Based on 1 year's data from Feb 15, 2026 How it works
personally I used turtle beach 50x for years and they lasted me a while now it’s the cheaper side but works I guess, I paid £10 for mine.
I've been using the Turtle Beach Recon 50P for just over a year now. They're very cheap and haven't had an issue with them yet, sound and mic quality are really good.
i reckon cheap shit for gaming. turtle beach recon 50xs are like 30-40 dollars and have a mic that works with xbox so you can chime in. they sound fine. lighter than the recon 70x which i had to modify to make comfortable. for personal headphones tho, Sony XM4s are apparenlty the best. I liked my beats studio 3s more, but they sound worse and kept breaking on the hinges. you can still use an aux in to an xbox controller with either tho
for ultra budget, if your ears aren't super big, go for the turtle beach recon 50. it's $25 and it's great imo
Turtle Beach get the good one that came out in 2019
Turtle beach has some cheap wired headsets that work well if you’re on a tight budget. I think the one I had was a recon.
Turtlebeach Recon works great. Used to be like $20 at Walmart
Turtlebeach recons are like $30 and pretty good for the price, they’re wired (good since it’s just plug and play) and they fold up neatly to carry easily. Razer also has some cheap headsets like the BlackShark, might be worth looking into them too.
I second the Recon recommendation. I've had mine for almost 3 years now and paid $12 for it, and it still works pretty much the way it did when I bought it. My only complaints are that the earpiece well isn't deep enough to not touch my ear, and the flexible microphone rod occasionally will drift away from my mouth. Aside from that, it's hard to beat for the price.
Not great had two recons kill themselves after 1 year and am on a stealth 600 on the way out. Decent features but piss poor long term quality.
