The headset box includes the headset, USB transmitter, USB-C charging cable, and a quick start guide. I'm also a fan of the mesh material used for the ear pads, as it feels nice, breathes well, and looks good. This corner gives the earcup a more ear-friendly and glasses-friendly shape. The shape of the earcups is rounded, but on top there is a slant up to the front where a corner is formed. I find the 2.5 spot (out of four) to be just right for me.

The headband's extension mechanic reminds me of the Turtle Beach Atlas line as the headset stays at the notched spot where you set it. I also suspect that this design will aid in lasting durability. The double swivel design that connects the earcups to the headband gives them an articulation that helps in terms of comfort. More important than looks, the ergonomics of the Stealth 600 Gen 2 are quite impressive. A PlayStation model with a black and blue color scheme is also available. After dozens of black Turtle Beach headsets, this look was a little shocking at first, but it not only ties into the upcoming PlayStation 5's style, but it also reminds me of those first Turtle Beach headsets I encountered way back in the day. The shell of the headset is plastic which helps keep it light, and the PlayStation version I received for review has a light coloring that is clearly indicative of the PS5 aesthetic. The Stealth 600 Gen 2 is a stereo over-ear headset with fabric cushions on swivel earcups. Note: I tested both the PlayStation and Xbox versions of the Stealth 600 Gen 2, but this review will focus on the PlayStation model.

The Stealth 600 Gen 2 promises performance with this ease of use in mind, boasting a simple setup, a reasonable cost, and a major upgrade in comfort and performance over a host of lesser solutions. Fast forward to now, and wireless audio and chat from a console can be powered on and running in mere moments. Of course, in those days, we were all wired into our PCs.

Turtle Beach's latest headset retains the same charm and focus that I first encountered back when I used its products while working as a game developer on 'Transformers: War for Cybertron.' After years of painful and leaky headsets, I'll never forget putting on those impressive Turtle Beach headsets to dive into multiplayer with a room full of players.

From the shape of the earcups to the integration of the flip down mic to the charging point and transmitters, the Stealth 600 Gen 2 is something of a ground-up sequel. On top of new features, the actual fit and frame of the headset have been redesigned. Now, with two new video game consoles set to launch this holiday season, Turtle Beach is introducing its next generation model, the Stealth 600 Gen 2.įew peripherals enhance gameplay more than a reliable wireless headset, and the Stealth 600 Gen 2 builds on the features that made the original Stealth 600 so popular. Back in 2017, Turtle Beach introduced one of the most successful gaming headsets of all time, the Stealth 600.
