Really great and easy to set up
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some of them have had some issues setting up for a first time use. This one was as easy as plug and play and so the kid in the house was super happy and excited and I just loved how much cheaper it is is than a lot of the others.

Stopped working after 1 week...TWICE
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased and exchanged this headset when it stopped working after 1 week, thinking it was defective. Had the exact same problem with the second set. When reading troubleshooting online, they acknowledge that you can't use the headset when the xbox controller is plugged in, that it may require purchasing a headset audio control adapter (approx. the same price as the headset). you cant do both game audio and chat, you can only choose one. Audio was so low even at the highest setting that you could barely hear anything. Even the salespeople tried to steer me towards different headsets..i should've listened!

Echo

Horrible echoing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the worst headsets I can remember buying. Could not for the life of me get this headset to stop echoing when connected to xbox controller. No amount of settings changes would work. Idk if it was that the tiny mic arm was too close to the speakers or what. Don't recommend.

Great sounding and comfortable replacement headset
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was quite surprised at how nice these headphones are for the price! The sound is excellent with great lows and crisp highs. One thing to be aware of right away, is you need to have a controller with a 3.5mm headphone jack, or you will need to purchase the XBox One Headset Audio Controller add-on. Luckily, I have a controller from PDP that I actually bought for my Windows PC that had the audio jack. The headset is very lightweight, but seems well constructed. I have a fat head, so at first they were a tad snug, but there is plenty of adjustment, so I was able to find a comfortable setting. I wear glasses, so I have to be pretty selective with these type of over-the-ear headphones, or I end up with shooting pains in my ears after a little while. The ear holes were a perfect fit, and the pads are nice and soft, so they are very comfortable and I didn't have any issue with ear pain. The surround sound is awesome. It really immerses you in the game! I usually play with external audio, so having these headphones on I could hear every little game sound and it was quite awesome. The spatial sound really makes you hear things in different directions, and volume levels. The microphone works just fine and audio quality was great. It has the easy flip style mic that shuts off the mic by simply putting the mic in the vertical position, so it's really easy to mute when you want to and quickly un-mute when you need to talk. About the only thing missing is a volume control, so you will need to adjust the volume settings with the game volume settings. It would've been a nice thing to put a volume control on the headset. Hard to go wrong with this headset if you're looking for a replacement for the stock XBox One headset! Also works great on my Windows PC, so definite bonus there! Great job Turtle Beach!
