Sound great, lite, and works with anything. They say xbox one but if you do optical out from your TV into the input on the receiver for the headphones you can listen to all your devices. And work great for computers/portables that have Bluetooth . My only complaint is the ear cups aren't deep enough for me, my ears touch the back and behind the mesh is hard plastic that hurt my ears after about 2 hours. If it wasn't for my personal problem I would rate 5 stars

The gaming sound as well as comfort are outstanding with these, but during online gaming there was a terrible echo from the other players. As a result I returned these in exchange for the Astro A50 headset and haven't looked back

After several months of looking in-store and research online I was considering buying the Playstation Gold Wireless Headset or the Turtle Beach Stealth 500P for a bit more money. However, I saw these Elite 800 in the store and after trying on the Gold and the 500P I found them not as comfortable. This Elite 800 was remarkably more comfortable in the fit so I made an impulse decision to spend the big bucks, and I am VERY happy I did.
I am not an audiophile but from my perspective, the sound and power from these headphones is great. The audio is clear and full with powerful bass over a wide spectrum. I was surprised by how much more audio there was to my games when I was using these headphones, it was crazy what I was missing playing through regular speakers.
The fit is very comfortable for me and the noise cancelation works very well. It easily filters out ambient room noises but still allows you to know when somebody is talking to you (although you will still need to remove the headphones to understand them). As for fit, they are very comfortable to wear over long play sessions.
Next, I really like that the charging stand doubles as the transmitter so you don't have a huge dongle hanging off the front of the console. The setup took some time and was a bit cumbersome but once done they work perfectly. My only other issue I have with these is that the box advertises you get "Elite Membership" with Turtle Beach which comes with a lot of extra goodies for free. However, Turtle Beach has put the program on hold without notice of when it will resume. So if you're buying this for those "Elite" extra features, consider them nonexistent at the moment.
Overall, these headphones are a bit expensive but they are well worth the money to get the extra comfort if you're looking in the $100 range and are willing to spend a bit more. I highly recommend these to everyone.

I chose these over the Astro A50 and the new wireless astros that will soon come out. Went in head first on the purchase with a very questionable purchase lol. My first thought was these are not worth the money and take them back. Looking into the instruction manual. I found you can change the sound output to multiple settings. To name a few game mode,bass booster and signature sound which I prefer. THE COOLEST ASPECT IS I CAN LISTEN TO MUSIC AND PLAY MY GAMES! Yes that is correct. I have game volume and music and chat all at the same time. It is actually a neat feature. If you can get past the slight headache of the pressure the headset has on your head. It's not that bad but kind of a flaw. Another flaw is if your resting your head on a pillow. You will most of the time press the side plates/buttons. Pretty annoying. I do recommend them as they do have the most features out of a gaming headset. They sound pretty good as well great for locating when playing fps.

Long time TB user and have great experience over the years. I first purchased the Stealth 700 but returned it with sound issues. Friends had the 800X and loved it so I decided to buy it, although it was more than I wanted to spend. It does work great, but occasionally I have interference issues with the sound. Not sure why as I sit all of 6 feet from the transmitter. Thus giving it a 4 instead of a 5 star.

I returned the Astros I bought for these. Bluetooth to your phone picks up and makes calls, while in game, no wires at all. Just set it on the base to charge them. LOUD. Be careful. Touch sensitive buttons, take some getting used to. No boom mic but people hear you fine.

Pros:
- Flawless wireless with easy setup on Xbox one. The base connects to the Xbox one via the optical input. The headset is wirelessly connected to the charging base.
- Bluetooth while gaming works well for not missing phone calls
- Battery Life: I just put it in the cradle every night and I've never had an issue with up to 6 hour gaming sessions.
- Audio Quality is excellent
Cons:
- Very easy to accidently hit the faceplate buttons and screw up the sound while playing
- During extended very quiet game moments it will register as being idle and turn off (VERY ANNOYING)
- Microphone quality isn't as good as a boom mic. My friends commented that I was a little harder to hear.
Overall solid headphone

I have now had these headphones for about a month and I have got to admit, they are excellent.
My main intent for buying new headphones was for gaming but I also wanted to be able to listen to music and watch movies so I really wanted nothing less than an all round excellent listning experience. And the Elite 800X did not disappoint.
The various sound setting are perfect for whatever your preference is and can be modulated to if you are playing games, listening to music or watching movies. You can even calibrate the headphones to the type of games you are playing (shooter, racing etc.)
So essentially I am very satisfied by my purchase. Hopefully it will be a long and enjoyable experience.

My Brother first recommended this headset to me after we had been searching for the "Best" headset for a couple of weeks. At first I thought, "Well that seems a bit excessive!" Boy, I was wrong! After using this headset for a couple weeks now I can never go back to anything less. Games are SO much more immersive, rockband 4 is on a completely different level than it's ever been! And the wireless charging dock... Yes!!! Switching from my chat party to a phone call... Seemless. If you can get these, get them.
Also, because of the cushioned EarPads I can wear these for hours (with seeing glasses, raybans) and no discomfort or ear fatigue which has been a big problem in the past.

First gaming headset, so i can't really compare to others, but the sound quality is great. Like the fact that it has bluetooth and can connect it to my mobile phone. Wish Turtle Beach releases a hotfix though, to update a couple of glitches that i noticed and reported relating to bluetooth connectivity, otherwise great product.

Turtle Beach - Elite 800 Wireless

Pros: Good sound when working*
Cons: Sound works intermittently, when the game or movie noise gets quiet the head set cuts off. I changed settings and EQ profiles, always had the same problem. The touch controls are nice but get annoying because they are over sensitive and not intuitive. Last but not least is that the ear cup depth is not enough, so after an hour of playing the ear phones physically hurt my ears.
Other thoughts: I usually always go with turtle beach but this time I cant support their product, not even close to worth the money. I sent these back in for a refund.

This is not my first Turtle Beach headset. I like the sound of this headset, and that's a good thing, because the app doesn't work for IOS and the Ear Force Audio Hub for computer (Windows 10) also doesn't work! The lesser version worked, but it updates automatically and the vers 6.8.4 just not working for me and Turtle Beach has been unresponsive to my inquires. The standard presets work for me and I'm only using it for gaming not music, phone etc. So the headset is working for me. However this is an EXPENSIVE headset to not be able to control it the way I should be able to.
I like the no mic boom but the sidetone audio (being able to hear yourself) is not as good as the headsets I had that did have a boom.
I would NOT buy this headset again. If they fix the app for IOS and fix the computer hub program I might feel differently.

BEST FEATURE IS WHEN YOU PUT THEM ON YOU CANT HEAR MUCH OF ANYTHING AROUND YOU! SO YOU DON'T HAVE ANNOYING PEOPLE BUGGING YOU AT HOME. AND NOISE CANCELLATION IS A SUPER PLUS!
LOVE WHEN I PUT THEM ON PEOPLE HAVE TO TAP ME ON THE SHOULDER BECAUSE I'M KNEE DEEP IN KILLING ZOMBIES ON BO3.
WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU COULD PROGRAM THESE LIKE THE OLDER MODELS. BUT SUPER HUMAN HEARING IS DOPE!

At forst the price made me hesitant to purchase this headset. Ive owned several other headset that were priced below 150. After having different issues with them, i decided to try these. I wasnt disappointed. They sound great. Easy to use and setup. They are comfortable to wear.(I usually play for 4+) it has bluetooth so you can answer phone calls or listen to music while gaming. I am totally satified with this headset.
