    After countless hours reviewing headsets in the $60-120 range I was left lost with what seemed like no real option. Then I came across these bad boys for $40 and it was game on. Sound is crisp, footsteps and gunshots are easily detectable directionally, they are comfortable and the removable microphone is the cherry on top. Look no further for your headset. P.S. since purchasing these I have had FOUR friends go out on my recommendation to buy the same pair (albeit they all bought white when I got black). They are all thrilled with them still, and it’s been about a month.

    This Headset was exactly what i was looking for. MY husband has an XBOX ONE CONSOLE, & Back in January 2020 he purchased himself a better controller, XBOX ONE WIRELESS.. ARMED FORCES II Controller. Then for past 6 months he wanted a headset w/mic for while playing LIVE, online. He really wasn't sure what to get so I decided, to look around & check out ALL the diff headsets & read to see what would work with. Then last wk, mon, i picked up the Turtle beach Recon 50X headset w/mic & when he got home Fri surprise him. He loved it, & just like i read on TURTLE BEACH site & here, it plugged right into the Jack on ARMED FORCES & after going into console settings. To adjust volume from tv to headset. HE was online PLAYING CALL OF DUTY. This was a great purchase at a great price. I also purchased the 2 year REPLACEMENT PLAN.

    So I picked up this Turtle Beach headset as a budget-friendly option, and I’m honestly happy with what you get for the price. The sound quality is clear and balanced. Good enough for both gaming and general use. I wasn’t expecting much at this price point, but it delivers way more than I anticipated. The fit is comfortable enough for long gaming sessions, and the microphone does a decent job of picking up voice clearly without too much background noise. [ It’s not a premium headset by any means, but considering the price, it more than holds its own. ]

    Real Review!! I play the game on occasion somtimes I’ll play the game a few days in a row (not straight) but they’re solid fr I play Warzone a lot and it’s definitely helped out thtoughout the game. The mic is solid as well very clear on both ends, me and my homie got them together and I plan on using them til I can’t. Definitely get it and it’s a good price for a college student.

    For the price I give it four, don’t bother with a similar priced Amazon rando. The sound on these beat those but the ear pads are a bit cheap. Great for kid’s first headset, or a backup pair.

    Bought this for my 7 year old . He seems to like and hasn’t complain about the sound so am assuming it’s doing it’s job . He had a different one and would complain that it wasn’t loud enough.
