About this deal

In music, a frequency response like this is good for electronic music, and other genres where booming bass is what you’re looking for. Gamers looking for something wireless that works on console and PC should pay attention to Astro A50 Wireless.

But from what results we can get by poking the headset every so often and checking the battery percentage: we’d estimate around 16 hours of playback time.However, it also means if you’re prone to laying down as you play or watch movies or what have you, you might run into it going to sleep while you’re using it.

The Astro A50 Wireless offers the bells and whistles you'd expect of a premium gaming headset, but it flubs basics like mic and build quality. Some possible explanations are that I don't have Atmos properly configured on my PC, or maybe the Gen 3s aren't Atmos compatible. The Xbox Base Station model have Microsoft's security chip installed, which is required for voice chat on the Xbox. Most of the time, there isn’t much issue, but every so often, the base station stops charging the headset.

If the lights on the base station don't light up whenever you're charging your headphones, you may have a power issue or the batteries can be faulty. I've heard people saying that Atmos is really great in terms of 3D sound, but I cannot tell the difference between Atmos and regular 2. If you’d rather charge by plugging in, there’s a USB port for plugging other devices into the base, too. The fourth generation of Astro A50 Wireless continues the line’s focus on wireless gaming using a base station for easy charging and switching between PC and PlayStation 4.

A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products. The Astro Gaming A50 Wireless connects to your console or PC using a USB cord connected to its included base station and charging cradle.This will work for people without optical outs on their tv or monitors, just watch for any limiting resolution or refresh rate extractors. This is a premium wireless gaming headset, with thick and comfortable velour earpads, a very adjustable design, solid battery life, and a slew of features. Gaming headsets often try to offer a pretty wide soundstage, so even a stereo signal sounds accurate enough.

When you connect the ASTRO product to the ASTRO Command Center, it will display the current firmware version on the upper left. To make sure your headphones are on, you can put them on the Dock and wait for the lights to appear that indicate that your headphones are charging.

This has removed the lag and made my spatial audio/3D audio in games like MCC and PUBG what they were on my Xbox one X, along with allowing me to keep my EQ presets. There will be rare circumstances when the software will not provide a more recent update due to internet connection problems or your firewall / security software blocking the ASTRO Command Center from checking for one.
