How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want a wired multiplatform headset with the biggest drivers and a boom mic you can flip up and instantly mute, choose Turtle Beach Atlas 200; if you need a headset with a detachable mic, on-ear media controls and a reinforced frame built to shrug off marathon sessions and the occasional rage moment, choose GLORIOUS GHS Eternal.
• Turtle Beach Atlas 200 — biggest strength: 50mm Nanoclear drivers plus a floating headband and ProSpecs dual-foam cushions that are specifically shaped to relieve pressure for glasses wearers.
• Turtle Beach Atlas 200 — biggest trade-off: the microphone is fixed to the headset (flip-to-mute), so you can't detach it for music-only listening or travel.
• GLORIOUS GHS Eternal — biggest strength: a detachable mic and on-ear playback controls turn it into a dual-purpose headset for gaming and everyday music on the move.
• GLORIOUS GHS Eternal — biggest trade-off: smaller 40mm drivers on a lighter-looking build, so it leans on tuning and comfort rather than raw driver size.
• Pick the Turtle Beach Atlas 200 if you want one wired headset for Xbox, PlayStation and PC with a mic that's always ready.
• Pick the GLORIOUS GHS Eternal if you want one wired headset for PC, consoles, Switch and mobile, with a mic you can pull off when you're not talking.
The Atlas 200 is built around one idea: give console and PC players a comfortable, no-fuss wired headset that works everywhere. Its 50mm Nanoclear dynamic drivers cover a 20Hz–20kHz range, which is the standard full-range window for gaming audio — nothing exotic, but the large driver size is the headline spec here, and larger drivers generally move more air and give low-end effects like explosions and engine rumble more body. That's the kind of sound signature that suits big single-player campaigns and shooters where you want impact as much as detail.
Comfort is where this headset really makes its case. At roughly 280g it sits in the light end of the over-ear category, and the floating headband is designed to spread weight across the top of your head instead of pressing on one spot. Then there's the ProSpecs dual-foam ear cushion design, which is a genuinely specific feature: the foam is layered so it gives way around the arms of your glasses rather than clamping them against your temples. If you wear glasses and normally get a headache an hour into a session, that detail matters more than any spec on a box.
On the mic side, the Atlas 200 uses a uni-directional flip-to-mute boom. Uni-directional means it focuses on your voice and rejects sound from behind and around it, and flip-to-mute means you raise the boom to cut the mic — no software, no button hunting. The trade-off is that the mic is permanently attached. Skip the Atlas 200 if you want to use one headset for gaming and then walk out the door listening to music without a boom in your face, or if you prefer on-cable playback controls — this one connects over a standard 3.5mm jack and leaves media control to your device or its companion app.
The GHS Eternal takes the opposite approach. Instead of one fixed boom, it ships with a detachable microphone, so you can pull it off and use the headset as a plain pair of wired headphones for music, videos or commuting. The mic itself is described as crystal clear with an adjustable boom, so you can position it where it picks you up best — and when you're mid-match and need your callouts to land, that adjustability plus the detachable design gives you flexibility the Atlas 200 simply doesn't offer.
Audio here comes from custom-tuned, angled 40mm dynamic drivers. The drivers are smaller than the Atlas 200's, but the tuning and the angled mounting are the point: angled drivers are positioned to fire slightly into the ear canal, which helps with directional cues — the footstep behind you, the tyre screech to your left. Frequency response runs 20Hz–20,000Hz with 32 ohm impedance and 95dB sensitivity, which tells you it's an easy load for a phone, controller or laptop headphone jack to drive. Passive noise cancellation via the ear cup seal rounds out the isolation.
Durability and convenience are the other pillars. Glorious describes the frame as reinforced and built for intense marathon sessions and being carried around daily — hence the "rage-proof" framing. The suspension headband and breathable ear cups keep weight balanced, and there are on-ear controls for play, pause and skipping tracks, which is a real quality-of-life win when the headset is plugged into a phone rather than a PC. It also carries a 2-year manufacturer warranty. Skip the GHS Eternal if you want maximum driver size for heavy cinematic bass, or if you'd rather never worry about losing a small detachable mic.
Side-by-Side: Which Should You Choose?
• Biggest drivers / most low-end impact → Turtle Beach Atlas 200 (50mm vs 40mm dynamic drivers).
• Mic flexibility → GLORIOUS GHS Eternal — detachable and adjustable, versus the Atlas 200's fixed flip-to-mute boom.
• Glasses wearers → Turtle Beach Atlas 200 — the ProSpecs dual-foam cushions are designed for exactly this.
• Music and media on the go → GLORIOUS GHS Eternal — detachable mic plus on-ear play/pause/skip controls.
• Marathon-session durability → GLORIOUS GHS Eternal — reinforced materials and a 2-year manufacturer warranty.
• Quiet-room isolation → GLORIOUS GHS Eternal — passive noise cancellation from the cup seal; the Atlas 200 lists no noise control.
• Console-first setup → Turtle Beach Atlas 200 — built for Xbox, PlayStation and PC over a standard 3.5mm jack.
• Widest device list → GLORIOUS GHS Eternal — PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox, Switch and mobile, all over 3.5mm.
In my opinion, most people shopping this pair should buy the Turtle Beach Atlas 200. The 50mm drivers, 280g weight and the ProSpecs glasses-friendly cushions add up to a headset that's purpose-built for long console and PC sessions, and the flip-to-mute boom is the simplest mic mute there is. I'd only steer you to the GLORIOUS GHS Eternal if the detachable mic and on-ear controls matter more to you than driver size — it's the better pick if you want one wired headset that does gaming and everyday listening. Either way, check the current price on Amazon before you commit, since that's the one thing specs can't tell you.
Not universally. The Atlas 200 wins on driver size (50mm), weight and glasses-friendly ear cushions. The GHS Eternal wins on mic flexibility, on-ear controls and reinforced durability. It comes down to whether you value raw audio hardware or everyday versatility.
Both are 3.5mm headsets with voice-focused mics, but they're designed differently. The Atlas 200 uses a uni-directional flip-to-mute boom that's always attached. The GHS Eternal uses an adjustable detachable mic you can remove entirely. If you want a mic that's always there, pick Turtle Beach; if you want the option to leave it behind, pick Glorious.
Yes — both connect over a standard 3.5mm jack. The GHS Eternal explicitly lists Switch and mobile alongside PC and consoles, and its 32 ohm impedance and 95dB sensitivity make it easy to drive from a phone or controller. The Atlas 200 is positioned around Xbox, PlayStation and PC but uses the same 3.5mm standard.
Both use memory foam and suspension-style headbands. The Atlas 200 is the lighter option at roughly 280g and adds dual-foam cushions shaped for glasses wearers. The GHS Eternal counters with breathable ear cups and a balanced suspension fit. In my opinion the Atlas 200 has the edge for glasses wearers specifically.
