    The Turtle Beach - Recon 200 Gen 2 is a great headset at a great price point. The improved ear cushions provide excellent comfort for extended use and are designed for gamers with glasses. The sound is great and they get super loud! This headset will work with anything that can take a 3.5 mm headphone cable which is awesome. Additionally, the Recon 200 is battery powered which helps it produce the big and boosted sound. When the battery runs out, you will still get sound but without the boost. Battery life is around 12 hours on a single charge. All the controls are located on the headset itself and includes a flip-to-mute feature. So no more fiddling with the inline mute switch or volume control. Overall, this headset is great. You get great sound, features, versatility and ease of use at an excellent price. You really can't go wrong here!

    Decent Sound

    This Turtle Beach headset has some decent sound for a device in this price range. Nice bass that is not muddled unless you turn it way up (and sacrifice your hearing at that volume) and the mic does an above average job of picking up my voice during chat. Build quality is just average for this price point but the comfort while wearing for extended periods make up for that. It's not too heavy and I've had no problem having this on my head for up to eight hours. My only complaint is that it requires charging but is not wireless and that is uses a 3.5mm headphone jack rather than USB. Overall, a decent headset.

    So far I do not have any complaints about this headset. Comfort - They fit well and are light weight. The ear pads do not pinch or bunch on my ears like my old ones did. The headphone volume, mic volume, and system selector is on the back of the left ear so that makes everything centrally located. The mic can be flipped up easily as well when it's not needed. Performance - It's been great so far. I have been using it straight out of the box and have put about 5-6 hours on them. I still haven't had to charge the batteries and haven't had any issues. The sound quality is good and I haven't had anyone complain about not being able to hear me. I can even hear myself breath when it's dead silent. Overall - 5 Stars so far.

      Thanks for your feedback Kareem! Please bear in mind that your headset will break in over time, which should result in a better fit after you've used it for a while.

      As a heads up; please know that due to the wide variations in head sizes and shapes, it's not possible to design a one-size-fits-all headset that will fit absolutely 100% of all users. However, we consistently provide a comfortable fit for the overwhelming majority of our customers.

      However, if you feel as if you're in need of assistance with your headset; please be sure to reach out directly to our dedicated Support Team. They will happily assist as needed. TurtleBeach
