Xbox Wireless Headset: One Week Later
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 июл 2024
- The new Xbox wireless headset offers Dolby Atmos, Bluetooth connectivity and some great new features. But is it worth $100? This is my Xbox headset review after 1 week #xbox #xboxwirelessheadset #xboxheadset
So if you’re looking at picking up a set of these Xbox wireless gaming headphones, I’m going to do an unboxing, full review, sound and mic tests. Along with comfort, design, setup and battery life. I will even do a mic comparison with the Astro A20s and Arctis 7s.

The sound quality out of the box was amazing, maybe I'm just not used to good quality headphones but they sounded phenomenal to me.
Agreed. --
I mean his box was damaged
Trust me it’s pretty poor better off with turtle beach 700
@@SARGENTDOODLE I've got the Xbox headset and have no issues with sound quality, plus I've been stung by other companies claiming their headsets work with Xbox only to find they don't.
Yeah… I’m used to very high quality headsets, and they sound pretty average for the price. Nothing that bad but I’ve heard better tbh
The Xbox mic actually sounds a lot better than I was expecting 🙂
Really?
It’s not the best mic tho since it’s using Bluetooth connection. I think pulse 3D headset is better if you connect it with 3.5mm
@@joseolvera9287 yeah but in all honesty i think both the xbox and ps headphones were dissapointing, sticking to mine
@@beastedninja3757 for $100 I think I’m getting what I payed for and I’m happy with my pulse 3D headset. Definitely much better than my old headset lol
@@joseolvera9287 i think they are great headphones just didnt meet my expectations
Good review mate. Only thing you missed was the MS use a proprietary wireless communication protocol to connect Xbox controllers and headphones. Bluetooth is added for phones, tablets and laptops. 👍
Thanks for the tip regarding installing the Dolby App to get the "Xbox Headset" working great. They become available in a couple of weeks where I am and I have been considering getting the dolby app anyway because I suddenly have a lot of 4K HDR movies with Dolby Atmos audio that would benefit from the audio upgrade.
It's a sin to dislike a quality video like this. Great Content as always.
haha thank you mate. I appreciate it.
@@SpawnPoiint Does the skin come off the headphones?
I don’t even have an xbox but can’t stop watching each and every video of yours 😂 amazing flow, editing, and voiceover makes a tech lover like me be unable to resist watching every single video all the way to the end. Great work, you deserve a million subs!
Edit: Got an Xbox series X and the wireless headset recently!
Thank you for the support mate
Xbox Headset - Can't wait to get mine when it launches in May in South Africa
Excellent review mate. Love how you showed us how other headset sound with the mic. That was excellent. Love this headset and yes Dolby App is a MUST!
Always been a fan of your videos, mate. Well-organised, to the point, and informative. Keep up the good work 👏
Thank you mate
I was looking up my boy hollowpoiint about a 3 months back maybe 2 and I ended up on your channel. Honestly the quality is extremely high. You definitely deserve a lot more subs and I’m sure you’ll get there soon. I now look forward to your videos. Thanks man keep it up!
Thank you mate. I appreciate the support!
Same
Thank you I plan to pick up this XBOX HEADSET now!
This is why I love your videos, other reviewers who have millions of views just sound like yes men. You gave the good the bad and the ugly. Thank you sir!
Thank you mate, I appreciate that observation too.
Very useful and well done review, I have now returned my Arctis 9x as the crackling and disconnects were a nightmare and I picked up a pair of these. They actually work!! I did watch to the end :)
Thank you mate. That’s a shame with the Arctis
@@SpawnPoiint yeah, gutting....major crackling and constant disconnects. Played with these Xbox ones for hours and they have been solid.
I know this is a year old video but thanks. I had the 9x and they crackled every 5 seconds. I have the Corsair wireless Xbox headset now and it crackles from time to time. These just came today so I’ll change them and hopefully get the same results you guys got.
@@Duhballz still going strong btw (official wireless)
I know I'm like a year late here, but to add a few things: If you have a long enough USB C cable, you can indeed use it wired on a PC without the need for bluetooth (which uses the worse codec possible). Alternatively, you can use the Xbox Wireless adapter for PC as well to achieve the same quality as wired. Also, you can have both your Xbox Audio and bluetooth audio working at the same time, which is pretty cool.
Amazing video, answered all the questions I had
Your video and audio quality is always top notch 🔥
Thank you Musa, I appreciate the feedback.
Nice job mate- haven’t seen any other reviewers speak in detail on the Dolby Atmos capabilities, this was very valuable info! Hoping these headphones are back in stock soon.
Thank you mate
I haven’t seen it mentioned that the Dolby Atmos for headphones purchase links to your Microsoft Account, which means you can use it on your Windows PC as well! As long as it uses the same Microsoft account! In fact if you have another Xbox you can use it there as well! So as a £14 one off purchase, it’s pretty good. I use Dolby Atmos for headphones when playing Overwatch on PC and didn’t need to re-purchase for the Xbox as it’s linked to my account.
This review is one of the best i ve seen in a while quality whise is top level great work man !
Thank you mate.
Thanks been tying to get paired to my series x now paired very helpful video cheers
Xbox Headset. Thanks for the video. Very informative and I'm thinking to get mine after watching your review. Can't go wrong with that price point.
Xbox Headset
Love the overall vibe and video quality of all of your content
Keep up the good work 👍🏻
Thank you dude
Always super happy to see a new SpawnPoiint upload grace my sub box. 😄
haha thanks mate. I appreciate the support.
What a clean review this is! 👌🏻
I'm always waiting for another video of yours, because they're professional, informative, and really enjoyable to watch. Keep up the great work, hope you get to 90k by the end of this month!
Wow, thanks for the positive vibe mate. I appreciate it.
Exactly
He's at 91k now.
😅
I have watched countless reviews on this headphone and this was by FAR the best and most in depth one
Thank you dude
the sound quality out of the box wasn't bad at all. but yeah of course if you want to have better sound, adjust the settings. also when it comes to the tightness on the head, most new headphones do that, that is not a deal breaker, as that tightness goes away at some point of usage. i've noticed people always mention that, now granted some headphones may not be uncomfortable out the box, but again, as time goes by that goes away.
So glad I stumbled across your channel. The reviews are always on point.
Thank you mate.
No other reviewer mentionned the Dolby Atmos tip. Well done - Thank you !
I love the image quality of your videos ! amazing
Thanks mate.
@@SpawnPoiint You got bro 😍💚
“Xbox headset” I watch your videos in the morning with a cup of coffee. Your voice overs are extremely informative and your cinematography is on point 👌
Thank you Rui, I appreciate that!
XBOX Headset! Great review! Think I'm getting one of these. Connection to all 3, wireless, and price is great to me!
Xbox headset.
I love tjos Chanel, there is bo unnecessary talks, very informative and well edited video. Keep up the good work!
Yess Dolby atmos is killer. I have turtle beach recon 200’s & it sounds amazing.
Just love this channel.
Thank you mate!
That’s Cap
@@elppaenip how?
@@OnixMint The guys name is Cap I was telling spawnpoint who said it
Love this channel ?!! Dudes a liar! He’s a fraud ! He said a week later but the headset still had plastic wrap on it
Great review covering a little of everything. I been liking these headphones. Especially how it connects to my phone and my xbox at the same time. Can even answer a phone call and keep playing with it. My main issue is I been having random disconnect and reconnecting issues while I'm playing. I cant seem to figure out what exactly the problem is. I notice it happens with my controller at the same time too but not without the headset. Its been frustrating. Having trouble figuring out what the exact cause is. It might be something with my xbox since my controller is having trouble too. Tried going wired and my controller+headset started breaking up too.
Xbox Headset x2... I knew about the Dolby Atmos for free, but it is a huge addition to gaming, too. Appreciate you! Nice presentation.
These sounds amazing out of the box
Great review
Mate, thank you!
This channel is so good, ur reviews are always top quality Keep it going!!!!
Thank you for the support mate
Production values spot on again. Great review thanks, loving mine.
Thank you Richard!
Xbox Headset....another great video my man, deffo my fave tech youtuber at the moment and nice seeing a fellow brit doing so well.
Thank you Adam, I really appreciate that.
Hello fellow Brits 👊🏻 from another fellow Brit 😊
Another fellow Brit joining the chat
The dials are really cool, they've obviously put a lot of thought in to that. Nice and easy to adjust levels instead of trying to find a little dial. Is Dolby Atmos a pay once thing or is it another subscription to worry about?
Fortunately it's a pay once, then you own the app.
Brilliant review mate. I have never been on the fence so much in my life about these!
Hahah it’s why I had to give them a go
Me too I own a set of Astro A50’s mic has recently broke and looking for a cheaper headset as my wife is on maternity leave and money is tight!! Although my mic has broke I’m really finding it hard to give the Astros up! they sound amazing and so comfy.
Your review was most helpful! Thank you!
Thank you mate
Agreed, they are on the tight side, the side of my head near my ears did hurt after about 3hrs, I wear glasses too and have an average head size. They can stretched by leaving them overnight held apart at where the headband joins the ear cups (not by using the ear cups over a box as this will just crush the foam) about 10” over a couple of nights should help.
Thanks for the advice, might give that a go.
@@SpawnPoiint you can use like a piece of plywood say 9mm thick.
Bro loved your video Quality
Thanks mate, I appreciate the support.
I'm subscribing. Been watching your videos recently and really like them. Very informative. 👍Awesome job.
Thank you for the support mate
Thanks for this review. I have this ordered, so good now i have a headstart with the free trial dolby install.
No worries. Thank you for watching
The Xbox Headset is sweet and well worth every penny. Good review man.
I’ve always had $10 to $20 headphones
I bought these a few days ago, it is SO much better, I can’t believe how nice these things are, also they connect to my phone which is super helpful for when my AirPod pros die, but man these are amazing to me, and they sound epic!
Your Airpods PROs were more towards the $10 or towards the $20 price ? And where did you get them from ? :)
Xbox headset
It seems I’ve been making it to the end of all your videos lately..and why wouldn’t I?! Great work! Thank you.
Thanks for the support mate
Xbox Wireless Headset. Thanks for an informative review video. I've just ordered the headset :)
Thanks for watching
Nice review, my Xbox headset is in the post.
Atmos is a huge improvement over the default spatial audio (still impressive & has been for years) and I’d say for under £15 it’s definitely worth it (it’s always on sale every few months)
Totally agree mate. Thanks too.
Yea I agree 100%.I didn't want to spend that 15$ lol,BUT I saw reviews of how much a difference it makes so I said ok,lets see!!🤣🤑We played those demo game clips an movie clips and WOW!?BLOWN AWAY!!Everythings better in Atmos mode!!Even games an movies without it,STILL BETTER!👍My go to fave xb headset rite now!Enjoy
@Christopher P Dolby Atoms via the headset and supported TVs/Soundbars also if you have a compatible display you’ll get Dolby Vision from those streaming services that use either Dolby products
@Christopher P with the Dolby App you’ll get Atmos audio from supported streaming service, 4KUHD disks and games
@Christopher P you’ll need the Dolby App…. That’s basically doing all the work while the headset (wired or wireless) is delivering that to your ears. I believe the App has a free trial so you can even test it out on your existing headset. There are a dozen or so trailers (movies/gaming) to demonstrate Atmos
Video looks super good man! I like the headset, but it's going to take a whole lot to pull me away from the arctis pros
XBOX HEADSET - Great review and thanks for the Dolby Atmos info, made a world of difference!
I found this channel while looking for the xbox headphones and now I subscribed. Awesome content my man :)
Thank you dude
1st of all thank you for giving a proper review of the Xbox Headset themed for SeriesX, with an actual mic test and everything. Since I chose PS5 for this gen, I have the others and there's alot left to be desired.
While I like the auto sound adjustment for any newer generation sound source thanks to the new Tempest Engine they've developed, it doesn't excuse the convenience features that PULSE 3D lacks due to being tied to a dongle and while there's the 3.5mm if you do want it for phone or mp3 player, let's be honest they're wireless and you want to use the wireless feature. While it does sound like the headsets actual cost $121 after tax with needing to get Dolby access (which is what I'd do if I had them to be a completionist) to get full power, without a doubt they over Playstation's since convenience is on point. what's your thoughts on wear and tear for the dials? that are easily accessible but are an opportunity for hardware failure through "regular" use. I know regular is all relative depending on the person.
Thanks for watching. Using the dials during the last week, it feels pretty solid. It doesn’t feel like it’s wear of break over time. I’m impressed with it.
@@SpawnPoiint I see glad to hear. hope it stays that way.
Great review. I actually watched from beginning to end. I have one myself and I am really impressed by what this headset can do for under $100.
Xbox Headset.
Thank you mate.
XBOX HEADSET! Great video, very insightful
Just got mine this week. Going to try using Dolby after this. Thank you!
How do you like them?
Listening on the wireless headset 💯
I pray that this channel hit 1 million. Love you from Bangladesh
haha thanks mate, maybe in 10+ years.
Its not joke. We will support you
I can say I am og when he get as many subs as unbox therapy
Well made video, great info and description.
Thanks mate.
Xbox headset!! I’ve not watched many reviews where I’ve not skipped or watched til the end, but damn this was good!
Thank you dude
Xbox headset!
Until next time SpawnPoiint! Keep on the good job 👍
Thank you for the support mate
“It’s definitely a shower” comedy😂
It'll probably go unnoticed by most haha!
Great review! Maybe I'll buy them as a back up when my turtle beach is empty. Sometimes i forget to charge lol. Xbox headset & i love your channel mate! :)
Thank you dude.
Thanks for the review. I love all the details and information
Thanks for watching
Having both these and the pulse 3d for the ps5.
I like the xbox ones more for 2 reason:
1. No dongle
2. Connection to 2 devices at once. Being in a group discord call while listening to gameplay. With the ps5 I'm having to use my earbuds and the pulses, quite uncomfortable.
Hey buddy, just to clarify, can you connect to pc AND Xbox at the same time?
@@liamlegendary7738 as long as the second connection is Bluetooth, then yes.
@@Xavier-be2mi just for the avoidance of doubt, I’m looking to run discord from my pc with a microsoft dongle at the same time I’m playing Xbox. Do you know if this will work?
Sorry for being pedantic
@@liamlegendary7738 you're fine, but I'm not 100% sure of that. I don't have a pc, but being connected to my phone and xbox it works flawlessly
I needed the dongle for my gaming laptop
I bought them already because of the overwhelming positive reviews and price point and rarity as well actually. I snagged a pair today since I saw them in stock online and honestly I don't play for more than 3 hours at a time because I'm grossly busy all the time.
This headset seems like a winner.
PS. I've had Dolby Atmos for years, ever since they launched it on the Xbox One haha.
You’re sorted with the Dolby Atmos then mate.
@@SpawnPoiint Awesome!
So..what has been your experience with these headphones so far?
@@nekrositoh They're fantastic and as an audio nerd these, with their features, cannot be beat at a $99 price point. The complaints people have about these being bass heavy is true, but they're out of pocket saying that it makes footsteps muddy or you can't tell where people are. I can tell where people are with these and even while bass heavy, makes listening to music with them pleasant too. Although I only listen to music on them while playing games. I wouldn't ever use these JUST for music because I have $500 sets for that.
Im here to drop a like to one of my favorite channels on youtube, thanks for another great review brother, Im looking to buy this headphones.
Ah thanks mate, I appreciate the support.
Thanks for the video. None of the other reviewers mentioned the app. It truly made a huge difference. New sub here 😁
Thank you.
Always happy when I see this this notification
Thank you mate! I appreciate everyone who jumps on early too.
British MKBHD! cant wait for you to hit 100k.
Thanks dude
Thanks for the review, I almost purchased a pair, guess I will keep looking for something else.
Xbox Headset! Thank you for the very thorough review
My very short review: It's a good headset for gaming. The features are awesome, the sound quality is okay (it's not an audiophile headset). Out of the box audio was awful, but after EQ settings it sounds pretty good. My only problem with the headset is the headband, it's very tight. Overall 7,5/10
"XBOX HEADSET"
edit: I wrote my "review" before watching the video, but after watching the video I realized I wrote down the same thing as you said in the video. And I will try Dolby Access.
edit: for better sound quality just use "uncompressed stereo", sounds much better, than any virtual surround option.
Can you share your eq settings? Thanks
@@luisfernando55 125Hz: -12; 250Hz: -12; 1kHz: -1; 4kHz: +1; 8kHz: 0
Notification squad here early. Love to get you on the podcast man! 🥺😬
Thank you mate, send me a DM on Instagram.
@@SpawnPoiint I’m on it. 🥶
Great video as considering in buying these and great that you've been honest and pointed out the best way to getting the best out of the by using dolby atmos 🖖🖖
Probably one of the best reviews I ever watched
The Xbox mic was better than the astro, especially with the NC. It's superior to the Pulse on every level, for the same price. I've used the headset for 8 hours continuously, and thought comfort wise better than most no issues whatsoever.
Only things you could count as better for the 3D Pulse is sound because of the 3D surround sound and the options
Such a good price I have had tons of fun with this headset on my series x. The Dolby atmos is outstanding I love the boom base and design. Unfortunately you do have to pay for Dolby atmos app
Is it a one time pay or a subscription
One time pay, try to wait for a sale it’s not so much a god tier thing so much as it’s just really nice to have it
Xbox headset! (I made it to the end)...
My pair is coming in the mail today so thank you for troubleshooting some of the quality aspects before I get it unboxed for myself and set up for the first time.
Here's hoping my big head doesn't cause the same issue(s) you were mentioning.
haha good luck with the big head tests.
Lovely review thanks
From Russia with love! Thank you for the good and nice content, man)
Thanks for the support!
Nahhh" it's definitely a shower" killed me lmao
Hahaha
Proper review. Thank you! Xbox headset
Good shout for getting dolby it's on sale atm too so got it for a tenner 👌
Mate seems you love racing games, have you ever considered getting the Logitech g29 wheel for racing and adding it to your setup, I think It'll look sick..
"Xbox headset"
I love racing games haha, I have thought about it, it's just the space that's the issue. When I move, maybe I'll incorporate it.
The fact that they can play music and receive calls from my phone while playing Xbox is the best feature in my opinion. 100% worth it.
You're absolutely right mate.
Pulse is better
@@Chadowgon5 hope it's built better than the last one, snapped in half after 6 months.
@@specialk4006 What last one ?
The simultaneous Bluetooth connection is awesome at this price point. Another big plus for me was no dongle (why does the 7x even come with a USB C adapter?).
They should have included a Dolby Atmos license though. I already owned the license and they do sound really bad without it enabled.
Just bought them and I love them!
Damn you're the first person to see that mentioned the Dolby Access app, never knew that. As always another fire video.🔥🔥
"XBOX HEADSET"
Thank you mate
Great video! Just one thing: The Headset connects to the Xbox through Xbox Wifi - which is faster and reliable. Then it connects through Bluetooth with other devices.
Thanks for the clarification mate
Mate are you really filming your videos with your phone? The quality of your clips are better than most big youtubers.
haha yes mate, all 100% iPhone still. Not plan in changing yet.
XBox Headset. Yes, I made it to the end. Thanks for the Dolby tip. I am picking up my headset tomorrow.
A cool fact I found out is that if u connect the head set to ur phone and Xbox u can watch or listen to RUclips while hearing the game and the left dial determines which u want to hear more which obv was covered in the video but I didn’t know it would work for other stuff too
These headphones are amazing. I can wear them for up to 6 hours straight without them hurting my head or ears. Never worn them longer but i dont see comfort being an issue unless you have giant dumbo ears.
"Xbox Headset". I might get these just for a private atmos experience. Otherwise I'll just use a sound bar or the other headsets he showed. Greeting from Peru. 🇵🇪
Thanks for watching mate
Superb video bruv 👌 thank you
Xbox headset. Thanks for the review especially the comparison of mic sounds very thorough 👍🏽
Thank you dude
