Our Verdict
Turtle Beach Elite 800 Wireless
Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Wireless
The Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Wireless and Turtle Beach Elite 800 Wireless are very similar gaming headsets. Both have decent performance, but the recording quality of the Stealth 700’s mic is better but doesn’t handle noise as well as the Elite 800. Both control schemes offer plenty of options, but the Elite 800 are hard to use, and the feedback is bad. On the other hand, the Elite model has an ANC feature, but it struggles to reduce background noise. Overall, both headsets are fairly cheaply made and may not be worth the investment.
