Absolutely love the clarity of the immersive sound and the comfort of this headset
I was comparing this headset for Black Friday sales against a few other headsets. Eventually, I narrowed it down to two. This and the Logitech G Pro X2. Both are great headsets, but ultimately, I went with the Atlas Air and it wasn’t even close. This was my first time trying an open back headset. Because it is open back, the sound is just so crisp and pure. It’s hard to put into words. It just sounds very natural with no distortion. The wideness of the sound (soundstage) is very impressive. For the types of games I play (Baldur’s Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077, Horizon Forbidden West, Witcher 3, Elden Ring, etc., it is perfectly made for those games.There were two things I was worried about. One was whether being that it was open back, the sounds of my surroundings would bother me. For me at least, the answer is a big no. When you are playing a game, the sound itself blocks out most everything around you. I don’t hear my gaming laptop fans, I can hear to some degree things around me, like if someone was blasting the TV in another room, but nothing so far has distracting me from the game I’m in.The other thing that I was worried about was the Swarm II software. I had read for weeks about how firmware updates broke the volume and even doing a firmware update could be challenging. I’m happy to say that they must have fixed things because this thing gets quite loud, I only have the volume around 50-60 and to me it is more than loud enough. In addition, I really don’t use the software for sound. I use the Dolby Atmos software instead. That is what you want to focus on and turn most things off in the Swarm Software. Keep the sound on “Signature”, get a Dolby license for about $10 of whatever it costs, and use its presets or equalizer to tailor the sound to your preference. If you bump up the left two equalizer settings, the bass is more than good enough. Don’t use Bass Boost in the Swarm settings. Again, focus on the Dolby Atmos app.Comfort was in my top 2 priorities, and this is by far the most comfortable gaming headset I’ve ever warn. I have zero connection issues, no perceivable latency, and I feel like this was a steal for the price I paid. It is such an immersive sound and the rating should be much higher than what some here are stating.

Excellent Sound and Comfort
Man, it was hard to find this type of headset. I hate feeling cutoff from the rest of my house while gaming so I had been searching for open back and wireless. The Turtle Beach Atlas Air wireless headset has impressed me on several fronts. As an open-back design, it delivers a wider soundstage than traditional closed-back headphones, creating a more immersive gaming experience. The audio quality is excellent, with clear highs, a detailed midrange, and punchy bass that doesn’t overwhelm. I was able to pinpoint in-game sounds with greater accuracy, giving me a competitive edge.Comfort is another highlight. The lightweight design and “floating” earcups distribute weight evenly, making them comfortable for long gaming sessions. I appreciate the wireless freedom, which allows me to move around without being tethered to my PC (about 20-30 feet through walls).The microphone quality is also very good. No one has reported that my voice didn’t sound clear but there was some background noise from people talking in another room.While the design is understated, the build quality feels solid. The earcups are well-padded, and the headband is adjustable to fit a variety of head sizes.

Best customer support!!!
I absolutely love these headphones! The open back design allows clear game and discord audio while still able to hear my surroundings. I wanted this design so I can hear my husband, dogs and delivery people and still enjoy the gaming experience.I did have some connectivity problems with my set and did finally need them replaced but I want to stress that the turtle beach support team answered my first email under 24 hours. And they continued troubleshooting with me for about six weeks. Iâd receive an email with a fix suggestion, try it, evaluate and update them. They countered with another fix suggestion and we would do this cycleâ¦almost reaching 100% satisfaction but there was just something not communicating correctly in the headset so I am waiting for a replacement.Hereâs what I love about them: Clear audio Good volume Natural hearing, not feeling like Iâm in a vacuum Very comfortable Lightweight but still full size Easy to use Long battery lifeHereâs the problem that I encountered: Unreliable connection – sometimes I logged into my game and discord and it was perfect. The next time, I would hear my game but not discord or visa versa. Sometimes just leaving one discord channel for another caused the disruption. Also, it would toggle between Bluetooth and wireless until I finally just unplugged the dongle and just used the wireless connection. That fixed a lot right there. Honestly, the problem might be my computerâs Bluetooth connection and Iâll find out when I get the replacement.When these work, they are the best headphones that Iâve ever had. But they are not meant to deliver a full immersive experience so if thatâs what you want, you will not be happy. And I love that tech support never gave up and responded knowledgeably and listened to me. They earned a lifetime customer as long as their quality doesnât wain.

Great specs, faulty execution
Lightweight, open-back, and wireless were very promising features for me. Unfortunately, there were two showstoppers: (1) While the microphone sounded good, it was way too quiet, even with sensitivity turned way up and the noise gate off. (2) The quick switch feature between Bluetooth and wireless dongle is unreliable; even after verifying they are connected on both channels, it would get “stuck” in either of the modes and act as if were ignoring the button. Turning the headphones off and on again would then reconnect to one or another randomly.

Extremely comfortable to wear with great sound quality. Very light so I can wear them for a long time without feeling like I’m wearing much at all.

Comfort = 5*Sound = 5*Upgrade process headphone = 2*Software verdor = 2*Great sound overall, very comfortable, no ear fatigue, mic is decent if it does not glitch by zending a low volume input with discord. Otten I have problems with wireless transmitter and sound coming into headphone. I have to change settings in Windows or discord to have the headphone recognized. If Turtle Beach fixes software part of the headphone. I would give it 10*!

Das Headset hat einen sehr guten Klang und eine offene Akustik dadurch eine sehr breite Bühne, die Qualität des Mikrofon ist per Kabel natürlich besser als über 2,4GHz das ist aber normal, Bluetooth ist von der Qualität am schlechtesten dafür hält der Akku aber am längsten, die Sprachqualität des Mikros ist für ein Headset sehr gut!Die Swarm 2 Software des Herstellers Turtle Beach ist nicht so gut gelungen bietet aber einiges an Einstellungsmöglichkeiten und einen Equalizer.Das Headset ist sehr leicht, die Ohrpolster super weich und durch das Mesh am Kopfbügel bleibt es auch an warmen Tagen angenehm zu tragen.Preislich befindet sich das Headset zw. 150-180⬠was wohl durch das alleinstellungsmerkmal der offenen Akustik zustande kommt, dadurch ist man nicht so abgeschottet und hört auch noch sich selbst beim sprechen und das drumherum was passiert zB. Handyläuten, Türklingel, usw. wer sowas will dem bleiben einfach keine anderen Alternativen.
