Turtle Beach - Stealth 500 (PlayStation Version)

Feels sturdy to me. Even sturdier than the gen 2 max I have which is still in perfect condition. I had the gen 2 max for about two years but was curious about the new drivers so I got the gen 3 white PlayStation version. I love it. It’s louder than the gen 2 max, it turns on and connects to my ps faster, the sound is incredible with no crackling. Mic works great, friends said it sounds like my gen 2 max. Update them right away. I had one dongle in ps5 pro and the other in the Nintendo switch OLED dock. Both devices were powered on and the update went great with no issues, completed in full and I updated thru the IOS app on my phone, not the pc app. I recommend having a headset stand to hang them on and I always place them on the stand when not on my head. I think they are more comfy than the gen 2 max but that’s my opinion. Nice crisp audio and great custom settings made Star Wars battlefront, gta v, red dead 2 and cyberpunk sound phenomenal. 50 bucks less now, my favorite Black Friday pickup of the year.

Just tried both and I like the 500 way more. It’s super comfy and light, plus the voice is clear and loud. Absolutely love it!

I’ve been using the 500 for over a week now it’s definitely more flexible and durable than gen 2 it’s also way lighter and more comfortable.

I have all 4 of the recent iterations and they are pretty decent. Stealth 500 and 600 are good and I use Gadgetry Tech YT channel and always EQ them and add another for other stuff. The surprise one was the Atlas Air man they are ridiculously light open air headphones that sound incredible. The 700 Gen 3 @ $200 is perfect for dual connection gaming and work i think. A couple other headsets are amazing but they hit $300 and up. Great value in the TB 700 Gen 3 

Just had this exact experience. I can wear the 500 for hours and never feel fatigued.

Very rare to find
