I'm glad a lot of brands are now releasing multi connection headsets. The Corsair HS70 BT is still my favorite due to durability and the free replacement parts in case it wears out. Also, the Mic is just fuckin great!
Super excited the A30 is back! But kinda sad it doesn't have cloth ear cups. I'm using an A10 currently after selling my A50 because of the crap next gen console support. Very tempted to pick this up!
Even during the video he turned the noise gate off during the microphone test and the internal microphone still sounds better than the external boom microphone. Either option though could be better for a $230 headset.
@@clawson32104 I was thinking about purchasing these for my adult sons who live in separate states and play games together. It looks pretty cool and sounds like it would be awesome but I know nothing. I also don’t want to pay over $200 if it’s underwhelming . Is there a better alternative? I appreciate your feedback
@@brumarcel I don't have any inside info, but it's been a long time since the last versions, and the existence of this new A30 shows that they are actually working on things, so my guess is maybe the A40 in the first half of 2023 and the A50 in the second half lol.
Watched another video prior to this, but wanted your take on them. The mic sounds much better on Wi-Fi mode without the boom attached. However, plugged in with headphone jack, the boom sounds as good as Corsair HS80 IMO. Thinking of getting a pair tomorrow. Been researching for hours today
Never realized I got a reply @edgarmendoza4112 I got the steel series Arctis nova pro wireless. @johnconnor636 I didn’t re watch this, but if it had that detachable mic, I meant it sounds much better with the boom mic plugged into headset instead of regular built in mics.
To sum it up, the A30 headphones are definitely better than the Astros A50 in several ways. However, there are a few areas that could use improvement. Firstly, I'd like the headphones to automatically turn off when not in use for a short time, which would save power, but unfortunately, this feature is missing. Additionally, I'd appreciate the ability to adjust settings directly on the Xbox or PC, not just through a phone. Overall, the A30 headphones are a big step up from the Astros A50, but they have a comfort issue. Unlike the A50, I find the A30 less comfortable for long gaming sessions due to the earpad rubber design. Despite these points, the A30 headphones are still a good choice, and I hope future versions will address these concerns.
Just bought the Mandalorian edition on Amazon and was not at all disappointed. I would buy this headset again in a heartbeat. 10/10 would highly recommend. Mine was on sale for $179.
I like the Rig 500 Pro myself, comes with 2 yrs of Dolby Atmos and you can use this headset with the Series X and PS5 both ( also PC). It plugs right into the controller also.
@@Jason_Voorhees. damn that’s crazy you’ve had that experience with the rig 800. I was really considering them at one point. My buddy has 800s and his mic sounds worlds better than my A40TR with the stock mic and even the yeti ice pop mic I bought for them. I just bought the a30s as I wanted wireless but I’m really considering taking them back. I was incredibly disappointed in the sound quality and clarity. My A40s hit way harder and have way deeper sound to me than the 30s. I feel like Astro dropped the ball on these big time. I may hold out till they come out with new a50s or change brands again. I use to strictly use turtle beach for the longest time
Wow, the fact that I'm not the only one still listening to Solar Sailor is a real surprise, even if it's just for a bass test. Nice review, and Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
@@Calibretto9 I really like the headset. Super comfortable and excellent sound. I have tried at least 6-7 different headsets over the last year or so and overall I like the A30 the most.
great for gaming, but when I went to play music i was annoyed I couldn't set an EQ. didn't know there were adjustments like that on the mobile app. its annoying there is nothing on pc, i ended up just finding a free EQ.
The clamping force is too tight, also it gets hot rather quickly after one game compared to other headphones. The space inside I found rather tight compared to the a50s which arent far off in price. I was unfortunately disappointed,the headphones are fine but not worth the asking price.
These are very similar to the original A30 wired headset from years ago. Those however were on-ear so these do have bigger ear cups. Personally I find them perfect and priced right in line with most of Logitechs higher end wireless models
I hated this headset when I first got it, bought it on a whim after my new puppy chewed up my last one, but it’s really grown on me since I’ve been using it
Great review per usual on the gaming headsets. Now that you’ve used these, Sony h9, and the steelseries nova pro wireless. Which one you gonna go with as a daily for ps5? Surely you’re one of the few that can avoid the anc bump on the nova pros 😂
Hi I have both Sony h9 wireless and the nova pro wireless for the ps5 it's a tough decision they both sound awesome but your going to get more out of the nova pro wireless because you have equalizer settings the h9 wireless don't have no equalizer settings yet for the ps5 like they do the pulse 3d headphones I would say go with the h9 wireless if they had different equalizer settings but in the future they might.i just ordered the astro a30 wireless for the ps5 they might be the best of all
Thank you for your review! When using the mobile app to adjust/make sound profiles, are they saved to the headset? ...so if I were to disconnect from bluetooth or use a different bluetooth deivce without the app, does the sound profile persist until changed again from the app? Or does it go into some default sound profile when not connected with the app?
Yes. You connect to your phone for music and your ps5 or Xbox or PC at the same time and listen to both. Also you can talk on the phone while doing all this.
@@tjhodge3562 What’s the point of the usb c transmitter then if you can connect to your phone via Bluetooth or is it just so its compatible with the switch?
Can you use the headset as a wired headset? Say that the battery is dying and you don’t wanna have to put it on charge. Could I connect the aux cable into a controller and it would be powered by the controller? I currently have a40 tr, I’ve had 3 pairs of Astro a40s over the few years and their perfect. The current ones I have are gen 4, I’m hopping that a gen 5 will come out some point but I’m getting to the point that I’ll have to replace my current headset soon. I still don’t really like wireless headsets cause you have to charge them and the batteries life drains over time. I’d love if I could find a headset that works as both wired and wireless. I love the Astro a40s, would you recommend getting this headset then or another brand of headset like Astro a40s? I’d love to get another a40 but here in Australia you can only buy the a40 tr with the mix amp pro and not without it. I don’t want to spend extra cash on a headset that comes with a mixamp I’m not gonna use at all. Also I prefer the mixamps you can plug into bottom of the Xbox controllers.
Hola yo tengo los Astro A10 negros y no estoy muy contento ya q me quedan un poco pequeños y después de varias horas de juego me lastiman los oídos.. Estos A30 sería un gran salto sgnifacativo???? Buen video comenzaré a seguirte...
The biggest thing for me with Logitech headsets is they have the side tone so I can tell if I'm taking too loud. Does it work pretty well? I have a dedicated mic so Ill only use headset for sidetone
I bought it without realizing you need all these separate dongles... Worst part is they don't even sell them yet. So I'm just stuck with the PS5 only version. Can't even use it with my Xbox until they release the dongles. Unreal. Lol might return... 😂
A50s are better in sound quality, comfort, mic, convenience of features ( there is no flip to mute on the a30s) . I'd wait for a new gen a50s or try the steel series nova pros .
I ordered these and just got them, Im looking up videos about them and I keep seeing the detachable mic. Is that mic supposed to come with the headset ? If so i didn’t get one
another question is can i connect it to my controller or A40 mixamp with the 3.5 aux cord and still bluetooth music to my phone at same time! So basically can i play game and listen to music at same time?
Lost me when i had to use an app like what? I have a Logitech mouse,keyboard, mousepad, and sim racing setup witch all connect via ghub and wanted to get these to replace my a50s for that reason and detachable mic and better headband and also to get rid of the astro app on my computer
Does anyone know how to tune or turn the volume up higher than normal ? I'm doing everything in settings and updating audio drivers and nothing is helping hear better in game
I currently play with an ASTRO A50 WIRELESS for xbox. Would this be egal in terms of performances ? About to buy a new one tomorrow and just wondering what is better !
kinda disappointing to hear almost no difference with the noise cancelling on high.... Also the mic sucks compares to the mic you used for this video lol. Currently I have the Nacon rig800 lx, but going to send it back for a second time as the mic starts to make cracking sound again. So I get my money back. I could buy a new Nacon but as the mic keeps failing...,.. Too bad because the sound is very good and its very comfortable!
So can I use this headset on PlayStation and Xbox / switch with the usb that comes with it or do I need another usb dongle in order to use the headset for other consoles ??
@@clawson32104 only 1 right? Pc doesn’t need a dongle right? It’s just Bluetooth. Or with cable. For mobile you also don’t need a dongle so why would you for pc..
I bought this without much research, because it was there on a shelf and I wanted a headset. Initially it was great, but within 6-8 months the cups are crap, Connectivity has been steadily decreasing, support is non-existant, the build quality for the price is abysmal. Most disappointing Logitech product I ever purchased. Regret. Cannot even buy replacement parts, out of stock since launch. Avoid.
I been using A50 for a few years now, I’m on the most recent generation, I’m looking to switch up to something new, preferably better audio quality? what’s a good one under 300$

@@InternetRez Yea - it thought in Astro Footsteps eq mode, they sounded pretty good. Mics not good though - then again, I don't have to listen to that!
@@WhiteHartMart Hm…I might still take my chances with it lol. The new SteelSeries ones look great, but I want a headset with some bass. SteelSeries doesn’t cut that.
💩💩💩 sound quality for it's price category. The wireless $150 turtle beach stealth 700 and $159 arctis nova 7x smokes the asstro a30 in imaging, resolution and detail. The wired $179 epos H6 Pro and $350 VZR model one annihilates ALL wireless headsets.
666th like. :P I am thinking of getting the Star Wars version of this headset so thank you for making this review! Interesting how the boom mic seems to DROP quality of your voice. Not what I expected. Noise gate set to high makes it sound better though.
So the thing I was wondering is if the battery is dead can you plug in the normal 3.5mm aux cable and it will be powered by your controller like normal wired headsets? I just still lean towards wired headsets more then wireless. Just because the battery’s do die/ lose their charge at some point and you’d have to order the battery online id presume. I was considering getting a new headset after my current ones start to go but they are currently still going great. they’re the a40s and Everytime I’ve needed a new headset I’ve gone with a40s cause I love them. I’m on my 3rd a40s just cause when I was 13 I didn’t really treat my headsets well, but when I was 16 I got my second pair looked after them quite well and then go another pair about 4ish maybe 5 years after just cause I dropped it once on hard floor and a part snapped on it. Don’t worry I’m much better with looking after them now 😅. I am holding out cause I’m hoping a new a40s will be launched at some point.
@@yosilva1626 nice as, but just double checking, so if the battery does die in them I can just plug them into my controller and use it wired yes? Yeah I’m considering getting these if my current headset starts to go at some point. But like I said in my first comment, I’m waiting out and hoping they bring out a new set of a40s at some point.
@@bothleopard06 yes you can plug them in the controller, yeah man take your time I was very indecisive with choosing a headset until I saw a30 and the employee at Best Buy said those are the most recent new ones lol
@@Tykumo but you are not understand you are paying £200 and you are getting 27hr battery life. You can buy other gaming headsets which has more battery life and £20 to £30 cheaper like the steelseries for example. I know nobody plays games for 27hr straight
@@frozengamer3030 i bought the steelseries a few weeks ago and returned them immediately, steelseries eq settings cant be changed as easily and the mic was echoing. personally i think steelseries are overrated
Once you buy the a50 for the ps5 for 300 then you have to buy a separate accessory so it can work for ps5 and that another 50 bucks lol I’ll pass I have the a30s and they are damn good better than my razors and my 7ps I have

Anybody use these with glasses? Please comment your experience 😊
If only they had a neutral colour way.
$230 makes it a no
💩💩💩 sound quality for it's price category.
The wireless $150 turtle beach stealth 700 and $159 arctis nova 7x smokes the asstro a30 in imaging, resolution and detail.
The wired $179 epos H6 Pro and $350 VZR model one annihilates ALL wireless headsets.
These are now 160
666th like. :P
I am thinking of getting the Star Wars version of this headset so thank you for making this review!
Interesting how the boom mic seems to DROP quality of your voice. Not what I expected. Noise gate set to high makes it sound better though.
Great content 💯
So the thing I was wondering is if the battery is dead can you plug in the normal 3.5mm aux cable and it will be powered by your controller like normal wired headsets? I just still lean towards wired headsets more then wireless. Just because the battery’s do die/ lose their charge at some point and you’d have to order the battery online id presume. I was considering getting a new headset after my current ones start to go but they are currently still going great. they’re the a40s and Everytime I’ve needed a new headset I’ve gone with a40s cause I love them. I’m on my 3rd a40s just cause when I was 13 I didn’t really treat my headsets well, but when I was 16 I got my second pair looked after them quite well and then go another pair about 4ish maybe 5 years after just cause I dropped it once on hard floor and a part snapped on it. Don’t worry I’m much better with looking after them now 😅. I am holding out cause I’m hoping a new a40s will be launched at some point.
Yes you can use them wired and let me tell you the a30 are pretty amazing , you can also download the app and customize your settings
I have the a50 and I’m enjoying more of the a30 besides my a50 are like 6yrs old
@@yosilva1626 nice as, but just double checking, so if the battery does die in them I can just plug them into my controller and use it wired yes? Yeah I’m considering getting these if my current headset starts to go at some point. But like I said in my first comment, I’m waiting out and hoping they bring out a new set of a40s at some point.
@@bothleopard06 yes you can plug them in the controller, yeah man take your time I was very indecisive with choosing a headset until I saw a30 and the employee at Best Buy said those are the most recent new ones lol
the mic is doo doo
What’s the app called I can’t find it
Logitech G
One Dongle to rule them all!
Turtle beach 500 stealth P are better then these speakers kinda pathetic
Wow ok, Internal mic sounds better than boom mic 😂 who would have thought!
Just doesn't come off as a £230 headset to me
Especially when it only boost 27hr battery life.
@@frozengamer3030 only?💀 bro who tf is playing for 27 hours straight, the average is like 15-20 hour battery life for headsets
@@Tykumo but you are not understand you are paying £200 and you are getting 27hr battery life. You can buy other gaming headsets which has more battery life and £20 to £30 cheaper like the steelseries for example. I know nobody plays games for 27hr straight
@@frozengamer3030 i bought the steelseries a few weeks ago and returned them immediately, steelseries eq settings cant be changed as easily and the mic was echoing. personally i think steelseries are overrated
@@Tykumo Which model
For 230 dollars I’m going with the a50s 🤣
Once you buy the a50 for the ps5 for 300 then you have to buy a separate accessory so it can work for ps5 and that another 50 bucks lol I’ll pass I have the a30s and they are damn good better than my razors and my 7ps I have
A50s from 2019 vs a30s that came out few months ago in 2022... A30s are superior in sound man
Sooooo no Dolby Surround sound. Rip
Don’t buy headphones if you “need” Dolby.
@@InternetRez what?
@@xruud24 Most people who use headphones seriously don’t care about virtual surround.
@@InternetRez the astro mixamp is only made for that. And almost every gamer wants that.
@@xruud24 No one takes Astro’s bs “surround sound” seriously anymore. Especially when any good stereo headphone is compatible with all virtual surround sound services now. Astro A40/50s are just outdated.
