Turtle Beach’s latest iteration of the Stealth 700 gaming headset has raised the bar in terms of convenience and versatility. With the inclusion of two USB transmitters, this headset allows for seamless switching between consoles and PC at the push of a button. Set to launch on September 22nd, the Stealth 700 Gen 3 is now available for preorders at $199.99.
While the concept of one-button switching is not entirely new in the gaming accessories market, Turtle Beach’s approach with the Stealth 700 Gen 3 sets it apart from competitors like Logitech’s Astro A50 X. Unlike the Astro A50 X, which relies on routing all audio and video through its charging dock’s HDMI passthrough, the Stealth 700 simplifies the process without sacrificing functionality.
Impressive Features
The Stealth 700 Gen 3 boasts an array of impressive features, including 60mm drivers (10mm larger than the previous model), simultaneous Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity for phone and Discord use, spatial audio, a noise-canceling microphone with ‘AI’ capabilities, and an impressive 80 hours of battery life. In addition, the dedicated PC model offers higher quality audio and microphone specifications compared to the console versions.
One of the notable aspects of the Stealth 700 Gen 3 is its unique cross-compatibility features. While the Xbox version can be used interchangeably with PlayStation and PC, the PlayStation and PC models do not work with Xbox. This connectivity anomaly may be attributed to licensing restrictions imposed by Microsoft and Sony. Despite these limitations, the headset still offers a more flexible solution for multiplatform gamers.
The redesigned Stealth 700 Gen 3 wireless gaming headset from Turtle Beach presents a practical and efficient solution for gamers looking to seamlessly switch between different gaming platforms. With innovative features, impressive specifications, and a user-friendly design, this headset is set to redefine the gaming audio experience. Whether you’re a console or PC gamer, the Stealth 700 Gen 3 offers a versatile and high-performance option for all your gaming needs.
