach headsets that I have purchased so I may not have as great of a frame of reference as some. These headsets have worked excellently so far though. I purchased them based to other reviews comparing the sound quality with other similar choices and these were the best option. They are a bit pricy, but overall worth the money in my opinion. My wife is currently working on some college classes in the evening and it is convenient to have an option for good quality sound for Gaming OR watching television through my Xbox One without distracting her with TV noise.

    The only thing keeping me from giving this headset 5 stars is its comfortability. The sound and different preset options and customization are all awesome. The 7.1 surround sound is extremely immersive. However, the fabric/material for the ear muffs does get uncomfortable after a prolonged play time. I do have large ears so it's very possible that smaller eared folks might have zero problems. I would still definitely recommend this headset. Completely wifi and syncs seamlessly.

    After several other headsets, this is the last one I bought. It has been the best yet. Awesome sound, and the fully wireless feature is worth it.

    These headsets sound incredible. I have had many different pairs in the past 7 years and these are by far the best ones. I was going to buy the NEW Astro A50 but they're not 100%wireless. You still need to hook up the wire to your controller in order to chat. With these turtle beach pair you do not need to. Total wireless! The presets are great and the ability to down load some more from the website is a headset with longevity.

    I upgrade from the dx12 and this headset if far better for gaming. NO WIRES! No wires to xbox and NO wires to controller. I LOVE this. The reason i upgrade was because the wires failed on the DX12. The wires hung off controller, get snagged on something and get pulled. The only con is that you have to plug in to charge. If you forget then you can possibly have the batteries run out in the middle of playing. You can charge while you play but you need a long usb cable.
