Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Renewed ASTRO Gaming A50 Wireless Dolby Gaming Headset - Black/Green - Xbox One & PC by Chasmum Kumar แ Œ

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

This review is about the THIRD generation of the headset, i. E. Gen3. In 2022, at the time of writing this review, it is not yet officially sold. Different pros: -Great sound quality that surpasses many big name wired headphones. - Work in both normal and Dolby modes. High quality surround sound in the latter. -In PC mode, it can work both from a computer sound card via an optical cable connected to the S / PDIF connector, and through its own sound processor. -Superior soft ear pads and headrest. -Sturdy design with metal rods instead of the usual temples, which eliminates breakage after a year or two of use, as I had with all the headphones before. -Very convenient and reliable headrest height adjuster. - Stability of wireless connection and no sound dropouts, jerks and any interference (hello to the crooked Turtle Beach). -Wonderful branded software with the ability to ate the headset and docking station software, install sound profiles, microphone settings, and even the brightness of the docking station indicators. -Ability to charge the headset as a method of installation on the docking station, and USB-cable at the same time using. -Possibility of modification through the official "mod-kit", containing leather ear pads and a tighter headrest for complete sound isolation. -Very beautiful and stylish design of both the headset itself and the docking station. Has cons: - Lack of an adapter from S / PDIF to optics and a USB cable for charging. I was lucky to have both at hand, the rest need to prepare in advance. -Poor quality of the microphone, the sound is kind of dull I bought the device solely for headphones for PC use and still use a desktop microphone. Who takes it for its intended purpose, that is, for use as a headset with PS4 or Xbox One - this point should be taken into account.
