Great deal for a quality headset. £29.99 is an absolute steal

Yes it will work on both Xbox One and the PS4.
I'd disagree, around this price point for a Xbox One headset to use with the first gen XBO controller you won't get better headset with good quality audio and mic clarity. You are looking at paying £15 for the adapter on it's own so the headset essentially costs £15. You won't get a good quality Sennheiser headphone at this price specially not one with a mic attached, and even if you do get a mic it will be the inferior inline mics, you usually looking at a mod-mic that costs £35 on its own.
Sure Seinnheisers with destroy these with sound quality but you are also looking at paying more for the headphones alone. then add £35 for the mod-mic and £15 for the Xbox Adapter.
So at this price point, for someone without a Xbox One adapter or second generation XBO controller this is the best deal available. The biggest problem with TB headsets is the actual build quality, they are made from not exactly the strongest plastic, so you wll have to look at them if you don't want them to break,

Price is nice but I'd argue against the "Quality headset" part. :stuck_out_tongue:

Will these work on ps4 and xbox one? Or am I better off getting a different pair?

You are better off staying away from Turtlebeach in general.
I'd look more into Sennheiser/Sony/Philips headphones as you get better quality for your money.

Given the vastly better adaptor you get with these, which includes mic monitoring, is easily worth £20 on it's own these are excellent value and 90% of players will think the sound quality is great too.

My three boys all have this headset and love it!
The TB adapter plugs straight into the old controller and the headset jack into that.
It's a good adapter too with multi-step Bass Boost and Variable Mic Monitoring plus Game-Chat Mix and Mic Mute!

I bought these for £50 and they're great. This is a bargain. Heated.

I agree with what you have said, that is why I didnt mention anything to do with the price other than you can get better quality for your money. Anyone who is passionate about sound quality & build quality knows to avoid them but as they are so commercialized as console headsets they get a huge following. Buy cheap buy twice. I don't know about these mod-mic's or adapters but Id rather spend the money on a real headset and spend a few more quid on these extras you mentioned to have the sound quality and comfort we all deserve! :laughing:
