One of the best premium gaming headsets of the last few years is available at an incredible new lowest-ever price right now in the UK.
I’m talking about the Astro A50, which is on sale forjust £179.90(was £319.99) atAmazon. That’s an incredible £140 discount for the PlayStation version of the headset, representing a new lowest-ever price. Compatible with PS4 and PC out of the box, just be aware that a separate HDMI adapter (availablefor £39.99) is required for full functionality (such as Game/Chat mixing) on PS5 as this headset came out before the latest console generation.
Things are a lot simpler for those on Team Green though, as no adapter is required to use all the features of the Xbox version of the headset with Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, or PC. This model is also on sale for the new lowest-ever price ofjust £179.90(was £319.99) at Amazon, which is another £140 saving.
The discounts are less compelling over the pond, but you can still find the PlayStation version of the Astro A50 on sale forjust $219.49(was $299.99) and the Xbox version for$229.99(was $299.99). Again, if you want to use all the features of the PlayStation model with a PS5 you will need the adapter which is currently availablefor $38.58.

We rated the Astro A50 highly in our originalAstro A50 (2019) review, where it scored four out of five stars. Although it has since been superseded by more recent models like theAstro A50 X, we praised its excellent sound quality and comfortable design - both of which still hold up very well all these years later. The included base station is also a huge bonus, as it makes charging easy and provides the perfect place to store your headset in between uses.
