ASTRO Gaming A50 Wireless Dolby Gaming Headset for PlayStation 4 and PC - Black/Blue (2017 Model)
I've been using them for over a month and of course they never cease to amaze me. I am a demanding "gamer" and I like to have the best. Before acquiring them I already knew of their existence but of course I thought that I could acquire them as well as much cheaper, of course I was wrong and well. I will divide my opinion into several parts, I will start by listing the models that I had previously tested (models of friends and also some returned for not having met expectations) Xiberia t19, hyperX cloud 2, corsair Avoid, tritton katana, razer kraken, Schenheisser Game One, Turtle Beach elite 800. last two were over €240 and did not reach the sole. helmet analysis: -Comfort: I don't usually spend too many hours addicted as a rule, but I have already spent a few days from 11am to almost midnight playing, stopping to eat, going to the bathroom and little else, they are not noticeable in the head. By fitting the columns snugly to your head, they feel like a glove, they do not squeeze anything and you can also lean forward so that they do not move of the site, of all the ones I've tried the most comfortable and with more than enough. The pads provided are very comfortable and do not sweat like other synthetic leathers. disassemble by magnets, they don't move at all and are very easy to remove and put on, a very good system. The pads and the part of the headband are interchangeable with the "mod kit" which has a price around 40 € (not worth it, they are perfect like that. Comfort a 10, they are the most comfortable I have tried all.- Battery: As I have already said above, I have been playing for more than 12 hours (at a high volume) and the last line of the 4 that the indicator has at the base, when there is 5 % or less it turns red, in my case after almost 13 hours they remained in the first line but it did not even turn red.Then the autonomy is incredible, keep in mind that I put them almost at full volume (they sound brutal), so at normal volume they will surely arrive without problems at 15:00 the manufacturer says In fact, I think any normal person I would surely listen to them shorter than me Battery has 10, since they are the inhalambricos with mlike autonomy.- Microphone: Honestly, I haven't tried the previous generations of the a50, that they give birth on YouTube and the forums, but the microphone of these being sincere is incredible. I have a YouTube channel and when I see my videos commented on I am amazed at the fidelity they transmit given that this is a headset mic.plus it outperforms the microphone of the HyperX cloud 2, anyone who has or has tried them will know the microphone is very good,plus the mute function of the microphone is comfortable, fast, and instinctive, the mic down transmits, high, it's mute, and the noise cancellation is amazing. Mic sensitivity and noise cancellation can be adjusted using PC software. 10 sounds: these are the best that I have tried, do not pay attention to the "haters" who, because they cannot spend 300 €, they say that there are better ones, not for games, any headphones with audio (for music) better than this It also has a much higher price tag, I know what I'm p talk. The virtual 7.1 is spectacular, of course the Astro software is amazing, when I play shooters with my friends and they grab me from behind, they don't try to stab me anymore, because you hear them coming and you have the time to turn around XD. They position the sound brutally and with spectacular audio quality you will discover sounds that you did not know. The selector of the 3 presets is configurable via the Astro Gaming PC software, although the ones that come are very good for any situation, be it games, movies or music. Also with this program you can customize the presets to your liking, although I don't recommend it as it is quite complex. The bass although they are not revolutionary (I am a lover of subwoofers), they are not distorted at all, I do not know. They are short for nothing. Its a 10, no headset I've tried for gaming comes close. - Integrated "Mixamp": If your friends are talking too loudly via chat or you want to focus on the game, you can instinctively adjust the chat/game balance on the headset itself. It has several levels and of course c This is a great advantage. For example, the Turtle Beach elite 800 also have this adjustment, but in addition to having fewer levels of adjustment, it is much less instinctive and comfortable than in these. the information we need in a small space of the base, we know how much charge we have left, if the dolby 7.1 is on, or by the color of the electricity symbol if it is in pc mode (white) or in ps4 mode (red, as in the photo) In addition, the intensity of the lighting of said screen is adjustable through the Astro Gaming program.- Software: It has the advantage of being scalable and in fact when it is connected to the PC for the first time and the Astro program, warns us that an update is available, as I have already mentioned, it has many possibilities of adjustment, it is incredible.- Construction and design: The materials used are of high quality, they are light, durable and of course they are very pretty. very content considering its materials, which are wireless and with u don't have such a long battery life.Of course, they don't weigh at all when put on, I also want to make it clear that this headset was not given to me in exchange for a bulky or exaggerated review, I got them Bought out of pocket paying full price and my review is objective and sincere, I have taken the trouble to do such a thorough review due to all of the unfair "haters" reviews floating around the network. You will not regret buying them, only if their maximum price is 300 €, do not pay more, I pay 297 € (premium) If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask them via the question section below below, I will answer you with pleasure.
