i went to pick up a regular headset and saw this one cheaper. Since it's turtle beach, i decided to give it a chance. the plastic on it feels super cheap, but it works perfectly AND you can make game sound come out of it. An excellent minimal headset for the price

Sound is good. Its a chat only headset so the game volume does not come through - CHAT only. Its very good quality and super affordable if you just want to chat with friends. The reason i gave it 4 stars is the headband is a little uncomfortable and the mic does not stay in place where you move it . It keeps bending back downwards and gets wrapped in the wire sometimes. But overall a good value if you just want to talk to friends .

This is overall a great headset, and you can hear gameplay which is an added bonus. Only setback is that they require a bit of stretching out before wearing.

This headset was a little big and bulky for me however, the audio in the earpiece was very high quality. I could hear every word spoken in voice chat and everybody said that I sounded crystal clear.
It was just a little too bulky and got a little uncomfortable after wearing for over 30 minutes.

This headset is a little clunky, but for the price, it is just what I expected. I do like that you can switch right for left.

The headset has solid sound quality, so it's overall a good headset - especially for the price. However, I had two small issues with it. First, the pad on the earpiece is minimal at best, so it feels like my ear's in a cave rather than being comforted by padding. Second, the mic arm thing is strange to adjust and doesn't quite get into the position I'd like, but my friends can always hear me fine. Overall, still a good headset, though.

I'm pretty sure these headphones work well. I had the issue of having them work with the XBOX ONE S but after much research I believe the problem may have been with the XBOX controller. You need the adapter/extender(even with the XBOX ONE S controller) in order for this to keep on working. Boys loved it though.

Slightly cheaper than the OEM chat headset but not as comfortable. In line volume and mute controls are on the cord so not as quick to reach or as clear to know without looking down as the headset with the puck. Good mic clarity and no complaints with audio.

this is the cheapest and easiest wait for me to ensure that my son doesn't continue to break the multitude of headsets he has gone through in the last year with his Xbox One console I think he was on like 37 or some ridiculous number because I kept buying him the cheap ones I got the protection plan and now I know that I can get a new one for him without having to purchase it. What a great deal for only an extra ten bucks

While this works, it’s worse then the basic headset that comes with the Xbox. The head piece is way to big for my head, so it’s consistently falling down, the ear piece is very loose so it barely feels like it’s doing anything, and the volume at its max setting, is still very quite.

Nice for the price but couldn't hold up to my 10 year old. He's not to rough but not gentle either. Typical 10 year old boy. Broke after 2 month use. Not for kids lol great for older users who take care of equipment and on a budget

Bought this for my son's Xbox One. He also uses it for distance learning. Does the job, and he hasn't broken them yet, so that's a plus. He's 6 so he can be rough on things. Got the extended warranty just in case. So far so good. Also bought a pair for the PS4 for my other son. He loves them too. Looking to buy a third pair for my daughter.

I do little on line XBox gaming so I did not want to spend a lot on a XBox compatable headphone. The Turtle Beach unit does the job and is a good alternative to more expensive units.

Headset is still working after a year!! Usually my experience with cheap headsets is that they break in less than a year. Don't expect great surround sound with this head set. It's good for when you want to use your surround sound system and still be able to chat with friends or hear random kids tell you how fat your mom is on Xbox....
