Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Xbox One Gaming Headset Review

Stealth 600

Turtle Beach is one of the biggest names in the headset market, with seemingly hundreds of headsets hitting the market over more years than I can remember. It seems they have something for every budget, from your cheap at-the-counter bargains, right up to their premium £250+ flagship headsets. Time and time again, we’ve reviewed a lot of headsets from Turtle Beach here at eTeknix, and they continue to impress us with their performance, features, and occasionally their value for money.

Today, I’ll be taking a look at their new Stealth 600 gaming headset for Xbox One. The wireless design features the new wireless tech, allowing it to pair with the Xbox One, or the Xbox One X, without the need for a dongle or any other hardware. It simply pairs up in the same way you pair a wireless controller, making it quick and easy to setup and use.

Features

As with any new Turtle Beach headset, the 600 features many of their proprietary technologies. It features Superhuman hearing audio boosting, allowing you to enhance enemy footsteps for competitive gaming, a glasses friendly headband design, built-in EQ that can be customised from the mobile app or PC over USB, and much more.
