Pairing with the dongle can take a little bit longer than you’d expect-it sometimes took up to 30 seconds during the review process-but otherwise I didn’t really run into any issues. Thankfully, there’s nothing you need to do to set the headset up past plugging it in-the Turtle Beach Hub app exists solely for updating the headset’s firmware, so it’s easy to skip. This wireless gaming headset connects to your PC or console of choice using a 2.4GHz wireless USB dongle.

Using the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 2 is largely straightforward, with a couple caveats. If you’re not looking at the controls, it can feel like you’re just fumbling around. The mesh fabric doesn’t isolate as well as something like leatherette, but manages it heat well, which is great for longer sessions. The ear pads themselves are pretty soft, and getting a decent seal isn’t terribly difficult. The headphones feature ear pads covered in mesh fabric designed with grooves underneath to make wearing glasses more comfortable. Regardless, the headset feels very secure, which is especially important with wireless gaming headsets, given you’re probably going to move around a little more with it on than with a wired headset. The headband features a leatherette-covered cushion, and has quite a bit of tension to it-at first I actually found it a little too tight. The Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 2 is an entirely plastic device, with a sturdy hinge system that allows for a decent amount of tilt and rotation.

This looks and feels a lot like the company’s Recon line of headsets, with a few tweaks, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. While our review unit is black, the headset also comes in a white color variant.īrand new though this headset may be, when it comes down to it you know what to expect if you’ve used on from Turtle Beach in last couple years.
