Review: Can't recommend these enough - Casual gamer here, but these are incredible value. Fit and feel is second to none. Connectivity is solid, retractable mic is unexpectedly appreciated. The mic has an LED indicator when it's muted which is a nice touch. Sound quality punches above its price point and even has an app that allows you to choose from basic presets and game specific presets and the list is HUGE. Usually play for about an hour or two at a time and never feel discomfort. Setup was straightforward with the wireless dongle on Xbox. Came from wired Astro A20's and feel like they're in the same realm in terms of quality, but more customization and WAY lighter.
Review: If you're looking to purchase something in the middle these are a great option - I had used the PlayStation exclusive headphones for the PS4 and PS5, and at the end of that journey I'm quite disappointed. Both pairs made my ears uncomfortable after having worn them for maybe 30 minutes. They would always cut out whether the dongle was plugged into the back of the PlayStation or into the front. I know that Sony's pretty good about updating their firmware so there shouldn't have been any issues in that regard. I spent so long asking people and reading through reviews until I finally settled upon these. So far I'm not disappointed! The ones that are labeled for Xbox are $50 cheaper than the ones labeled for PlayStation, and they're the exact same thing. And the "Xbox" branded ones are compatible with PlayStation, Switch, PC, and mobile. They can also switch to Bluetooth mode if you don't want to use the dongle, and the sound quality for music using my phone was actually pretty decent for middle of the road. The retractable microphone and alleged up to 60 hours of battery life makes the fact that they're lightweight even better. And the most important part, they're comfortable. They adjust to accommodate most head sizes I would assume. These gaming headphones are a great recommendation from me! I did read one review where somebody complained about the mic quality. After doing a mic test on my PlayStation I haven't had any complaints from people that I've spoken to. Decent quality, design, and volume control

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing headphones! Definitely worth it
*by J***A on December 13, 2025*

These Bluetooth and 2.4 wireless headphones are excellent for gaming. The sound quality is clear and immersive, with no noticeable lag when using the 2.4 wireless mode. Setup was quick and easy, and switching between Bluetooth and wireless is super convenient. They’re comfortable for long gaming sessions, the connection is stable, and the battery life has been solid so far. For the price, these headphones deliver great performance and versatility. Definitely a great choice for gamers.
