I went from A50s Gen 2 to The new Lightspeed ones, I get more distance, audio and mic quality is better, battery is way better, and the comfort is fine, I just had to adjust the height. Its been a great upgrade for me
I also vote for the A50’s. Best pair of gaming headphones I’ve ever owned.
I have buyers remorse for my a50 doesn't charge properly on the dock unless you mess with it to get it in place. I have the latest Gen and it was supposed to be fixed but still is a pain. Pretty bad pain after a few hours of gaming have had them for months and use daily for a few hours no improvement. The volume controls are easily the worst part. Absolutely abysmal and volume will just randomly change on you. It is a good headset sound quality wise but for the price tag there are too many basics they got wrong. Would be worth it at $100 no more.
I loved my A50’s, but after an update they just didn’t work on my pc anymore. Rocking steelseries now, they’re great, but I miss the charging dock of the a50
I've switched to Astro years ago and never looked back. Amazing audio, comfort and durability. Have both the a40 tr (10+ years old) and the A50.
I have used them a few times for work calls and stuff and get no complaints. They are definitely an upgrade over laptop/Webcam mics. Probably not as good as my A50s
Second this. Bought them in 2020 with gov. checks. Thousands of hours of use into them and even battery life still holds up
Caveat, I'm a PC gamer that doesn't use headsets these days, but I have a sorta big head, I've encountered this SO much lol. But when I did still opt just for headsets before I switched to PC and set myself up with a boom arm mic rig + studio headphones, I loved HyperX's headsets for fit & comfort. I had a Cloud II and I wore those things to DEATH even after I started playing only PC. They fit just right and have really big cans so they don't squash my head like a lemon. I also tried a friends Logitech's Astro A50's recently and they're pretty nice, they don't feel like shit on my ears, but, the price tag leaves a lot to be desired. At least for me, anyway, but I'm on a really tight budget.
They are expensive, but I've really loved my Astro A50's. Audio is really good, specially with Directional sound. And if you are a music enjoyer, they sound amazing.
Yeah, I tried a lot of different options at first (JBL earbuds, which were okay, my way too heavy with the headset Astro A50s, Sony Pulse earbuds, okay audio, would disconnect and not reconnect in a timely fashion often) and am now also on the wired earbuds that it comes with.
