The Most Comfortable Headset! Couldn't Be Happier. (Chose these over the Turtle Beach Stealth 600!)

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2021

By no means am I a person who is well versed with understanding different audio capabilities, high and low frequency sounds, and how this headset compares to the vast and competitive line of other gaming headsets. With that, take this review for what you will.

I purchased the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 PS4 Headset and the Razer Blackshark V2 X that's compatible with the PS4. I wanted to pin them against each other as these seemed like two budget friendly options that many Youtuber's talk about. My ultimate choice was to keep the Blackshark V2 X because it is by far the most comfortable headset I have ever worn. It is really lightweight, has a very comfortable headband and ear pieces and has no pressure points. I also wear glasses once in awhile and I can say that the headset was beyond comfortable after hours of play while wearing glasses. It felt like thy weren't even there at all. To say that they are very comfortable is a complete understatement, just try them yourself.
The sound quality to me was great as well and while playing games, it felt like a thoroughly immersive experience. Not to mention the noise cancellation worked as advertised and it did make it difficult to hear anything around me while playing. With the exceptional bass the headset packs and the ability to hear the world around you, I really felt like I was in the game I was playing. For example, while shooting guns in games, the bass and the controller vibration make it feel like I'm really there in game. I was really blown away by that feeling. Very immersive and the sound quality was clear, consistent, and is something that I truly look forward to when I play now. While the build is a little different than what I'm used to, I really do think the pilot headset look is dope. No issues with the mic either.
I mentioned earlier that I chose these against the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 and some may want to know why I did. I found the TB's to be bulkier and heavier than what I already had and were also not nearly as comfortable. In my humble opinion, it doesn't matter how great a headset sounds, if the headset is uncomfortable, they're coming off. They had a lot of pressure points and with my glasses, they did tend to bother my ears (even though I have small sized ears). I also wear earrings and the design of the ear pads on the TB's irritated my ears and made them hot and a bit sore tbh. They sound great, pack plenty of bass and boy do they get loud, but to me, it wasn't worth the extra 50 bucks you'd spend if you did choose the TB's over the Blacksharks. I also tried to do a little test of the directional sound compared to the blacksharks and I didn't come across any difference in the quality of the directional audio and ability to hear other players nearby or in the direction shots were fired, etc.

Honestly, you won't be disappointed going with the Blackshark VS X. A quality product at a price you truly can't beat! See for yourself why so many people like this headset!

Great headset!

I was looking for something comfortable with balanced sound profile for fps games like helldivers and apex legends on ps5. This headset fit all of that and at a great price! I Have tried other headsets that had harsh clamp force. I’ve played hours with this one and it is very comfortable. Provides a nice seal to lock you into your games but doesn’t cause fatigue. The sound is really balanced to me. Not too much bass and audio doesn’t sound muddy like other headsets I’ve tried in this price range. I haven’t tried the app that comes along with the device for surround sound but out of the box the sound is very good. Build quality feels decent and not cheap. Would certainly recommend. Only nitpicks would be the mic and audio chord are not detachable. Would be a nice touch but I don’t really care. It also comes with a 2 yr warranty so I’m sure It’ll be fine over time.

Not the most comfortable, but pretty good all around and a great value.

Bought this to replace a Plantronics Rig wired headset. After about 6 hours of actual use I can say it isn't as comfortable as the old headset, but that's the only major downside. I paid literally half for this as compared to the Plantronics 5 years ago. It blocks outside noise better than the old headset even with new padding did, but it also doesn't allow nearly as much adjustment in terms of fit. The microphone is better, but there isn't as much ability to adjust it, and the mute button is in a weird position on the back. Sound quality is pretty decent though, and using a standard 3.5mm plug means I can use it with all of my wired devices still.

Light weight with great sound

Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2024

I had tried other cordless or Bluetooth headsets and I was never satisfied with the sound quality, performance or ease of use. This headset works well, has excellent sound quality in high, mid, and low range sounds, it is easy to set up, and my voice is clear when using any internet communication technology. The padding and large ear speakers fit comfortably and are not heavy like some brands.

Review: Gaming Headset

As an avid gamer, finding the perfect headset is essential for immersing myself fully into the virtual worlds I explore. The gaming headset I recently acquired has not only met but exceeded my expectations, providing an unparalleled gaming experience that has elevated my gameplay to new heights.

Let's start with the sound quality. From the moment I put on the headset, I was blown away by the clarity and depth of the audio. The powerful drivers deliver rich, immersive soundscapes that bring every game to life. Whether I'm navigating intense battles in a first-person shooter or delving into the atmospheric world of a role-playing game, the sound quality remains consistently exceptional. Crisp highs, rumbling lows, and precise spatial awareness make it easy to pinpoint enemy footsteps or immerse myself in the game's soundtrack.

Comfort is another crucial factor when it comes to gaming sessions that can last for hours on end. Thankfully, this headset excels in that department as well. The plush ear cups and adjustable headband ensure a comfortable fit, even during extended gameplay sessions. Additionally, the lightweight design means I can wear it for hours without feeling any discomfort or fatigue. This comfort factor is especially important for intense gaming sessions where focus is key, and distractions must be minimized.

Now, let's talk about the price. At $60, this headset falls into the mid-range category, but let me tell you, it's worth every penny and then some. Comparable headsets with similar features often come with a much higher price tag, making this headset a true steal. The combination of exceptional sound quality, comfort, and affordability makes it a must-have for any gamer looking to elevate their gaming experience without breaking the bank.
