Turtle Beach Battle Buds In-Ear Gaming Headset - Mobile & PC with 3.5mm, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, PlayStation – Lightweight, In-Line Controls, Black

Over the ear does not do it for me. It is too hot. The band across the top of my head is real. I literally have a valley now. Earbuds are the logical solution, but noting really did it for me thus far. Microphone quality suffered. Not anymore.The mic quality here is excellent. It isn't studio quality, but I get good compliments in DayZ or Rust. I use the mic in conjunction with Nvidia Broadcast for noise cancelation. These have decent isolation, but I ham in a noisy environment and no raw mic can drowned out everything around me. The mic is amazing.The sound quality is good. You get decent directional audio, but not what you would get in a good over the ear set up. It is more than I need and I can tell where enemies are coming from along with gun shots. The bass is good, the highs are good, the mids are decent.It all comes down to fit here. If you don't get a good fit, you won't get good sound. I use the largest tips with the smallest wings. I do not need to push the buds in far. They seal outside of my canal. Sound was fairly terrible with no passive cancellation when using the smaller tips and pushing them in the canal. I get absolutely no fatigue and the buds stay in place until I want to remove them. I can do 10 hour sessions no problem. I can't say that everyone will have the same fit as we all have different ears.I highly recommend. Nothing comes close to these at 20-30$. These have spent a lot of time at 19.99 and 29.99.

These are fantastic, the sound quality while playing the game is incredible. You can hear things you wouldn't before with a headset or without, the sound and details you can hear while listening to music is outstanding. I had serious doubt for the price but by God they are incredible, not to mention the super sensitive and clear mic. It can pick up whispers and be as clear as a cleaned window, plus they're beautiful. 10/10 definitely recommend

UPDATED!The smallest mushroom tip set was used, had someone else’s ear crust on them which was a lil suspect, but they work great! Different sizes of in-ear stabilizers along with the different sized mushroom tips make these super customizable for comfort, which is pretty great thus far. Sound is clear and crisp, setting on the xbox allow for mixing of in-game sound and voice chat sound, in-line mute and volume control works as expected. Was missing the carrying pouch.UPDATE: carrying pouch was found! Comfort is an issue *for me* because of the bulb behind the speakers. Behavior, compatibility, sound wuality both directions is great.

These headphones are durable and comfortable to wear with amazing sound quality

These IEM's (In-Ear Microphones) are pretty good in the sense that their sound quality dang near goes unrivaled (seldom higher-priced brands) and they work with my controller. I play games every day, so I'm practically always wearing these. With that in mind, I've noticed that these ear buds in particular leave the inner flap of my ear raw from extended wear. As somebody who plays anywhere from four to ten plus hours in one sitting, it can get pretty bad. One time, my inner ear flaps went completely raw (on both sides) and I had to stop wearing these completely so my wounds could scab and properly heal. The most painful couple of months (gaming-wise) I've ever experienced. In addition, since I play so often and I spend a large portion of my days with these ear buds in, naturally, my ears produce wax and that makes all the rubber pieces on the buds move around and out of place, resulting in me having to adjust and clean them quite a bit. Other than the inner ear chafing and constantly having to readjust the fitting, the sound is great and the microphone is pretty good too.I wish Turtle Beach would make a different version of these that are more comfortable to wear for long periods of time with the same if not better audio and mic quality. If they ever did, I'd get them no questions as I love IEM's.

The sound and mic are decent. Not particularly high quality but loud and clear. This product fulfills a niche decently. There aren't a lot of things this small that have a mic near the mouth and don't need a battery or USB -- this combination of size, sound, and cabling is what I needed for traveling and taking zoom+discord calls. I might try some mild gaming with them, too. I also regularly use some AirPods Pro which is difficult comparison.. the airpods are *a lot* more technology and cost. But for those who have this as a reference point I'd say these turtle beach buds do better with their mic in competing noise, and this is almost entirely just because you can get it closer to your mouth. Otherwise, they're less comfortable (significantly) but usable. The airpods actually fail me when it comes to pairing them to a PC and trying to have a call around other people or even a mild breeze, their mic is just so poor in that scenario unless I'm quite loud which I don't want to be.So what do I really rate this thing?Listening sound quality: 3.5 / 5 (weighed upwards due to the price point)Speaking sound quality: 3.9 / 5 (surprisingly good for size/price? definitely imperfect)Comfort: 2.5 / 5 (worried about wearing these more than an hour...)Aesthetic: 3.0 /5 (look and feel cheap, extra plastic for a logo, but better than headphones, i guess?)Design: 2.5 (these rely on an attempt to be supported by your ear that is pretty weird, but is probably the only way to support the wire and their size... big compared to airpods, but tiny compared to full headphones)The total for my pair however is a 1/5 because they're absolutely used already. They've covered in dust, the box came with the stickers open and clearly having been reapplied a dozen times, and there's even a dent in the metal mesh that covers one of the speakers. I bought "new." That said I'm getting on a flight shortly with no time to return so I wiped them down and am keeping them.

Great for the price , seem durable
