Mysterious headset with lot to learn about
Reviewed on www.walmart.com·VSG
I used it on PS4 pro and my gaming PC with rtx 3080. This is my second gaming headset, my previous one was Sony gold headset which didn't have a dedicated mic like this. \r\n\r\nPRO TIP FOR BEGINNERS: You can plug the base station through the micro USB connector on the back. Donot get confused by the USB port on the back. This is not written clearly in the manual. \r\n\r\nSony headset just had a USB headset. I'm still learning about the controls of this headset\r\nIt has many cool controls built within it. This is my opinion as a person who has no much experience with gaming headsets in particular. If you are coming from regular headsets ,you will definitely feel this. \r\n\r\n\r\nPc: I don't know if I made a mistake , but on my PC, there is no optical port ,and I'm wondering if I am missing any sound quality for not having optical port. The volume was lower for me on PC than ps4. I probably have to install astro software. There are a lot of settings to tweak around , it's good to have many options. I watched a movie and the sound effects were very good with good surround and bass. \r\n\r\nPs4: I plugged in the optical cable given with the headphones into the PlayStation and base station.\r\n\r\nYou can hear every sound and foot steps clearly in online multiplayer games like WARZONE , CALL OF DUTY\r\n\r\n\r\nThe mic is very sensitive and catches your voice easily . The good thing is it doesn't catch unnecessary noise. I tried putting it next to my aquarium ,it ignored the noise. Whereas, when I breath or chew,it can receive it. \r\n\r\nVoice quality is good during gaming. I plan to make YouTube videos using this as mic. \r\n\r\n\r\nMaterial quality : it's wonderful to see how rubber and plastic fiber is used to create this. \r\n\r\nIt definitely adds to the durability and flexibility+comfort. \r\n\r\nDolby Atmos is am added bonus. I have yet to test it. \r\n\r\nSummary : great for gaming and movie watching. Buttons are placed well and integrated into the body of the headset stealthily . Helps with multiplayer games especially footsteps.\r\n\r\nFeels very comfortable on the head with it's softpad and flexible ,durable body. \r\n\r\n\r\nCons: I wish the manual is more detailed. It will freak out a new person who gets this as first headset .

The Astro A-50 wireless gaming headset with matching base station/charging station looks great. The overall design is really cool. The high gloss black and mat black finish with gold accents make this headset beautiful and next gen looking. The headband is a ABS material with a memory foam pillow in the middle. The ear cups have a even softer slight memory foam feel but more spongy. The microphone is made out of a rubberized mat black material that can be twisted and positioned close to the mouth without having to be too close. The controls, power button, dolby button, EQ preset \r\nbutton are snappy and the volume wheel control feels smith with noticable volume levels as you turn. The mic automatically turns on and off by flipping it up and down.\r\nThe base station is compact in a high gloss black finish with white LED lights on the front and the back has a micro USB power port, USB to Xbox/computer port, 2 optical ports, one in, one out. A mode switch also. The first thing you must do is plug the base station in via USB to a computer and download the Astro software and perform a complete firmware update. Once you have all the updates complete then you can control all of the many sounds this headset is capable of. Included with this kit is a Xbox one Dolby Atmos code card that will give you 2 free years of Xbox Dolby Atmos for headphones. Getting the base station to recognize your Xbox can be a challenge. It seems to want to have to be restarted every time you use it. Astro says they are working on firmware updates to address these issues. The headset once working properly has absolutely incredible sound, the Dolby Atmos really makes you feel as if you're in the game. The sound envelopes everywhere. The headset is rather large, but can be adjusted to fit most any size head. It's big and kind of cumbersome. It's comfortable for my head which is rather large but you have to take them off for a bit every couple of hours. That could be a good thing so you can use the restroom and get a snack.\r\nAll in all I really like this gaming headset. I feel the company needs to work some bugs out. I would recommend them to true gamers with IT knowledge.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Astro A50 Gen 5 in White has completely exceeded my expectations, and after using them for a while now, I can confidently say these are some of the best gaming headphones I've owned. The bass is amazing \u2014 deep, punchy, and well-balanced without ever feeling muddy or overpowering the mids and highs. Whether I'm deep into a gaming session, listening to music, or watching movies, the sound quality is consistently rich and immersive. Setup was an absolute breeze. I had these paired and ready to go within minutes across my devices, no frustrating troubleshooting or confusing instructions required. That kind of plug-and-play experience makes a huge difference, especially when you just want to jump straight into gaming instead of fighting with settings. One of my favorite features is the charging stand that comes with the base station. It's such a simple but thoughtful addition \u2014 I just set the headphones down when I'm done playing, and I never have to worry about hunting down a cable or wondering if they'll have enough charge for my next session. It's a small thing, but it makes the whole experience feel so much more seamless and premium, and it looks great sitting on my desk too. The white colorway is also a really nice touch \u2014 it's clean, sleek, and stands out from the sea of all-black gaming gear without looking gimmicky. Overall, the Astro A50 Gen 5 strikes the perfect balance between sound quality and wireless convenience. Whether you're a casual listener or a serious gamer who needs crisp audio, comfort, and reliable performance, these check every box. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-tier wireless gaming headset that doesn't force you to compromise on sound or design.

My first impression of the Astro A50 Wireless Headphones with Base Station ,when it arrived in the mail was the packaging. It came in two boxes with beautiful designs to give you a sense of something awesome. On the box it displayed all the features and diagram of where they were on the headset, inside the package as it was opened everything was well placed and with simple instructions inside.\r\n First step was the connection which was simple for my Xbox One X, as the headset comes with its own dock for charging and connection, cords are decently long but I placed it next to my Xbox One X. The dock provides lights and symbols to show battery life and various settings for best performance Once the dock is plugged in everything with the headset is wireless with long range connection to where I was able to leave one part of the house to another.\r\n When I placed the headphones on my head, with my experience they're probably the most comfortable set I've worn. The headset has memory foam earpieces and top of head bar is also memory foam. The Astro A50 Wireless Headphones also have 360 degree adjustment with height and rotation is suitable for anyone including children. The microphone in the headset is also a great feature as when you're not wanting to talk you fold it up and it will turn off, and fold down it will turn on, it is placed a good distance from the mouth and it was a clear speech response for me and my friends.\r\n Finally, the playing time with the Astro A50 Wireless Headphones was a great experience as I could not hear anything but the games and my friends, with the noise cancelling feature and the crisp sound of the headset speakers, sounds as if you're in the game.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a headset. A serious headset. When I pulled it out of the package, I was apprehensive as the headphones felt heavy. However, when I put them on, I didn't feel that weight. And it was like having your head cradled between 2 pillows. So, comfort? Check. Sound quality? After charging them, it was, “Game on”! \nYou can seamlessly switch between your gaming systems and PC. They are plug n play with Xbox, PlayStation, Switch. First, I tried PC. It sounded like i was listening to a live performance. Yo Yo Ma was in my living room! And the sound quality seemed richer than many headphones I've tried. \nNext, I popped in a game and switched to the gaming system - it was just a tap on a button on the headphones themselves. These headphones elevate the experience unlike any others I've tried. I understand why they recommend limiting the number of hours you wear them. I didn't want you to take them off. \nFinally, I tested these on my nephew. His face lit up as he played and he tried to talk me into giving them to him. We settled for letting him use them anytime he comes over. \nThe charging base is cool, too. You don't have to fumble with anything - the headphones connect to the charging base very easily just by placing them in the cradle. . I used them for several hours without having to charge them. \nI'd highly recommend these.

Bendy and not easy to break. Charging station is heavy fudge and easy to use. Hooks right to the PlayStation and game computer easy and quick. Comfortable fit and soft ear pads that are magnetic so easy to pop off to clean! The mouth piece can go up and down for easy storage or when you just don’t want to speak into it. Bendable mouth piece is added bonus so when you take them off it doesn’t just snap. Volume button right on the headphones so it’s easy to turn up and down.

These are the best head phones I have used. Defiantly able to wear hours upon hours of time. My son loves them and I am not afraid of him breaking them as they are made very reliable. Defiantly recommend to gamers. My son also wears them just to watch YouTube on the PlayStation. Great product!!

Prior to purchasing our first Astro headset (A40 wired) we only used Turtle Beach headsets. Our two boys kept breaking them. So we started buying them cheaper headsets and got ourselves (husband and I) the Astro A40. Years later and our boys are older and more responsible, so we decided they could have our Astro set since we were getting this A50 wireless set. First off, Astro packaging is amazing. You have your main box with key points and a photo of what you're getting. Then, there is another box inside, which we are keeping to store the headset, as the graphics are pretty cool and the box is sturdy, easy open and close. \r\n\r\nHaving a wireless headset makes all the difference. I was always anti wireless and I haven't a clue as to why. Having the base station for these is so convenient. They hold their charge. They're are so comfortable. A little heavier than a Turtle Beach set, but the foam around the ears and at the top of the head makes them super comfortable. They don't start to hurt after an hour of playing. I like how easy they are to adjust, they glide with ease. The buttons are easy to figure out and the flip up mic for muting is quick to use. If you're in the market for serious sound, comfort and quality, these work so well with both our Playstation and Computer. Definitely recommend!

I really wasn't sure what to expect at all with these, but I knew they'd be perfect for my 10-year-old "gamer" son. He was like a kid on Christmas morning when these arrived. I didn't realize that this was the headset he'd been wanting for a long time now. I've only used them a few times for a few of my PC games because they rarely leave his ears. I love the color of the headset and love that it's black & gold. The headset and base are super high quality and the sound is unlike anything I've ever experienced in any headset before this. It enhances everything you use them with. They are very sturdy and durable. We haven't had any issues connecting the headset to the console or PC. The base works perfectly and it's actually a really nice display. They also charge super fast. I can't recommend these enough and know that I'll have to immediately repurchase if something ever happens to these.

They are comfortable to wear for long periods of time, when others ended up hurting my head or ears. It takes roughly an hour to charge back up to 100, from 0. I experienced no audio lag as well.

I have used them as well as my grand children and we have had no problems with them after the initial setup, and placing them on the base to properly charge! The set will mute when the mic is lifted and that is a nice function! They are a bit pricey but a good buy for the money!

If you want hands-free gaming this is the way to go The base station that keeps the headphones charged is minimal easy connections for either PC or your console Don't be surround sound but you can also download for your PC for free but I'm using it for my Xbox I love it I can finally play with other people and communicate I would definitely recommend this to anybody what a great device and it's fairly solidly built I will say one thing the headphones are probably the most comfortable headphones I've ever put on my head and I'm 66 so that's a lot of headphones and you can always buy upgraded ones if you need them but I would definitely consider this if you're looking for a console for your gaming

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quality quality quality. That is the best way to sum up the build of this device. The ear cups are made of a durable and comfortable material, the mic arm adjust smoothly, and the headset and base station both have a decent weight and feel like a quality product. Both headphone and microphone quality are superb and there is really no room for improvement. The wireless function works fantastic as well and there are no problems with range or compatibility across devices. Base station charging is easy and works well without the need to plug in a manual cable. Comfort, performance, and quality sum up all there is to know about this device
