Improved wireless connection to Xbox One and Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows. TURTLE BEACH AUDIO HUB - Desktop Software It’s all the more jarring, then, that the Elite 800X has many small annoyances. The headset’s buttons are way too sensitive, meaning you end up changing settings or turning it on accidentally. Battery life is only just acceptable at 10 hours, meaning it’s possible to run out of power before the day is out. The Turtle Beach Elite 800 excels at the basics of audio performance, comfort and features, making it a great headset for gamers both at home and on-the-move.

The headphones themselves are very nicely made — they look good, feel great, and they’re comfortable to wear for hours on end. The earcups and headband are padded with memory foam and covered in a soft synthetic leather. They’re incredibly luxurious, especially if you’re used to the fabric mesh that covers most gaming headsets. While the Elite 800X isn’t as stylish as a pair of Beats or Bose headphones, it feels nearly as well made.

The Elite 800X is a very well-made headset overall. It feels sturdy, but not too heavy, while the synthetic leather and memory foam earcups are soft and comfortable. It’s not an overly stylish headset — it still looks closer to Turtle Beach’s other gaming headsets than a pair of Beats, but it’s one of the few gaming headsets that we’d wear in public without feeling too ashamed or self-conscious. We released a firmware update for the Stealth 400 that enhances your headset by enabling Variable Mic Monitoring control. This firmware update will replace the Stealth 400 ’s independent chat volume control with a different feature set, Master Volume control (game icon) and Variable Mic Monitoring control (chat icon), which allows you to hear how loud your voice sounds inside the headset so you never have to shout at your teammates or other players (unless you really want to). This means that the headset sports Bluetooth wireless connectivity for connecting to portable devices such as laptops, tablets and mobile phones, while a bundled wireless transmitter works with most devices that have an optical audio output, such as a PC, Mac, PlayStation 3 or PlayStation 4. Firmware update required for Nintendo Switch™ compatibility. Please remember to remove the protective film from your Scout Air ear buds before use.

The Reigning Champs of Gaming Headsets | Turtle Beach Blog

Two years after launch, the Elite 800 and Elite 800X remain unmatched in sound, comfort, and feature-set. Groundbreaking additions such as active noise cancellation, DTS Headphone:X 7.1 Surround Sound, invisible microphones, and the sleek magnetic charging station set the Elite 800 series apart — and that still holds true today! Let’s take a closer look at what makes the Elite 800 and Elite 800X so special. DTS Headphone:X Surround Sound For dedicated Xbox One fans, the Elite 800X is great. Setup is a breeze, wireless performance is excellent, and the magnetic charging station is a simple and elegant way to recharge your headset at the end of the day. If you’re a frequent traveller, active noise cancellation is a luxury that soon becomes a necessity. Gaming headsets made the jump from the PC to consoles when Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network brought multiplayer out of the study and into the front room, and Turtle Beach was one of the front runners. A whole host of wired and wireless headsets are beginning to appear now thatthe new console generation has arrived, and Turtle Beach has outdone itself with the Elite 800. One of the most comprehensive console headsets we’ve ever seen, it brings 7.1 surround sound to Sony’s PS4, as well as the PlayStation 3 and any other Bluetooth-compatible device. A new firmware update is ready for your Stealth 700 Gen 2 for Xbox and PlayStation ®! Connect your headset to the Turtle Beach Audio Hub program on your PC or Mac to update your device’s firmware to version (v.2.0.2). While the Elite 800 isn’t as stylish as wireless headsets from Bose and Parrot, it’s a big improvement on previous attempts from the company and gaming headsets in general. It’s clearly been been inspired by Beats Studio Wireless headphones, sharing very similar headband, ear cup and cushioning design, although they sadly don’t fold up in the same way.

We mentioned that the default ear covers look a little busy because of all the logos. Thankfully, they can be replaced with new ones, allowing this headset some level of customisation. If you register the headset with Turtle Beach, you become an “Elite Member” and qualify for two free pairs of speaker plates, as well as other useful bonuses such as a two-year extended warranty and a t-shirt.

New firmware updates are now available for your Stealth 600 Gen 2 for Xbox and Stealth 600 Gen 2 for PlayStation ®! Connect your headset to the Turtle Beach Audio Hub program on your PC to update your device’s firmware to: The main issue for potential buyers to consider though, is the Elite 800X’s limited console support — it’s great for Xbox One, but PC and PS4 chat support is completely omitted. We really wish the Elite 800 and the Elite 800X were one product — an ultimate high-end wireless headset that would work with every major console and device. Right now though, the Elite 800 is a much better option for anyone who also games on a PC or PlayStation 4. Bluetooth range is good, if not exceptional — we were able to get around 20 feet away from our Macbook Air without the audio breaking up. Battery life of 10 hours is more problematic — competing headsets such as the Mad Catz F.R.E.Q. 9 go up to 20 hours, doubling this performance. After charging the headset overnight, we encountered the “low battery” warning at around 7pm, which isn’t ideal for those who use their headphones all day.

Turtle Beach Elite 800 Review | Trusted Reviews

The Elite 800 pretty much has it all when it comes to connectivity. Dual Bluetooth 4.0 pairing means that it will work with two devices simultaneously, so you can be listening to music from your tablet and take a call from your mobile. If your portable device doesn’t have Bluetooth connection, such as the 3DS, then you can connect using a 3.5mm cable, which is included in the box. The company has created high-end gaming headphones before, including its most recent “Seven” line. It’s also made high-end wireless portable headphones for more general lifestyle use, like the i30. The Elite 800 aims to combine both these functions into one headset–one that can be used for gaming at home and then taken out of the door for listening to music on-the-go. If you want to pair the 800X with a Bluetooth device such as a phone, tablet or laptop, there’s a Bluetooth button on the side of the headset that you hold down to pair. Your device should see the headset, and you’ll be able to use it for both voice and audio, so you can answer calls and listen to music. If your device doesn’t have Bluetooth (and at this stage it’s pretty much just the 3DS that falls into this category), then you can connect the 800X using a good old fashioned 3.5mm audio cable. The Turtle Beach Audio Hub mobile app for iOS and Android has received an update to 3.14.8 (201) for iOS and 3.14.8 (232) for Android. A new firmware update is ready for your Stealth 700 Gen 2 for PlayStation ®! Connect your headset to the Turtle Beach Audio Hub program on your PC or Mac to update your device’s firmware to version (v.2.0.6).You can simply just use the USB port and select Game and Chat on the PS4 menu. Using this method, you will still get both game audio and chat audio. However, you will no longer have independent control of game audio and chat audio levels. The headphones also boast DTS Headphone:X 7.1 Surround Sound for audio sources that output a Dolby Digital audio signal. This allows you to experience audio as if it’s coming from a pinpointed source, such as bullet fire from behind you, or a car crash to your side. Like all surround sound processing for stereo sources, it’s something of a fudge, and we prefer the pure stereo option, but it’s a feature you can enable or disable at your will. The Elite 800s are completely wireless, communicating with a base station that plugs into your console rather than trailling wires across your living room.Wireless range used to be an issue with older console gaming headsets, but we had no trouble moving around the room. Audio never dropped out and sound quality never faltered, even eight feet away from the base unit. You can’t roam around the house and stay connected, as walls will diminish the signal rapidly, but even if you go out of range it connects automatically as soon as you get close enough. It’s fair to say Turtle Beach has had a lot of success in gaming headsets over the last ten years. As online gaming has grown in popularity, dedicated headsets have gone from being a luxury to a necessity, and Turtle Beach has reaped the rewards. Through partnering with pro gamers, releasing a wide range of products covering pretty much every price point, and just making good products, it’s become probably the most famous name in this particular market. Wireless range from the transmitter is excellent — we were able to continue listening to our game from a different floor of our house (although why you would want to is another matter). One great feature is that the transmitter has optical audio passthrough, so you can still supply your speakers or amp with the audio and other people can hear the game even as it’s coming through the headphones. Bluetooth range is less good, but that will depend on the quality of your adaptor — as a guide, we were able to get around 20 feet away from our Macbook Air before the audio started cutting out.
