Astro A10 Gaming Headset Lilac

This ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Gen 2 Wired Headset is a solid headset for gaming. On a cosmetic note, I love the appearance. The white color with the small red stripes is visually appealing – subtle but a very nice add. My 13 year-old son uses these for PlayStation so I’m relaying his observations (and he has had quite a few pairs so he knows how to discern the level of quality). The headset is very comfortable – lightweight while wearing, preventing the normal fatigue that comes with long periods of gaming. They fit my son well but may be on the small side for an adult. The memory foam material is soft and breathable. Although they are lightweight, they are very durable. You don’t have to worry about the headset being fragile as it is sturdy and flexible, which is ... MoreThis ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Gen 2 Wired Headset is a solid headset for gaming.

The headset is very comfortable – lightweight while wearing, preventing the normal fatigue that comes with long periods of gaming. They fit my son well but may be on the small side for an adult. The memory foam material is soft and breathable. Although they are lightweight, they are very durable. You don’t have to worry about the headset being fragile as it is sturdy and flexible, which is almost a necessity when you have a teenager using it for gaming. Audio is good - the sound quality is crisp and clear, especially given the price point. Bass is less than outstanding but it isn’t a deal breaker. It comes with a nice long cord, which is convenient because it allows for more freedom of movement. The headset is easy to set up. The volume and mic controls are also easy to use. My son loves how the mic automatically goes to mute when flipped up. If you’re a gamer and are looking for a comfortable, visually appealing, affordable, high-quality, and durable headset – this purchase is a no brainer.

I frequently need to use over the head devices instead of earbuds for a variety of situations beyond just gaming, however, it's getting harder and harder to find that style these days unless you do pick a gaming specific headset. I've used the previous generation ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Wired Headset and liked it so I decided to give the Gen 2 a try.The first thing I want to say about the ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Gen 2 Wired Headset is how lightweight it is despite its size – and comfortable to wear. Due to an injury several years ago I have to be careful with both weight and tightness of anything on my head but even that wasn't a problem while wearing this headset. I wore it for 3 or 4 hours straight and after awhile I hardly even noticed I was wearing it ... MoreI frequently need to use over the head devices instead of earbuds for a variety of situations beyond just gaming, however, it's getting harder and harder to find that style these days unless you do pick a gaming specific headset.

Due to an injury several years ago I have to be careful with both weight and tightness of anything on my head but even that wasn't a problem while wearing this headset. I wore it for 3 or 4 hours straight and after awhile I hardly even noticed I was wearing it anymore. The ear pieces fit my ears perfectly and were so well padded that between them and the also well padded adjustable headband I was totally impressed. I will note that both headband and ear cushions are replaceable but I haven't needed to do so yet. The flip-up mic is so weird but it works great! Flip-to-mute or drop it down and bend it to fit your needs easy as pie. The in-line volume control is handy and has a decent range of sound.The contents of the box include the headphones with attached mic, a detachable 3.5 double ended cable with in-line volume control, a 65mm PC splitter cable, and a sheet of safety/compliance/warranty information in English/French/Spanish/Portuguese. Note that this headset is wired ONLY and NOT bluetooth compatible.I am by no means a gaming expert and actually wanted the ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Gen 2 Wired Headset because of the wide compatibility range including; PC/Mac, PS4/PS5, Xbox series XIS, Switch, and mobile phone. I've mostly used this headset with a Windows 7 and a Windows 10 laptop and my Samsung S10E smartphone and it has worked very well with all of it. Sound is a trifle low for phone calls but the other end heard me just fine through the mic. However, the sound for phone apps like Pandora, Youtube, and games is clear and quite good.There are things that I've liked better about both Gens of the ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Wired Headset but I can say that this Gen 2 set is probably the one that I'll use the most due to its lightweight and comfortable wear for hours at a time. Whether you are a gamer or just a fan of headphones the ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Gen 2 Wired Headset is the affordable set to check out...

This is a review for ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Generation 2 Wired Headset. Let me start by saying these are pretty comfortable headphones compared to what I had before. The mesh ear pieces are great for ventilation so that your ears do not sweat, but also they are quite sound proof so that people around you cannot hear your music or conversations. The headphones I got are white with red and grey elements. The set comes with a flip-to-mute microphone that is very convenient when you don’t want to talk and just listen. You just flip the mic up and done. The headphones are adjustable on both sides to fit big and small heads. Just slide both sides up or down. The top of the headphones has a mesh cushion for extra comfort and to prevent sweating. The headphones are ... MoreThis is a review for ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Generation 2 Wired Headset.

Overall I think these are great headphones and hopefully they will last me long time.
