Works well and is durable
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've used this headset for years between my xbox one and my pc once I got an adapter, and I've gotta say it's pretty sturdy and reliable considering the amount of times i've thrown it or caught it on the side of my desk without it breaking or even being slightly disfunctional. The mic I've heard from friends isn't bad for just like a console headset but I think the audio works well for everything including games that need spatial audio.

Do not waste your money!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This mic broke down like all the rest of them do. It started messing up as soon as it was too late to return it to the store. These headphones are not quality at all. Best Buy will just make you buy a new one since it’s past the return date. This is my 4th mic buying there. I am starting to think it’s a scam job. Why is Best Buy so comfortable selling products that won’t last.

Microphone went out after two months
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The microphone stopped working after two months. Previously Best Buy processed manufacturer warranty for the year. However, Best Buy acted like I was crazy and they’ve never done it. But I’ve returned things there for years under the manufacturer warranty. Huge pitb going through the manufacturer. Especially during Covid as they are short staffed.

Cheap and it Shows
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my son's third Turtle Beach headset. The more expensive ones both broke but at least he was able to use them for about a year. This inexpensive model broke in just over two months. We will are going to try a different brand.

Started having issues within 2 months..
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were cool at first, but after some weeks noticed that there would be an issue with the cord where it plugs in. You had to set the cord a certain way to make contact or else one side of the headset wouldn’t work. Definitely not worth the price.

Great for the price
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice design, comfortable ear cushions, and head band. I particularly like the angle of the headband to the speakers. It lets you place the headband on the top of your forehead, and still have the speakers and mic line up where they are supposed to be. I appreciate this, because I can't stand headband hair. Doing this with other headsets, puts the mic too far from your mouth, and makes it harder for others to hear you. Keep in mind, I'm not saying this headset has to be worn like this, It fits just fine in the traditional position, over the middle of the head, I just prefer not to have to fix my hair all the time, so this one is perfect for that. The speakers are only 40mm, but can still deliver a descent amount of bass, and volume to keep most everyone happy. The mic is a little shorter than other sets, but still worked just as good. In fact it was nice to have it out of the way. Muting can be done quickly, just by tilting the mic up. The volume dial is big enough to find quickly as well, right behind the left ear cup. This set (for the Xbox One) offers surround sound capabilities. The other versions are advertised as stereo headsets, primarily because the Xbox One utilizes the Dolby Atmos app, to deliver it's surround sound features to the headset. Although, even without the Atmos app, the sound direction is very good with this headset. Listening to the Atmos demo's are always very impressive with a capable headset or audio device. Even though this headset is made for the Xbox, it can work with anything that has a 3.5mm headset jack. I tried it on my phone, and other consoles, it worked just as good, but didn't get that rich Atmos sound, it does with the Xbox One. Overall, this is a great choice for style and sound with a budget in mind.

Good Sound and Value
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones Whats in the box ————————— Headset Recon 50X Gaming Headset for Xbox One Microphone Removable Microphone Guide Quick Start Guide Pros —— 1. Cheap, its only 40$ 2. Its got a removable mic 3. 3.5mm jack makes it compatible with most devices 4. 40mm driver produces good bass Cons —— 1. None at this time Review ———— The headphones are great, its got a nice build quality and I think it will last for a while. The color combination kind of goes hand in hand with my xbox colors. I have a large head and this headphones fit me very well. The 3.5mm connector makes it universal and I can connect it to my xbox or I can also listen to movies on my tablet The Bass, Treble and Mids have a good tone and it is very clear. I used the headphones to make a few Skype calls and the other party can hear me clearly. I am left handed and I like the mic placement on the left side, the mic be adjust to fit either left or right… Overall I think it is a great set of cheap wired gaming headphones.

Nice headset!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this headset! It is really comfortable for long periods of gaming, the audio quality is great, and it works on other consoles that use a standard audio jack. I got lots of compliments from my friends about how clearly my voice audio came through while gaming! I also love that they took the time to match the colors with the gaming console! All in all, a great gaming headset that won't break the bank!

Nice, basic gaming headset
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are using this headset with our Xbox One. My kids mostly play Fortnite and so need to use a gaming headset all the time. This one is nice in terms of comfortable fit, sound quality and mic usefulness. They like how the mic is a bit shorter than others, thinking that maybe it will be less prone to getting broken accidentally.
