Looks good but some problems
+ sound is great + looks amazing + does a decent job for price - ear pads weren’t as comfy as expected - 6ft long cable from headset to controller is unnecessary - cushion on top of head can feel quite uncomfortable during long periods of wearing Overall I would buy this is you’re looking for something medium standard for a good price. Feels durable and will be my headset for a while as I think it’s pointless splashing out the big bucks for something that won’t really be much better.

Good Headphones
The headphone speakers themselves are adjustable so they fit around your ear leaving no gaps which is comfortable. The Mic is bendy so can be moved around which is helpful & the outgoing sound is clear. Incoming sound is good. But this headset is tight & I've found after about 2 hours of wearing the very top of my head, aches a fair amount. With this in mind, I wouldn't recommend for hardcore gamers or anyone who suffers from regular migraines. But it does the job for casual gamers like myself.

Astro A10 gaming headset
The Astro A10 was my next choice of headset after having the Turtle Beach 50P headgear. The Astros are a fantastic sound quality and a universal headset. Very comfy but the square ear pieces could be an issue for some people with a larger ear. They are really built well and feel very sturdy. The Astros weigh approx. 400g which is double of the Turtle Beach. The cushioned ear protectors make it really comfortable and easy to wear for several hours. The flip up mic is pretty sweet too! :)

Awesome sound quality
Used for mainly PC gaming, so have had to install the windows 10 Atmos app. With this installed I have tested a few online Atmos test videos and this headset is definitely better that my previous headset which was actually more expensive when originally purchased. The only thing I would say is it takes a while to get used to wearing the headset. As a side note if you need to adjust the headband, you do it at the ear cup, not were they join the band like most headphones / headsets.

value for money
After much research into Astro headphones , i decided to take the plunge as purchased the A10, I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality and mic quality for such a cheap pair of gaming headphones, I separately brought a second hand mix amp to use with these, whilst you get the surround sound the mic quality dips compared to direct to being straight connected to my PS4 pad, also the flip to mute mic is a nice feature which the a40’s don’t have

Great quality headset
The sound quality of this headset if far better then the lower price headsets which gives you an edge in games with directional sound. The mic quality is also brilliant for its price. The only issues maybe that becouse of its solid build some people may find this headset a little to heavy and their is no mute switch on the cable instead to mute your mic, you have to push the mic back on the headset, which is a cool feature but not as convienent.

Good looking and sounds great
Great sounding headphones , good for gaming and for in game conversation, the jack at headphones caused issues when doing mic setup on PS4 had to reinsert about 3 times before it registered. Really soft earcups which do get a little warm when gaming for extended periods. Only real issue is the positioning of the headset it is not very comfortable. Good headset in terms of tech but let down by shape of headband

Solid bit of kit.
Initially I was a tad put off by the fit as they are quite square, however I have to say this is a great headset overall (unless you have massive ears in which case maybe try some on first)!. Perhaps slightly quieter than some headphones but only by a tad, the clarity and depth of sound are really impressive for the price. The "snap up to mute" mic is a really cool feature too.

All good so far
My son bought this to use with his Xbox One and so far I've not had any complaints about it after many hours of use. And as a typical 11 year old lad he likes to complain a lot, so I'm guessing that means everything is working as it should be!! :D Quality feels good, sound is very good and the mic is easy to use and easy to mute by just lifting it up.

Cheap, solid
This headset is a cheap, well built, good sounding with good comfort. Usually I would buy a wireless headset, but to adapt back to a wired headset was fine! Only thing I would change is the cable to not be rubber, as has sometimes been attracted and stuck to clothing and often pulled it out of my controller, easily fixed though by purchasing a better wire.

Works great, low echo
My son has had several headsets. This is the best one in this price bracket. The wiring did come loose within 6 months but Argos replaced it quickly. Hopefully this replacement will last longer. It is reasonably comfortable and padded and the sound quality is the best in this bracket with no feedback in large groups. Works equally well with Xbox and PS4.

Incredible sound for a budget
Astro are among the best headset manufacturers. Pros; The A10’s offer the same design as the rest of the range. Well presented, comes with the leads needed, all high quality. The mic and speakers make a huge difference. Cons; The 2:1 means you loose some of the directional advantage the higher end A60 has but it still remains as crisp.

perfect
so comfortable, and cheap! the muting system leave no room for leaving yourself accidentally muted, you can use this for party or in game chats, you can use it for solo playing to get amazing sound quality and making play much easier, you can plug it into your phone to listen to music whilst you pay, i would definitely recommend this to a friend

Excellent
I bought this for my 10 year old son. He was asking me to buy him a wireless headset which is compatible to his x box one . He abosolutey lives it . The voice clarity and big soft headphones makes this excellent value for money and comfort. I would highly recommended this product as many other headsets are twice the price .

Fantastic headset
I would recommend this headset so highly. If you’re thinking of getting some gaming headphones, look no further. You can understand where people are, become more alert to your surroundings and all together improve your gaming ability. Fantastic sound quality, especially having voice chat and game chat through them together.

The headset is good quality
The headset is nice and strong and doesn’t feel cheaply made everything is fine with them apart from some times in party chat the PS4 doesn’t pick up that my mic isn’t muted so I have to unplug my headset and then plug it back in but other than that it’s fine and a really nice headset good quality for the price

Really good sound
The headphones are great, you can accurately pinpoint where the sound is comming from in most games, pubg, cs, scum, the only con i can think of is that they are very heavy, in long gaming sessions they tend to become a little head ache, but if you only use them for a few hours they are great

My son was so pleased with this new headset.
I bought theses as a gift my son and they did not disappoint. He said they took bit of getting used to but now he finds them comfortable and have a great sound quality. Very good value for money too. Only criticism is he would prefer extra padding over the head.

Looks good, sounds good.
I was really impressed with the design and audio quality. Mic is crystal clear and I like the auto mute feature when it’s in the upright position. The only downside to these headphones that I have experienced is the level of comfort for prolonged sessions.

Better than turtle beach
Fantastic headphones. Works on all our kids devices. Xbox one, PS4 and gaming pc’s. Footsteps in front and from behind when playing on and off line. The padding is not only comfortable but sound cancelling also. Aston Martin quality at ford prices.

Great headset for gamng
My son is over the moon with this headset and a bonus that he can’t hear us when we call him! They are obviously of good quality as he packs them back into the box when he has finished with them so to look after them, unheard of from a 14 year old!
