Recon 70 Headset Review by Turtle Beach

Recon 70 Headset Review. For a gamer, it is all about the experience, and the Recon 70 Gaming Headset is nailing that experience right down to the last unique feature.

Wouldn’t you like to spend your hard-earned money on things that offer everything that they promise in their advertising?

The Recon 70 Gaming Headset headset not only amplifies a gaming experience by making gaming free of interruptions, but it also offers a headset that is a natural fit. Further, it also enhances said experiences with its state of the art features.

Gamers have been following the recent updates by Turtle Beach’s devices, particularly the Wireless Stealth 600. Finding that in the Recon 70 makes it one of the most sought after headsets in the gaming world.

The Recon 70 Gaming Headset is a headset that suits multiple gaming consoles from PlayStation 4, PS4 Pro, XBOX One, Nintendo Switch, as well as support for PC gaming and mobile gaming. The controllers are equipped with a 3.5 mm jack, which means this is not a wireless device and therefore does not need to be charged.

The design leaves very little room for the user to think of a competitor. With comfort as the designer’s first and foremost priority, the Recon 70 Gaming Headset headset is lightweight using the right strategic materials.

In order to allow for long hours of nonstop uninterrupted gaming sessions, the ears have a premium feel to them with a wrap around-ear cushion made of synthetic leather. But one can tell that this is not entirely for comfort but also to give an improved bass response, which is evident once you begin to use the headset. Noise cancellation is excellent with this pair as well.

If you compare these headsets with more pricey ones through the same games, you may notice that they pick up high sounds better, which is a bit surprising, but it elevates their points thanks to its strong bass response.

Like with any headset gamers expect a flip-up mic, the Recon 70 Gaming Headset flips up to automatically mute, which is the most useful thing for when you are in the middle of a game. The mic itself is also high sensitivity and picks up audio well. The label shows that these are 40 mm speakers offering superior sounds, including highs and lows.

The Recon 70 is available in an iconic red and black color blocking or green and black and blue and white depending on the variant you buy. The color scheme itself feels a bit outdated, but at the same time, it also feels like Turtle Beach was going for a timeless feel on these headsets. You can tell that it matches with the Switch because the red variant is targeted towards it.

The short wire is designed specifically for a console as it is more convenient connecting to a controller than it is to a PC. The controls are minimal so that you can get to playing the game instead of experimenting with the set.

At first touch, you will know that it is entirely made out of plastic, which the manufacturers tried to make up for by adding a matte finish. That being said, it still feels sturdy enough to handle. The aesthetics may not be the next big thing, but that is because the headset clearly have a higher focus on functionality.

The ear cups are also designed to swivel inwards, but if you are expecting them to be more compact and fold, you may be disappointed. They are not as portable as most modern gaming headsets.

The treble response is continuously varying amongst users. This means you will hear different sounds depending on how the headsets are positioned next to your ears.

Thanks to a solid noise isolation system, you can use the headsets for listening to music as well. The ear cups drown out the droning roar of the world during a commute or when you are going out for a walk.

The boom microphone is a few notches higher than its sound quality. For the Recon 70, the recording quality is above par. Speech can be heard as clear and full bodied. It has a way of combining ambient noise accurately to the words.

A myriad of responses reviewing the use of the Recon 70 Gaming Headset shows what various users think about the product. Countless users call it the head set that is designed to not get in the way. The features are intuitive for a game, like the mute feature, and it is smart that they have been incorporated in a gaming headset.

Others have talked about how they have to get used to the noise cancellation feature, which is more powerful than anyone expected, so much so that gamers cannot even hear themselves and may yell during games without even realizing it.

Users who have been using the headsets for months have reported that they still work like they just pulled them out of a new box.

You can find the Recon 70 Gaming Headset at Amazon, where it retails for $39.95. You can request a warranty if you please.

Conclusion

The Recon 70 Gaming Headset headset is competing in an industry of headset manufacturers that are failing to pinpoint the basics that a gamer can enjoy. Aesthetically appealing headsets have a minimal appeal if that is the only feature that one can boast about. The team behind the design of Recon 70 however, know what they are doing.
