Astro (Logitech) - A10 (Original Model)

If you're strapped for cash, Astro A10s are a safe bet and can usually be had for like $40.

I have the astro A10 gen1 and they're pretty good but the padding on the band have worn out do you think the A50s are worth the money?

Those a10s are fine, it's the gen 2s you need to be careful with since my brother had a pair and they were horrible

That's the gen 1 so no need to worry, the gen 2s look hideous anyway so you can spot them from a mile off 😂 (Google will show exactly what I mean lol)

You're looking at absolute trash. Even on sale those are overpriced for how terrible they are. Literal Temu quality shit sold by third party Chinese sellers on marketplaces like Walmart and Amazon. They're so cheap and priced so high that they can afford to constantly be "on sale" for 50%+ off and send you a second one for "free" if you [leave a positive review](https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/cg1y6x/free_gift_from_beexcellent_is_this_for_real/). You are not gonna get anything particularly good with a budget that low, but Astro A10s are decent for $40. Logitech G432 or G435 are pretty good and can regularly be found for around $40 when they're on sale (which they currently are).

Astro A10s first gen. Tried like 4 other headsets in a wide variety of prices and haven’t liked them more than these.

So in my opinion I would get the asteo A10. They are like 30 to 40 dollars and I had expensive turtle beach as a birthday gift from family that were 150 and terrible. I also had the hyperX cloud ones, black and red and still the astro A10s were so much better for hearing footsteps and comfortable. Just my opinion

I had a10s for years back in the day when logitech didn't own astro, they were GREAT. Bought my girl a pair of a10s and not even 2 months they were defective... got a replacement and not even 2 months with that one they were defective. A buddy also got a defective pair. As a a40 user, I would stay away from a10s. Hope this helps.

I was in charge of development of the A10s back in the day, they were pretty much indestructible, had a lot of fun at E3 abusing them in press interviews, Not sure what happened since then since Logi took over, imagine the latter generations got compromised in quality to make more $$

Astro a10s (both broken now…)

I ran with $35 ($60 brand new) Astro A10s for years and I could hear better than most people I stacked with. Now I use Corsair HS65s and they’re great and comfortable
