Thrustmaster Y-250X Xbox 360 Headset (Video Game Accessory Review)

Peripheral developer Thrustmaster has just released a new line of gaming headsets with the Thrustmaster Y-250X gaming headset. The new model is styled to be a perfect fit for Xbox 360 gamers, but the accessory is compatible with numerous consoles and devices including PlayStation Vita, Nintendo 3DS, most MP3 players and smartphones. The Thrustmaster Y-250X is one of the highest quality products we've managed to get our hands on, and the stylish headset is also one of the most comfortable to wear during those long gaming sessions. The product is designed with flexibility and ease of use in mind and features a detachable mic for when you just need sound, and over 17 feet of cables to ensure you've got plenty of slack when moving around in your room. If you're in the market for a new gaming headset, look no further than the brand new Thrustmaster Y-250X gaming headset!

The Thrustmaster Y-250X is one of the most comfortable headsets you'll find on the market. Both the large earpieces and headband that keeps the device stuck the top of your head are wrapped in padding that keep it from feeling uncomfortable on your ears and head. Though the headset isn't completely wireless, it does feature a lengthy, detachable cable that allows you to hook the device to other handheld consoles or devices to listen to music or make phone calls without having to worry if the cord will reach across the room or not. The headset is lightweight while in use and only weighs about 12 ounces in total, yet the device is very durable with high quality parts that won't break too easily. The microphone itself is fully adjustable for heads of all sizes and is detachable as well in case you're only interested in listening to the music or in-game audio with your new gaming headset currently.


Built-in noise filters and adjustable gain levels ensure your voice is clear and easily understandable for your friends on the receiving end. Other standard features are included with the Thrustmaster Y-250X including a mute button, fully adjustable in-game audio frequencies and voice filters or even the ability to turn off voice feedback entirely. 50 mm drivers ensure crystal clear audio and fantastic bass recognition meaning the spectacular sound of the Y-250X is unbeatable. The booming audio is also immediately reproduced for your headset with responsive frequency response curve that ensures you're hearing things as they happen in game to give you a competitive edge. The superior sound quality of the gaming headset has to be the biggest draw for any serious gamer looking to take their skills to the next level.

Priced at around $90, the Thrustmaster Y-250X is an affordable gaming headset that is well worth its asking price. Most other headsets don't offer the wide range of options you'll get with the Y-250X including compatibility with multiple gaming systems and the ability to take phone calls, and definitely not for the same price. The Thrustmaster Y-250X is an excellent choice for a gaming headset for Xbox 360 owners that is made from great materials with plenty of detachable parts and a design is inspired by the classic white and green Xbox 360 consoles. Pick up your Thrustmaster Y-250X gaming headset today, and it will be the last purchase you'll need until the next generation of Xbox arrives in the near future!

Thrustmaster Y-250X gaming headset is now available from most major retailers and can be purchased for $89.99 and is compatible with Xbox 360 hardware. For more information on the Thrustmaster Y-250X gaming headset, check out the official Thrustmaster website.
