Restored ASTRO A10 Gaming Headset Gen 2 Wired Headset - Over-ear gaming headphones with flip-to-mute microphone, 32 mm drivers, compatible with PlayStation, PC, Black (Refurbished)

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 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...

I just received the gaming headset from Astro's A10 Gen 2 and my son said he can't believe how good it is the microphone quality is great and is really flexible it makes it very clear to understand what you are saying while in a party with friends the built in headset makes muting your microphone easy by simply flipping to mute also it is extremely comfortable to keep keep on your head because the foam earpads and being able to adjust the volume is really simple no need to pause mid game to fix sound settings because just by turning the headset cable up or down to turns down or boost up the volume in game audio is extremely on point with the surroundings and the cable to plug in the headset is long so there is no need to worry on struggling to put it on whether you play on PC, PS4,PS5 or even mobile and due to being a wire headset there is no need to worry with how much battery there is left on the headset he said this is one of the best headsets he has used due to being very comfortable and has a good quality microphone with it thank you so much Astro for this beautiful headset my son is very grateful for this product. I recommend this headset for anyone that is looking for a good quality headset to use while playing video games.
