Afterglow Wireless Amplified Stereo Gaming Headset Revealed!

4.7
PDP has turned Afterglow from a simple word-to-word company to a dominating 45% of all third party hardware. With their sleek looking controllers, supporting all major consoles, it is safe to say that these amazing products are here to stay!

We had a chance to sit down with AfterGlow and discus some of their current and upcoming products as well as new ideas that they are bringing to the table. We can definitely say that they pushing the limit on quality and visuals.

The main idea behind Afterglow is to bring high quality products at an affordable price to the market. And just when we thought that they had pushed the bar to the max, they revealed to us yet another mind-blowing headset.

For all of you hardcore gamers out there, you know that you can’t play to your highest potential without utilizing a studio-quality headset. PDP’s current headsets clearly show that they know this as well. With the sound quality comparable to that of a Turtle Beach, Astro, or Tritton, these Afterglow headsets are hitting retailers at $59.99 and $89.99 in September of this year.

The AfterGlow comes with preset modes that should suit all of your audio needs. They include the following:
  • Pure Audio
  • Bass Boost
  • 3D Expander

The tip of the microphone will glow a color defined by the currently selected audio mode.

Specifications:
  • 50mm Neodymium Drivers
  • Professional acoustically tuned, both mechanically and electronically for depth, richness and clarity of sound
  • 3 Digital audio modes, raw audio, bass boost, and 3D cinema surround
  • Retractable noise canceling microphone with active listening LED indicator and microphone monitoring to help you communicate effectively
  • Dual suspension headband design eliminates lateral pressure on ears, allowing for hours of comfortable gaming
  • Feather-light headband lined with soft Alcattlara cloth
  • Anatomically contoured protein synced ear pads

These headsets are fully supported on every current generation console including iOS and Android. They also come in white or clear color schemes.


PDP also revealed a headset to us that they have no plans to release. They made it simply because they were bored and thought it would look cool.

I have an afterglow controller and it is shit. i only use it for basic PC gaming. I'm wondering if the headset will be as shitty as the controller?

I've always heard of horrible reviews of afterglow. But who knows maybe they'll actually come out with a good headset. Looks pretty cool no we'll just have to wait and see for the actual product.

Would be cool if it wasn't a god damn stereo headset.

ATypicalPersonPosted:

Well maybe if they get good reviews from a lot of people I might get one but it seems like all their products break to easily.

I had an Afterglow Xbox 360 Controller, Lasted one month and the wire broke

I highly doubt the sound quality is comparable to Turtle Beach's, Tritton's, or Astro's headsets. The headset will probably break after a short time anyway. It would be annoying to have your head light up. Either you won't see it at all, or it will just be distracting your eyes.
