Great sound quality
Likes: light weight, easy to use plug and play, great sound quality
Dislike: mic comes through a little quiet at times need the mute and unmute to resolve
Other than that feels great doesn’t feel like scratchy cheap plastic which is nice plenty of cord from controller to head my struggle for pc use though
Hope was helpful
Thanks
Amazing, great quality
I bought some more expensive headsets and had to return them for their faults.
This product was nowhere near the price and completely trumphs the more expensive headsets I purchased.
Great quality
Mic that adjusts to veritcal and horizontal perfectly.
Comfortable to wear for multiple hours and sound quality is great !
Can not recommend enough, have had for nearly 5 months now
Great for price
Bought these for my daughter to use with her nintendo switch. So good. Definitely worth money
Disappointing
This has alrrady stopped working. Theres obviously a lise connection somewhere which is causing my autistic son much frustratio
Xbox one headse
Good product easy set up good sound and mic is clear reccomend this product.
100% Reccommend i
Very easy to use. The mute system did catch me off gaurd though bu you have to move the mic up into the offline position or mute position, it’s a very durable mic and it sensitive to sound so it can hear you easily and sometimes ur surroundings. The wites are firmly put into the mic and not easily pulled out and broken as I have multiple times accidently stood in the wire and pulled my headset and it has flung back down to the floor but the wires are still intact!

They’re 20 quid, they do the job. Bass is a bit weak but quality is decent.
Very good quality headphones
Bought these for my boyfriend and he was pleasantly surprised with how good these are. They are great value for money and are very easy to just plug in and use. He said that the sound is clear and they are very comfortable to wear.

Microphone works with Nintendo switch unlike some of the other headphones on Amazon that claim to
Great headphones – ordered after sending a slightly cheaper pair of headphones back that claimed to work with the Nintendo Switch. These work really well with Fortnite (make sure the in game settings are set up properly first – few videos online showing how to do this)
Great quality as well – thoroughly recommend
Solid headset for the cos
Pretty good considering the price, only real drawback in the set i got is some slightly ‘sqeaking-creaking’ plastic noises on the left ear unit when i put them on/take off, that aside they have great sound quality and good mic too, volume control is easy to use, thought the 3 point mic positions was a bit strange only needs 2 really one for on and one for mute but all in all top notch headset for the price, I usually just buy cheap earbuds with a mic (that i would listen to music on my phone) to use on playstation this was a solid choice to make an upgrade without going overboard on costs
Single 3.5mm Jack Lightweight Great Quality Headphones
My sons are 8 and 12 and these headphones fit them both perfectly and are lightweight enough to be comfortable but solid enough to withstand some of the “uncareful” that tends to come with 8 and 12 year old boys! They mainly wanted to use them to plug directly into the PS4 controller to be able to listen/talk on games and this single Jack Audio works well. It is also useful on a laptop with a single headphone socket as when plugged into that area the mic works too so great for Zoom/Skype etc…whereas on my desktop computer there is a separate headphone (green) and mic (pink) socket so these heaphones would then need a splitter.
Bought this as a replacement for my old one of these. Excellent headset for the price. Only critique is that it has a weird packaging smell.

Great quality headphones
These sit over my ears, not on them, which is much more comfortable. Other headphones I have had hurt my ears after a long time wearing, but these don’t. A volume control on the earpiece means I can adjust the loudness separate to the tv when I am gaming. A great buy!

Pretty darn good
Honestly best pair of headphones I’ve worn. Great sound And it’s comfortable. But somehow it got those small cracks. Doesn’t affect anything. Can’t see them normally, and it does t affect the headset in any way but other than that it’s fine. I’d recommend it. Really good for its price.
Stylish sleek well made
The sound is god quality you can flip up the mic to be silent you have to adjust the sound settings on you computer which can be tricky it comes with a quick set up guide eventhough the ear pieces are well padded it does tend to make your ears ache after wearing for 2+ hours it would be nice to have more colour options

Really nice headse
I bought these headphones as a replacement for my phone earphones as after a while if using them they became really uncomfortable. The soft pads really help if you are using them for long periods. The mic works really well and the flip action is great if you do not use it. The sound from these is awesome and so clear. The adjustable volume works really well also. If you are looking for a gaming headset for your ps4 here it is.
Sound Is O
The Headset is comfortable for a good few hours but can sit heavy on the head after several prolonged sessions.
Sound is of good quality, enough to play games like Dayz and Dead By Daylight with great enjoyment without feeling held back.
I have been told the Mic is clear with litte to no noise pollution or “empty room” ehco.
Great Budget Gaming Headset from Turtle Beach
Great sound for a great price. Good volume, bass and treble although I recommend enhancing with the audio plus attachment. Cable perfect length and because it plugs into the controller does not interfere with gaming making a more expensive wireless version almost pointless?

Good on a budget, Works on Series S|X
Pros: Good for on a budget
Works great on series S|X
Block out a good amount external noise
Can hear noises you wouldn’t normally hear on standard speakers
Cons: Can become a little uncomfortable after prolonged use
Not a great deal of bass
Edit: 8 months on and still in as new condition and fully operational.
If your looking at the negative reviews and are being put of by them please remember these may be people who don’t look after things or have received a faulty set but didn’t return them.
I’m Not saying these will last forever but I don’t abuse them by yanking the wire or throwing them across the room because I got shot or lost a race however I look after mine and 8 months on I I could put them back in the box and sell them as if they were new.
Avoid. Sound failed on one side after a month.
Terrible set of earphones. First set the sound didn’t work on one side. Got a replacement and now this is faulty… so each set worked for just one month. Now amazon say I can’t have a replacement ae I’ve already had a replacement.. .Avoid these earphones.and if you do find that they fail to work ask for a refund and not a replacement.
Good sound, comfortable & from feed back the mic works well and the lift up mute works great.
Do what they say they do.
Also not just for gaming, good all round headphones for music and watching movies.
These are just a few of things Miley (my dog) said about them. She was disappointed that they didn’t taste better and there wasn’t a picture of a dog on them.
*Disclaimer*
No dogs where harmed or in distress in the making of this review. Plenty of treats where given and several kisses and hugs.
Very recommended
Very good product for cheap price! Prepare to be isolated from the rest of the world while having this headset on! Adjustable to perfection (I’ve a tiny head :)) and cover widely your ears, even if you’ve big ones like me!
Good material, foldability and mic’s power!
Only two cons: you need to manually rotate back the mic if you’d like to mute yourself (I knew it before buying it though) instead of having a button as the Turtle Beach Recon 50P that I previously had. This is a bit complicated while playing, while for the volume regulator even if is at the back, next to the mic, this it’s not too hard to be used.
The other thing I don’t personally like is that after a while your ears will be very warm.

If your starting out in gaming or budget is a concern. This is the way to go.
This is a great headset for the money. Volume is high enough. Comfort is good. Mike seems good , but not used it much yet. All plastic, but no reason why this should be a problem if you treat it properly. You can also use to listen to nextflix,prime,apple tv.
Great produc
First set of gaming headphones purchased, which are for Warzone on the Xbox. I was struggling in multiplayer with my friends where I could hear them, but they couldn’t hear me. Just go into options and audio tab, then scroll down to ‘Mic’ settings and turn them both up to full whack…job sorted.

Sound 10/10. Design 10/10. Comfort 9/10 overall 10/10
I’ve had these for many months now, I’ve tried a different turtle beach headset in past and broke in a week, but THIS particular 1 has surprised me to last me many months now, proven reliable, quality hasn’t deteriorated and the volume adjustment is behind left ear piece which I apsalutly love, I hated previous head sets when gaming and the arm drags the wheel on the wire, very comfortable but on a spare day after a whole day and a late night eventually ears do start to ack but I guess it’s what to expect, overall it’s a 10/10 for me, I’d be sure to get the same set when eventually it breaks. Highly Recommended although I got my brother the same set and he found the band on top added too much pressure to him (just needs wearing enough to get it to adapt)
Good but started hearing crackling noises.
I got this for my boyfriend. He had one exactly the same as this before but it broke so I got him this one, it’s fine at some points but he’s started to complain that he hears crackling noises on his games. When he’s in a party chat with his mates it does it then too with the crackling noise. Don’t know why it’s making the crackling noise, how do I contact seller?
Great headphones with mic. Work flawlessly on PS4.
I was getting fed up with buying cheap headphones that my son manages to break somehow. He’s very good with his stuff, and isn’t heavy handed, but I bought 4 sets last year alone. These were not much more expensive than the generic brand ones, but being Turtle Beach, they are a cut above. Very nice quality, and extremely good sound and mic response. I’ll update the review if they break or go faulty, but so far these are the best we’ve ever had.
Childproof so far!
While these haven’t been here too long, I can say that this headset has so far stood up to the abuse that my son has given it so far, it’s been dropped, kicked (accidentally) and genuinely mistreated despite my protestations, but still they continue to work great.
The sound quality isn’t biblical, but for the price point they represent excellent value for money
Good headset , mic perfect sound perfect only problem is the ear cushions are not as soft as the previous I used to own , their padding isn’t enough and start to hurt your ears after 30-40 mins of gaming!! Apart from that rest of its working fine and good sound quality!
Great purchase. Only problem? Surround sound.
HONEST REVIEW: This is a tidy headset for the price that it is currently at. The sound quality is good and my friends could hear me well on our PS4 party chat. There is great comfort and adjustability of the headphones and the long story short is that these headphones get the job done!
However, there is little to no surround sound unless you really increase the volume and even at that it is still mediocre and at that volume it will just end up damaging your ears over time. At the same time though, you have to remember that this is a pair of headphones on the cheaper side of things so if you’re willing to compromise surround sound for just a regular sound then this is a great purchase for you but if you need that surround sound that blocks you out of the world and gives you that immersive experience when playing…then there are probably better products on the market.
Good Quality
I have to say considering the price these are very good quality. Brought them for my nephew for Christmas to go with his PS5 and they work really well. Sound quality is really good. The microphone quality is very good, it doesn’t pick up much background noise. He uses them for streaming on YouTube and he’s very happy with them.
The sound quality is very good, you can turn it up or down with the little twister at the back, my only problem is thta it sometimes can hurt my head as the bar at the top presses into my head. Maybe I just need to make it a bit bigger. oVerall a great value for money and is really comfortable on my ears.
Comfortable and clea
I bought these for my boyfriend, by a recommendation from my brother. My brother has had these for well over a year now and uses them almost every night to game with his friends.
Once my boyfriend plugged them in, his friends were amazed at the clarity. They are comfortable and they can be adjusted.
Great headsets for the price
Bought two of these headsets for my sons as stocking fillers and neither were disappointed. Turtle Beach is a brand I know to trust and these budget friendly headsets are perfect for my boys and their online gaming. They do everything they’re supposed to, the sound quality is decent and there’s a good level of noise cancellation. I’d recommend these to anyone.

Absolutely fantastic with wireless controllers
I had this now since October (it’s December now) for three months, it’s exceptionally comfortable, 6 hour gaming sessions and I do not get tired of wearing it so that’s great (if like me you’re used to terrible cheap ebay headsets) , my friends say the audio from the mic is pretty good, and the surround audio from the headset is pretty good, the only weakness is that I use a PowerA spectrum wired controller and some games really make the mic make weird noises, but with standard wireless headsets it’s perfectly good, would buy again, no problems with connectivity and has not broke
Decent budget headset, wouldnt want it as my daily driver though.
Bought this as a spare headset whilst I waited for a replacement bluetooth headset and for if either my headset or my girlfriends needs charging and for 25 quid you cant really go wrong. The comfort is the only thing I can knock and the only reason it didnt get 5 stars but for such a small price tag and when its used as a spare its not much of a concern to me, I would like to add my head is on the larger size so that is the reason for the discomfort I imagine.

For the price I was totally surprised with the quality
Fit excellent
Camouflage colouring is great.
Connectivity easy
Sound very clea
Great gaming headphones
Brought for my son’s 15th birthday, he loves them, great quality and arrived quickly
Solid headse
Good all around headset in terms of comfort, functionality and usage. Bit disappointed with the quality of the sound as at the price point would expect a bit more.
Mute function is on the microphone (swing it up past ear to mute) which takes a bit getting used to but is good.
No complaints from others with regards to the mic quality which is essential for team play.
Decent enough for cheap headphones. I use them a lo
Turned up with only one side working. The wire wasn’t soldered on. I’ve heard these can suffer with poor build quality. However rather than return it and cause more plastic waste, I fixed it in 10 mins with a soldering iron. I guess if you want better quality, don’t buy cheap headphones.
Still now they are working I use them a lot for gaming and the work well. Had some issues with the mic mute, turns out I wasn’t folding it away completely (which mutes it), I think an inline mute would be better. Overall 7-8/10 they are a bit plasticy but great for entry level
It does work with Switch and Fortnite
I was a little skeptical as view differ about compatibility with Nintendo Switch and Fortnite. I checked the manufacturer website and helpful guide and went ahead and purchase and there was no problem what so ever. My son was straight back on the game giving orders. It will work with Nintendo Switch and Fortnite and you just need to read the guidance on settings if you have difficulties. Product quality looks fine but time will tell.

Quality headset for a bargain price
Really pleased with this headset, was half expecting I’d find it wouldn’t connect to my PS4 controller and was really pleased that the plug fit perfectly. Never had an issue with Turtle Beach headsets when I have bought them for my Xbox’s and for the price this is great value for your money.
Great sound, Beware PC users.
I do love these headphones. Absolutely fantastic sound for the price you pay. Microphone seems to work perfectly too.
They lost a star in my book for the cable they use, which isnt a huge issue at all if you’re a console gamer. I am a PC gamer, which these headphones are marketed for (i.e. its in the product headline) and they don’t tell you that a splitter is required for their use on PC. The cable is quite short, so with my desktop PC on the ground I needed to get a cable extension. So that was two extra cables I needed to buy myself, just to use them.
Good for a budge
Good headphones if your on a budget, they seal on your ears really well with no outside noise whatsoever.
Comfortable to wear and good quality
These were for my son and having tried them on myself I know that they are very comfortable to wear.
My son has had problems with other headphones with a mic before and constantly broke them but with this one the mic pulls back to the ear meaning he doesnt need it out all the time.
The sound quality from the mic and headphones and really good too.
Would defo recommend to anyone.
Good for the price but broke within 5 months
Been using these in my pc for my work meetings during lockdown. When working can’t fault them however they’ve started to suffer the dreaded issue of one headphone cutting out if the wire is a certain way after 5 months. For me, that’s fine it was just a cheap solution, however these are sat on my desk all the time not being abused and this happened within 5 months, I can’t imagine then, that they would last long in a child/teens room when theyre putting them on and off playing games
Good product and delivery
They can in gd time, my son really likes it, he uses them all the time
Works well on both my pc and xbox for over 2 months now
Positives:
Easy to use.
No need for any adaters to use it for diferent devices.(except pc as you would need an adapter to use the mic aswell)
Sound quality is good and is comfortable enough to keep on for several hours.
Negatives:
The cable is a bit thin which means it could be broken easily so i have to be quite carefull with it.
You can slightly hear the audio coming from the headphones through the mic but s not very noticible.
Overall i would give this headset a 8/10.
Amazing
This headset was definitely worth the price for your average gamer this is a perfect headset!!
Great value headse
My grandson has a habit of destroying most of the default headphones that have come with the consoles so we wanted something a little robust but not so cheap as to be of bad quality. This headset came recommended and I can say that it seems to have worked. It’s robust, the cable is of a decent quality and his voice comes over clearly when in a game with him. He reports that they are comfortable over an hour of constant wear and this is all we can ask. Obviously the plastic of the covering is a little cheap but, for the money, these are a good value headset and so far have survived my grandso
I was just about to return this headset because I thought the mic wasn’t compatible with the Nintendo Switch for Fortnite in-game chat. It is, but you need to change your settings. Open Fortnite, then Settings, then Audio, check that Voice Chat is ‘on’, then select Voice Chat Method and ensure it’s ‘Open Mic’. Press the X button to Apply these changes. Power Off or Restart your Switch.
I don’t understand why there weren’t pairing instructions in the box; I had to find a YouTube video to help me.
Ok for its money but missing some good bits
It’s like what they say you get what you pay for the money you pay they work great compared to my last headset I found it not so good on enemy’s sneaking up on u. Or more precise position on them.comfort wise pretty good spent 5hrs straight and didn’t find it annoying me. As far as the mic goes the small plastic arm on it is a clever idea as a simple push up and turns it off but to shot to reach the mouth so you find yourself shouting louder, for the money it does the job good
The short mic,and sound quality is small let down even the fact that it’s not as loud as my previous one ,,but I would definitely think about looking out for better model next soon I think ,,hope this helps you all .
Turtle Beach Recon 70P Gaming Headset Review - Brillia
When I was in search of a new headset, Turtle Beach came to mind quickly as I had previously had one of their headsets.
With the budget in mind, this headset had fit in perfectly, so I bought one quickly as I had just broken my previous headset.
When it had arrived, I was surprised by the small factor of the headset, not disappointed, just surprised. Even though the headphones fit perfectly, they are still small compared to the other headsets I’ve owned.(might want to look out for that)
After a few months of usage though, they still work amazing and I’ve had no problems with them so far.
I fully recommend these headphones with anyone who has a small budget in mind.
I bought these for my husband so I didn’t have to listen to his friends come through the tv when playing Fifa… they work…. I can no longer hear his friends talking about what the wife cooked them for dinner or jokes about Carole Baskin.
The downside is my husband has turned into an absolute fog horn!!! I have no idea why but he looses the ability to talk like a normal person when wearing these. He has to shout, extremely loud, so loud that the neighbours can hear. He assured me the headphones were not broken and it’s just him. He’s broken, If id bought him off amazon I’d 100% be requesting a refund.
Me and the neighbours have all come to learn that he is a terrible fifa player and swears a lot.
I hope this helps
Great value and good audio
Good sound quality and mic works well. Would be useful to have a toggle near the controller for turning mute on and off. Surprisingly good noise isolation as I can’t really hear what it going on in the house when I’m playing with game audio through the headphones. Makes a huge difference for games like PUBG or COD where you need to have spatial audio to workout which direction a noise is coming from.

Not a lot to say tha these are amazing for the price! You can’t go wrong with them!
The headset is comfy but they do feel plasticy, at the moment they feel durable, but this is expected from Turtle Beach!
The cable of the headset is a silicone/plasticy design and there are 2 cables hanging from the headset sides whete you extend or close the headset sides which could be an issue. Futhermore the headset it great for gaming! I use them for my PS4 to chat with people and I have asked everyone of the quality of the mic and they have said that the quality is amazing and some have said they sound like an expensive mic/headset.
The mic also have a mute feature, but to do this you have to move the mic all the way back (you can see the image/instructions on how to mute the mic)
Overall these are amazing for the price range!

Does the job and does it well
I had been looking for a headset and mic for my nintendo switch for a while and then i found this one. It appeared to be the only proper headset to work on switch so i thought i would give it a try and i am glad to say that i am very happy with my purchase. It looks, sounds and feels great and its well worth the money. I bought it to play on fortnite with my friends and the mic works great so i can finally talk to them whilst i play. They said i sound clear and crisp so this is a win for me. My only criticism is that the cable is quite short but it doesn’t bother me much because i play with the switch minipad. It also works on mobile! This is a great product and for the price you really cannot argue.
Stopped working for Fortnite on Xbox. None of the fixes in their articles work, yet still strongly promoting this headset as great for Fortnite.
Assume they know there’s a problem as they are pumping out a lot of “fixes” for this issue on Twitter (again none of which have helped).
Also online support form doesn’t submit at the moment. Why not put up a message saying you aren’t accepting messages and save us the trouble of filling out a form only for the submit button not to work (tried in several different browsers too! what a waste of time!)
In short, don’t bother.
EDIT: Eventually got help from their support who were very helpful in getting them working. It was a fix that wasn’t in any of the online posts. I have increased the review score to reflect this.
Not too bad at all...
Not too bad at all.
These Turtle Beach Headphones come in at a blooming good price and look and feel great. The quality of the unit itself is super and they are nice to wear.
I would say that the sound quality is a solid 5 or 6 out of 10. Honestly nobody will say they are great because they simply are not. Especially if you are listening to music or have a film on… but for call of duty they are perfectly fine.
If you want a good looking and comfortable headset then these are great.
Want quality sound then look elsewhere.

I bought these for when I am recording my YouTube gaming channel videos via my Samsung S8 and playing on the PS4.
Regards to the microphone. I found my recordings to be much clearer and crisper than they were with my previous headset. I’m not the loudest speaker and the microphone has no problems picking me up. It is also great when gaming on my PS4.
The sound in the earphones is also fantastic. When platjng Fortnite I could hear everything far more clearly than my other headphones. For anyone having issues connecting to the PS4. It’s not.plug and play. You have to go into settings and devices to set it up.
But yes…very pleased with my purchase. My recordings are far better than they were before.
Update:
I’m now coming to the end of April and they’re still working brilliantly. They are well made, with great sound. I use them a lot, because of recording for my channel. I think they’re amazing quality, given the price. I even have them tagged in my video descriptions and recommend them to anyone looking for a good headset that want break the bank.
Fantastic Sounds
Excellent pair of headphones, plugged straight into my xbox one s controller and worked. I reviewed these on Utube and most said they were bad quality (compared to their 500 pair I’m sure they are) highly recommended. Personally I have dolby atmos downloaded to enhance sound quality and its noticeably better.
couldn't ask for a more
urtle beach headphones all have a good rep. I purchased these ones for the value for money and I have a younger brother who games online none stop and he suggested this pair. Been using them for a month and there really good especially since you can use them late night and turn the sound of the tv to keep the neighbours happy. sounds good, comfy pair and sturdy too. also the mic doesn’t detach so you don’t end up losing it lol

Nice headset at a good price poi
Does everything you want from a gaming headset. The mic is clear and well positioned (the lift-up-to-mute functionality is a nice touch), ideal for screaming about the spawn-camper that’s killed you a dozen times in a row.
The headphones themselves are a little tighter than I generally like, but I hav quite a large head, so that’s more on me. Sound quality is good, and they block a fair amount of external noise too, reallyletting you hear what those teenagers online are saying about your parentage and skills at the current game.
Bought for my son to use on his switch and PS4. They plug straight into both controllers and work but to get these working to there full potential on PS4 they require the usb lead that plugs into the PS4. Luckily we still had the one that came with the older set.i have actually used them myself recently while I wait my own stealth 700s arriving to play the new Cod and I’m actually very surprised how good they are. With these not actually having the surround sound I could hear where players were coming from good enough I actually think the 700s will be a waste.if your a casual gamer I highly recommend these for the price they are 90 cheaper than the 700s and work great!!

Great gaming experience
Bought these for my grandson who is an avid gamer on both Xbox and Playstation. His feedback on these is the sound is crystal clear and volume fantastic. He says the microphone is excellent also and really clear, however, the product loses a star because it has no mute button. Other than that, he says they look really smart and is over the moon and at 26, so am I … highly recommend, buy with confidence.
I bought these to replace my office Wireless Sony Gold headphones. This turtle beach headset connects directly to the control. Although you lose the surround sound trickery found with the Sony head set, I was hard pushed to tell the difference. The mic volume is much better and the quality of the sound was decent.
In short, for the money, this is great value.
Gave these to my 6 year old grandson and he loves them, he’s always breaking the mic on them but this one you can tuck away onto the side of the head set and it saves it from getting broken, he says the quality of them are really good, his friends can hear him clearly and he can hear them clearly too.
When I was in search of a new headset, Turtle Beach came to mind quickly as I had previously had one of their headsets.
With the budget in mind, this headset had fit in perfectly, so I bought one quickly as I had just broken my previous headset.
When it had arrived, I was surprised by the small factor of the headset, not disappointed, just surprised. Even though the headphones fit perfectly, they are still small compared to the other headsets I’ve owned.(might want to look out for that)
After a few months of usage though, they still work amazing and I’ve had no problems with them so far.
I fully recommend these headphones with anyone who has a small budget in mind.
Bought for my Son to use with his Xbox. He loves them for online gaming with friends. The microphone being able to be moved out of the way is a good feature. They look good and my Son hasn’t complained about anything with them so far so win, win for me. They were a good price too.
Bought for my son. Good value for money..was more expensive in the shops.
