Almost Perfect
As good as they say, ordered these because many mention the quality between microphone and speakers were actually balanced pretty well,Normally its one or the other, good mic or good sound, very rarely both, in fact as far as I know there is only one other at this price range to have both good sound and mic quality.That said, these are a bit pricey, so you’ll be spending more then the average no matter what, but the sound quality is great and my mic sounds as good or better I’ve been told then my desk mic, these keep up with most entry level studio headphones, maybe even some mid level studio grade headphones,The connection is pretty good too, I’ve had no issues, all and all these are great and worth the money,That all said, there are cons, for me, just one, I have to adjust the first at least once a week, and adjusting requires you to take off the headset, and if your eyes are not perfect you’ll have to look closely at the barely visible lines/numbers to get each side to match, really needs a way to lock them to the size you want, these don’t feel like they are locked in, in anyway, but friction keeping them where they are, these also did come pretty tight on my head but has sense stretched to fit comfortably.
TOP TIER OFFERING ALL AROUND
I own a lot of headsets. Maybe I have a bit of a spending habit, who’s to say?I own the Audeze Maxwell, Turtle Beach Stealth Pro, and VZR Model One. All of these are great headsets…and yet I find myself using this one more than any other.This is without question on of the best headsets I’ve ever used.It shines in all categories: battery life, connectivity, charging speed, charging function (awesome docking station), stellar microphone quality (beats all my current), and most notably COMFORT. I can literally go lay down in these and have a nice lil’ nap…no problem. The buttons are intuitively well placed and easy to use. The ease of swapping from PS5 to Xbox is a breeze.My Audeze Maxwell is king of sound overall, as it is unmatched for music listening. That said, while that headset is perfectly comfortable to me, this is on a different level as its much lighter and its sound quality is right up there. This headset overall is superior to the Turtle Beach stealth pro. I wont compare much to the wired VZR Model One, as its not apples to apples.All that to say, this headset is tremendous. You cant go wrong with it. It very well may be the best gaming headset Ive ever owned overall…only contested by my Maxwell which I also love.
HDMI switch functionality made useless to save a buck.
I have owned them for a few days and I am genuinely sad about this, it seemed so perfect, the sound is great, I need a switch for my HDMI inputs, but who in their right mind decides to make a product into a multi HDMI switch and just decides not to put one in the PC slot.I wish I wasn’t so upset about this, but this is my ideal headphone setup if someone didn’t try to save $3 on production by removing a jack on a $300-$350 headset.If this headset was $100 I would just install it in the xbox jacks and use it as a 2 way switch, but no way am I tolerating this on a $300 setup. “ok but why not just plug in your monitor to your PC separately? that seems like what they want you to do” well because of two things.first, what if you do not have multiple HDMI in on your monitor, as many high end gaming monitors do.Second, if you do have multiple HDMI jacks using multiple of them at a time has issues.Your computer behaves as if it is connected to HDMI making what would have been on the monitor be off the side of the screen.You may need to shut down your computer depending on the tolerance of your monitor for “stealing” the selected input.YOU CANNOT LISTEN TO YOUR COMPUTER WHILE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES, this one would have been an issue either way, but the way that it works now it just ARBITRARILY shuts off your computers audio in spite of it not even being fully connected.Be better Logitech, I used to love you as a company and suggest you to my friends and clients, now I can no longer suggest your products to anybody because between this and the power play 2(see the end for the explanation) and all the other products you have been making worse to save infinitesimal amounts of money, I just do not trust you any more!To address the power play situation, they released a mousepad that wirelessly charges your mouse, then took it off production and made another one that is WORSE IN EVERY WAY FOR THE SAME MSRP, check the prices, at time of writing powerplay 2 is $120, powerplay 1 is above $300 in spite of originally being $120 because nobody who knows what they are talking about wants the 2 and scalpers have a monopoly.Again, I am not talking as a hater, I just feel burned and sad because a company I used to like is falling fast.To address amazon’s points, lightspeed has a decent connection range but does not go through walls, it is pretty plug and play, if you can run g hub it will make your life easy, I never got to use the mic, I charged it first and it dropped one dot (goes on a 4 dot power system) in about an hour, so 4 hour battery life? not sure.
Não posso dizer nada além de fenomenal. Já tive 2 Astro antes, apesar de gostar, o meu último que tive teve alguns probleminhas com um ano de uso e tive que comprar outro, por isso achei que nunca mais compraria um Astro, mas esse aqui me convenceu. Microfone incrível, qualidade de áudio excelente, conforto, bluetooth simultâneo, trocar pro PS5 com um toque… acho que só faltava ter uma bateria maior, porém como a intenção é sempre deixar no dock de um dia pro outro, bateria teoricamente nunca será um problema.
The Astro A50 is incredible! The sound quality is crystal clear with deep, powerful bass and super-immersive surround sound. The wireless connection is flawless, the battery lasts forever, and the base station makes charging effortless. Comfort is top-notch—I can wear it for hours without even noticing. The mic is super clear, and the flip-to-mute is genius. Easily the best gaming headset I’ve ever owned—worth every penny!
Sin duda son audífonos muy buenos, se escuchan excelente y en llamadas o chats tienen una claridad de micrófono es muy buena, se pueden conectar al celular a la vez que se usan en otra plataforma (PC, PS, Xbox), lo único malo es que, aunque son bluetooth y su alcance es muy alto, tiene el problema de que los audífonos son totalmente dependientes de la base y sin esta última, los audífonos son inútiles, es muy importante usar cables de corriente de bajo voltaje (El cable original)
Excelente audífonos, la batería con uso rudo dura alrededor de 12 h como lo menciona el empaque hasta ahora todo funciona correctamente. Muy recomendados.
