Licensed Xbox Series Headset Review-Yep That's Alot of Bass

These are the brand new offering from Microsoft designed specifically to complement the sounds and aesthetics of the Xbox Series consoles. Let's unbox them, set them up, and test the experience with different settings in the Xbox accessories app. At the $100 price point these do sound above average, however there are a few issues that leave me needing more time with these cans to fully endorse them.

Ok thank you for the Through review. I have owned these for. While and for 99 bucks you can't beat it. I did replace the earpads with some Steel series 9x style pads to eliminate the Hot ear situation. I personally prefer them to the steel series due to the USB C charging. Also they have a metal head ban internally. These are a great set to accompany the Series X/S. You deffinitely earned but Sub to your channel. Keep up the good work.

Was good bro thanks for the video. After getting into the mess that the elite 2 controller was I should of known better. However, I just had to get the new series x. Week one my headset and controllers would disconnect at random. I updated the console and controller but it kept doing it. Eventually I just sent the console in and got a new one. I hope people get their money’s worth for these headsets.

Thank you for sharing your experience, that sounds pretty damn frustrating how long did it take Microsoft to get the consul back out to you? I luckily only had connectivity issues twice, and turning the console off then back on fixed it

@alexvswrld 2 жыл бұрын

How were you able to get a new console? Was it from Microsoft themselves? I’m having issues with my external storage devices, I do think it’s the console itself doing it.

@jont1375 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the review, it helped me dial them in. Still, I returned them after 3 weeks because I couldn’t get passed the frequent disconnects and odd sounding audio. Went with the Stealth 700, so far pretty good.

@Landonio 3 жыл бұрын

Solid headset for 99 bucks. But the biggest issue is the latency when using any of the enhancements (Atmos, DTSX, Sonic, etc.). DTSX specifically sounds the best to me. Sure you can turn it off, but then you're just getting basic stereo and it causes them to not sound great at all in my opinion. They're too muddy without some sort of enhancer. Really hope this gets fixed with a firmware update. The latency makes shooters and online game a chore sometimes.

It's so funny. Everyone mentioned that you won't be able to see the mic mute light. I got my headset yesterday and I can see it just fine. What's funny is on my old steelseries arctis 5 headset with an extendable mic.. I COULDNT see the light unless i maneuvered my head or something like everyone says you'll need to with the xbox ones..

They probably need to stay motionless because of the radio control the headset uses instead of the usual Bluetooth or wireless/dongle

I was definitely impressed with 4k and the series S. Looks so much better than 1080p. And 60hz wasnt bothersome at all playing warzone

@GamerHeavenOfficial 3 жыл бұрын

If you have a decent gaming PC, and you have white PlayStation exclusive is in the past I would get a PS five. If you don’t have a capable gaming PC, and don’t care about missing out on the PlayStation exclusives that won’t come to PC (some will), Series s is really impressive for the price point. I am actually making a video in the extremely near future talking about where I find value in my series S Versus the PS five

Try a40’s or Arctic 7X’s. Except be wary of the a40s because you gonna have to get an hdmi audio converter because there is no optical cable on the series x, that’s only if you get the amp along with it though.

I have used this headset and I can comfortably say it is the best sounding headset I have ever used however I did spend a lot of time changing the frequency and I use Dolby Atmos with it aswell. If anyone wants to experience true audio I can reply to you with my settings.

Bought the headset awhile ago. Terrible headset. Allot of crackling, poor volume and volume control, bass is over powering and poor clarity. My $50 Rig headphones perform better. Out of the box they sound bad. You need to custom set in equilizer to get them to sound somewhat just ok.
