> 3 dayFirst off I want to say how thrilled I was to finally get these. I found out about these because I was looking at someones stream and they got off topic from gaming and started bragging on the ASTRO A20 Headset. The only thing was he had them using PlayStation and I said to myself those look really nice and comfy and its also Wireless and if only I could get them for Xbox id look into it... So I went to Amazon after and long story short I just received them and Im just amazed... Hands Down Best Wireless Gaming Headset Ive ever owned and they feel really really good. This marked all checks in what I think is important in Gaming Headsets

> 3 dayIm going to start off with the two redeeming qualities of this headset before I get to the many reasons I will be returning it. The sound quality despite it not having surround sound capabilities is very nice and it is very comfortable to wear for long periods of time (10+hrs). Now, the microphone is extremely quiet and even with software to add gain and the device volume on my PC turned all the way up people still have trouble hearing me and sometimes the bug that makes you louder after you mute and unmute is enough for me to be able to communicate and sometimes it isnt. The boom microphones position doesnt stay in one place when set and requires constantly being moved so it doesnt sit on your face or at least directly under your nose. Youd think that having an app on your phone for fine tuning wouldnt be bad but not having the option for PC also just adds extra problems when the headset just decides to disconnect from your phone (which no other blue-tooth device that I own does) OR your microphone just randomly mutes itself with no reliable way to unmute it. Muting itself is rare but still unacceptable and not only does it mute but also randomly stops making sound while still being turned on and sending a microphone signal AND if you think turning it on and back off again will solve it as it does with a lot of things SOMETIMES IT WONT TURN OFF OR BACK ON and sometimes when you unplug the USB and plug it back in the microphone still wont work and I dont mean not work for specific programs I mean in windows devices where it only shows up because it is connected there will be no sound level for the microphone and Ive yelled directly into it just to be sure it wasnt just so low it wasnt picking it up. Those are the reasons I am returning this headset but they arent even the only problems, just the ones that make it unusable and unreliable on a constant basis and when reaching out to Amazon I was told to contact Astro and Astro has not sent a single email about it other than the automated email confirming that the support ticket had been made and I have waited twice the amount of time that they claim to respond in and there has been no mention of higher than usual requests to let anyone know that their response time may take longer. The other problems are that it isnt surround sound which Id expect from a headset this expensive, while using the microphone on my phone it wont be usable on my PC, a bug that decreases the headsets volume a large amount when changing the volume on my phone up or down but increases the volume by the same large amount when changing the volume directly on the headset so you need to play with changing them both for your desired volume which is really annoying to do when answering calls, and the loud sounds it makes when it turns on, off, connects, or disconnects from anything that you cant control the volume of but when the battery levels are low (rare as that may be) the sound indicating that isnt as loud, and the range for both blue-tooth and USB connection could stand to be a bit longer but that is probably the least of complaints to have with the plethora of problems above.

Greater than one weekI bought these to use for my PS5 and PC. The Dongle doesnt know if it is plugged into a Console or PC and you have to toggle with the button to the correct color immediately after plugging it in. I wasnt able to test it on my PS5, but when using it on my PC, my mic would disappear and couldnt be found. The instructions for what color is what is in picture format only and printed in black and white. I thought that it might be a firmware issue and found that it didnt have the latest firmware installed and every installation attempt failed. I was looking at getting away from turtle beach and thought this would be a good alternative. I was way off the mark for a $120 Price tag.

Greater than one weekI have a hard time finding a headset that’s comfortable for extended use. I work from home and play games quite a bit. I love the ability to plug and play from my PC to my Xbox without the hassle of wires. It’s super comfortable to wear during meetings and extended gameplay. No complaints so far regarding sound and mic quality. Highly recommend .

> 3 dayI like how guys did they work! That was my mistake. Headset is nice but it doesn’t have a noise cancellation.

> 3 dayIve been having so many issues with this headset that its pretty impossible to recommend. Hopefully this is all stuff that can be addressed in firmware updates, but at the moment this headset is a headache to deal with on PC. Some issues include: -Mic not working on PC when woken from sleep, requiring me to turn it on and off (takes several seconds to turn off, several to shut down, and several to boot up) -Mic goes incredibly quiet. Sometimes muting and unmuting fixes this, but not always -Sometimes the headset gets stuck on. Once this happened while no audio was coming through them at any volume and the headset seemed just bricked until it turned off. I learned that holding down on the volume control stick while holding the bluetooth button will force the headset to reset. This wasnt on any websites or in the manual. Ive had to force the headset to reset several times a day. As I use the headset, Ive had to find work arounds for all of the quirks that come with it. I wouldnt wish that on anyone else. Im holding out for some fixes for now, but so far, no luck. It seems to work well enough on mobile through bluetooth and I havent tried it on consoles. but PC is a mess so far and that uses the same dongle as console, so who knows.

> 3 dayI liked that I’m able to use a headset without having to use wires. Just plug the usb receiver into the console or pc. Press the small button to change it on Xbox or pc. Green is for Xbox and white is for pc.
