Turtle Beach Atlas Air Wireless Open-Back Headset for PC, PS5, PS4, Mobile

Sound is great and light weight. Connects easily to my PS5 with the USB connector

Have been really enjoying these as don't have any open back headphones wanted something I could connect to me TV, Phone and PC for gaming. After an initial stressful firmware update that appeared to take two goes I've set them up and turned off the swarm? Software. All very good now. Overall great sound not quite audiofile but good enough for movies music and gaming on default eq settings. Not too much bleed but feel connected to surroundings and can hear outside sounds... sometimes my fan is a bit noisy... you will hear this! Connectivity and switching between devices has been great. Only issue I have had was that I tightened the velcro straps and the velcro sticky backed material came away from the plastic but stuck it back down and its been fine ever since. Like that the mic is detachable... as clicks (plastic rattle) if I move my head around too fast.... so if but needed eg for music or TV I just disconnect it. Mic seems good to me btw... but did have the drivers crash on my once... software restart sorted it I believe. So far very happy but 4 stars due to plastic feel... although very light witch is good and time will tell over hoe long they last and if the velcro holds on.

Top wireless open back headset. Open back means it doesn't block any surrounding noise, but that's exactly what I wanted. I got it almost half price buying it "Like New" which was great. Headband is one of the comfiest I've tried and I have an awkward spot / mole on my head which means some headsets can really hurt (XM4s and Skullcandy I'm looking at you). General build quality is decent. The buttons work well and it's not complicated. Microphone is decent. Not as a good as a dedicated mic like the Rode USB for example (my other mic) but it's good enough. Connectivity is good with both wireless and Bluetooth. Only issue I have is when switching between wireless and Bluetooth, occasionally I need to replug the wireless receiver for it to start getting audio again. Battery life seems very good. It hasn't ran out on me yet and I've only occasionally topped it on charge. I game and work with it. Overall really impressed. Fits well with glasses too which I wear. Buy it, especially if you can get it Like New!

was really looking forward to using these as many good reviews on Youtube stating how good they are. I agree they worked well when the we were connected BUT staying connected was an issue. When using the dongle and wireless option. it would randomly drop out. There's a setting on the (swarm 2 software) where you can have it auto turn off when not in use. I was in the middle of a game both listening and talking (even though I had this set to 30 mins) it turned itself off and I spent about an hour trying to get it to connect up again. when I did manage to get it to connect the audio was all messed up and was told by friends it sounded like I was whispering as they could hardly hear me. I was having these issues with first 10 days of getting them. Item was returned

Bought this to cash in on the hype... was not disappointed. Many many positives with some minor drawbacks. Open-back wireless headset rocks. Sound is incredible, a huge upgrade from my Astro A10 headset... options to use it in wired, Bluetooth or dongle mode, dongle mode works with PS5 which is very convenient. Microphone quality is pretty average for a headset. Ability to fold it up or even detach it completely is very handy. Contents of the box are great too, braided charging cable I use constantly. Comes with a headphone cable with volume control that even has a Velcro cable tie attached to it for easy storage... volume wheel is easily accessible, and controls very smoothly. Downsides are small, but important to note... headset is quite wide on the head. I find when I'm walking places, it catches on doorframes pretty easily, but I could just be clumsy. Headset is also quite slippery... clamping force is comfortable, but the materials allow it to slip around on the head, especially for someone like me with long hair. My biggest issue is probably that using it via Bluetooth on mobile for music means you need the Swarm II app to access full volume range. Reconnecting the headset to PS5 whenever I switch it on automatically sets volume to max. Another issue is that volume adjustment via the wheel on the headset makes the volume adjust in very large increments with little fine tuning... combining these issues means you can quickly turn down the volume when the headset connects, but it's a little frustrating to do. Less of an issue and more of a gripe is that there is very little third party upgrades around for this headset. Turtle Beach themselves sell coloured cushions and headbands, but there's no alternative material choices as of last I checked.

I can only assume the people praising this headset have never experienced good audio because this is not a good headset for audio quality. For my reference point I've been rocking a Sennheiser Game One - Open back wired headset for a number of years which was a similar price point all be it not wireless. * Poor audio quality * I noticed straight away a kind of tinny hint to the audio, it didn't sound natural. This could be because of the wireless transmission. It lacked the mid tone and warm detail for me so I enabled bass boost. This improved things but the sacrifice here was that some small sound details were artificially boosted and also reverberating oddly, this started to hurt my ear drums. The default sound stage didn't do the reverberating but it's so flat and neutral and peoples voices lacked any deep tones entirely. It had a hint of FM radio quality to it too. It may be possible to tweak the EQ to get a better sound, but the second issue made me decide to return the headset. * Microphone quality * One of the worst microphones I've heard in a long time. It sounds like a phone call, not even close to studio quality. I strongly suggest watching a YouTube video of mic tests where you will hear that cheap almost crackling hiss to the reviewers voice. Changing the EQ will improve it but not cure it. People often comment that I sound like a streamer with my Sennheiser Game One mic so this had a high standard to beat, which may be a little unfair. * Positives * On the positives, the build quality feels quite decent. I liked that everything needed was in the box cable wise and the bag was a nice touch. The headset band felt really comfortable on the head and I didn't feel any fatigue with this headset on my ears. * Conclusion * I used this on a PC due to it being the first open back wireless to hit the market. This may be better than a lot of console headsets out there, but personally I can't recommend this headset to anyone looking for serious audio and I'd suggest getting a cheaper wireless headset for console use because this doesn't break that budget sound barrier.

I will start this review by saying that I returned the item, due to the microphone being too soft for my needs. It's disappointing, because aside from that I loved everything about it. By far the most comfortable headset I've ever tried and the open back sound quality is insane. In games and music, it just sounded incredible to me. I even tried two units, to see if one had a faulty mic, but unfortunately it is just a very very quiet microphone in my experience. Sadly.

Been searching for an open back wireless headset for a long time. Can finally game with friends without my ears melting. It is a little plasticky but doesn't feel cheaply made and it's lightweight and comfortable. I'm no audiophile so can't really comment on the audio, sounds fine.

Kupiłem, przetestowałem i odesłałem. Dlaczego? Może zacznijmy od początku, czyli od dźwięku, który jest naprawdę wysokiej jakości. Jest czysty, bass jest wystarczający (można podkręcić w aplikacji), a jego rozpiętość robi wrażenie. Sam headset jest bardzo wygodny i mimo że po wyjęciu z pudełka wydaje się dość spory, to na głowie praktycznie go nie czuć, a same nauszniki nie uciskają okularników i ładnie układają się na uszach. Minus jedna gwiazdka za budowę, i tak plastikowe słuchawki mają swoje zalety, ale tutaj miałem wrażenie, że za jakiś czas, w którymś miejscu sprzęt po prostu pęknie, a jednak wolałbym nie kupować za jakiś czas innego egzemplarza. Dodatkowo są to słuchawki otwarte, więc nie są dla każdego i podczas buszowania po menu konsoli czy komputera, można usłyszeć szum wiatraków, a nawet słyszałem jak w drugim pokoju żona stukała w klawiaturę co było... dziwne. Czy kupiłbym ponownie? Pewnie tak, ale na jakiejś mocarnej promocji.

This headset uses wireless and Bluetooth to connect with the pc and for the last few weeks I have been struggling with trying to make it work. The manual tells you to look at the dongle's led lights to help diagnose any issues. Great choice unless you install it on the rear USB ports. The audio status messages are only half as helpful as you might think because there are 3 buttons and it's difficult to know what you are pressing unless you like to take off the headset every now and then to see what you are doing. The headset disconnects or enters some kind of sleep mode when there's no audio playback for a while and it doesn't tell you until you play a video and you hear nothing then you have to fumble with the buttons to get it to work again. Just tonight it was on Bluetooth mode when it suddenly switched to wireless mode for no reason. Buy this if you love troubleshooting every day and at surprise intervals and playing a game called "Guess the connection used" everytime.

Geniales Set, wenn es läuft – klare Empfehlung mit kleinen Tücken bei Updates Bewertung: 4,5 von 5 Sternen Seit 2024 täglich mehrere Stunden im Einsatz und insgesamt sehr zufrieden. Tastatur, Maus und das TB Atlas Air liefern zusammen ein starkes Gesamtpaket: tolles Tippgefühl, präzise Maussteuerung und ein Headset mit gutem Klang. Wenn alles läuft, ist das Set einfach genial. Hinweis: Bei Firmware-Updates am besten jedes Gerät einzeln aktualisieren und den Rechner jeweils neu starten. Mit der Swarm Software hatte ich gelegentlich Probleme, etwa kurze Funkabbrüche oder dass das Headset nicht erkannt wird. Die Tastatur lief dagegen immer reibungslos. Mit der Update-Routine und etwas Geduld ist das Setup aber stabil und absolut empfehlenswert. Fazit: Top Hardware, die im Alltag überzeugt. Mit einem sauberen Update-Prozess und gelegentlichem Neustart steht dem Genuss nichts im Weg. Bravo! Langfassung Titel: Starkes Trio für den Alltag – großartige Hardware, Software mit Luft nach oben Ich nutze Tastatur, Maus und das TB Atlas Air seit 2024 praktisch jeden Tag für mehrere Stunden. Mein Gesamtfazit fällt sehr positiv aus: Die Hardware ist hervorragend und macht im täglichen Einsatz richtig Spaß. Was mir gefällt Tastatur: Zuverlässig und präzise, bisher ohne Aussetzer. Angenehmes Tippgefühl, wertige Verarbeitung. Maus: Sehr präzise und ergonomisch, ideal für lange Sessions. TB Atlas Air: Kräftiger, klarer Klang und gute Sprachverständlichkeit. In Kombination mit dem Rest ein echtes Highlight. Gesamtpaket: Wenn alles läuft, ist das Set einfach genial und erhöht die Produktivität spürbar. Was man wissen sollte Firmware- und Software-Updates: Ich empfehle, jedes Gerät einzeln zu updaten und nach jedem Update den PC neu zu starten. So vermeidet man die meisten Stolpersteine. Swarm Software: Hier kam es bei mir wiederholt zu kleinen Problemen, z. B. Funkabbrüche, Headset wird nicht erkannt oder Mausverhalten ist kurzzeitig auffällig. Mit der oben genannten Update-Routine und einem gelegentlichen Neustart hatte ich danach aber Ruhe. Stabilität: Die Tastatur war bei mir durchgängig unauffällig und stabil. Die meisten Themen betrafen Headset oder Maus in Verbindung mit Swarm. Praxis-Tipp Update-Routine: Gerät 1 updaten, PC neu starten, Gerät 2 updaten, neu starten, Gerät 3 updaten, neu starten. Danach läuft es bei mir zuverlässig. Wenn es kritisch ist: Keine Updates unmittelbar vor wichtigen Terminen einspielen, solange alles stabil läuft. Fazit Hervorragende Hardware mit einem sehr guten Nutzwert im Alltag. Die wenigen Software-Tücken sind mit einer sauberen Update-Routine gut beherrschbar. Unterm Strich eine klare Empfehlung. Bravo an die Entwickler für das starke Set! Ein Tip: Empfehlungen vor und während Updates Nur ein Gerät zur Zeit: Headset, Maus, Tastatur nacheinander. Nach jeder Aktualisierung einmal vollständig neu starten. Direkt am Mainboard anschließen: Dongles und USB-Kabel ohne Hub/Monitor-Hub, ideal an USB-Ports hinten am PC. Andere Funkquellen kurz deaktivieren: WLAN auf 5 GHz belassen, 2.4 GHz möglichst vermeiden; Bluetooth-Geräte in der Nähe kurz ausschalten, um Interferenzen beim Pairing zu vermeiden. Shutdown statt Neustart: Vor dem nächsten Gerät einmal richtig herunterfahren und kalt starten (kein „Schnellstart“). Swarm-Version prüfen: Vor Update die neueste Version installieren; bei Problemen erst Swarm sauber entfernen und frisch installieren. Stabilitäts-Checkliste nach dem Update Windows-Energieeinstellungen: USB-Selektives Energiesparen ausschalten: Systemsteuerung > Energieoptionen > Erweiterte Einstellungen. In Geräte-Manager unter „USB-Controller“ und „Mäuse/Tastaturen“ bei den Energiesparoptionen Häkchen „Computer kann Gerät ausschalten“ entfernen. Dongle-Management: Headset-Dongle allein einstecken und koppeln; danach Maus-Dongle; zuletzt Tastatur. Wenn möglich, mit Abstand zwischen den Ports. Wenn das Headset gelegentlich „nicht erkannt“ wird: Dongle kurz abziehen/anstecken, dann nur die Headset-Software öffnen und warten bis die Verbindung stabil ist. 2.4 GHz-Störungen reduzieren: Router auf 5 GHz bevorzugen oder 2.4 GHz-Kanal wechseln (z. B. auf Kanal 1, 6 oder 11). Metallische Objekte/Monitore direkt neben den Dongles vermeiden; Dongle möglichst „frei“ platzieren. Treiberbereinigung: Geräte-Manager: Ansicht > Ausgeblendete Geräte anzeigen; alte Instanzen der Headset/Maus/Tastatur entfernen, anschließend neu verbinden. Chipsatz- und USB-Treiber aktualisieren: Aktuelle Mainboard-Chipsatztreiber von Intel/AMD sowie USB-Controller-Treiber installieren. Firmware-Rollback als Test: Wenn ein bestimmtes Headset-Firmware-Update die Aussetzer verursacht, prüfen, ob der Hersteller eine Vorversion anbietet und testweise zurückgehen. Spezifisch zum TB Atlas Air (Headset) Pairing-Reset: Headset und Dongle gemäß Herstelleranleitung neu koppeln (häufig: Dongle in Pairing-Modus, Headset-Tasten-Kombination zum Pairing). Modus fix wählen: Wenn verfügbar, bevorzugt den 2.4 GHz-Dongle-Modus statt Bluetooth für geringere Latenz und stabilere Verbindung. USB-Port wechseln: Insbesondere für den Headset-Dongle einen anderen Port testen (USB 2.0 vs. 3.0 kann Unterschied machen).

De lo mejor que puedes tener en auriculares ABIERTOS inalámbricos. Para los que buscan un sonido más amplio y sin sentirse aislados del mundo, totalmente recomendables. Tienen muy buena batería, la calidad de los materiales está a la altura y tienen una funda muy práctica. No son recomendables si hay mucho ruido donde los uses.

Really impressed with the Turtle Beach Atlas Air. The sound quality is excellent, it’s comfortable to wear for long gaming sessions, and the wireless connection works great. I also love the open-back design it feels much more natural and spacious. Definitely recommend!
