Astro’s first wired earbuds, Astro A03 In-Ear Monitor
Playing Fortnite on your phone wearing chunky headsets? Those days are over with the arrival of the Astro A03 In-Ear Monitor. Astro best known for their PC and console headset has entered the world of gaming buds. Astro’s reputation for high-quality gear has earned it plenty of fans among PC and console.
HyperX and Turtle Beach have been producing gaming ear buds for while, but this is Astro’s first venture. The A03 are compatible with all the consoles and most phones with a 3.5 mm jack (sorry apple fan boys).
Astro have packed two drivers into each bud, one for mid and high, the other for bass, giving a perfect balanced sound. The cord has all the usual controls and built in mic. It feels a little cheap compared to the metal buds, but they do retail for around $50.
