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.

These work great and they're not too tight on my fat head like every other headset is. Seriously, that's how I rate headsets now... does it give me a headache on my clownishly large round head? The sound quality is there; the mic is removable. Love the color, although I chose it. Works great with my Xbox, and connects to parties in Discord and PC. I don't even remember a setup; it was just plug and play. I could nit-pick and say that I get confused on the on/off switch, but I could just be an idiot. It's the classic light switch scenario; "Is the switch on when the word ON is showing, or when the word OFF is showing?", except it's an orange piece that is visible when you switch it. Is orange on or off? I never remember and in the dark, the tiny writing is illegible. It causes me to do constant sound checks if I'm having to cut my mic on/off constantly. (coughing, baby crying, etc.)

Amazing quality! Great sound. There is some sound canceling. The microphone volume isn't the greatest. You have to figure out the correct placement. To find and figure out the best placement for everything is an initial annoyance. These to me are worth the price paid.

I'm a HUGE fan of "low-end" turtle beach headsets, and I bought these to replace an aging pair of Ear Force PLa's that had served me faithfully for a long time (and still function very well, albeit thanks to a ton of tape work on damage I caused myself stupidly). Considering I paid only ten dollars more for these, the difference is staggering. As others note, they're not a top end headset, but for $40, do you really expect that? Sound is clear and crisp. Mic is clear and loud, without being overly sensitive (and the windscreen performs very well), and connects/disconnects easily... I'm actually using Dragon to type this with the mic in my laptops mic port! Some complain that the mic is inflexible, but I haven't found a position yet that it won't accept and stay with. I do, however, wish they had used the jacketing from the PLa line (ribbed, semi-metallic covering that allowed for total freedom of position) instead of the semi-hard, plastic-feeling overmold on this one. Leather-feel ear cups are VERY well designed and generously padded, they feel very natural on my head and surround my ear with an almost hermetic seal... pressing on the sides of the cups while wearing them yields a noticeable increase in pressure in my ears (you probably shouldn't do this). Entire system is very light (due in part to plastic construction, which doesn't come off feeling as "cheap" as other plastic headsets). At 4ft, the cord doesn't give a ton of room, but it was designed to be used with a console controller audio jack, so it doesn't need it... but for use with an mp3 player or laptop, it's great for those that don't need the extra length getting in the way. Some cons: In-line volume/mic control is small and hard to grasp (almost too smooth), and in turn, the volume control knob is very narrow and set deeply in the control box. When you do locate the volume blindly, it's somewhat difficult to roll, but I'm going to assume it will loosen in time. I would suggest moving it closer to the wire's splitter to make it easier to locate blindly, but it's a personal preference some may disagree with. The mic only inserts into the headset in one direction, having a cut out on the mic itself that must be aligned with a tab on the mic jack. It's difficult, though not impossible, to insert it while wearing the headset, so I suggest you choose in or out before you begin using them. I see no reason why this design had to be implemented, and hope future models will omit it. The connecting band has very little in the way of padding across the top of your head. It's not only a very small fill, but it's the same low density, very soft foam used in the ear cups, making it almost ineffective. It's not uncomfortable once you get the fit right for your head (though mine is shaved, your mileage may vary), but it still seems no thought at all went into this design point. Increasing the fill or using a higher density foam could fix this in future models. Each ear cup is connected to one half of the wire, which I personally don't enjoy the feel of, though its double connection design does prevent a lot of twisting that could lead to a single wire design pulling out of it's grommet. The wire(s) itself is very soft and flexible, which while offering comfort, I'm afraid would be easily abraded or pinched. All in all, you would be hard pressed to find another headset that offers more or performs better at or near this price point...it may even be an impossibility. Though PLa's are cheaper and more than adequate, for any looking for an entrance point into the headset market, these are without a doubt the only headset I will ever recommend again. If you need higher performance, just move up the price scale in the turtle beach line, each offering will blow you away.

When it comes to the world of gaming, a pair of headphones can be crucial in order to be success. I recently started looking for a new pair of headphones since my last pair had been stolen and the pair before that had the frame snapped. After a lot of careful research I came to the conclusion that purchasing the Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset, which is the same pair I had that got stolen, was the right choice for me. Here are some of the reasons I believe that these headphones are the right choice for any gamer, casual or hardcore. Sound: The Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset offers very high quality 40 mm speakers that allow the user to hear in game noises that you can’t hear through the TV or on any base headset. These sounds play in the headphone in which the direction of the sound is coming from, which I think is the coolest part. Price: There are headsets out there anywhere from $10 to over $200. These only cost $35, which is a fair and reasonable price for these, and actually they could be a lot more money for what they offer. Microphone: The microphone on the headset is always one of the more underrated things about a headset. The microphone has a pretty high-sensitivity so you don’t have it right next to your mouth and from what I have heard from friends, is very clear and doesn’t every echo. Frame: The frame of the headset is not the best, but it does the job. The Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset is the cheapest and “worst” headset that Turtle Beach offers and is the most uncomfortable headset they sell. With that being said they are pretty comfortable and I am usually able to play a couple hours without them getting uncomfortable. Durability: I had this headset for over a year before it was stolen, which is way longer than I have ever had any headset in my lifetime of playing video games. Very rarely would I have any issues with this headset. They never lost any of its quality in sound or in what I transmitted over microphone. They also did not snap and break in the first nine months like a more expensive competitor I had purchased previously. Overall, if you are looking for a solid and reliable pair of headphones that will elevate your gaming experience and without break the bank all at the same time, then the Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset are the right choice for you. For how much you are paying for you are more than getting your moneys worth with these. I would highly recommend and would give it 4.5/5 stars!

They are just ok. The ear pieces are small, the cord is short, and after a few months they make weird sounds. They work ok if you aren’t using them daily, otherwise they wear out quickly. Easy to connect with a cord but is very Short.

Awesome headset! Product came exactly pictured and described, shipped fast and arrived undamaged. One of the best budget headsets I've ever used/owned. No need to keep it charged as it conveniently plugs in to the controller and no it never gets in my way. Amazing quality from the make to the sound. I 100% recommend this headset if you need something good without breaking the bank.
