Good for gaming and good for Lot’s of things
I use this project everyday and it works like crazy, you can listen to music with this you can play games with this YOU CAN DO ANYTHING with this project. So if you want a great headphones then get this you won’t regret i
Great headse
I purchased for my son as he goes through alot of headsets, these are great, looks good and the sound quality it great too, they arrived on time and I would definitely recommend
These are ok.
Comfort is ok.
Sound is ok.
Mic quality is ok.
Bass is lacking a bit but I don’t think you will get much better for the price. I did. Buy at a discount. I would many have been that happy at full price as I do like better sound, but I was being tight.
I don’t play online that much so I use a pair of Sennheiser headphones most of the time. When I do play online i use these and game sounds are not as important as the speech and that is clear both ends.
So, overall Ok.
Good headse
I have had no problems with this headset. Works as described.
Sound quality A+
Love the sound quality of this headset I use for playstation 4 games, highly recommended
Aspie joy
This is a brilliant product. Works on multi gaming platforms. Kids all love it… have had to re purchase. Successful buy for my aspi teens.
Good value for money, Good Produc
I upgraded my previous turtle beach headset to these and what an improvement! the sound quality is slightly better but the big improvement is in the microphone which is more handy that the previous models and the volume control which is discretely located on the left ear cover. My previous ones lasted me a couple of years and still counting but I will use these for zoom meetings 🙂

Good solid headset. Son used daily, mic gave up after 14 months due I think to an issue with the cable – so decent for the money but dont expect it to last more than 12-18 months of heavy use.
Good budget headse
Does the job and has a good mic, if you really play seriously then you will need an Astro headset to not be at a disadvantage though
Worth Every Penny
I’ve had so many headphones which have been rubbish but finally, a pair that shut out all other noise and are fantastically clear. Wonderful. Amazing. Buy them.

I'm satisfied
I already have one professional headphones for 100+ pounds and this one I buy just to use microphone during online class. So I didn’t expect too much. So I used it 2 days and what I can say:
1. there is noise cancellation and my students confirmed it
2. size of headphones not that big and don’t cover my ears completely
3. music quality is good but not perfect (well it’s only 25 pounds guys)
4. mic is working fine with windows plug and play
5. not sure about plastic looks a bit cheap but I hope it would be fine in general
overall – good headphones but not perfect, for it’s price is ok!

Great value headset for our Xbox Series X
This headset works a treat and is of great value.
Both my son (10 years) and I use it, so it suits children and adults alike. The cord is long enough and the fitting is quite comfortable.
My only criticism is that the volume control on the headset is limited. On some occasions, I think the volume on the Xbox is a little too low for my liking.
Having said that, this is great value and we are very happy with i
Easy listening..
Comfortable, affordable and make a huge difference listening to enemy footsteps ( ie I play xbox )… I’ve even used them on my phone to answer a call ( which works wonders to )

Broke
Bought this product for a Christmas present..My son also has the same headset..On both headsets the microphone has broke..If you want to putthe microphone up against the headset it starts to loosen the screw inside that holds it to the headset..You can’t then screw the arm of the microphone back on as you can’t get inside the headset leaving them useless.
am also unable to get in touch with the sellers to return this headset is not cheap..Not happy

PERFECT
ABSOLUTELY A GREAT PRODUCT!! I was a little bit sceptical looking @ the reviews but it’s a great headset, if you take care with it it hasn’t snapped or broken. The volume isn’t as loud as others but you know “c’est la vie”

Surprisingly excelle
For the price I was expecting less honestly.
I had a very good gaming headset double the price of this one, aaaaand I broke it. Couldn’t justify buying another so i got this to tide me over.
Pros:
-The mic quality is just as good as my old headset.
-Its a fairly comfortable set, not as comfy as my old pair but perfectly usable even for long periods.
Cons:
-no button or switch on the headset to mute your mic quickly
-the audio is good, it’s just not as good as my old headset. The directional quality of it especially is a step down, which is notable in FPS games where direction of sound matters.
Overall, a solid headset. And for the price point its undeniably the best about.

For the price, it has good sound, long wire, high quality microphone, and ergonomic. Only downside is that the foam at the top where it rests on your head is quite thin so after a couple of hours wearing it does become uncumfortable.
Great budget optio
I bought this to just play online with friends and it’s kept me going for ages I get a lot of use out of them and they still work just great. I’ve literally just bought the Arctis 7x which are much more expensive, but the Recon 70X we’re good and worked just fine on PS, Xbox, Switch and in work calls. The sound quality isn’t bad, fine for this price range, however if you want to get more immersive audio for this new generation of consoles then you’ll definitely want to look at the more expensive options

Good Gaming headphones
Brought these headphones as a like for like replacement. The previous pair developed a fault with the microphone but we had had them several years and they had served us well. Very comfortable to wear and good sound quality for the price paid. I would recommend.

All round good apart from no mute button.
Also just plugs straight to xbox one s pad without an adapter.
Great competitor for ps ones
Great price got these in tead of ps4 ones after they kept busting ,these are way better and last way longer ,why spend so much on genuine when these work grea
Fantastic
I have been using turtle beach for 1 year now. And i decided to get the same headset after 70 recon. My old one still works but not as great however the price is worth it for 1 whole year. Recommended for sure
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

Stopped working after 9 months but replaced
I originally gave these a 5 star rating, but have changed in down to a 4 star as they have stopped working after 9 months. I contacted amazon who sent out a replacement for the product and i have a happy 10 year old again.
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

Cheap, and cheerful.
Put simply, a cheap end of a good manufacturer. They do the job well, but you can see where the money has been saved.
I worry about plastic parts breaking, but so far it has endured the kids.
Happy for now!

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!

🤩
I love the feature of lifting up the mic to mute and and the headphones sit comfortably on your ears and the sound is crisp and clea
These were good for the price I got the green camo ones the volume is on the rear of the left earpiece, although I had turtle beach ones before meant i could use the xbox controller adapter that came with the last headphones for the volume
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
excellent quality
comfortable nice touch you can move the microphone to your own personal use
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.
microphone fell off.
a internal screw somehow came loose and now the microphone has fallen off and is being held on only by a wire. only brought the item 2 months ago and am unable to return it. not happy.

Works well , no issues , week Base and Max Volume
For thebprice it’s a good value. Works fine with any 3.5m jack device
Glad to see the Mic Monitoring works on my XBOX
The sound is good , the max volume is not the highest, the base is not that deep. Not the most comfortable to wear for hours but maybe it’s me who have large ears . But again it can’t be compared with other 50+ headsets.

Realy good head set, our granddaughter is realy please with this item.
Great buy.
Bought for my sons birthday, works a treat. Great value.
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.

Not amazing but very good
Very nice headset for the price, sounds good and is reasonably comfortable.
Not amazing but for the price, they’re definitely worth it.
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?
