Here is a closer look at the Xbox One headset

4.7
Earlier today, we got the first look at the Xbox One after Major Nelson unboxed the new console that will be shipping later this year. One item that many had been curious about and not seen in detail previously, was the headset that will be included with the new console.

For those of you with an Xbox 360, you will know that voice communication is a key part of the online gaming experience, especially when you can link up with your friends and you mute the annoying tweens. So, what does the Xbox One have in store for delivering those smooth vibrations to your eardrums and are there any differences from the previous generation?

The new headset has been updated from the Xbox 360 edition to redesign the mute and volume up/down buttons of the headset that affixes to the controller. Along with a few other cosmetic changes, such as a more squared off look, as opposed to the more rounded design of the Xbox 360, the headset retain the basic shape and layout that Xbox users are accustomed too.

Other than that, it’s a basic headset that for the console with mono-output and the standard black spongy material to cover the speaker.

Purity The headset looks great I hope they dont break as easily though :/


They will break just as easy! But you could sell it and get Turtle Beaches or Astros! That's what I am going to do. Bad thing is the headset is worth like 2 dollars!


My TB talkback cables break just as fast


Yeah, same here. They don't cost $20 though, at some places they do but you can get the 1-10 most the time.


Ms should've dropped the kinect and bundled a decent 100$ headset to it. That would've been great. At least they have an adapter because I would've been pissed off if I had to buy another pair of a50s.


Or they could have dropped it, not bundle anything, and sell it for 400


True.

Wagering I really like where the buttons are placed, no more reaching along the cord for blind controls.


That was only for gaming headsets wasnt it

They will. That's why they're free.

The PS ones are just as worse.
