Customers are saying

Customers commend the Elite 800 Wireless DTS 7.1-Channel Surround Sound Gaming Headset's exceptional sound quality, wireless functionality, and comfortable design. Many also appreciate its good battery life. However, some users find the buttons overly sensitive, the price high, and the fit snug for larger heads. A few also noted the headset's weight as a potential issue during extended use.

    I would definitely recommend. Good build quality and excellent sound. It's nice to be able to take phone calls while wearing the headset. Downside is its a bit too heavy.

    I love this headset. My one complaint is that undergoing a cold-reset is not intuitive or easy to figure out, and I had to do that once already to restore the connection. But it's a great fit, the hidden microphone basically wizardry, and it's constant-charge base keeps you from losing juice.

    Love the completely wireless. Switches to different modes too easy by touching on the shoulder. Have to re-pair with the transmitter too often. great noise cancellation.

    Almost perfect headset for the PS4 with incredible sound, great Bluetooth sound quality and much greater resistance to Wifi interference than Turtle Beach's previous PlayStation flagship headphones, the PX5. My only complaint about this unit is that I wished it played just a little bit louder!

    I have owned several xbox one headsets. I have owned thr microsoft stereo headset, turtle beach xo seven pros, polk 4 shot, and also the astro a50s. The elite 800x headset is the only one completely wireless. They sound amazing and have several equalizers. Mic sounds loud and clear. Great headset

    I have owned almost every pair of headphones available and these are hands down the best out for the X1. They sound great, have programmable presets, and are completely wireless. With all its features it is superior to even the Astros. If you are gonna drop $300 on a headset. Get these

    The build quality is great, they feel like your getting your money's worth. But looks aren't everything. The max volume isn't very loud at all. This isn't too much a factor when gaming. But if you intend to use these for music as well you will want to consider another option. Also what everyone says about the sensitivity of the controls is correct. If you watch tv/movies or game in any type of reclined position and the ear cuffs touch even the slightest surface it will change the mode your currently set to. Other then these issues they are good and I would get them again.

    Overall a great headset. I have had multiple different headsets throughout the last 8 years and these are hands down the top. The sound is amazing and clear and the ability to Bluetooth my phone to it for music and phone calls is perfect. I don't have a single bad thing to say!

    Spent a lot of time reviewing various headsets online and in the store. I have a Tritton Warhead 7.1 for my Xbox 360 and love the immersion of that headset. The Turtle Beach X800 headset stayed in my finalist category for Xbox One and was compared to several of the wired and wireless sets from Turtle Beach, Astro A40 and A50's, and a few options using higher end music headphones (did not test through Xbox One). Important features included the completely wireless setup. Bluetooth was definitely a good option but not a deal breaker if the headset didn't have it. Comfort for long gaming, great sound, sense of immersion, and ability to hold a charge or play while charging was my main criteria. The new A50 Astros made for Xbox One had some nice features but I didn't find them as comfortable (really going to be personal preference on this one). Sound was equally good on both I thought and could really go both ways. I ultimately decided that while gaming, I wasn't going to be as concerned about ultimate audiophile sound anyway though with an NAD 787 receiver and Golden Ear Triton II speakers, I am used to very good sound. I was concerned about voice since the X800's have a built in mic. The set I received had the latest firmware and there doesn't seem to be any complaints from other gamers and the few phone calls I've made using them have been just fine. I think the immersion has been excellent in most games and the extra features like Superhuman hearing and footstep mode make a noticeable difference. I'm a little above average with shooters but wouldn't claim the sound really caused me to go on a winning spree....Kids out there still have twitchy fast reflexes and play a whole lot more than I do :-) I've found myself at times wanting the sound and immersion of the headphones even when home alone and I could otherwise crank the home receiver. Tritton Warheads on X360 may have a slight bit more immersion though the sound isn't as rich on the low end. Being able to watch television when others are sleeping and still receive a phone call without having to go through a big commotion has been very useful. The touch guides on the ear cups aren't overly discernable to my fingers though they are pretty easy to remember after a few tries and the audio prompts let you know what you just pushed so you can know if it was the wrong thing. Very few mistakes after a little experience no not a major issue. Sound cancelling wasn't a huge feature for me but really does make a difference. It drops out a lot of white noise and blunts other sounds making the game sound more "in your head". I went back and forth with the A50's and the X800's because so many reviews tried to convince me the A50's were so much more but I just couldn't really agree. Some differences in sound but nothing I would say makes one a winner over the other. Feature set, appearance, charging stand, Bluetooth, all merging together for an excellent product. No problems to date and no regrets.
