Astro A10 gen 2 unboxing and review - best budget headset?

This is a review of the Astro A10 Gen 2, in mint green. I’ll be honest, I have been surprised by this headset, it’s not as rubbish as I expected it to be be. It’s loud, sounds decent and has an ok mic. I’m using the mic for the voice over here. Highlights of the Astro A10 Gen 2: Decent flexible design Reasonable clamping force Decent microphone Lightweight fit that’s not uncomfortable Surprisingly loud considering the drivers Lowlights: Mic picks up some background noise Ear cups are a bit shallow May be a problem for larger heads Please note links listed here include affiliate links which may earn me a commission.
