Yes, it comes with everything you listed.

Yes to all. Once you buy them you can register them on the TB website and you'll get all these benefits.

Those benefits are included if purchased from best buy.

Not automatically. You have to hassle their support team to get such benefits. I didn't get that far though because I was too busy debugging problems with the audio. I am currently processing my return. Read my other comments.

You get a card inside the box that gives you instructions to joining the elite program. I haven't gotten my stuff yet, but it says its in the process on their order status website!

Yes, they come with all of those things.

yes, it all comes in the box

In the box when I opened it I got all the same benefits that you would have gotten from turtle beach. I got everything you have listed, the ear plates and hoodie didn't ship yet, but they took my order when I registered the Elite code they emailed me after I registered my Headset.

Hope that helps..

Yes. I got my Elite 800's on 10/19 and I was able to receive the benefits. Turtle Beach did not have their website ready when I picked up my headset, but within a few days it was up and running. You will have to register the headset and upload a scan of your receipt and then they will provide a code to access the Elite program.

Yes it comes with all of that.

You can connect them via 3.5 mm, but youre going to lose the surround sound ability. If your computer somehow has an optical audio out, then youre golden. Otherwise, you'd be better off getting the turtle beach 450.

Yes it does work once you connect it to USB port on your computer and it installs drivers. It was simply on Windows 7. However, as noted the sound is not worth the price tag on the 800 elite wireless headset.

NOTHING THESE DAY IS FLAWLESS THESE INCLUDED

I use it with my computer as well, mostly via 3.5mm cable. Works perfect.

As far as I know, it does. It was connected to my PS4 and my buddy borrowed it to play H1Z1. Seemed to connect just fine through Bluetooth.

Not sure about Ear Force Tangos but I know for the Elite 800's you would need a sound card that supports DTS 7.1 Surround Sound for full effect, along with an optical output otherwise they would be no different than any other standard headset.

No and I spent a month with Turtle Beach support trying to get it working. Read my review when Best Buy posts it. They work, but there is a hissing white noise and very distorted audio quality. Consoles tend to have bad audio quality anyway so maybe that's why they don't notice.

It will work, but the sound quality is degraded for some reason. Turtle Beach hasn't made a good driver to take advantage of the sound processor in the unit, I believe. If your PC has an optical output, it's definitely a must to use that over USB.

I can not speak for flawlessly, as I have not used them on my PC much, but the limited time that I did, I had no issues at all. If you have an optical out on your soundcard, these should work great.

It works well on PC if you have an optical output on your PC sound card. You can also pair it with your PC's Bluetooth if available using A2DP. Lastly you could use the analog 3.5mm headphone cable included.

PC support works universally in stereo. If you want surround sound your sound card has to include Dolby Digital Live support. For whatever reason the surround decoder only supports DDL and not DTS even though these include DTS technology. The User's Guide on Turtlebeach's website includes details on how to set this up with a PC.

It has a provided cable, and you can use it via bluetooth.

Fully wireless.

No, this is completely wireless to the PS4, as far as the headset is concerned. The base uses the PS4 USB for power, and an Optical cable(included)

Fully wireless, no cords at all to the headset, only to the charging plate / transmitter which is just a usb and toslink cable. But runs off of bluetooth from the PS4.

it is wireless signal picked up by there charging station that plugs into the ps4 and is Bluetooth capable to phones and ipad and such

It does not require the cord. I use mine without any wires. The headset communicates with the charging base. The base connects to the PS4 with USB and Optical cables (Both included). I also have the base connected to my PC via another USB cable so I can update the firmware when needed, but that connection is not required to use it.

These headphones are wireless.

Fully wireless. Only needs wires if using on mobile device.

Its fully wireless from bluetooth, and theres no 2.5mm cord for the ps4 controller anyways. The controller takes standard 3.5mm headphones. The Elite 800s plug into the audio optical port at the back of your ps4 like any real surround sound headset, just make sure you put your settings to DTS and not Dolby.

fully wireless

Mic is excellent

I have for xbox one and i havent heard anything from my friends so i assume its decent. It picks my voice up just fine and silences everything else one of the best mic quality's ive had

Horrendous. My friends can barely understand me. But I am on PC. Can't vouch for consoles.

Mic quality is okay, and definitely better than the Astro A50. It's internal, meaning there are no extensions outside of the headset. The mic doesn't have a volume setting but it has presets, that are adjusted (soft to loud). I've set it to loud and no ones complained about me communicating via in game.

Not bad. It takes a while to get used to no boom. I've tweaked mic monitor to eliminate almost all echo but there is still a slight echo. Hoping next firmware update offers more customization ability.

As far as my experience goes, GREAT. I can give you 2 examples. First, my Destiny group commented on my sound when I first got them, and said it was better than when I was using my Sony Golds, and my A50's. Second, my wife called while I was playing, and I answered the call on the headset, she heard my controller going in the background and asked if I was on the headset, when I told her yes, she said it was as clear as if I was just talking on my iphone. Hope that helps your decision.

Mic sound quality is excellent, as-well-as the construction. Ps4 user here.

The Mic quality has to be the worst I have ever encountered among headsets above $40.

I was using an X12 before this, a $40 headset, and that mic quality was worlds above this.

If i had to say the X12, or PX22 rated a 10/10 for mics... and they are amazing... Then this scores a 2/10 a VERY bad mic for voice quality.

You can be heard fine, You just sound like you are talking on a can on a string.. and I mean that literally.

Now it offers Noise cancelling even if you are outside in a windy area.. and the mics are on the side of your face so there is no worries about breathing on the mic. Also the mic simply mics up almost NOTHING in the room only your voice.

So the tech behind the mic is good and it really cleans up a lot of issues you have with most mics.... however in the end the voice quality is just "tinny" Which really sucks since Turtle beaches very own $40 product sound much better even though they lack all those features.

Horrible and a lot of static

The mic quality is good but the overall sound quality is not worth $300

Plastic but very sturdy.

Plastic. If they were steel, they would be a lot heavier on your head and ears.

They are unfortunately plastic, but with an aluminum center. It's a fairly thick piece (about 2mm) and it feels fairly hefty, but all the same, is still plastic.

Plastic bit durable compared to 500p.

Plastic

Plastic

Plastic rather than steel still thick enough that it seems reasonably durable, especially considering the ear-cups are articulated. So when it's on your head most of the force/pressure is alleviated at the ear-cups rather than straining the frame and particularly the extensions.

Cheap plastic. They will break even if you baby them. The thicker band that they extend from cause a stress point and the plastic breaks.

Steel
