Wired, it works great
on July 17, 2020
Posted by: Robert
Verified Purchase:Yes
Feels comfortable, smooth feel to control. Wireless isnt great. Bought this with the match kyeboard thinking I could use 1 dongle as advertised. No such luck need to use both the dongles. Whats worse, even with checking and updating firmware the wireless was suboptimal for even work. Not just gaming but email and spreadsheets, this thing skipped all over the place. Once I switched to the wired(included). It worked great.

The only thing that dings this is the wireless dongle. The response sucks. Using the included wire, its great. Love it. Just dont buy this if you are looking for a responsive wireless game keyboard. Yes, I did install firmware updates as well.

Will only ever buy Otterbox from here out for father. He is not concerned about the bulk of the case. Honestly, thats its only ding. The case is not small. But it is definitely protective. If you want a case that will fit in you pocket, this aint it. But he uses chest pocket, so it works for him

Bought these for the wife. I personally love the My Beats Pro Wireless more. But she uses these daily now to take remote calls for work. No complaints from her. Though I think for the money, the Beats Pro Wireless sound better for music.

Father heard his fathers voice
on July 17, 2020
Posted by: Robert
Verified Purchase:Yes
For the first time since my father’s father died around 40 yrs ago, he was able to hear his voice on a record. His father was a Radio DJ and we had found his pitch records. He died before I was born so I had not heard his voice until we played that record. The sound quality was amazing and brought tears to my father’s eyes.

Kids needed a replacement toothbrush and we have had good experiences with previous Phillips Sonicares. Minor quibble is that the kids tried to put the stickers that came with it on. They just come right off after a few uses.

Introducing Nintendo Switch, the new home video game system from Nintendo. In addition to providing single and multiplayer thrills at home, the Nintendo Switch system can be taken on the go so players can enjoy a full home console experience anytime, anywhere. The mobility of a handheld is now added to the power of a home gaming system, with unprecedented new play styles brought to life by the two new Joy-Con controllers.PLAY ANYWHEREAt home the system rests in the Nintendo Switch dock, which lets you play with family and friends on a TV in the comfort of your living room.By simply lifting Nintendo Switch from the dock at any time, the system instantly transitions to handheld mode, and the same great gaming experience that was being enjoyed at home now travels with you. The portability of Nintendo Switch is enhanced by its 6.2-inch screen, which displays bright, high-definition gameplay at the park, on an airplane, in a car, or at a friend's apartment.Nintendo Switch comes with two Joy-Con that can each act as a standalone controller with an analog stick, a full complement of face and shoulder buttons, built in motion-sensing technology and new HD Rumble. They can be inserted into a Joy-Con grip accessory to be used like a traditional controller, held comfortably in each hand for independent left and right motion controls, or shared between two players for instant multiplayer gaming in front of the TV or out on the go.This bundle includes the Nintendo Switch console and Nintendo Switch dock in black, with contrasting left and right Joy-Con controllers-one blue, one red. It also includes all the extras you need to get started.

Love the versatility of the Switch

Verified Purchase:Yes
Family loves it. I would highly recommend buying the full version and not the Lites. Have the ability to switch from TV to handheld is great for kids when we want to kick them off TV. At the same time its great to play split screen Mario Kart on TV and not cram around that tiny screen. Worth the $100 price difference.

Second Cyberpunk controller
on July 17, 2020
Posted by: Robert
Verified Purchase:Yes
So 1st was bought from Gstop. RB was broken from the start. Was a huge hassle to deal with GStop customer service. They refunded my money, eventually, so I ordered a new one from BestBuy. This one also had an issue but it is minor and only occasional. The DPad makes an unusual clicking sound from time to time. I think the other one I have, from the system bundle, seems to be fine. Just unfortunate coincidence on the two separate controllers. They look really cool though.

Great custom version of XOneX

Love the unique boot up sound. Sounds like an old hard drive on start up. The overall esthetic was great. Though it supposedly had a glow in the dark paint on it. But we have yet to see it in dark. Also Controller Dpad was clicking when used occasionally. Had purchased separate Cyberpunk Controller and that one had a bad RB button.

Officially licensed for Xbox, the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 MAX wireless multiplatform gaming headset delivers a premium gaming experience on Xbox, PlayStation, or PC. An upgraded battery delivers 40+ hours of playtime, and lag-free, lossless wireless connection keeps you in the game without interruptions. Play mobile games, take calls, or listen to your own music simultaneously while gaming through Bluetooth technology. Aerofit cooling gel-infused memory foam ear cushions provide exceptional comfort, and 50mm Nanoclear speakers will bring your games to life. Chat clearly with a larger gen 2 flip-to-mute mic and easily access controls for game & chat audio balance, and Superhuman Hearing for a definitive gameplay advantage.
 

Is the USB dongle required for Xbox usage (do the headphones sync directly to my Xbox like the old model)? And will I only need to plug in the USB for Playstation, PC, and Switch usage?

Sadly it is required for all, including Xbox. I was hoping I could direct connect to Xbox but it needs the transmitter as well. Which kind of sucks as I have the regular 700 Gen2 as well and the range is better with the direct connect over the transmitter. But man, one headset vs needing 3 is a nice trade if the range isnt an issue for you.

What is the difference between the stealth 600 max and 700 max? They seem almost identical but have a much higher price point.

700 allows you to connect to you phone via Bluetooth as well. I love this feature as I can be connected to the xbox in a game and in party chat and if my phone rings, I can take the call. It lowers the in game volume, mutes the mic to the game chat, as it switches over to the phone conversation. As soon as I end the call, the game volume resumes to level and moves mic back to my party chat seamlessly. Well worth the extra money if you see yourself in that scenario.

In the specs for the 700 Gen 2 Max (Black) it says that the wireless connectivity is only RF. Whereas in the Cobalt edition it's specified to have RF & Bluetooth connectivity, is this true?

If it specifically calls it the “Gen2 Max”, these versions use a USB transmitter that works on PC, Xbox, PS4/5 and Switch. Separately(and simultaneously if you chose), you can connect both the Stealth 700 Gen2 Max and the Stealth 700 Gen2 to your phone via the Bluetooth. The Stealth 700 Gen2 (not the Max version) connects to the Xbox via Xbox’s proprietary connection.

Does this headset specifically require an Xbox-brand dongle to connect to PC, or will any Bluetooth dongle work?

Only the usb dongle that this comes with will work. They are paired. But it works across all platforms.

Do these have “talk-through” or sound transparency (like air pods pro) so that you can still hear what is going on in the real world around me?

No. You wont hear a heard of elephants bearing down on you. My wife has nearly given me a heart attack several times standing next to me. The Sennheiser ones do pass through. Wife prefers those and they have a larger ear pocket.

Difference between Stealth 700 Gen 2 and this Stealth 700 Gen 2? From the images, I can tell this one uses it's own dongle meaning it doesn't have to rely on a separate xbox adaptor when connecting to PC but is there anything else thats better/different?

Identical headset design. The only difference is that this Gen2 Max requires the usb transmitter for all platforms. It is both a positive and negative. Positive is that you can use this headset on pretty much every platform. The negative is that I own the Gen 2 and this Gen 2 Max and the range on this for the xbox is not as good. The proprietary xbox connection seems to have a better range than this new one’s transmitter. So if you only need it for xbox, save the money and buy the Stealth 709 Gen2, NOT the Stealth 700 Gen2 MAX.

Is this system compatible with Apple iPad? Is headset adjustable for grade school children?

Yes, Bluetooth connectivity. But caution for kids, its not light weight. Under 12, would not recommend. Kids Beats or Skull Candy make Bluetooth headsets that work well for kids for about same price or less
