What customers say about "Key Specs"

Turtle Beach Recon 50X White Stereo Gaming Headset

Sound quality is great . I like the detachable mic worth the price.
The sound is perfect you can hear all steps and explosions!
Great product as always from turtle beach. Sound quality and fit are great. The noise cancelling also works very well with my dogs when they start barking.
The headset is rather light and comfortable to wear for an extended period of time.
These headphones crapped out after 1 month. Was satisfied at first but the connection became full of static and had to trash them.

What customers say about "Headset"

Turtle Beach Recon 50X White Stereo Gaming Headset

Loud enough, sound blocking when wearing, hand adjustable volume and on off mic switch, 5 starts.
The volume on the headset is quite loud [in a good way], so much so, that I only turned it up half way to game with, and that was more than enough to hear everything quite easily. If you enjoy gaming, TV, or music at higher volumes, these will work well for you.
The sound quality is great for $30, the mic quality is great and can pick up the sound around you if you don't turn your mic settings down in the Xbox menu.
after almost 1 1/2-2 hours of using them, the cushions really hurt the outside of my ears. Maybe I just have bigger ears than I realize and my family and friends have never been nice enough to be honest about it with me.

What customers say about "Microphone"

Turtle Beach Recon 50X White Stereo Gaming Headset

The sound quality and mic quality on these headphone and excellent but the build quality feels cheap.
Very good headphones and mic. No complaints on my part. The kids enjoys it a lot. Would recommend this if your looking for a headset for your Xbox One.
For the price, I think this is the best headset on the market. The sound quality is good and so is the mic. I can definitely say that I'm satisfied with this purchase.
Very comfortable, good sound quality, good mic quality, all around good headset.
The mic works decently and the sound is ok (the hyperx stinger blow these out of the water for not much more) for about 1.5 months. Now, whenever the headset is plugged in to ANYTHING you get loud pops and the mic cuts out regularly.

What customers say about "Features"

Turtle Beach Recon 50X White Stereo Gaming Headset

Awesome. Very comfy fit and connected easily into the controller with no need for adapter. Overall, awesome product.
Flip up to mute microphone that is pretty sensitive works great for gaming.
Nice features, moveable mic, comfortable ear covers, easy adjustment, volume levels.
Purchased this headset as a gift, and was dismayed when the recipient told me the connector broke off the end of the wire after barely 2 months of mild use.
