    345 customers mention "Comfort"271 positive74 negative

    Customers find the headphones comfortable and well-fitting. They mention they sound great, are snug at the ears, and don't hurt their ears or head after playing for a few hours. The compression over the ears helps cancel noise better, and the mute works well for them.

    "...They fit snug with good compression over you ears that cancels noise a bit better than the PS4/5 gold...." Read more

    1,087 customers mention "Sound quality"650 positive437 negative

    Customers have mixed opinions about the sound quality. Some find it clear and enhances gaming, with a microphone that is crystal clear. Others mention static sounds for 2-3 minutes at first, much quieter than expected, and confusing volume control while gaming.

    "...So I have just placed an order for a new set. I have had zero issues over the last 3 years,..." Read more

    "...really inconsistent and the mic was very frustrating in how it randomly quit working. I ditched the Battle Buds...." Read more

    "...mostly a preference thing but I find the volume confusing and hard to use while gaming...." Read more

    675 customers mention "Quality"364 positive311 negative

    Customers have mixed opinions about the headphones' quality. Some find them solid and long-lasting, with a solid mic and sound. Others mention issues like cheap material quality, falling apart after a short period of use, and flimsy construction.

    "...Volume control on the headset - Over-ear style - Sturdy" Read more

    "...Not bad quality though for the price. And I'm sure I was just unlucky with my piece. For the price it was worth it..." Read more

    "...I do think these are very durable EVEN THOUGH the audio jack has the fated audio fade with positioning...." Read more

    "...My only qualm with this product is the volume dial, which busted a little...." Read more

    376 customers mention "Mic functionality"190 positive186 negative

    Customers have different views on the mic functionality. Some find it good with good audio quality and no issues, while others say it doesn't pick up properly, is very sensitive, and needs to be shouted into for it to work. The flip feature to mute the mic is a nice addition.

    "...Likes: - Corded, no batteries! - Being able to pivot the mic out of the way - Volume control on the headset -..." Read more

    "...IMHO poor location for the controls." Read more

    "...is nice and large, doesn't squish my ears, and I like that the mic flips up to mute that is cool! 👍🏻..." Read more

    "...of wear and tear, with the ear cups feeling loose and the plastic creaking under pressure...." Read more

    193 customers mention "Fit"70 positive123 negative

    Customers have different experiences with the fit of the headphones. Some find them comfortable and adjustable for head length, fitting a wide range of head sizes from kids to adults. Others mention that the cap seems too small, the headset fits far too snug on their heads, squeezing against their ears, and the mic is too short. The cord length is not ideal for PC use, and the plastic material feels thin and weak.

    "Not made for an adult" Read more

    "...wear hats 7 1/4 and usually have glasses on when playing and the fit is pretty good...." Read more

    "Did not fit and was not adjustable. Worked but had to return." Read more

    "...Side by side the headset is slightly smaller and feels a little cheaper overall but still feels great and sounds great." Read more

    *UPDATE 3 years in* Better than PS4/5 Gold with daily use even with new issue at 16 months in
    **Update 3 years in**I wrote this review in 2022, after I had these for about 16 months and as I'm here BUYING ANOTHER SET in 2024, I thought I owed the company an update since they treated me so well, (my original review is unchanged below).UPDATE May 2024: I've had this pair since Feb 2021 and use them almost daily for hours at a time. Last night, they decided to retire and stopped working. This is no fault to the headphones, as I have logged over 3 years of use on a ps5 for both gaming and media. So I have just placed an order for a new set. I have had zero issues over the last 3 years, (they even recovered from the Destructo attack of my son almost 2 years), and could recommend them more.I am also increasing my rating to 5 stars because of how well they have treated me. I am pleased to see they are still available and haven't been discontinued. This is a no doubt must buy over any other model or brand.--(Below is original review)I bought these in Feb 2021 initially as a headset mainly for steam but also to backup my PS4/5 Sony Golds (they aren't Pulse 3D), but I quickly moved to only using these for PS5.APPEARANCE: the camo is very slick and I cabinet them when I'm not playing so no clash with the PS5 blancoFIT: I've got kind of a big head I guess, wear hats 7 1/4 and usually have glasses on when playing and the fit is pretty good. They fit snug with good compression over you ears that cancels noise a bit better than the PS4/5 gold. The cord plugs into the controller of course so I wouldn't want it any longer for sure.SOUND: you won't think you have Cowin or Beats on because the range doesn't compare but you won't notice. I play almost daily and I am not disappointed whatsoever. I also use them to watch movies/shows including Narcos, Loki, Mandolorian, Marvel, etc and the quality is not lost.VOICE SOUND: I've asked and have been told I sound clear and chat comes in clear.CONTROLS: what's nice about this over the PS Gold is that the mic arm folds back flush with the head phones which mutes the mic. In some games, the PS5 controller mute button will mute all audio instead of just the mic. There's only one volume control, so no independent chat control. Also, unlike the PS Gold headset, when this headset is plugged in, it doesn't auto-mute your sound system, so you'll have to manually turn it down to stop concurrent audio.DURABILITY: the photo attached was taken June 2022, 16 months after purchase with semi-daily use. I play and/or watch 5-7 nights a week for 2-4 hours a night, give or take and that's how they held up. My prior PS4 Gold headset before my current one looked like chop suey in the same amount of time. My Cowin headset (for Bluetooth audio on non-gaming devices), gets daily use as well and is barely holding on and I think Cowin is the best out there. I do think these are very durable EVEN THOUGH the audio jack has the fated audio fade with positioning. They still work and I don't know whether to fault the headphones wear and tear OR my son's Mr Incredible reenactment with them a week ago, (the problem started same night so probably me son).PRICE: a steal, plain and simple. Look at the above to confirm. I wouldn't buy any other headset if you're not going all out for a $100+ set.OVERALL: I'm writing this review as I am perusing Amazon for a new headset to replace these due to the issue above, even though my PS Gold are in "perfect" working order, which says a lot. The quality of this set has me deeply pondering getting this over the Pulse 3D not only for the price but also the performance compared to the PS Gold sets I've owned.

      I bought these in Feb 2021 initially as a headset mainly for steam but also to backup my PS4/5 Sony Golds (they aren't Pulse 3D), but I quickly moved to only using these for PS5.

      APPEARANCE: the camo is very slick and I cabinet them when I'm not playing so no clash with the PS5 blanco

      FIT: I've got kind of a big head I guess, wear hats 7 1/4 and usually have glasses on when playing and the fit is pretty good. They fit snug with good compression over you ears that cancels noise a bit better than the PS4/5 gold. The cord plugs into the controller of course so I wouldn't want it any longer for sure.

In some games, the PS5 controller mute button will mute all audio instead of just the mic. There's only one volume control, so no independent chat control. Also, unlike the PS Gold headset, when this headset is plugged in, it doesn't auto-mute your sound system, so you'll have to manually turn it down to stop concurrent audio.

      DURABILITY: the photo attached was taken June 2022, 16 months after purchase with semi-daily use. I play and/or watch 5-7 nights a week for 2-4 hours a night, give or take and that's how they held up. My prior PS4 Gold headset before my current one looked like chop suey in the same amount of time. My Cowin headset (for Bluetooth audio on non-gaming devices), gets daily use as well and is barely holding on and I think Cowin is the best out there. I do think these are very durable EVEN THOUGH the audio jack has the fated audio fade with positioning. They still work and I don't know whether to fault the headphones wear and tear OR my son's Mr Incredible reenactment with them a week ago, (the problem started same night so probably me son).

      PRICE: a steal, plain and simple. Look at the above to confirm. I wouldn't buy any other headset if you're not going all out for a $100+ set.

      OVERALL: I'm writing this review as I am perusing Amazon for a new headset to replace these due to the issue above, even though my PS Gold are in "perfect" working order, which says a lot. The quality of this set has me deeply pondering getting this over the Pulse 3D not only for the price but also the performance compared to the PS Gold sets I've owned.

      I recently bought the Turtle Beach Recon 70 Wired Headphones for my son, and they have been an absolute hit. These headphones deliver excellent audio quality with crisp, clear sound that truly enhances his gaming experience. The comfort level is superb—my son often wears them for extended periods without any complaints.

      The build is sturdy and well-made, making them a durable choice for daily use. The microphone is also top-notch, providing clear communication with friends during gameplay. Overall, we couldn't be happier with this purchase! Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality gaming headphones! Absolutely worth the money, no batteries needed and the lightweight and comfortable fit is amazing.

      I really like these earphones for gaming. They're lightweight and rest easy on my head. I can wear them for hours and my ears don't hurt. The sound quality is great too. The only real gripe that I have is that sometimes when online with my brother the sound cuts out and he can't hear me nor can I hear the in-game sound. I think it's with the connector or something in the cable but I'm not an engineer or electrical or whatever kind of person I'd need to be to know for sure.

      Other than my one simple gripe I feel that I got a great headset at a killer price that works really well for me. Now note: I am not a hardcore gamer but I do use this to play Borderlands 3. So I do game, but I only play a couple times a week.

      Pros: 
      Lightweight design doesn't weigh me down.
      The mic moves out of the way which is nice.
      The mic picks up my voice well.
      The speakers sound great.
      The mute works well for me.
      They don't hurt my ears or head after playing for a few hours straight.
      The cable is the right length. 
      The pricing for this is great!!

      Cons:
      Sometimes the sound cuts out.

      Work great for my 10yo kid who plays fort-nite with his buds, so the mic is quality for conversations. He also plugs into jack on his phone and uses it this way to listen to videos. He says they are comfortable and fit well, sound quality is good. Hes very happy.

      Sound quality is not great. Flip to mute mic is a cool feature. Volume control is not good either.

      Great for the money just what I needed, my old pair was shorting out and I needed new so I was gonna splurge on a name brand something but luckily I come across these and rolled the dice and they turned out perfect, I like how you can adjust for length for your head and also the ear part is nice and large, doesn't squish my ears, and I like that the mic flips up to mute that is cool! 👍🏻
