Our Verdict

Turtle Beach Stealth 300

Turtle Beach Recon 200

The Turtle Beach Stealth 300 is a better gaming headset than the Turtle Beach Recon 200. Their porous fabric is slightly more comfortable and allows for more airflow, so you won’t feel your ears get as warm as with the Recon. However, both headsets are wired and still need a battery to function. The Stealth has about twice the Recon’s battery life. On the other hand, the Recon is slightly better-built than the Stealth but doesn’t have channel mixing.
