    Is anybody other than me having problems with Microsoft's over ear headset for Xbox one?


    I've had this headset for less than a year now and they are already not functioning properly. The mic makes me sound like a robot and the sound coming from the speakers is starting to get a lot of static. I'm not surprised that they are going bad already, Xbox
    doesn't have the highest quality hardware, but they cost close to a hundred dollars and i feel like if they make something cheap, then they shouldn't charge so much... I'm writing this post because I can't be the only person feeling taken advantage of. There
    are probably many people who are out there that feel the same and we should let the company know, because if they have our best interests in mind they will fix it.

    :)

    TB Ear Force Stealth 500X

    Anybody else see this headset coming out in a little over month and a half. Completely wireless chat and game audio. Not sure what TB found out that the other headset manufacturers could not for using wireless chat but for $229 it does sound interesting.

    3rd Party Xbox 360 Headsets

    So my third Microsoft Wireless Headset is about to die on me and I've decided I'm going to invest in a third party headset.

    I've been skimming over Turtle's Beach's offerings and so far the following two headsets seem to be their best offerings:

    Ear Force X41

    Xbox™ Headsets - The Best Gaming Headsets for Xbox One- Turtle Beach®



    Ear Force XP500

    Xbox™ Headsets - The Best Gaming Headsets for Xbox One- Turtle Beach®



    The XP500 would be nice for the full wireless experience but the X41s do offer 10 hours more of battery life.

    Does anyone have any opinions on the X41s or any other headsets (be they other Turtle Beaches or another third-party vendor's offerings)?

    When will 5.1 via Optical Audio be available for Xbox One?

    Third party headset makers have no choice but to wait until Microsoft releases the Headset Adaptor which suits the way in which this new audio technology is distributed to the mass populace. Microsoft are demanding everyone buys a new headset with audio
    adaptor bundled i.e. headphones that are tuned to provide the highest quality audio from the Xbox One™ Audio Adapter. The Titanfall Ear Force Atlas Official Gaming Headset, Ear Force XO7 and Ear Force XO4 have been pushed back to March 7, 2014 at Amazon. There
    is NO way we are getting Dolby Digital 5.1 over optical in the near future as it has and always been I suspect that Microsoft would have it any other way.

    Wireless Headset for Chat?

    Is the Turtle Beach headset just a single ear piece? I just want a single earpiece for chatting, not the over the head with cans for each ear style. The 360 had this product for years, doesn't make much sense not to have a comparable product made by Microsoft
    for the Xbox One.

    Headset gaming, have you really tried it?

    I personally use two different types of headsets, over-ear for competitive gaming and movies/music so I can hear every sound and note (Wh-1000xm3 and Ear Force X12). In-ear headphones when my ears feel like the Sun's temperature from the over-ear one.

    Xbox wireless headset

    Thanks for the reply but alot of us cant wear full head cans.. I can't wear personally because they make my ears sweat and make me feel a little dizzy because of the pressure over my ears.. I prefer 1 in ear or 1 small over ear headset.. I know some peeps
    can't wear full headsets or 1 full covering ear because of the pressure on the cartlige on the ear and or have piercings.. It's just a shame we have to get tethered by a wire when we used to have freedom of movement no matter what we were doing and still having
    the capability of communication while doing it.. :/

    XBOne / Optical Audio Out / Dolby Digital

    hollowDoubt your Turtle Beach Headsets will not fully function even if Dolby Digital 5.1 comes in a future update. Let me explain you will have to buy a Titanfall Ear Force Atlas official gaming headset, Ear Force XO Seven or Ear Force XO Four which have
    the new Microsoft Xbox One Audio Adapter bundled. These Headphones are tuned to provide the highest quality audio from the Xbox One™ Audio Adapter as well as a tethered not wireless chat connection. The individual Microsoft Xbox One Audio Adapter will be released
    to Xbox 360 third party headset manufacturers sometime after the release of the next gen. headsets. Now here is where Microsoft have thrown us a major curve ball, you cannot use the DD5.1 sound at the same time as you have the Xbox One™ Audio Adapter plugged
    into your Xbox One wireless controller. This is because the game sound is now coming from your Xbox One to the controller and then to your headset via the tethered connector, the same goes for chat audio.
