Buy the Logitech H391.

It costs a third as much and actually stays connected, which is more than the Stealth 500 can promise.

What was compared

  • Logitech H391 Wired Headset PC/Laptop Stereo Headphones, USB-C, Graphite
  • Turtle Beach Stealth 500 Wireless Multiplatform Gaming Headset for Xbox, PC

Five reasons

  1. 1. Doesn't cut out mid call like the Stealth 500

    Multiple Stealth 500 owners report disconnects up to 4 to 5 times an hour, and some say the headset fell apart within a year. The H391 holds a steady 4.2 star consensus across 718 reviews for simply working every time.

  2. 2. Mic and audio beat pricier gaming headsets

    One long-term reviewer says the H391's audio and mic quality beat every fancy gaming headset they owned, while Stealth 500 users flag a finicky mute toggle. For calls, that is the job that actually matters.

  3. 3. Same job for a third of the price

    The H391 lists at $24.99 against the Stealth 500's $74.86. For PC or laptop calls and everyday audio, the wired set covers everything you will use, no reason to pay three times over for battery and wireless gear you will not touch at a desk.

  4. 4. Backed by a longer warranty, less hassle

    The H391 carries a 2 year warranty, longer than most headsets in this price range. Turtle Beach owners report slow, frustrating support and units breaking within a year, so the backup plan matters less than it should.

  5. 5. Yes, only Turtle Beach goes wireless on Xbox

    The Stealth 500 genuinely offers console wireless and a 40 hour battery the H391 cannot match. Unless you specifically need cordless Xbox gaming, that freedom is undercut by frequent disconnects and reports of units failing within a year, and we do not think that is most buyers here.
