"battery lasts me forever, I charge it once a week and I game every day."
"16 days battery life on my fenix. ... The other aspect I really appreciate about my fenix is the battery life. 16 days or so. With everything I have to change these days (laptops, mice, keyboards, headphones, watches, phones), I appreciate not having to worry about it too often."
"Oh, and the battery lasts days even when exercising a lot (weeks without excercise)."

"still have quality sound and bass ... With a slight adjustment in the bass on Spotify + spatial sound, the Airpods fly! The bass and quality of the Airpods almost reach the same level as the XM4!"
"The best is hearing directly via TV apps such as Disney+, Netflix, Prime and Kayo. The surround, smooth deep bass and clarity with the upfiring speakers on both the bar and rear speakers is 'chef kiss'."
"the sounds grab you tightly like it's saying, "Look at me only." ... when i put the tea pro, i can accurately tell where he is, what he is doing, and heck, the snipping scissors felt so real it tickled my ears and brain."

"I am a power lineman, so I needed a rugged watch that could get banged around, be exposed to energized high voltage, and very harsh conditions. The TREX has worked flawlessly through all that."
"Altimeter and barometer and compass (ABC). More butch design and more shock, cold, heat dust and dirt resistant. Feature set more for stuff INCLUDING running. More suited backpacking and hiking which I've used it for a fair bit. Great tool watch"
"it’s super durable. ... The watch clasp has gotten scratched up but the face is still fine after nearly a year of climbing inside with it. ... instinct is very durable"

"those setups also lack many of the convenience features that attracted me to this headset in the first place (numerous connectivity options and multipoint device connectivity is important for me because I WFH and this headset does double duty as my work headset and used for playing games on both PC and my Switch.)"
"Actually I love them so much I bought monitor stands and vesa brackets for them to use them when i’m home too."
"Minipc powers/displays to a monitor via a usb-c. Very convenient and great for a travel setup."

"have easily the best mic of any gaming headset (I recorded a sung vocal track into Pro Tools with it yesterday)"
"And the AI they advertise actually works. ... With my gen 2s people could hear my dogs bark in the other room and now they can’t."
"i prefer logitech because of blue voice"

"Yeah the battery life on Apple Watch is pathetic. ... Like I have the 4G Apple watch which I wear when I am out of town just in case my iphone dies or gets broken and I am in an emergency. That happened to me a few months back. I had my watch and only my watch. I had 4G turned on for emergency services and GPS turned on so I can find my way home. Convienent and life saving right? Except the stupid thing died after an hour and after that I was stuck with no communication abilities at all in the middle of the night wandering the streets. What good is having all of those capabilities if they are just going to die on you after 10 minutes? ... other than as an emergency backup for my phone (which I have now proven is a joke in a real life emergency)"
"If I record for more than 14 minutes it will freeze and battery is already almost dead. This is at night night by the way so temperature isn't high."
"the battery now wears out very quickly - after about 1 hour of usage."

"the mic not being recognized as functional when everything checks out systematically, weird stuff. ... Today my mic completely won't connect to anything, I BT'd it to my phone, won't register that it's on, used it on my PC, nothing. ... Went to a help page and did all the backdoor stuff with permissions, no change (everything was already correct) just more frustration. ... Too much money to forgive."
"The bad thing is that I can’t seem to get the mic to work properly. ... I’m PC and the mic would either be on or off I would not be able to use the mic on off switch on the bottom of the headset. ... Later that day the mic wouldn’t work at all. (First day I got the headset) ... Bummed that the mic is this difficult to work though. ... The sounds quality is super crisp with the sonar EQ I would have definitely kept them if it wasn’t for the Microphone being wonky"
"mic is low and cant adjust the volume(db stuck at 0)"

"I can't find headphones that don't give me a headache after about 40 minutes. ... Gave my ps5 pulse ones to my girl"
"I find I can't wear them for more than an hour without my ears hurting."
"After 30 minutes of gaming, my ears are burning."

"they've cracked in half 2x on me. ... Just putting them on my head. ... The plastic is really cheap."
Witch one are best for footsteps, I had gen 2 turtle beach 600, was the best for footsteps, but the mic is garbage, get all back ground noise, updated firmware, used apps to eq. But I guess is a eternal problem. I only use them when playing without mic. People complain also is annoying. The new gen turtle beach are getting background noises also?
r/PS5pro • Looking for best headset for ps5 pro ->If it’s only a good headset for overall gaming. Any top five or top 5 YouTube recommendations. But if you focus on footsteps for fps, it’s a hard time finding one. I got pulse 3d, turtle beach 600 gen 2, cloud x 3 and Logitech 300 family. The best one of these for footsteps was the turtle beach, but the microphone is garbage, it keeps getting any background noise, don’t know the gen 3 if they fixed that issue. I updated the firmware but is useless. The second best one of these four options for footsteps for me is the cloud X 3. But for overall gaming any one.
r/PS5pro • New Pro Owner… looking for headset recommendations? ->The best wireless options within that budget are the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 (the version that's Xbox/PC compatible is generally the cheapest, at least on Amazon), and the Logitech G535 LIGHTSPEED. Both should perform around the same as the headset you have sound wise, something that's better would likely cost around £100.
r/buildapc • Budget wireless gaming headset advaice. ->Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 2 Max is goated, I’ve used it for years, you can update the headset and map buttons via the app/bluetooth
r/XboxSeriesXlS • Whats the best headset for series X? ->I’ve always had a positive experience with TB. Maybe I’m just lucky. However I have the stealth 600 for my series x and a lot of times the audio is cracking and goes in and out for no reason. I’m like 5 ft from my Xbox. I have to fully restart to make it stop
r/TurtleBeach • The Stealth 500 is the WORST headset I’ve used. ->I love my turtle beach stealth for Xbox ! I don’t know if it’s good because my comparison is a shitty no name headset I had before 😆 But I love it can hear the steps and the exact location they are coming from
r/CODWarzone • New headset for cod ->I'm using turtle beach stealth 6 wireless headphones. Garuda saw the wireless dongle right away and headphones work fine.
r/linux_gaming • Advice for Linux gaming headphones ->Absolutely not. I had to use them for ever and they just end up hurting over time. Px3's were the same way and they were also turtle beach.
r/playrust • I need a good headset for rust no budget limit ->I've had two pairs since they first hit Walmart lol, they hurt over time lol
r/playrust • I need a good headset for rust no budget limit ->I used them all thru covid, I did adjust them plenty of times, I just ended up buying a new headset
r/playrust • I need a good headset for rust no budget limit ->I returned my Turtle Beach 600s for the new Microsoft headset, way more comfortable, and no audio lag. It just works.
r/XboxSeriesXlS • Whats the best headset for series X? ->I’m using a Turtlebeach Stealth 600 gen 2 and it’s been brilliant for fuck all money
r/XboxSeriesXlS • Whats the best headset for series X? ->I was using the stealth 600 gen2 but my son got me the stealth pros. I like them both but the stealth pros sound just a bit better and are massively more comfortable. Which stealth set are u rockin?
r/XboxSeriesXlS • Hey guys, what headphones do you recommend for playing on Xbox Series X? What do you think are the best? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
