It provides crystalline clarity for party chat, on both yours and your friends' sides. The chat experience with the Recon headset is remarkably good. It's nice being able to hear the outside world. There's something casual and a little less anti-social about this setup, versus more isolating headsets designed for solitary, heavy-duty gaming.

I used the Recon Chat headset for a lengthy Battlefield 1 session while writing this review and found myself enjoying the "classic" TV and mono-piece headset design. This is one aspect where the Recon Chat headset beat my expectations. I also tested this headset on PC, and it seemed to work adequately as an in-line microphone, despite not being advertised as such.Īs much as I like the headset's over-the-ear design, no chat headset, $20 or not, is worth buying without decent audio quality. Additionally, the in-line audio controls ensure the Recon Chat headset remains compatible with mobile devices and PlayStation. I feel that this beats the audio control base seen by the official Xbox Chat headset, because it doesn't add to the controller's footprint. The cable also sports some convenient in-line audio controls. A straight connector would have been the logical option, like those on virtually every other Turtle Beach Xbox headset I've used, but it's a minor gripe.
It's odd that the company used this connection type, given that the headset is designed to be plugged into your Xbox controller. Thankfully, the positioning doesn't impede the audio, as I'll discuss in the next section, but it would've been nice to have a little more control over this aspect.īeyond the headset itself, the cabling for the Recon headset works well, though I'm not a huge fan of the right-angle connector used for the 3.5mm jack. The plastics used are far too flexible, making positioning almost impossible. The microphone is a tad annoying, however.
