@@GadgetryTech you're welcome! I got these today, just a question was wandering if you noticed or could check on yours.. When the boom mic is plugged in, if you try and move it, bend it away from your mouth, does it do the horrible scratchy, static noise from the connected end? Like when you plug/unplug it you hear it, but mine does it slightly when I try and adjust the positioning. Hope that makes sense! Thanks in advance :)

After watching at least 50 videos in the last 7 days a bothersome situation arose once again All over KZitem are “reviews” of not just headsets but essentially everything-obviously But most of them are brand ambassadors on the DL they get sent these products free of charge therefore creating a review video that is completely biased giving the viewer and altered perception of reality It is wildly frustrating. Essentially leaving me with more questions than before. Which in turn makes it that much harder to pick a dam headset Your videos are long but you do numerous tests and showcase every detail well So I thank you for your efforts

Man, the Astro A30 charged to 100% in just one hour, and when I first used it, it was at 40% but then I used it to 5%. It's an incredible headset. While it might not blast music as loudly, even with EQ adjustments on your phone, it really amps up the excitement when connected for gaming. I'm absolutely loving this headset, no question about it!

hey mate, first video I've watched from you. Really enjoyed the production value and quality of delivery. The PC gaming headset market is competitive and overwhelming with what's out there. Often hard to find a great headset wireless headset for a medium budget is challenging as there are so many flaws with headsets in 2022 that get so much right, but still a few things wrong is astonishing. Can you do a video for the medium-medium high budget wireless PC gaming headset? For example, the razer sharks look great, apparently sound great, but their earmuffs have to keep being adjusted after sliding down...and other products that compete have equivalent flaws. Would be good to get a great comparison to see what comes out on top.

When connected to multiple devices does the mic prioritize a connection over another? I was kind of hoping to use the headset on PC with the wireless dongle for Discord and PS5 through the aux cable but don't really want to use the mic on PS5. Or is the mic simultaneous with aux as well as wireless and BT?

@GadgetryTech I’ve been using the A20 Gen 2 for a while now as I think it sounds great for it’s price and in my opinion sounds better than the A50 So purely on sound which is better A30 or A20?? I think for £230 if the sound is night and day difference compared to the A20, then I might try it out

It's not a night and day difference, but it is slightly better. You know what's funny? I also thought the Astro A20 Gen 2 sounded better than the A50s! So considering you and I have a similar ear, I can say the A30 does sound better. It depends on what you listen to of course, but to me, the A30 is the best headset Astro has out right now.

@@GadgetryTech It does indeed seem like you and I have similar ear 😊. Thank you, I really appreciate the response. I only care about footsteps as I mostly play FPS games. I might try the A30 and see if it’s worth keeping Keep up the great work 😎

Keep you astro a20 gen 2 ,these have fiddly controls, and no flip mic to mute ,it's a switch,features are cool but mic is so so,they feel more premium than a20 gen 2,but removing wheel and flip to mute was a terrible idea

@@raysales977 I’m ok with how the controls are for the mic mute and volume. I’m not bothered about features. When I buy a headset it’s primarily for the sound and then comfort, but it does seem like the best idea to keep my A20 Gen 2

@@GadgetryTech Hey Joe, so following our conversation here, my Astro A20 Gen 2 has developed a fault and now I need a new headset, but not sure what to get and kind of put off the A20 now as I didn’t expect it to go wrong only after a year and a half I primarily care about footsteps, so which headset do you highly recommend for a maximum of £200? I was going to get the A30 however, I watched your comparison video again between the A30, Nova 7 and Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max, but seems like the A30 falls behind in competitive games, unless you tell me that if I like the A20 Gen 2 I’ll like the A30 with a bit of tuning. You did say above the A30 sounds better than the A20, but let me know if you meant that in an immersion or competitive sound profile Again, I primarily care about footsteps, so I would really appreciate your recommendation Also, if you have played the new MW2, please base your recommendation on the MW2 sound engine if you have tried a variety of headsets on that game

A30 or nova 7x! Which one would you recommend excluding the price? (If I got novas I’d get a case which is $25, so to me it’s only a $20 difference after that). I have Xbox, pc and travel a decent amount, and I’m worried about the hinge on the nova 7. I have the 9x and it broke at the hinge after 1.8yr super disappointing are the novas reinforced? Thanks

I jus bought my headset yesterday, but for my ps5. But wirelessly why is my audio so low? Soon as I plug in my wire to my controller and my headset it’s much louder. Any suggestions?

***Genuine question!*** Going from gaming to the gym with these, would you? Do they hold on tight enough to bounce around wearing them? Do they fit like and sound like BOSE QC 35/45’s?

I'm not 100% sure, but I used to work at Xbox, so I can venture a pretty educated guess about the different wireless dongles, and the reason is REAL dumb. Xbox and Playstation devices each have their own proprietary wireless protocol (Xb used to be WAY better for latency, but these days they're both so low it doesn't matter). The trick is they're different from each other, different from any standard wireless protocols (hence the "PC" mode), aaand -- this is the important part -- they hate each other. Astro/Logitech doesn't own those protocols, so they have to get a license/permission from M$ and Sony to use those protocols with the Xb and PS respectively, BUT because they hate each other, they won't allow Astro to build a single device that works for both interchangeably. Similar to 3rd party controllers, they literally write it into their license that the company isn't allowed to have both protocols supported by one device. I told you it was dumb. Great review, though!

Kinda odd Astro or Logitech (since they own them now) didn’t use metal sides like the A40. It’s nice that they have speak tags and magnetic earpads like the A40s

So update.. I purchased the ps5 version and sound is 💯 volume, I returned it to buy the Xbox version and forgot the ps5 dongle in the console.. well hate to say the transmitter only works with one headset meaning if you have 2 transmitters it requires to pair them to the headset every time you want to switch consoles so not very every console friendly.. at least the steelseries novas new transmitters can have two pure headset without requiring pairing each time you switch consoles, only problem you can’t buy them online yet

Another great in depth review and anothet example why i subscribe. One suggestion is that if you have a product that uses leather or leatherette it may be helpful to specify (if the information is available) if it is vegan and/or sustainable for those of us who are more conscious consumers.

Thanks Blaze! I do on the ones that do use vegan leather now. These are synthetic so I didn’t specify. Thanks for the feedback!
