  • First Impressions
Platform For Display: PlayStation 5, PlayStatio...
First impressions: -Nice packaging, everything is brand spanking new with really nice plastic peels. Awesome new smell too. -Connecting the headset to my PC with the included optical and USB A to Micro USB cables work instantly, all I needed to do was switch computer output to optical out for my sound card. -Did some preliminary testing with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare + Warzone. Sound profile is differently from my recent Sennheisers, will have to play around with EQ and Dolby Sound settings. Sound's fine, just a really wide soundstage compared to the Sennheisers with Dolby Sound on, which I'll be getting used to. -Its taking a long while to charge the headset by today's standards, where you can almost fully charge a smartphone in less than 45-minutes. ~25% in an hour is not bad for something that will sit on the charging base for like 16-18 hours out of each day, though. -Almost the same as my old Gen 1 Astro A50s, with some really nice improvements. I like the comfort and the removable foam on the ear cups and head band for easy cleaning/replacing. Also nice to have a button to switch EQ profiles on the fly. And I now have again my favorite feature from my old headset, the rocking right ear cup plate to balance game and chat audio I've had many headsets over the years, always tried to get something nice and comfortable for long sessions, and tried to go for the best quality+comfort+features balance I could find for my PC+PS4 desk setup. I've had these headsets over many years, and in this order: a Logitech G700, Corsair Vengeance 2000, a refurbished gen 1 Astro A50, cheap Logitech G33 when my Astro was stolen during travel, Steelseries Arctis 5, Sennheiser Game One, Sennheiser GSP500. Out of all these, the Astro A50s and both Sennheisers are easily above the rest, these three are high quality headsets with satisfying sound. Steelseries Arctis 5 is easily the most comfortable of the bunch, and had lots of really nice features, but a faulty proprietary connector and the bad customer service experience that followed turned me off their brand forever, even if Amazon made things right in the end when they didn't have to(Thanks Amazon!). I loved my old Astro A50s, and these feel like coming back home, with some really nice improvements. I like the removable foam on the ear cups and head band for easy cleaning/replacing. Also nice to have a button to switch EQ profiles on the fly. The charging base is also really nice to have, and the expected 15-hour battery life should make life much easier compared to the 3 hours I used to get on my old refurbished ones. I now have again my favorite feature from my old headset, the rocking right ear cup button to balance game and chat audio I'm really looking forward to enjoying my Astro A50s with my PC + PS4, and hopefully PS5 when it comes out. I'll be updating my review to reflect my user experience as time goes by, Especially if any issues pop up. ... show more

  • Absolute waste of money, your future self will hate you if you buy this.
Platform For Display: PlayStation 5, PlayStatio...
Do NOT buy this headset!! I've had this headset over a year, I use it everyday, and everyday I hate past me even more for buying this stupid overpriced thing. I'm usually not the type to complain and just keep trying but oh man, I hate this headset with such a passion and I look forward to it breaking so I can buy a new one. The speakers and mic are still working and I spent too much to not use it until it breaks but man I want it to break so bad. Within 1 week, the charging station wouldn't charge most of the time unless it was EXTREMELY carefully placed and not even the slightest bit bumped EVER. Within 1 month, it would no longer charge at all on the station, regardless of how it's placed. I have to unplug the base station and plug that cable directly into the headset, so I can not use the headset while it's charging. The battery is terrible. It has enough battery for 8 hours of game play, that's it. So if you've planning on long gaming sessions, you better make sure you have a backup because this thing WILL die at the most obnoxious times. It has 2 speaker modes, Voice and Gaming. And it will choose to randomly switch between them, with no warning. No I didn't bump the headset, it would just change modes so I'd have to tab out to change the speaker settings to the one it's changed to. The headband is absolutely horrific. It's super comfortable for about 3 months, then it will loosen and practically hang off your head and you can not tighten it again until it's had time to cooldown or something. There is a bridge connection at the top of the headset to connect the 2 beams, this has become unstuck on 1 side and will frequently detach and stab me in the top of the head. When this happens, the loosening of the adjustable head size gets even worse. TLDR: Great speaker/sound but the practical use of this headset will anger you forever. DO NOT BUY IT. ... show more
