Upcoming Wireless Gaming Headsets from Turtle Beach
Gaming accessory manufacturer Turtle Beach has recently announced a lineup of new wireless gaming headsets. These include the open back Atlas Air, a redesigned Stealth 600, and a more affordable Stealth 500. Pre-orders for all three models are currently available on the Turtle Beach website, with a scheduled release date of May 19th this year.
The Atlas Air, as the name implies, is a lightweight and comfortable wireless gaming headset. What sets it apart is its open-back design, a feature typically found in high-end music listening headphones. This design choice aims to deliver a more immersive and natural sound experience, although it may sacrifice some background noise reduction.
The Atlas Air is compatible with a wide range of platforms including PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and mobile devices. However, for Xbox systems, it requires a wired 3.5mm connection. PC users can take advantage of an exclusive high-fidelity audio mode for superior audio quality. The headset is priced at $179.99 / £159.99, with optional cosmetic ‘mod packs’ available for $24.99 / £29.99.
The Stealth 600 Gen 3, a revamped version of the popular Stealth 600 headset, offers improved sound quality, an impressive 80-hour battery life, and AI-driven microphone noise reduction. It comes in specific models for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation, each priced at $99.99 / £99.99.
For budget-conscious gamers, the Stealth 500 is a more affordable option at $79.99 / £79.99. This wireless gaming headset boasts a 40-hour battery life and is available in configurations for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation.
