Astro A20 Bluetooth Wireless Gaming Headset for Xbox Series X|S/Xbox One: Adjustable Headband, USB-C Connection

Great Mid-Teir Wireless Gaming Headset
I saw that these were on sale and considered picking up a set as a gift, because I've owned a pair (Gen 2) for about 2.5 years now without any issues. I was surprised to see the poor reviews! I've owned a bunch of different gaming headsets over the decades that I've played video games, and have had the opportunity to use more from friends and family. The Astro A20 is not a fancy-pants headset, but it's great for a middle tier performer. I use it about 4 times a week for a few hours every evening (primarily playing shooters, with an occasional RPG). The sound is clear, without any latency or fuzziness. I can plainly hear and distinguish the direction of foot steps, vehicles, and voice communications from other players without any problems. I am told that my voice comes across clear as well, and have never had an incident of static mic or echos. The audio mixer is on the side of the unit, so I don't have to download an app or anything annoying to enhance one type of sound over another. Setting up the headset is super easy, and the wireless dongle connection is easy to reset or travel with if needed (just plug it in). The headset seems to be pretty hardy. I am generally careful with it, but it has fallen off of the mantle where I keep it several times (5ft drop on wood floors), and every so often a kid uses it. Despite the mild abuse, it still functions as intended. Even with playing a few hours most nights of the week, I still only have to charge it about once per week. It takes a USB-C, and charges fairly quickly. You can use it while it charges too. One annoying thing about the headset is that once it is dying, it makes an incessant beeping pattern through the headset about every 30 seconds until you charge it. Comfort-wise, the headset is super cushioned and doesn't have any porous foam that makes contact with your head, so it's easy to wipe down when needed. It does fit on the slimmer side, so larger heads or wide-set eyeglass frames may suffer a bit until it stretches out a bit (although mine still doesn't have much slack after all of this time). Unless there is a new generation that has some sort of manufacturing defect, the A20 should perfectly suit most gamers looking for a nice wireless headset. I definitely recommend it!

High quality wireless gaming head phones! Excellent clear sound. Comfortable memory foam ear and head pieces. For my kid, they are still a bit large and bulky. The volume controls are easy to adjust and I really love the quick flip to mute feature with the kids! Rechargeable battery that lasts for several hours of continuous play on a single charge. Love saving on batteries!

Cool gamer headphones
Sound quality: B+. These headphones have good sound quality and depth with gaming. Also good for surround sound. Comfort: A. Cushion is good for the side of the head and is nice as it doesn’t completely compress the ears or get irritating over hours of use. Cushion on top is comfortable as well. Due to having extra space between the headphones and head there is no swear build up or ears. Adjusting of headphones is nice as it can go exactly where it is comfortable and not fixed points Connectivity: A. Easy to connect with xbox and immediately good to start with.. Look of headphones: A headphones look sleek, clean, and durable. Issues: when headphones are on max volume speakers can be staticy or sound goes off for 1-2 seconds. The static can be frequent at times and be distracting. Overall grade. B+ headphones would be an A overall if not for sound issues as that is the most important aspect. Good price point.
