Stealth 500 (PC Version)

I just picked up the Turtle Beach Stealth 500, not bad for the money. Had the Sony ones in the past, they’re nice but a little overpriced.

I went with the Turtle Beach Stealth 500 a while back because it was affordable and wireless.

I tried the Stealth 500 and while the battery life was solid, the build felt cheap and the soundstage was pretty flat.

The Stealth 500 is a piece of garbage.  14 months and my son's right ear sound is out.  They only have a one year warranty and offered 25% off a new one.  Hell no.  Do not buy.. stay away.

I tried the Stealth 500 and it was fine for casual gaming, the sound was decent and the battery life was solid, but the build felt a bit cheap and I had a couple random dropouts.

Don’t buy the stealth 500. Literally the worst purchase I’ve made in the last year. Mine straight up doesn’t connect to my laptop, then out of nowhere it does connect, only to have crackly audio and a non functioning microphone. Naturally, I thought drivers so I updated them. Still no good. Deleted all drivers and reinstalled, still no good. Honestly take my word for it, do not under any circumstance purchase this headset.

I went wireless for my Series X too because I kept snapping cords. The Turtle Beach Stealth 500 feels solid and works fine....but honestly I ended up liking the SteelSeries Arctis 1 Wireless better.

I used the Stealth 500 for a bit and while it was comfortable and the mic was decent, I ran into some connection hiccups and the earcups got hot on long sessions.

I've had to replace my A50's that I also got in 2017, they were great but now they only charge about halfway and so only last about 2 hours and they're dead finicky in the dock. I got some Turtle Beach Stealth 500's as they were on sale and I don't join party's a lot these days but they were a far bigger pain to set up than they should have been, should have stuck with Astro's but these will do for now.
