The Turtle Beach Recon 50X gaming headset is a stellar choice for gamers across multiple platforms. Firstly, the audio quality is outstanding. The 40mm speakers deliver crisp and clear sound, allowing you to hear every detail and immerse yourself fully in the gaming world. Whether it's the subtle footsteps of an approaching enemy or the thunderous roar of an explosion, the headset provides a well-balanced sound that enhances the gaming experience. Comfort is another standout feature of the Recon 50X. The lightweight design and soft, leatherette-wrapped ear cups ensure extended gaming sessions without discomfort. The over-ear design effectively blocks out external noise, letting you focus entirely on your game. Moreover, the affordability of the Turtle Beach Recon 50X is another appealing aspect. Despite its high-quality features, this headset comes at a very reasonable price point, making it an excellent value for gamers looking for performance without breaking the bank.

This headset fits the kids and the ear pieces fit over their entire ear so they are comfortable for them. Sound is excellent and the mic is also great.

The headsets are perfect for our needs. When purchasing, we considered sound, look, comfort, portability, and price. A driving force was price. These were purchased within our budget and, quite frankly, they deliver quality of higher priced headsets. Turtle Beach is always a solid decision. The only downfall would be that they are wired, which can only be circumvented by an increase in price to another group of headsets. Great headsets. Great fun!

The Turtle Beach Recon 50P is a surprisingly impressive headset for its price. The sound quality is clear with good highs and decent bass, making both gameplay audio and voice chat easy to hear. It’s extremely lightweight with soft ear cushions, which makes it comfortable to wear for long gaming sessions without any pressure or fatigue.
The detachable microphone is a big plus — it’s clear for communication and easy to remove when you’re just watching videos or listening to music. The in-line volume and mute controls are convenient, and the 3.5mm connection means it works with PS5, PS4, and many other devices. It even supports 3D Audio on PlayStation, which adds more immersion to compatible games.
On the downside, the build quality feels a bit plastic, and the bass isn’t very strong. Some users might run into occasional microphone recognition issues depending on the device, but overall it performs very well for a budget headset.
If you’re looking for an affordable, comfortable, and reliable wired headset for PlayStation, the Recon 50P is a solid choice.

This is a really good headset at a low price point of $40. Its comfortable, the sound is good and it comes with a detachable microphone for multiplayer communication.

Decent headset for the money. Has good sound and mic works well. Doesn't noise cancel and mic doesn't retract. Fairly comfortable to wear during long gaming sessions. It is great for a backup headset or to allow others to use.

This is a great product. It’s comfy and can be adjusted for different head sizes. But, it does cancel out noise. The sound levels can be adjusted, as well as other players microphone noise. As long as charged for long enough, it can be very efficient with battery life. Buy one while you can!

These are decent and cheap. The volume isn't as loud as i hoped but for the price point you cannot really complain. The ear muffs are comfortable and doesn't cause your ears to sweat. The mic is clear and doesn't pick up too much background noise. I did notice an echo and you can hear yourself talk. However i think that may be an Xbox issue and not the headphones. As after a while the echo goes away but then comes back. Overall these are very decent for the price point. We got 3 of these for our household, so the kids and us can game together and chat without having to yell across the house.

Great product out of the box ready and durable. Nice comfort fit also. Only complaint is the price went up for them since last year.

For a budget headset, this one punches above its weight. Audio is clear, the mic works great for party chat, and it’s comfortable for long play sessions. Works well with Xbox and PC. If you need something reliable without dropping big bucks, the Recon 50X gets the job done.

They're headphones; so far they're holding up decently. They're about 9 months old now, so despite what a lot of new Turtle Beach naysayers disparage, them seem pretty decent for the price. Quality is what you'd expect with the price tag, but in a pinch, they do the job.

After looking at all the $60 -$100+ headset and almost giving in to purchasing a headset for both the Xbox One and PS4 since all of them were system specific I ended up pulling this from the bottom shelf and its Universal!!! Even the clerk was suprises they had this after about 20 min of looking and doing research for me. I did have to buy an adaptor for the Xbox one controller but even still the headset with the adapter was less then your standard system specific headset. Has great sound, feels comfortable, and its Universal!!!

I can't say that I have personally used this headset, but my 10 year old son uses it regularly and says that it's the best/clearest sound quality headset he has used thus far. I must admit, I really didn't want to spend this much money on a headset (have purchased the cheaper ones at 5 Below and some random brand at TJ Maxx.) Both of these were substandard and broke pretty quickly. So, finally, I caved and bought this one. No complaints from my son so far. He said that it's very comfortable and the sound quality is very good.
I'm a bit concerned that the microphone arm might eventually snap and/or come lose, which is what happened to the other headsets I've purchased ( and since he tends to move it around periodically) but so far, so good. Only time will tell, I guess. Overall, he is very happy with this item.

Really great for the cost and the most comfortable i’ve tried at this price range. They don’t get very loud with game volume but it’s worth the trade off if you just need the headphones for casual gaming.

These headphones are very good if you are a casual/hardcore gamer that doesn't have a lot in their wallet.
These headphones have a lot of pros few cons. Pros:Clear audio, Very comfortable as advertised, customizable volume, off or on button for mic, you can use for gaming or just watching a movie, you can also use these headphones for most phones,very long lasting (have used these headphones for more than 6 months now and they are as good as new),and my favorite thing about these headphones is that they are VERY durable. Little sibling twisted it? No problem! Dropped it? No problem! Threw it? No problem! These headphones can be a very easy fix if broke, warranty not really needed greatly. Cons are: Very few times for me I feel the plastic top of the headphones hurting my head when I play for long periods a little bit despite the headrest. Another con is if you have a big head these will not work very well for you. I am personally started in my teenage years and have to use the max suspension for the headphones to fit my head, and my head is below average to average size for my age. Overall if these Cons do not matter to you much, these are an excellent choice! If they do matter to you a little bit, I reccomend you try it out and if it does not work for you I believe there is a return policy for these headphones. Thank you for reading this review, I really put effort into this, so please mark it as helpful! I assure you I was not payed to say this as I am a average teenage gamer. Thanks for reading!
