Turtle beach headset single cup great if have kids or partner hear them too haha..value for money decent sound quality no issues in party chat no feedback or mic echo echo echo….
My near 10 year old son loves this headset. It had one headphone one side and a speaker Mike on the other. There is a gap in the headphone for those who wear glasses making it so much more comfortable wearing the headset over glasses. My son uses this for his PC and for his Nintendo switch. Thanks.
Not bad but the right side is a little painful on my head.
Left side is not great because it has a gap through the speaker cushion.
Audio is brillia
It is a cheap product but does not feel cheap.
Got it on sale, from the bad reviews I was thinking it is less than 5 so at worst I can use it as parts.
It fits over the ear, so no pressure and discomfort on your ear, and you can hear the game sound from the TV perfectly.
I did heat the plastic headband with almost boiling water to bend it into the shape I thought it should have been. That is the only negative for me, the packaging. it feels like the headset was jammed into a box that was a little too small for it, but that does not impact performance.
Despite the negative reviews the headset is actually comfortable, so comfortable that after 5-10 minutes of gameplay I forget it is on. People complain about the foam, it is not the mesh foam, but then again the foam they have used here does not soak up sweat, which is a real plus and an issue I have had with the mesh foam headsets in the past. The foam is hard but comfortable.
The only tweak I would suggest is a bit more volume. I have the headset volume on the PS4 outputs set to max for chat and max on the headset but it sounds a little quiet still. But then again it could be the volume on the mic from others.
If you need a chat headset you cannot go wrong with this. And at 5 on sale it is a bargain. Thinking of buying a second as a spare.
Not a bad chat headset. Only slight issue is the pads on the ear part of the headset they can dig in the jaw a little… maybe it’s the way I’m wearing it ?
Either way it’s a good basic headset and works!
Suited my two children for gaming, the only criticism I have is that the strap gets a little uncomfortable on the head after a short time but still good value and enough for kids that play occasionally.
I didn’t realise this only did chat and not game sound in the background, was bought as a gift who thought it was broken until we had a look and realised it was only game chat that could be heard. Aside from that it’s comfortable and the mic quality was ok
Not too heavy, they seems to do the job. I have bought them since i play some games where i need either to hear my team mates and the game and they work fine. I still have to see how long they will last since i bought them just yesterday. Only thing i’m not really happy the chat volume is not really high but anyway you should be able to set it from your console so is not a big del.
This was purchased so my son could play his games but also be able to hear us. And it has done exactly this. He can be on his console talking to his friends but also hear when we call for dinner or something similar. The headset is adjustable to head size and we felt a good price. Would certainly recommend
Cheap, million times better than the standard one you get with the ps4 (not hard I know)
BUT!!!!!……
people keep reviewing this item as having poor game sound.
I have to defend it, IT’S NOT FOR GAME SOUNDS
it’s solely for the mic and hearing your team mates voices, if you want a gaming head set to hear your ps4 exclusively through it, DON’T BUY A MONO HEAD SET!!
If you want a genuine great replacement for your ps4 mono mic head set, this is a great optio
The only-small complaint I have is that the 3.5 jack you connect to your XBOX controller has a right-angle connection. This means the wire points towards to where your fingers want to grip the pad and, well it gets in the way and you have to move it around quite a bit. – That’s, literally my only complaint with these headphones and that’s more a minor nuisance than a bonafide issue. So I’m still happy to rate these as 5-star.
