Excellent Value – For Entry-Level Gaming Headset
For this price point, I can’t say anything less than 5 stars for this headset. I was originally going to go with a different product until seeing that the Ear Force Recon 50(X) series, was to release on 9/25/15. I decided to give it a try, and figured why not. For $40 it seemed like a steal!For the most part, it is a steal.PROS:–The headset itself is good looking, at first I thought the green would be a little off-putting compared to the color of my other accessories and peripherals, but it actually looks really great. Of course, this part is subjective.–Very lightweight. This thing only weighs a few ounces, and other than the light sensation of the cups on your ears, you could not even know you have it on.–The mic is detachable, which is awesome.–Further, the mic sounds great. It picks up my voice with a pretty good clarity for an entry-level gaming headset, and the attached covering of the mic essentially works as a pop filter. In fact, I have a fan blowing right by me and it manages to cancel the vast majority of the wind rushing into it from the fan. Solid mic.–The sound is pretty good. Bass and highs are on par for this price point, with the mids being the weakest link of the sound stage. For music and movies it is probably not the best choice, although it would still work more than adequately for those uses. Gaming is where it really shines, and the sound quality is more than good enough for my gaming needs. Footsteps are defined, gunshots and explosions sound great, and voices and dialog sound just fine.–Adaptability and Connectivity: It connects to the Xbox One controller that has the 3.5mm plug-in, and works on any Xbox One controller with the Turtle Beach or Microsoft headset adapter. My controller has the plug directly on it, so it works flawlessly without the need of an adapter. Further, it includes an adapter to change the mic/headphones to two separate plugs and I tested it on my PC and it works great for both sound and mic as well. Even though it is marketed as an Xbox One headset, it works just fine on PC and my iPhone. I don’t have a PS4 to try it on, but I would imagine it would work just fine.CONS:–Like mentioned above, the sound is pretty much on par. Nothing special and certainly doesn’t blow your mind with audio fidelity. However for this price range I can’t imagine it gets much better. Mids could be a bit better with frequency range.–The cord is rather short. Granted, this model is targeted specifically towards the Xbox One, so plugging it into the controller with the cord length is more than enough, and nice because you don’t have a huge bundle of cord on your lap when it is plugged into your controller. However, for use with a PC or other device you might need to purchase a 4 pole 3.5mm extension cable to make it a bit longer. I managed to find several on Amazon for a few bucks, so if this is a problem for you I would recommend going the extension cable route instead of disregarding this headset.OVERALL:I rated 5, but would probably give closer to a 4.5. For $40 (current price at time of writing, the day this headset has been released), it is a great deal. I am very happy with it, and use it as my main headset for my Xbox now, and a backup for my PC. Very comfortable, lightweight, sound is more than adequate in terms of quality, and it works with a multitude of devices. For gaming, it is just an all-around great entry-level headset.

WORTH IT!!
I recently bought 2 of these headsets for my son and I, and I have to say, they exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is phenomenal, with deep bass and clear highs that make every game feel immersive.The headset is also incredibly comfortable, even during long gaming sessions. The ear cushions are soft and breathable, and the adjustable headband ensures a perfect fit. The built-in microphone is crystal clear, making communication with teammates seamless.Another great feature is the durable build quality. It feels sturdy and well-made, so Iâm confident it will last for a long time. Plus, the sleek design gives it a stylish edge.Overall, this headset is a fantastic investment for any gamer looking for top-notch audio quality, comfort, and durability. Highly recommended!

Pretty nice!!
I like these headphones very affordable for my budget mic is pretty good but can be loud for others sometimes (I do this to mess with my friends lol) I donât know if itâs my controller thatâs doing this but sometimes my microphone just doesnât register sometimes or just stops working (mainly think this is from my controller) but wanted to add it just in case if it isnât over amazing headphones

Great Value for the Price – My Son Loves Them!
I purchased these Turtle Beach Recon 50 Wired Gaming Headset for my son, and he’s been very happy with them. The sound quality is good, and he appreciates the detachable mic for when he doesn’t need it. The noise-canceling feature helps him focus on the game without distractions.The headset is compatible with multiple platforms, which is a big plus. The build quality seems decent, and they’re comfortable to wear for extended gaming sessions. Overall, I’m very pleased with this purchase and would recommend them to other parents looking for a good quality gaming headset for their kids.

Good price and quality
For the price of this headset and not looking for anything fancy I think this is one of the better options. It fits well. Sounds great and is very easy to use! Happy with the product overall!

Phenomenal bang for your buck!
I primarily used this headset for gaming online with friends. The detachable mic is great for when you want to eat without worrying about getting food on the mic or if you want to lay down to watch a movie. They’re incredibly durable and comfortable. I sleep with them on, since I have a cat who thinks he’s a rooster and will wake me up too early. These headphones lasted me over a year. I came back to order more, because I wanted a clean, new pair. I’ll keep coming back every couple years to get a fresh set as long as they’re being offered, especially at this price! Amazing entry level headphones for gaming and more.

Terrible sound input and output
I wasn’t expecting much for the price point. That said, I didn’t get much either.These are terribly uncomfortable to wear. I’ve been told that the mic is choppy and tinny. The sound is thin and doesn’t have clarity. The frequencies are muddy. I often wear around my neck and use my stereo monitor speakers while I use the mic.The upside is that the controls are nice. It’s easy to turn up or down, and mute your mic.This is also an entry-level gaming headphone set. So again, don’t expect much.Lastly, the cord is very short. I can’t use these with my laptop on my desk and sit comfortably without pulling on the cord. I tried to use an extender, but the microphone is rendered useless. It will not work with a 1 ft extender.I don’t think I would buy again or recommend to others.

Penso di aver scelto le migliori da far usare a un ragazzino.I colori ricordano molto la Switch.Sono robuste, comode, e il suono è decisamente ottimo. Sono abbastanza grandi da farci stare dentro anche le orecchie di un adulto, perciò perfette. Il microfono può essere smontato, se non serve, questo è ottimo.à stato un regalo di Natale che ha resfo felice un bimbo. Straconsiglio!!

Ich habe mir das Headset für meine PS4 gekauft, da mein altes ein On-Ear-Headset war und somit bei längeren Sessions unangenehm wurde.Meine Erfahrungen mit Turtle Beach waren bis jetzt immer sehr positiv und das hat sich auch bei diesem Produkt nicht geändert. Obwohl ich auf das verstärkte Stereo verzichtet habe, da ich wirklich nur gelegentlich spiele, finde ich, dass man trotzdem in den meisten Spielen (v.a. Ego-Shootern) trotzdem sehr gut ausmachen kann, wo ein gegnerischer Spieler sich befindet.Auch längere Gaming-Sessions sind damit möglich, da das Headset sehr weich und angenehm zu tragen ist. Das Over-Ear-Design trägt einen wesentlichen Teil zum Tragekomfort bei.Zum Mikrofon ist zu sagen, dass die Soundqualität besser ist, als bei so manchen â¬100 Headsets. Zudem kann man das Mikro ausstecken, wenn man es nicht braucht. Am Kabel ist ein Lautstärkeregler sowie ein Mute-Switch angebracht, was ich ideal finde, da man dadurch nicht immer zu den Einstellungen muss, um die Lautstärke zu verändern oder sein Mikrofon stumm zu schalten.Was ich besonders gut an den Ear Force Recon 50P finde ist, dass man einen normalen 3,5mm Kopfhöreranschluss hat, den man einfach am Controller ansteckt. Das macht es leichter, wenn man weiter von der Playstation sitzt oder wenn man sich kurz samt Controller bewegt. AuÃerdem stolpert niemand über ein Kabel zwischen Sofa und Fernseher. Des Weiteren konnte ich kein Audio-Delay feststellen, was dieses Headset umso besser macht.Für knapp â¬30 ist das meiner Meinung nach das beste Headset, dass man casual Gaming kaufen kann. Klare Kaufempfehlung.
