Headset for Xbox/Switch

Hey All,

Currently borrowed a mates Astro A50 and loving them for Rainbow Six, really does help to know where the enemies are coming from. I was just going to place a order for a pair, however I then realised that it doesn't allow a standard 3.5mm connection, so i couldn't use them on the go with my Switch.

Can anyone recommend a headset with the quality of the Astro's but with a connection to go back to standard devices.

Thanks!!!

Well I've never used the Astro headset but I have the Microsoft stereo headphones and they seem like good enough quality to me. They have a 3.5mm jack so you could use them with a Switch.

I've got the MS one too, they are decent.

I use my PlayStation Gold Wireless Stereo Headset you can plug into the switch dock and use it wireless, or use the 3.5mm cable and plug it into your xbox one the mute button does not seem to work tho when plugged into the xbox controller.

Just got myself some HyperX CloudX Pro Gaming Headset for Xbox One X, It will also officially support Windows PC. As it uses a 3.5mm connection, the CloudX Pro is also compatible with the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and other devices that have the standard audio port.
