I’ve had this headset for a few months and I love it a lot. It really is great. I used the XO three for years and then got this as an upgrade of sorts. But I love turtle beach they make great headsets.
The wireless connection on these Xbox Stealth 600 Gen 2s is MUCH MUCH better than the first gen Stealth 600s for the Xbox. I had to take those back because they always disconnected. These new ones stay connected to the Xbox and as a bonus, the controls are far superior. I also love the fact it uses a USB-C charge port. Love em.
Lucked out as my local Walmart had the Gen2 Xbox version in stock and selling it for only $87. Snagged a pair and cancelled Best Buy pre-order. Initial impressions are that they are much improved over the Gen1 model. Really happy thus far. Only wish that the charging cable was usb c to usb c instead of usb a but no biggie. They charge quickly and seem to easily last the advertised 15hrs
anybody? I can't even use these because in party chat my friends can now hear my A/C turn on, dishwasher running, doors closing etc. The background noise on these is absolutely ridiculous, never had this issue with a gaming headset in the past. So frustrating...
Can someone please help me... the little light on the headset is staying solid red. On the manual it says it should only be solid red while it’s charging, even when I unplug it, it stays solid red. It is also not connecting to my controller. It is paired and everything, I have used it multiple times, it just randomly stopped working.
Just found your channel. Really like how you do reviews. Getting back into gaming and was on the fence of switching brands of headsets. I will wait for the 700 review. Btw how often should we check software updates with the headsets? Thanks!!
Thanks for the kind words! Whenever you purchase a new headset, it's smart to check for firmware updates before using them. Once that's been done, if the headset works great I don't stress too much about checking frequently. If you ever have bugs with a headset, I would check at least once a month to see if it was ever fixed. I'm looking forward to covering/discussing the Stealth 700 as well!
One thing I've noticed if your running 2 pairs of these in the same room they interfere with eachothers signal a bit I've never ran an xbox and ps4 one in the same room so I can't speak on that but with ps4 they distort each other a bit
Anytime, hope you enjoy them. Mic is a bit sensitive for background noise so if you have issues with that some other options may work better. These sound great at this price though!
My thoughts on owning a 600 g1 on ps4 and a g2 on xbox series S. They both sound equally awesome. The g2 may be slightly more comfortable. The g1 gives you a vocal cue of what audio mode you are in vs a series of beeps in g2. The sound quality seems on spec the same as the 700, minus bluetooth. Which is useless for anything but music. Mic quality is the same. Range on the dongle ps4 G1 is better than series S proprietary wireless with range. Dolby Atmos os xbox series x sounds fantastic.
How on earth is this sound awesome are u deaf? My astro a10 sound like is 500 dollars headphones compares to this, is so terrible im mad, sound muffle, cant spot footstep anymore, I just orderer a replacement cable for my a10 and this is going to the trash, sound like 10 dollars headphones
@@albertotrigosbueno5547 I use Dolby Atmos and finely tuned the sound. The positional audio is spot on. I haven't had any muffled sounds. If you press the power button once it kicks on a mode that amps such sounds. Sorry you didn't like it. My mini review was more matter of fact that gushing about audio quality.
@@matthewrobbins663 first, it sound like way worse than astro a10 anyway, and sound is dinamic, one time I hear footstep (very bad but atleast I hear) and the next one is completely missing because there where other sound going one and it eq itself, I have a custom music in apex, and when lifeline says lets go, is that bad, it completely missed just because the sound of landing. This headset are just horrible , no matter how I put in Dolly atmos, I feel scammed and I can't afford anything until next month
@@albertotrigosbueno5547Your use is clearly different than mine. Let me make a change to my mini review. It's great for non-competitive gaming and media viewing. The wireless option on the series Xbox is nice.
@Matthew Robbins yo, idk if u use cheap headset all your life, I used high end gaming headset and non gaming high end too, astro a50 and Sony mx3 along with a bunch of middle end ones There is no way a person can say they sound amazing even for no gaming, they are 20 dollars headset at best, and for gaming I used cheapest Chinese with more dinamic audio. In fairness they can be a 40 to 50 dollars headset if done right, but the dinamic and eq destroyed everything doesn't matter if u use atmos, they are in built eq and dinamic
Been through 2 of the brand new TB 600 stealth gen 2s in just 1 week... it turns off randomly then it doesn’t turn back on..... the solid red light (according to the directions) means it’s charging.. mines been unplugged all day and it’s still solid red.... 🤷🏻♂️ first time I ever bought TBs and without a doubt will be the LAST. I also have heard this on other channels in the comment section please be aware before you buy!!!!!
I’m looking to upgrade from recon 70 after 2 years of use, by chance do these headphones have removable pads? Not a deal breaker, but my recons have an earmuff coming off, I just want to see if I can potentially replace them easily if they fall off for whatever reason.
Fantastic review! I had the 600 gen 1 and just ordered the gen 2. My only complaint with the gen 1 version was that I almost had to have the game volume knob all of the way up in most games I played. I'm just hoping the gen 2 is a little louder/better sounding.
They stated the drivers are improved. I never had to hit full volume on Call of Duty because it got a little too loud for me. Hopefully you have the same experience.
@@GadgetryTech Great Informative Video! Hey my friend, does the Black/Blue PS4/5 ones work on The Xbox? I like the colourway better than the Xbox Black/Green ones. Please let me know & thanks bro.🙏
During the video when you were using the Mic thru my head phone I heard screeching when your hand was near it do you have any complaints about that or is it just a hope no one heard it? Does it happen all the time?
The noise was because I'm Italian and talk with my hands too much haha. When you touch the mic with your hands it will pick up noise from the contact/covering the mic itself. It's normal for almost any boom when you touch it, and a byproduct of me touching it too much when doing the demo. It's a real enough event where I didn't want to hide/mask that noise. Hope that helps address your concern. If not let me know
I got these because the 700 gen 2 doesn’t have independent game chat volume control. Which blows my mind that a more expensive product doesn’t have the most basic functionality.
Is hooking them up to the computer the only way to adjust the mic monitoring? I can't use my smart phone? Asking cuz I dont have a computer and I get tired of hearing the sounds in my room thru the mic.
Question: so I know that there is 4 different hearing modes but I can’t tell witch is witch so if you could narrow that down That would be great. Thanks!
Why does it have a dongle if it uses Xbox connectivity? My stealth 600 gen 1 for my Xbox one X project scorpio had no dongle. Someone please explain and do I need the dongle to connect stealth 600 gen2 (non max) to my series S
Hey I had a question that not alot of people know about. If you own the USB dongle can you connect to your PC and Xbox at the same time? Reason why I would want to be connected to both is so I can use discord on my pc while listening to game audio on my xbox at the same time.
These headsets have active noise cancellation which turtle beach describe as eliminating background noise for the user of the headset. But do they have noise cancellation where background noise is eliminated for the other people in the chat? I thought that was the meaning of active noise cancellation?
There is no such technology. There are only two types of noice cancellation. One type is where it prevents u from hearing sound from YOUR surroundings. And then there is no ice cancellation we’re when you talk in to your mic it will block noise from YOUR surroundings so other people your talking to don’t hear it.
My friend and I have a problem with our headsets plugged into the Xbox series x controller (common problem, strange noise in chat and in games). Does anyone know if these wireless headset (or any) eliminate this problem? I would be very grateful for the info
im probably not gonna get an answer but is there a way to turn off the setting where you can hear everything around you? like it takes audio from the outside and displays them through the speakers on the headphones. any way to turn that off?
Can they be used with other devices as well? Can it connect to my Xbox S, and later if I want to play something on my phone, they can connect to my cellphone as well?
How is the max volume compared to previous gen? I have the Stealth 700 and they don't get very loud with volume set to max on the headset. I'm assuming this is because Audio settings in the Xbox OS are disabled when these are connected. When I plug the headphones I use for my PC (HyperX Cloud Alpha) into my controller, the audio settings are available and I'm able to hear everything much better when turning up the volume there. Are these settings still disabled when using the gen 2 Stealth? It seems like they are defaulted to 50% when using my Stealth 700.
Settings are disabled when the headset has its own audio controller built in. They receive a source a full volume, then you adjust the volume via headset. With that being said, I still find the 700 Gen 2s very powerful. They have great bass response and good handling when at high volumes.
@@GadgetryTech Thanks for the reply! Last question. I've heard that the 600 gets louder than the 700. Any truth to this in your experience? Thanks again!
Hey I had just got one of them and when I’m in game chat it mutes Everyone and I can’t unmute them I’ve turned them on and off to see if that does anything but if you know anything that I’m doing wrong let me know
mine randomly disconnects when playing on my xbox series. itll be on (amazing sound) and in minutes or seconds it just disconnects, and the headset is still on! i turned off all bluetooths nearby, charged it fully, , did a hard reset, updated the firmware, and still disconnects! mine might be just a defect because ugh! lol
I've been having an issue but with the stealth 600 gen 2 usb xbox version but the mic picks up every sound in my house and sounds like I'm talking through a can anyone know a fix. I'm debating on just returning it and getting a steelseries
i just got them and for some reason my xbox says that it can’t fine a microphone in the party chat and i can’t turn them off and there’s a red light where it says if there on or off
Would u happen to know how to fix the mic i just bought this well the usb gen 2. Updated on pc then put on my xbox series x hear everything says mics on tried the steps they have like recorded a message i hear nothing i hook it back to pc says mics on to tried messing with the monitoring nothing on pc when u look at the mic 🎤 in sounding settings it has the test option and show its not picking up anything
I've heard that the only problem with the stealth 600 is that the mic monitoring is terrible and it picks up way too much background noise. If I don't own a PC and can't change it with the app is it really that bad?
It's a very sensitive mic. In a quiet environment it's not a big deal but it will pick up key strokes and background noise quite a bit. I would borrow a friends Windows laptop just to adjust the side tone. It will help you, but people in chat will still here it though.
Yeah , you can use atmos with any headset once you download the app. You need to go in and change the eq on the app though. Its not great in atmos on the standard eq setting. But once you tweak to your own liking the atmos app is brilliant
My stealth 600gen 2 that ive had for 8months now cant pair for its life and the mic doesn’t work sometimes. Tbh I didnt even notice a difference compared to the gen1 its just a gimmick. But they are comfortable tho and still sound great. If you can get the gen 1 for cheaper id recommend getting that
Do you recommend me to get the 700s or The Pulse 3D headset, even though we have no information about the Pulse 3D headset. Also your reviews are great, thanks.
Scrolling through all videos to see if anyone has any different suggestions on the mic. I’ve tried everything suggested but everyone says it sounds like I’m talking from far away or down a hallway. Sound is great. But the mic has never worked right. Have tried all settings and positions. Updating. All of it. I just don’t use them if I’m playing a shooter
I have a BIG problem with this headset. I tested it with my Series X, One X and PC with the Wireless USB Adapter. On ALL three devices I have sound drops in between every few seconds. Latest software is installed v.1.2.9, actually NO new version released yet from Turtle Beach. What I also did is a HARD RESET with the headset. Finally I went to the shop where I bought it and did a replacement to get another one. But the same prob is still there. Anyone can help me to solve this prob???
I got the exact same ones in January and now I have to keep the mic stick at a certain angle for it to work and there’s a lot of static idk if it’s just mine or what but I’m annoyed
Hey quick question I can't seem to find it anywhere... The presets for sounds what does 1 beep 2 beep 3 beep and 4 beeps mean ? In the old turtle beaches I had I think the lady would say like "bass boost enabled" or something
I recently bought it and its not charging. I plugged the usb from my headset to my Xbox as it said in the manual and let it sit for like five hours. But it’s still dead, any idea why?
Guys I just got this headset the mic monitoring is so high and everything In the background can be heard anyone know how to fix it. I tied going to the audio hub and I connected both usb and headset to my pc and it says to connect them as if it doesn’t read it and I’ve tried many many times I’m losing it
Sorry but one more thing, I'm now buying the headset thanks to your help, I think is crazy good too. Keep doing these videos personally i think their really well made and professional. Don't stop it's good. But also what keyboard have you got, I have a slight white theme in gaming gear for my twitch streaming channel and though I would ask about the keyboard while I was here. Again sorry, hope I'm not using too much of your time.
There is no headphone jack on these. Simultaneous listening is challenging with almost any wireless headset. One potential solution is to use Bluetooth on the Stealth 700 Gen 2 to pair to your computer, then use the normal wireless connection to Xbox. The Stealth 700 G2 supports Bluetooth + Wireless simultaneously. The trick is making sure your computer supports it, as Windows 10 is known to be finicky with Bluetooth.
@@GadgetryTech Thanks for the response. Bluetooth is not a viable solution for me because with all of these headsets when you turn them on it automatically turns on your xbox with it which sucks + bluetooth is not very good quality. Whenever you review headsets if you could mention if it has a headphone jack I would be very grateful! Thanks again.
Hey bruh, so I got these as a back up. I have the elite 800x and they are the bomb! Now when I use these I hear fine but can’t hear nothing on chat. Do u know why?
been having a really hard time connecting it to the turtle beach audio hub on Mac or iPhone, haven't been able to monitor my microphone so now everyone can hear everything that happens around me.. kinda annoying. anyone find another way?
I have the same thing, on an Xbox I pressed the configure button next to the usb and the pressed configure on my Xbox and it connected lol if that helps
Listen turn the headset on then press and hold the sync button (next to charge plug) till green light rapid flashes then again press the sync on your Xbox console (doesn’t support 360 or original Xbox)

@@GadgetryTech Thanks for the reply! Last question. I've heard that the 600 gets louder than the 700. Any truth to this in your experience? Thanks again!
Hey I had just got one of them and when I’m in game chat it mutes
Everyone and I can’t unmute them I’ve turned them on and off to see if that does anything but if you know anything that I’m doing wrong let me know
mine randomly disconnects when playing on my xbox series. itll be on (amazing sound) and in minutes or seconds it just disconnects, and the headset is still on! i turned off all bluetooths nearby, charged it fully, , did a hard reset, updated the firmware, and still disconnects! mine might be just a defect because ugh! lol
I got the same one for Xbox but mine keeps unpairing, is there something I can do to stop it from unpairing from my Xbox?
It picks up EVERYTHING in the background, how do I fix that?
I've been having an issue but with the stealth 600 gen 2 usb xbox version but the mic picks up every sound in my house and sounds like I'm talking through a can anyone know a fix.
I'm debating on just returning it and getting a steelseries
i just got them and for some reason my xbox says that it can’t fine a microphone in the party chat and i can’t turn them off and there’s a red light where it says if there on or off
Hey I was just wondering what would happen if the battery does not last long anymore? if it isn't under warranty
Would u happen to know how to fix the mic i just bought this well the usb gen 2. Updated on pc then put on my xbox series x hear everything says mics on tried the steps they have like recorded a message i hear nothing i hook it back to pc says mics on to tried messing with the monitoring nothing on pc when u look at the mic 🎤 in sounding settings it has the test option and show its not picking up anything
I've heard that the only problem with the stealth 600 is that the mic monitoring is terrible and it picks up way too much background noise. If I don't own a PC and can't change it with the app is it really that bad?
It's a very sensitive mic. In a quiet environment it's not a big deal but it will pick up key strokes and background noise quite a bit. I would borrow a friends Windows laptop just to adjust the side tone. It will help you, but people in chat will still here it though.
I get mine next week. I mostly wanted them for playing single player games. Does it support Dolby Atmos if I get that app on my Xbox One X?
Yeah , you can use atmos with any headset once you download the app. You need to go in and change the eq on the app though. Its not great in atmos on the standard eq setting. But once you tweak to your own liking the atmos app is brilliant
Only complaint on xbox is atmos does not let tou adjust chat vs sound levels
Are they louder than the 1st 600
My stealth 600gen 2 that ive had for 8months now cant pair for its life and the mic doesn’t work sometimes. Tbh I didnt even notice a difference compared to the gen1 its just a gimmick. But they are comfortable tho and still sound great. If you can get the gen 1 for cheaper id recommend getting that
Great video!
How can i fit my mic, i can hear myself on the headphones and im trying to just be able to turn up or down volume on my party chat and game chat
Do you recommend me to get the 700s or The Pulse 3D headset, even though we have no information about the Pulse 3D headset.
Also your reviews are great, thanks.
My platform is PS4 and PC sometimes
This isn’t the review for the 700s why u askin
Scrolling through all videos to see if anyone has any different suggestions on the mic. I’ve tried everything suggested but everyone says it sounds like I’m talking from far away or down a hallway. Sound is great. But the mic has never worked right. Have tried all settings and positions. Updating. All of it. I just don’t use them if I’m playing a shooter
I have a BIG problem with this headset. I tested it with my Series X, One X and PC with the Wireless USB Adapter. On ALL three devices I have sound drops in between every few seconds. Latest software is installed v.1.2.9, actually NO new version released yet from Turtle Beach. What I also did is a HARD RESET with the headset. Finally I went to the shop where I bought it and did a replacement to get another one. But the same prob is still there. Anyone can help me to solve this prob???
me too
Best headset l ve ever had lve had them for 9 months my old ones lasted a month
How can I fix the same headphones your reviewing the light on the bottom is red and I charged them all night and not working please reply 👍
Das wha happening to me idk how
I got the exact same ones in January and now I have to keep the mic stick at a certain angle for it to work and there’s a lot of static idk if it’s just mine or what but I’m annoyed
Hey quick question I can't seem to find it anywhere... The presets for sounds what does 1 beep 2 beep 3 beep and 4 beeps mean ? In the old turtle beaches I had I think the lady would say like "bass boost enabled" or something
Signature Sound (1 beep)
Bass Boost (2 beeps)
Bass + Treble Boost (3 beeps)
Vocal Boost (4 beeps)

I recently bought it and its not charging. I plugged the usb from my headset to my Xbox as it said in the manual and let it sit for like five hours. But it’s still dead, any idea why?
try plugging it into the usb port on the front of the xbox if u haven’t already that’s where i charge mine
I just bought these today, for some reason I can seem to get it to connect. Should try to connect it to my computer first before I return it??
Guys I just got this headset the mic monitoring is so high and everything In the background can be heard anyone know how to fix it. I tied going to the audio hub and I connected both usb and headset to my pc and it says to connect them as if it doesn’t read it and I’ve tried many many times I’m losing it
Sorry but one more thing, I'm now buying the headset thanks to your help, I think is crazy good too. Keep doing these videos personally i think their really well made and professional. Don't stop it's good. But also what keyboard have you got, I have a slight white theme in gaming gear for my twitch streaming channel and though I would ask about the keyboard while I was here. Again sorry, hope I'm not using too much of your time.
Just realised you have a new keyboard now on your latest video but do you still know what it was called or if you still have it.
I want to get this headset but i heard in reviews thats have delays in online gaming and have inconstant sound is that real??
how can get these to work with my windows pc? i have the adapter but it isnt working for some reason?
Who else is watching on Christmas, and how can you turn these on?
You press and hold the power button for a couple seconds. I just got these today 😅 I'm stoked loo
@@sammatthews3615 got them today and my friend said he heard a echo
@@awd.konnyr I'm confused lol they are working great for me
Ok I also got mine but they don't work on my pc
@@christopherdelriorosado102 you need a 25 dollar adapter to connect it to a pc
Does this work with the very first model Xbox? I have the first gen.
Dont think so
Can someone please help, whenever I mute or press the mode button there is a beeping noise that is really loud. Any way to tone it down?
wich adapter do i need for my pc got my headset today and didnt know it needed adapter and dont know wich one to get
I have these but my friends complain they can hear my background noise what do I do
That mic seemed too dam good... Does it have a headphone jack? If not, does it have anyway to listen to a pc and an Xbox at once
I use my headsets for both devices so having that capability makes or breaks a headset for me
There is no headphone jack on these. Simultaneous listening is challenging with almost any wireless headset. One potential solution is to use Bluetooth on the Stealth 700 Gen 2 to pair to your computer, then use the normal wireless connection to Xbox. The Stealth 700 G2 supports Bluetooth + Wireless simultaneously. The trick is making sure your computer supports it, as Windows 10 is known to be finicky with Bluetooth.
@@GadgetryTech Thanks for the response. Bluetooth is not a viable solution for me because with all of these headsets when you turn them on it automatically turns on your xbox with it which sucks + bluetooth is not very good quality. Whenever you review headsets if you could mention if it has a headphone jack I would be very grateful! Thanks again.
@@GadgetryTech help do you know why I can’t talk and my headsets are connected
My series X controller won't vibrate whenever i use 600 gen 2 max headset can someone help???
Hey bruh, so I got these as a back up. I have the elite 800x and they are the bomb! Now when I use these I hear fine but can’t hear nothing on chat. Do u know why?
been having a really hard time connecting it to the turtle beach audio hub on Mac or iPhone, haven't been able to monitor my microphone so now everyone can hear everything that happens around me.. kinda annoying. anyone find another way?
Did you find a way to fix it ? I'm having the same problem
Jeff Trippin did you find it out? It’s getting annoying
I have a question when u charge it and it red why don’t it turn on mine just still red
I don’t know how to turn off the default setting that lets u hear yourself on xbox
i got this a little over a week ago, ive been trying everything i could but i still cant get it to connect to my xbox😭
hopefully this video will help
Did it help?
I have the same thing, on an Xbox I pressed the configure button next to the usb and the pressed configure on my Xbox and it connected lol if that helps
Listen turn the headset on then press and hold the sync button (next to charge plug) till green light rapid flashes then again press the sync on your Xbox console (doesn’t support 360 or original Xbox)
@@kauzzey5492 so I cant connect my gen 2 headset to my Xbox one
Can you connect the Xbox version to ps4 ?
I have the stealth 600 right now and am looking to buy something similar but better. Is this a good choice?
If your on Xbox then get the steelseries arctis 1 wireless Xbox and it also works on pc and etc
I didn’t get a usb when I bought mine
Same! I don’t know what to do now lol
I get no mic monitoring on Xbox one?! Also, the turtle beach control center won't download on my Xbox. I may have to take these back and get the rig.
You need to download the Turtle Beach audio hub app on Windows PC the. Connect with USB cable to adjust settings like that. Hope that helps!
