Review: Outstanding - When it comes to the world of gaming, a pair of headphones can be crucial in order to be success. I recently started looking for a new pair of headphones since my last pair had been stolen and the pair before that had the frame snapped. After a lot of careful research I came to the conclusion that purchasing the Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset, which is the same pair I had that got stolen, was the right choice for me. Here are some of the reasons I believe that these headphones are the right choice for any gamer, casual or hardcore. Sound: The Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset offers very high quality 40 mm speakers that allow the user to hear in game noises that you can’t hear through the TV or on any base headset. These sounds play in the headphone in which the direction of the sound is coming from, which I think is the coolest part. Price: There are headsets out there anywhere from $10 to over $200. These only cost $35, which is a fair and reasonable price for these, and actually they could be a lot more money for what they offer. Microphone: The microphone on the headset is always one of the more underrated things about a headset. The microphone has a pretty high-sensitivity so you don’t have it right next to your mouth and from what I have heard from friends, is very clear and doesn’t every echo. Frame: The frame of the headset is not the best, but it does the job. The Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset is the cheapest and “worst” headset that Turtle Beach offers and is the most uncomfortable headset they sell. With that being said they are pretty comfortable and I am usually able to play a couple hours without them getting uncomfortable. Durability: I had this headset for over a year before it was stolen, which is way longer than I have ever had any headset in my lifetime of playing video games. Very rarely would I have any issues with this headset. They never lost any of its quality in sound or in what I transmitted over microphone. They also did not snap and break in the first nine months like a more expensive competitor I had purchased previously. Overall, if you are looking for a solid and reliable pair of headphones that will elevate your gaming experience and without break the bank all at the same time, then the Turtle Beach: Ear Force Recon 50X Stereo Gaming Headset are the right choice for you. For how much you are paying for you are more than getting your moneys worth with these. I would highly recommend and would give it 4.5/5 stars!
Review: Excellent Value - For Entry-Level Gaming Headset - For this price point, I can't say anything less than 5 stars for this headset. I was originally going to go with a different product until seeing that the Ear Force Recon 50(X) series, was to release on 9/25/15. I decided to give it a try, and figured why not. For $40 it seemed like a steal! For the most part, it is a steal. PROS: --The headset itself is good looking, at first I thought the green would be a little off-putting compared to the color of my other accessories and peripherals, but it actually looks really great. Of course, this part is subjective. --Very lightweight. This thing only weighs a few ounces, and other than the light sensation of the cups on your ears, you could not even know you have it on. --The mic is detachable, which is awesome. --Further, the mic sounds great. It picks up my voice with a pretty good clarity for an entry-level gaming headset, and the attached covering of the mic essentially works as a pop filter. In fact, I have a fan blowing right by me and it manages to cancel the vast majority of the wind rushing into it from the fan. Solid mic. --The sound is pretty good. Bass and highs are on par for this price point, with the mids being the weakest link of the sound stage. For music and movies it is probably not the best choice, although it would still work more than adequately for those uses. Gaming is where it really shines, and the sound quality is more than good enough for my gaming needs. Footsteps are defined, gunshots and explosions sound great, and voices and dialog sound just fine. --Adaptability and Connectivity: It connects to the Xbox One controller that has the 3.5mm plug-in, and works on any Xbox One controller with the Turtle Beach or Microsoft headset adapter. My controller has the plug directly on it, so it works flawlessly without the need of an adapter. Further, it includes an adapter to change the mic/headphones to two separate plugs and I tested it on my PC and it works great for both sound and mic as well. Even though it is marketed as an Xbox One headset, it works just fine on PC and my iPhone. I don't have a PS4 to try it on, but I would imagine it would work just fine. CONS: --Like mentioned above, the sound is pretty much on par. Nothing special and certainly doesn't blow your mind with audio fidelity. However for this price range I can't imagine it gets much better. Mids could be a bit better with frequency range. --The cord is rather short. Granted, this model is targeted specifically towards the Xbox One, so plugging it into the controller with the cord length is more than enough, and nice because you don't have a huge bundle of cord on your lap when it is plugged into your controller. However, for use with a PC or other device you might need to purchase a 4 pole 3.5mm extension cable to make it a bit longer. I managed to find several on desertcart for a few bucks, so if this is a problem for you I would recommend going the extension cable route instead of disregarding this headset. OVERALL: I rated 5, but would probably give closer to a 4.5. For $40 (current price at time of writing, the day this headset has been released), it is a great deal. I am very happy with it, and use it as my main headset for my Xbox now, and a backup for my PC. Very comfortable, lightweight, sound is more than adequate in terms of quality, and it works with a multitude of devices. For gaming, it is just an all-around great entry-level headset.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but audio cuts out
*by J***D on January 8, 2026*

Works quite well though the audio can be a bit weird sometimes otherwise the mic is decent and works well for casual gaming.
