Do not buy good for Xbox One

I bought it even though I read all the negative reviews and thought "how bad can it be?" well the answer is very bad. This thing barely works as a headset. I can't believe Hyperkin put this on the market.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons

They know it doesn't work because they make it difficult to return

The landing was uncomfortable, the sound was irritable and difficult to hear, and I intruded on others than soft and broken to hear . Even reduced to $20, well worth it, I gave it 1 star because 0 wasn't an option. Now I have to pay the postage for the return

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • sad packaging

Do not buy. Avoid at all costs.

Remember how good the old Xbox 360 chat headset was? It's the other way around, it just looks that way. One of the worst headsets I've worn in terms of comfort, the flashing blue light next to your eye is distracting and the mic just didn't work. At least Revane let me get it back.

Pros
  • dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • is enough

Basically what I was looking for but poorly made

Two things to know: First, it only works for group chats. Even if the game has built-in chat and a headset is plugged in, you can't chat without being in a group. Second, mine stopped connecting after two weeks. I suspect it also needs better noise cancellation so it only picks up my voice and not noise from the TV etc. Good idea but poorly designed or built.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Seniors

Disappointing the best accessory

Terrible when turned on it connects for 5 seconds then turns off. Sometimes it just won't turn on. The mute button should not be in the earpiece. Should have been like the original. I went ahead and asked for a replacement to see if it was the right one, but my hopes are not high. Update: The replacement is connected but the sound quality is terrible. Kinect has the best sound quality. Returned.

Pros
  • Only positive
Cons
  • A bit torn

Would you like to try again?: Accessories

I'm a laid back guy who plays Xbox about 2 hours a week. Despite the bad reviews, I was hoping it might work for me. I don't mind if my voice sounds a bit distorted, but people I'm chatting with should still be able to hear me. It seems like after 10 minutes of silence as soon as I do this I basically have to yell for the mic to pick up something and usually it doesn't even work so I turn the mic on with the mute button and it works. Could this be operator error? I did everything that is in the

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Available in black only

So awful it C19

Like all s*** pieces, this thing belongs in the toilet. I've tried and we'll see. looks like an OG wireless mic from the 360 era but the mic is hard plastic so no moving parts like the 360 (I know one didn't move much either but you can twist it a bit) the sound the quality is terrible and be prepared for disconnect/reconnect messages to keep popping up, but don't use them as the mic will turn off completely shortly after. When it arrived I was happy excited I liked it even if people had toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Not worth your time and money.

I rarely write product reviews, but like many of you, I've been waiting for a Bluetooth chat headset for Xbox One. I was hoping that this headset would be even the bare minimum of quality just for being a chat headset. However, the x88 is the worst headset I have ever bought. The sound quality is terrible, the band members could hardly hear me speak. Ergonomics and button placement suck. All they had to do was play a decades-old 360 chat headset, and Hyperkin completely missed the mark. I wasโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sleek and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
