Bought the Amazon Warehouse "Like New" ones. Good wireless headset with an awesome price.

Light weight wireless headsets with really good sound. Bought the used "Like New" ones with an awesome price. As of my concern they looked brand new on a scratch package and work great.
The only thing you should be aware is that it comes with two volume controllers, one for the regular sound and the other for the chat. So if you can't hear the others in the chat, check the volume controller to your right.

So far, so good

Got these for my kid since she was able to make a cheap pair finally last 6 months. Got these back in April for her birthday, they are durable and comfortable for her. Battery lasts her all day, even through her screaming and yelling at her friends. Easy to connect to her Xbox, sound quality is good, stays connected, takes a few hours to charge but lasts a long time. If these can last with my kid using them the way she does, there is no reason they shouldn’t last another year or two.

Works even after 24/7 use for years

Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2024

The battery life on these lasts quite a few days with constant use,they are very lightweight and durable they've been dropped and thrown due to rage gaming many times and never broke lol... (yes this happens ) my husband can't ever hear me when he has them on so noise cancelation is spot on and works like a charm he says the mic quality is better then other wireless headphones he's tried because he doesn't need to yell into it he can just talk and it's super clear with no echo or static which he says is important in the gaming the world. They have a decent range maybe 50 feet give or take my hubby can walk to the backyard and still hear his party and chat with them , overall they're worth it and I'm glad I bought them for him he seems happy and when they decide to break I'll be buying again. I'd recommend to any gamer pc or console just due to the durability and battery life alone .

Honest and to the point.

Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2020

This is going to be long, but honest (PROS and CONS at bottom). For gaming they're great for the price, this is coming from a long time Turtle beach user. However, there are some issues. Quality: This headset is like the all-arounder. It has solid build quality, doesn't feel cheap, nice feeling material, good audio, bass, works fantastic with all of my devices and my Xbox one and PS4. So, where's the issue then? The audio quality. It's not loud, even with my mixamp and other devices. For the this price point, there are $50 (even less) Turtle beach headsets with louder and better quality. The audio is good at times and then muffled. It seems like it struggles with the differentiation between chat audio and game or whatever other background audio. Had to keep telling my friends to shhhhh when trying to hear footsteps on Battlefield 5.

So, where it lacks in full on audio quality, it makes up for it in overall build quality and comfort. Which takes me to my next point. Comfort: It's great. I game for long, long sessions at a time or listen to music, a lot. So I need a headset that doesn't make my head hot, doesn't squeeze my head or hurt that bone part of my ears. I've used Turtle Beaches because of comfort with the larger ear cushions. Even though these looks small, they're soft yet firm at the same time. Usually companies make them super soft leather, but filled with air it seems. These are that soft leather feel, yet a little squishy at the start, then firm. There is also thick padding between the speaker and your ear but not thick enough to muffle audio. The headset is also decently flexible, meaning you don't have to be super delicate with it. Now I'm not saying to go play football with it, but you get what I mean.

One thing I would like to warn people of:
We all have different shaped heads, lol, so there is no twisting of the earcups. Once they are on, they are on the same way for everyone. They are very comfortable for me, but maybe for someone that needs one or two of the earcups to be offset, this is not going to do it. Which will be uncomfortable and leave gaps so you will not be getting that noise cancelling.

Now, the noise cancelling. Is great. Although I'm sad no one can hear my awesome music of what sounds like Satan being summoned from the underworld. Good news though, I can no longer hear people yelling at me to turn it down.

So overall for the price would I recommend them over pretty much everything else here? yes. Because of the overall quality. I use them mainly for my Xbox One and my PS4. They're great, good looking, not overly flashy like most headsets feel they have to be. If you're someone like me who valued quality, and would prefer it over some flashy features, then this is the mid range-ish headset that's really good.

Some small details I'd like to add:
The cables going from the earcups to the headband are braided. Nice bit of extra quality and the small touches mean they put time into the design.

The headband will twist a bit giving some flex to the structure.

There's no static or distorted audio when using the audio wheel with the inline controls. They are quality, the wheels has a nice rotation but not loose so your shirt doesn't grab and lower your audio on you. That's is a very small detail that I wish other companies would do. I don't know if it was intentional, but very pleased. I enjoy laying down some times and playing games. The cord some times goes in between my body and arm and when you turn your head, you pull the cord. Causing the audio wheel to turn when grabbed. This didn't do that at all.

MASSIVE WARNING: DO NOT GET YOUR FINGERS CAUGHT BETWEEN THE EARCUPS AND ALUMINUM. Wow, the metal is pretty sharp and you may panic and they lock down onto your fingers. Was not expecting that.

PROS:
Affordable
Comfortable
Durable
Good audio
Good build quality
Works with anything with a 3.5mm headphone jack
Fantastic noise cancelling
Great mic quality
Extremely light in terms of weight
Braided cables are always nice
Volume wheel has some tension so won't grab on your clothing messing up your audio.
Noise cancelling for you and those around you. If you have a loud air conditioner or loud people around, this headset will help. My AC is about 5 feet from me and a larger one. It's loud, with this headset I only hear a slight hum. Once I'm playing or watching something or even talking to people, I don't hear it anymore.

CONS:
Not the loudest speakers (They are like those old speakers that take some time to get warn in before you get the full audio quality. Took me about 1 day of normal usage. So roughly 6 yours or so)
Non twistable earcups so won't work for some head shapes.
EXTREMELY SHARP aluminum on the earcups with nothing to stop you from almost losing a finger. I'm a grown man, it almost broke skin. If it were a small child, that would have not been so good. So please be careful with your fingers.
The noise cancelling, yes yes, how could it be a con you say? It works too well some times. My family literally has to be in my room next to me screaming for me to hear them. So, if you like to play in a war zone or the in-laws are in town, these will be great for you.

All in all, it's a good headset and worth the price. I'll update this if anything should change, but as of right now it's a solid, quality headset for people who want something nice, but don't want to spend $300 on a headset.

Thank you for your time, and sorry for typos and grammatical errors.

Be safe in these times everyone.

Edit: After 2 months of solid use, the headset is not built the strongest. I'm already having issues with static. My friends hear static when I touch or move the Mic boom. It's extremely loud and awful. The speakers have also lost their bass. If you aren't a hardcore gamer, these should be fine. But if you're an every day gamer, avoid.

Sounds Great - Chat/Game Mix

Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2024

One of the things I was looking for was a chat/game mix control on the headset. I watched a lot of reviews before I chose this one. I didn't realize how bad the headset I had was until I put these on and played a game with them. I liked them enough that I just ordered a second set for my other console. Totally worth the asking price.

Worth every penny.

I have a small head (Im guessing) because none of the headsets I’ve purchased were comfortable or, if they were, they didn’t last or the mic was garbage. And I’m not talking about cheap ones - Astro, Turtle Beach, Steel Series, wireless and wired. This is the cheapest, most comfortable and (based on the people I play with) has a mic quality that you’d normally find with wired.

Highly recommend this!

Overall I think it is great for a chat headset

Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2020

This is my most comfortable *chat* headset I have ever had. I previously had a turtle beach headset but I think this one is better because it is much more comfortable. I have a small head so it is comfortable. Some people say it is too small you can change the size by pulling the middle. I also noticed in the description it said this was a noise canceling headset but it isn’t and I did not think it did. Some people have written bad reviews on this because they say this is not a noise canceling headset. Even though it doesn’t have noise canceling I still think it is awesome. Also people have written that there is no game sound but that is why it is a chat headset and it clearly says that. The sound quality is good. I have had this for a month and it has been good. But for every time I play Fortnite I have to put gamechat on and off for my friends to hear me but I had the same problem with my previous headset so I think it is like that because of my controller. My controller is like 2 years old so maybe thats why not a malfunction with the headset. Also for my first game of Fortnite I played I heard gamesound but then after that round the game sound went back to my TV. I don’t know why that happened. Overall I think it is a very decent chat headset.
