I just can't trust turtlebeach after being a kid, saving up $130 for the first time in my life to buy their nicer headset, and it breaking because some kids only screamed through their mic, somehow destroying the audio drivers into a alien robot beep boop white noise. Haven't bought one since.
thanks bro. another thing to notice is that if you plug the wired headset with the 3.5mm the microphone won't work because it need the usb connect to turn on / off the micro - so weird
Such a shame their headsets are bad, since i just recently got the Alienware AW2723DF, and their monitors are great. Only thing i didn't like AT ALL was that Windows 11 started to automatically download and install Alienware bloatware on my computer as soon as i connected the monitor, it didn't even ask me if id like the software installed... And it happened twice! Guess it will be the same with their other equipment like headsets.
Appriciate the honest reviews. It’s a shame Alienware has become such a meme brand. I’m 28 so I’m old enough to remember when their brand was genuinely top of the line stuff. But these days I don’t remember the last time I saw a positive review for any Alienware products whether it’s their prebuilts or laptops headsets or anything else. Ya hate to see it!
@@sk8ervader Eh, a monitor is a monitor. There's only 2(maybe 3?) Manufacturers. The plastic housing is meaningless and all the software has to do is manage to not impede the user from basic functionality.
For the wired version of the headset I had to modified the usb cable into one fused duel cable one for plug in jack and one for lights it was tricky tho solder on
I bought 2 pairs of 920H in 2022 and they were both god awful. The battery life on those were absolute a joke : they would die after literally 6 hours of usage on bluetooth. Not to mention the touch control does not want to work at all : which makes them useless on consoles since by default they were at minimum volume and no physical button. Worst of all, The Alienware Command Center......... At first I thought I got a dud but my 2nd pair had the same issue. Contacted Dell and I only got an auto reply after 2 weeks. I am one of the very few who had good experience with Alienware products but I dont understand how can they fuck up a gaming headset that badly.
I am a biggest Alienware fan i since aurora r9 i buy these pc´s. But guy just don´t buy this headset, this headset is such a trash thing... I bought it and i give it back 2 days after.
Thank you for the review. Was considering these as they look nice without feeling cheap, but since I plan to use them for work and I do a lot of talking, that wireless microphone quality was really bad.
ive got th AW920H and comfort wise is 10/10 but since day 1 has had problems. first using via 2.5ghz would make some static noise on certain sound frequencies and BT always had a 1sec delay in audio. the 2.5ghz problem was fixed but BT as of today still has that delay. recently the audio would cut comepletely if i wasnt moving my head constantly.
IMHO Alienware has always been a company that likes to put a premium price tag on their products, trying to give the consumer the impression that they are "premium" when in reality you can find far better quality products from other companies for less.
the only good products ive seen from alienware are their monitors which isn't surprising because dell has always been top notch when it comes to monitors, at this point i think their best bet is to find a hidden gem headset, rebrand and add their personal funk to it, like what hyperx did to the cloud headset
Always appreciate your videos! You really helped me out when it came to picking out a PS5 headset and went with the wireless Cloud 2. Absolutely love them!
Uhmm hello sir I got the hyperX cloud 2 wireless after ur reviews but I don’t hear footsteps like u said I don’t know if it’s cos I play on console or maybe if there’s anything I could do to it pls tell me sir
I’ve been gaming on PC for a couple years now and what I’ve come to learn with peripherals is that some companies are better at some things then other. Like, in my opinion, steel series has some of the best keyboards, but their mice suck. Alienware has some insane monitors, but the headsets suck.
I have the same question. I know they're not great but if you have extra dell points or find a good deal they can be grabbed for around that price. Obviously they aren't worth $120 but I'm wondering they'd be decent for 30 bucks or so.
Honestly, not so much these headphones, but most of alien wares gear is just so ugly man. No clue on actual quality, but hey visuals matter when ur trying to do a theme for ur set up and what not
Have u ever tried the kz-zs10 pro x? They’re iems but still pretty cheap ($50< if I remember correctly) and comes with a mic. Curious to see how u think they would stack up against other budget headset options maybe

Has to be. That’s why he never mentions the no swivel being a problem on the Blacksharks 😂
@@optimusjgar 😂 watch them vids again
I’m still waiting for my check from my past razer vid.

I will say after he claimed the BS 2023 was the best headset from his top 5 thats when I really started to question things 😅
You just bashed everything Alienware at the end. You should have shown your bias, in the beginning and saved me time.
Great honest review, my mate bought the 720H about a month ago, he took them back within a week 😂
Can you test the AceZone A-Spire or the AceZone A-Rise Headset pls.thx
Don’t buy anything Alienware, ever..

Lol, they have really coma a long way.
Alienware is top tier always has been always will be. Its the apple of gaming.

Mics sound absolutely terrible.
The flat surface at the bottom makes it look like giant airpods lol
Probably better to avoid Alienware as a brand completely
those mics sounded pretty BAD!
Can someone point me in the direction of a good gaming headset please?
Whats the best headset for ps5 to hear footsteps better and in general a good sound quality for warzone in price range 250-300$ ?
Razer blackshark v2 pro 2023
What about 920h
Alienware anything hasnt been relevant or good since the early 2000s..😅
Hey not true, as all generalities, but ok.
@thisisamazingrl Hey yes it is..they are generally very over priced for what you get. They also been known to have cooling issues. Hard pass.
I was wondering why I got it for 20$ lol
Its kind of sad that my Wired Arctis 1s Mic sound better then these
Yo that wireless mic was 💩
Umm, why do we gotta pretend like Alienware doesn't deserve to be bashed?
Can’t hate on people trying. Hopefully they make better products. Hate won’t get us anywhere
their monitors are very good
@@Destinylover14 Dell is better.
@@Destinylover14 that's fair
@@Kaiser187 LITERALLY THE SAME COMPANY LMAO
Alienware products look great, but they need to be built better to justify buying

Their monitors are still the best of the best.

Alienware is like brand named Tshirts. Tripple the price for a shit quality product.
For the wired version of the headset I had to modified the usb cable into one fused duel cable one for plug in jack and one for lights it was tricky tho solder on
Logitech has had swivel even on their budget headsets like 10+ years ago

exactly "Alienware products but I dont understand how can they fuck up a gaming headset that badly"
Best way to review a product is pay for it. That puts the reviewer in our perspective
I am a biggest Alienware fan i since aurora r9 i buy these pc´s.
But guy just don´t buy this headset, this headset is such a trash thing... I bought it and i give it back 2 days after.
And because of you i bought the razer shark v2 pro 2023 and i´m so happy with that. Thank you a lot

Nobody should buy gaming headphone IF they don't need microphone.
What’s with console only‘s
Alienware is still that one Gaming Company that rises their prices up 200% cause they got that Alienware name on it.
Does it work for Xbox series X and PlayStation 5?

bro u didnt have to type all that. u couldve jus said "Alienware is overpriced bullshit gaming peripherals."

They need to step up for real, Dell is a complete disaster
You unbox so many gaming sttaf
But do you play a video games
If you do what's your faverite video Game?
i think roblox his favorite game
Have steelseries arctis pro (wired) + Dac. Want to upgrade on wirelless ones on ps5. Which one would u recommend considering allrounding?
Get the exact same pair because they're definitely one of if not THEE best gaming headphones out there
Can I use the alienware headset on xbox and playstation using the USB transmitter?
Always appreciate your videos! You really helped me out when it came to picking out a PS5 headset and went with the wireless Cloud 2. Absolutely love them!
How much you get paid to hate
More like just dont buy any peripheral from alienware, their stuff really need a new roadmap cos they all terrible.
And before anyone argue, except their oled monitor, that one is decent, but yes, their mice, keyboard and headsets are all irrelevant in 2023.
@@Wanted54321just like MSI
Techne has always been a legit reviewer. I don’t get the saltiness in the comments
Thanks man. U love a product or hate a product, always 💩 talkers.
AW920H is good
Uhmm hello sir
I got the hyperX cloud 2 wireless after ur reviews but I don’t hear footsteps like u said
I don’t know if it’s cos I play on console or maybe if there’s anything I could do to it pls tell me sir
I use hyperx cloud 2 wireless and i can hear every footstep around me on warzone I play on ps5 as well.
@@Sevaz826 how did u set yours

Nothing, that headset sounds excellent out of the box.

hi
Hello
yes tomorrow i will send it back I'm sure thanks thanks video
I was so close to buying these. On dell websites they were for 29.99

When you gonna gauge your ears? It’d look dope with the tatts!
No piercings for me. Had some when younger.
