The Astro headset has a lot to offer. The sound is good and thanks to the connectivity-friendly base station, gamers get additional HDMI 2.1 ports, which many TVs lack. The bottom line is that the high purchase price is only worth it if you often switch between several consoles and computers and all devices are in the same room. Otherwise, there are similarly good gaming headsets for less money.
