How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want a complete, ready-to-use wired gaming headset with its own drivers, mic and over-ear pads, choose Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm; if you need a replacement audio cable for an existing Astro A10/A20/A30/A40/A50 headset, choose Tobysome A50.
These two listings get compared because they both mention 3.5mm audio and gaming headsets, but they are not the same kind of product at all. One is a headset. The other is a cable. That single fact decides almost everything below — and once you see it, the choice gets easy.
• Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm — biggest strength: a complete over-ear headset with 40mm drivers, an adjustable omnidirectional boom mic, an inline rotary volume control, a mic on/off key and a 3.5mm plug that works with phones, tablets, laptops and other 3.5mm devices.
• Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm — biggest trade-off: it is strictly wired with a fixed 1.2m cable and no noise cancellation, so you are tethered to your device and it is not built for commuting or wireless freedom.
• Tobysome A50 — biggest strength: a 2m (about 6.6ft) replacement cable with an inline mic, volume wheel, mute button and call pickup/hangup button, designed to reconnect Astro A10/A20/A30/A40/A40TR/A50 headsets to an Xbox One controller, MixAmp, PC or Mac.
• Tobysome A50 — biggest trade-off: it is not a headset. If you do not already own one of the compatible Astro headsets, this cable does nothing for you on its own.
• Who Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm is for: someone who needs a full plug-and-play headset for gaming, calls or general listening on a 3.5mm device.
• Who Tobysome A50 is for: someone whose Astro headset cable is lost, frayed or broken and who wants a longer, feature-rich replacement.
The Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm is a self-contained wired gaming headset. It uses a 40mm dynamic driver with a 20Hz–20kHz frequency range, 32Ω impedance and 106dB sensitivity. In plain terms, that combination describes a headset designed to be easy to drive from ordinary 3.5mm outputs — a phone, tablet, laptop or console controller — without needing a separate amp. The manufacturer describes the sound as a vivid sound field with clarity and impact, which is the usual target for gaming audio where you want footsteps, gunfire and voice chat to sit clearly in the mix. The mic is an adjustable omnidirectional boom rated at -54dB, and the design intent is to pick up your voice while reducing background noise for in-game chat.
Who should buy it: anyone who needs one complete, budget-friendly headset for PC, laptop, phone or tablet gaming and voice chat, and who does not want to deal with batteries, dongles or software. It is also a reasonable pick for a young gamer or a spare headset for a second device, since it is aimed at an adult age range but stays simple to operate.
Who should skip it: if you already own an Astro headset and only need a cable, this is the wrong purchase. Also skip it if you want wireless audio, active noise cancellation, or a long cable run across a room — the 1.2m fixed cable and wired-only design rule those out.
Tobysome A50: Who It's For
The Tobysome A50 is a replacement cable, and it is honest about that. It is built for people who own an Astro A10, A20, A30, A40, A40TR or A50 gaming headset and need to replace a damaged or lost audio cord. It connects that headset to an Xbox One controller, a MixAmp, or a PC/Mac with a combined mic/headphone 3.5mm jack. The cable runs 2m, about 6.6 feet — noticeably longer than a typical stock cord, which is genuinely useful if you sit back from your screen or want slack while gaming on a couch.
The features are the interesting part. It includes a volume wheel, an inline microphone, a mute button and a call pickup/hangup button, and it is sometimes called a media controller cable or media cable for that reason. It also has a two-position switch: position A enables the microphone built into your A10 or A40 headset, while position B enables the inline mic inside the cable itself. That second detail matters — if you want the cable's buttons to control your phone or device, the switch needs to be in the B position. The cable uses a super core wire construction with gold-plated connectors, and the manufacturer claims clear, lossless 3D stereo transmission. It has a 7-pin male-to-male connector setup.
Who should buy it: Astro owners, full stop. If your A40 or A50 cable has gone crackly, or you lost it, this restores chat and volume control for a fraction of what a whole new headset would run. The inline mic and call button also make it more useful than a plain replacement cord, since you can take calls while using the headset with a phone.
Who should skip it: anyone who does not own one of the listed Astro headsets. It is also not a fix for a broken headset driver, a dead mic in the ear cup, or a wireless problem — it only replaces the cord. And if you want a headset in the box, this is not one.
• You need an actual headset → Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm. The Tobysome A50 has no ear cups, no drivers and no headband.
• You already own an Astro A10/A20/A30/A40/A40TR/A50 → Tobysome A50. It is the only one of the two designed to restore that headset.
• Best for long cable reach → Tobysome A50. Its 2m (6.6ft) length beats the Fesjoy's 1.2m (3.93ft).
• Best for plug-and-play voice chat out of the box → Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm. Boom mic, mute key and volume wheel are all built in, no switch positions to think about.
• Best for phone calls with a headset you already like → Tobysome A50. The inline mic and call pickup/hangup button plus the B switch position are made for that.
• Best for the widest device compatibility across phones, tablets and laptops → Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm. Its 3.5mm plug covers standard 3.5mm audio devices broadly.
• Best for Xbox One controller use → Tobysome A50, but only if you are pairing it with a compatible Astro headset. The Fesjoy headset works with 3.5mm audio devices generally, so it is a simpler route if you just want something to plug into a controller.
• Best for a buyer on a tight budget → both are affordable, but the right answer is whichever matches what you already own. Check the current price on Amazon before deciding, since the two products sit in very different categories.
In my opinion, most people searching these two names together want a working gaming headset, not a cable — so I would buy the Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm. It is a complete product: 40mm drivers, an adjustable boom mic, on-cable volume and mute, soft over-ear pads and a plug-and-play 3.5mm connection. It does the whole job on its own. The Tobysome A50 is the better pick only in one clear scenario — you already own a compatible Astro headset and need to replace its cord. If that is you, buy the Tobysome A50 and ignore the rest. If it is not, the Fesjoy is the one that actually gets you gaming.
No. The Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm is a complete over-ear wired headset with its own drivers and microphone. The Tobysome A50 is a replacement audio cable for Astro A10/A20/A30/A40/A40TR/A50 headsets. One is the product; the other is a part for a different product.
No. It is specifically built to connect Astro A10/A20/A30/A40/A40TR/A50 headsets to an Xbox One controller, MixAmp, PC or Mac. Without one of those headsets, the cable has nothing to attach to and no purpose.
Based on the spec sheet, no. Noise control is listed as "None," and the "noise canceling" wording in the listing refers to the over-ear pad design and the microphone reducing background noise in chat — not active noise cancellation.
The design suggests yes: soft over-ear pads and an adjustable headband are intended for extended wear, and the 32Ω impedance with 106dB sensitivity means it is easy to drive from a standard 3.5mm output without extra gear.
If you do not already own an Astro headset, go with the Fesjoy QUZHI 3.5mm — it plugs straight into a 3.5mm port and includes the mic and controls. The Tobysome A50 only makes sense as a cable replacement for an Astro headset you already have.
