Variants

  • Stealth 600 (PS4 (Black/Blue))

  • Stealth 600 (Xbox One (Black/Green))
  • Stealth 600 (Xbox One (White/Green))
  • Elite Atlas Aero (Black/Silver)

Our Verdict

Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Wireless

Turtle Beach Elite Atlas Aero Wireless

The Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Wireless are better wireless gaming headphones than the Turtle Beach Elite Atlas Aero Wireless. The Stealth 600 are more comfortable, have a more accurate sound profile, and work wirelessly with both PC as well as PS4, instead of only for PC like with the Atlas Aero. That being said, the Atlas Aero feel slightly better built, though they still feel quite cheap and plasticky overall. They also have a virtual surround feature, and their battery lasts much longer off a single charge.
