Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Wireless Multiplatform Amplified Gaming Headset

Mic quality sounded like a mcdonalds drive thru, soft ware didn't even work so I couldnt even configure the microphone or audio. Also replayed what you said into the mic back into the head phones so you could hear yourself.

Constantly disconnects. If you don't have constant sound coming through the headset the battery saving feature will turn your headset off. The app has a function to disable this but the function doesn't work. The app doesn't function correctly. It freezes. You have to either restart your system of uninstall and reinstall the app. Every time you start your PC the app changes you preferred output and input device.

Have had this headset for nearly a year so far and have had issues with it from day one. The audio quality itself is very good and the earcups are comfortable for long sessions and it's not too heavy. That's about all the pros I can think of. My biggest problem is how frequently it will disconnect wirelessly, for seemingly no reason, but will try to reconnect but 9/10 times I have to turn it off re-plug the receiver and turn it on again for it to reconnect properly (mainly used for PC, doesn't seem to happen as often on the Xbox though), but then sometimes when it will blast the full volume even though it's set to 0 on PC and needs to redo the whole process again, this happens maybe 1/10 times. The build quality it good in some places but rubbish in others. The hinge is all metal leading into the earcups, I think the it's a metal pivot inside too under the plastic, and the plastic shells are solid and don't creek. However, they've only used simple double-sided tape to stick the material for the headband and earcups on so within a week my headband started to peel off with only like 2mm for adhesive holding it on, I've since gotten a sleeve that zippers over it. The earcups are no better and I recently had to reglue the material back onto the foam but I've now just noticed today that the seam on the other cup has torn and will need to be completely replaced now. I had contacted Turtlebeach support originally about the disconnection issues but they didn't offer any help besides the usual reinstall the software or check for firmware updates, all the things you would try first, although it did work proper for about a week before the disconnection issues returned. It seems to mainly do it after audio has finished playing, like if I watch a Youtube video and it finishes so I go to play another, in the time between videos when there's no audio being played is when it disconnects, but it will also do it mid call on like discord. After all that I CANNOT recommend these to anyone, especially considering they're at the $400 mark, I'd expect them to work without issue.

WHEN, when they work they are great, feel good on your head, the sound is wicked. BUT, the app to go with them is shocking, Swarm is a useless app you're stuck with that will mess with your headset. Have had to hard reset them multiple times now. Even on special, these ain't worth it.

Worst and most overpriced piece of crap I have used in my life the headset did a 360 as I have tried to put it on and slammed me on the head leaving a lump then spent the next hour trying to find out how to un mute myself. The mic is horrendous and low quality and the noise cancelling is horrible

Definitely recommend these very awesome and cool ❤️

I bought 2 of these, 1 for home 1 for the office. Both have constant disconnection issues from PC. I am constantly having to pull out the dongle and plug it back in. To update the firmware for the headphones you need to do it from an app on your phone!!!???? When the firmware isn't updated for PC, the volume is fixed to max (extremely deafening) Other than that, when they work they sound great

Good features but doesn't sound as good as the Stealth 700 Gen 2, those sounded perfect to me. So for me I returned them and am going to buy the Stealth 700 Gen 2 instead since I can't find anything else that sounds as good (very clear and punchy). It is a shame since in every other aspect it is a step up for the most part, the Stealth 700 Gen 2 had very bad build quality and does not last as long as you'd hope. If you aren't as sensitive as me to not much else sounding good enough as the Gen 2, then you probably will enjoy this headset. Biggest negatives are probably the volume wheel doesn't feel like I could be precise with it (skipping over steps), and the firmware update process takes almost 15 minutes.

Bought one pair it had soooo many problems so it got replaced with another pair, this pair also had heaps of problems to even list. Soo if you see this and wants this pair, do yourself a favour and get your self SteelSeries nova 7

Brought this to replace my Astro A50s Gen 4 (if you know the problems then you’ll understand) but DANG this headset is crispy! In my opinion anyway.. It has AI mic monitoring which can be a little annoying. Small sounds are much clearer to hear, like footsteps or far away gunshots. It’s a tad tight to wear but you kinda faze that out after a bit. Glasses friendly but mine get caught on the back of the earmuffs. Super noise cancelling, it was raining cats and dogs and I didn’t even notice. I totally only got them for the long battery life (80 HOURS!!!) and the fact, well my Astros are in the process of a dramatic death… I only really use it on my Xbox X but probably will use them with my pc. 10/10 makes me feel bad for not using turtle beaches sooner.
