Eventually, serious gamers will ditch the standard headset, but if you're new to the Xbox or gaming in general, or you just need to buy some time while you research more expensive headsets, this is a great starter!Mine has been through the ringer (thrown, sat on, spilled drinks, etc.) and still works! So it's highly durable as well. No batteries required, as it attaches by wire to your Xbox controller. Easy to mute and adjust the volume using the integrated buttons that are already at your fingertips.Now for the cons!- Your squad/teammates will hear background noise through your mic if it's loud enough. True for a lot of headsets, but with this type especially, you're not using it for game audio (only chat audio). So that means you're going to be relying on your TV's audio during gaming. If you turn that up too loud, teammates will hear it!- While wired has some advantages, the big disadvantage is that it dangles and can get easily snagged. Minor gripe, but worth mentioning.- Foam earpiece is comfortable for short-term gaming, but the fact it's up against your entire ear becomes more noticeable over time.- Not the loudest or clearest audio experience!Overall though, it's hard to beat the price. Great to have as a backup or in the meantime while you're trying to decide on a more expensive headset.

We play video games on a projector with 9.2 surround sound. The last thing I want is to hear people’s voices coming through our speakers. Having this headset is great because it forced the voice to only come through it. It’s also lightweight and comfortable to wear for extended time. Just connect the cord to the controller and it works perfectly. No pairing needed!

“Brand new” haha right. Plugged them in, no chat, not working either direction. They were just dead. Unplugged them, plugged them back in, tried to update controller, tried 3 other updated controllers…NOTHING. Tried one last time and they worked…..An hour later, they didn’t work again. Dead like they started. Did the whole process thing again, couldn’t get them to work. Once again I have to hop in the car and drive more Amazon junk back to the UPS store.For the record, when I opened the box, the clear round sticker to the box looked like it had been picked off and put back on a few times. The whole headset was covered in white cloth fuzzies and in the right light, you could see water marks on the black of the product. The “manual” was bent and corners were bent clearly been roughed around. They were used and clearly were wiped down to look new. Never have I ever seen this in an actual new headset from the store or electronics stores. Plain and simple, I ordered new and got used. And used JUNK. Save your time, listen to these bad reviews because they aren’t bought or paid for…they are legit. These things are being sold to us as new and they are clearly returns from other places, being sold as new. And most people return crap when it doesn’t work so AMAZON needs to stop this from happening!!! We order new we expect new! Much like when we buy from the store!!!!! So I’m returning these and getting my money back and then I’m going to go to an actual store and buy them. Which is what I should have done from the start. I’m tired of having to go to TWO places….when buying stuff online. Once to the UPS store and then again to a store to buy a replacement of the junk I got delivered to my door. Such an eye roll. DONT BUY THESE HEADSETS. LISTEN TO THE OTHER BAD REVIEWS OR YOU WILL SURELY BE DISAPPOINTED. LIKE ME.

First off, the sound. Crystal clear, folks. I can hear my teammates barking orders like they're right next to me, no muffled mess. No fancy surround sound gimmicks here, but for chatting and hearing the game, it's all I need. Plus, my ears don't get tired after hours of battling online, thanks to the comfy design. It's lightweight, adjustable, and doesn't trap heat like some of those old beasts I used to wear.Now, I'm not a tech whiz, but even I can appreciate the simple setup. Plug it straight into the controller, no messing with Bluetooth or batteries. Mute button? Right on the earcup. Volume control? Same place. Easy as pie, even for these old thumbs.And let's talk price. This headset won't break the bank, unlike some of those highfalutin' options out there. For a no-nonsense gamer who just wants clear communication and comfort, this thing is a steal.Sure, the mic boom ain't the most flexible, and there's no fancy in-line controls, but hey, for the price and what it does, I ain't complaining. It gets the job done, and that's what matters.

Like other reviewers have said, I don't like to wear full size, over-ear headsets. I also did not want to have my game sounds come through the headset, only my friends voices. So for my needs this headset worked out perfect. It's very light weight, only goes on 1 ear so can hear my TV, the controls for mute and volume are easy to use when holding the controller and probably best of all, it was inexpensive. It's been about a year since I bought it, and I've used it for probably an average of 10 hours each week; still working well.

I picked up this headset as I wanted to be able to chat while playing games online but did not have a need for headphones as well, was really looking for options with the ear piece on one side like this one.Connecting was super simple, you literally only have to plug it into the controller and you are good to go. I was expecting to have to do some kind of setting changes on the Xbox or something, but that was it!Hopped on a game and had no issues. Other players could hear me and I could hear them. Chat is the only sounds coming from the earpiece, so dont expect to hear any of the sounds from game(which was exactly what I was looking for in this case).Only draw back I had, and maybe not limited to just this set was other people could hear my music, which I had on VERY low, so the mic is pretty sensitive.

La diadema y el auricular se escuchan perfectamente. La esponjilla cubre bien la oreja (y eso que la mía parece un poncho) y la idea de integrar los controles en la parte inferior del mando le da un plus de comodidad y manejo estupendos. El cable queda por debajo y no entorpece durante la sesión de juego. 100% recomendable.
