New Gaming Headset. Turtle beach or HYPERX?

[shaun127]

Guys looking for a new gaming heatset, multi-platform. must be compatible with Ps4, ( xbox1 straight out of box) wiiU android/mobile and PC

Had to pairs of Turle beach PX24 and both pairs cabling snapped inside cables. Looking for something more realible if there is such a headset.

what about these Hyperx headsets anybody using a multi platform pair and will they work with the XBOX1 controllers out the box without need for microsoft adapter?

Thinking about these if theyll do what I want. Are they better quality and better headset than the Turtle beach PX24's which are nearly half the price of these

Bought a pair of HypeX Cloud 2's by Kingston. seems they have great support and gets great reviews. So will see if they last longer than Turtle beaches

A good thread @shaun127, I preferred the turtle beaches' and am going to order them. I own the Turtle Beach Stealth 500 at the moment, great for xbox one but mic don't work for pc gaming. I've decided that pc gaming is best
I stupidly bought Ghost Recon Wildlands xbox one version because the pc version plays up a bit, the pc version is miles better. Graphics are awesome.

@chookey should have said they are for my lad. I dont "Game" but he's broken 2 sets of the turtle beaches PX24s in the last year. 1st pair I got his cash back last time. but doubt that will happen with these ones.
So thought I would try something different to see if these are better quality. Kingston support seems spot on reading some reviews, so we'll see.

These are the ones I got, seems there was a problem with some of the early ones crackling but kingston say plug them into pc and update firmware should solve it if not they give you contact to replace soundcard next day delivery.

Thanks @shaun127, I'm getting on now but still a gamer roud:
The PX24 would perhaps be treated a wee bit gentler on my ears but for a "hardcore" gamer you may have made the right choice for your son.

I have the 800x. I do like them but wished i had bought the astro a50's :-(

Although the new xbox scorpio will use dolby atmos for its sound and headphones!
