ASTRO Gaming A50 Wireless Headset + Base Station Gen 4 - Compatible With PS5, PS4, PC, Mac - Black/Silver - End of life model

After 1year they broke down. Constant firmware update issues. And Also now randomly starts to switch between Equalizer settings randomly on its own. They are great till they work. But I would say for this price they are not worth it. After 17months of use, they are now faulty. Would never suggest to buy them.

Don’t get it if you have longer than average ears very uncomfortable.

I received a used headphone, the backing damage, and the headphone looks used

ياخوان اول مافتحت الكرتون شايف انه السماعة مستعملة و لونها رايح والله لو كنت اقدر احط سالب نجمة لاكنت احط على هذا المنتج و الشخص الي باعلي المنتج حسبي الله ونعم الوكيل في الله لايوفقك

The headset making buzz sound after 1 week of using it and there is no warranty on it

Defective battery, doesnt power on without cable.

العليه مفتوحه و ماحقات السماعه ناقصه و السماعه في ها مشكله

Never have i written a bad review in my life but after intensive research I finally decide to buy these hoping they would be the best headsets and little did i know that im walking in the biggest defective scam junk ive ever experienced.

ich benutze es seid einem Jahr und jetzt kann ich auf einmal kein update machen aber sonst bin ich recht zufrieden. :)

السماعة مريحة للاذن والصوت حلو والمايك مافيه اي تشويش وصوته واضح

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.

Out the box plug into pc, if you are on windows or mac no problem download the app and update the firmware, usb from ps5 will then give power in rest mode to the charge dock and you can run the optical from your tv to the dock to get Dolby atmos. Sounds great and this headset is the most comfortable I have used. Dont hesitate when it goes on sale get them you wont regret it

Headset itself is good. Super-comfortable, great sound both ways, battery life, connectivity, a base to put in on. After 14 months of light use, just out of warranty, it gave out. Support gave me a checklist of things to try and report about, but there was no fixing it. Well despite being out of warranty they just sent me a new headset within the week without me asking. (No base, cables, manuals, fancy packaging — just a bubble-wrapped seemingly-new headset in a small box.) When you drop this kind of money on a headset, longevity is a must, and here it was.
