Hi I wanted to know what you guys recommend for an Xbox wireless Headset that won’t break the bank? I’ve had the Rig 800LX headset since 2020 and it’s been giving me problems with the disconnecting and mic not working but other then that the sound and comfort is great. Was just looking into getting a new pair for my Xbox series x. I’ve been looking at the Steel Series Arctis 9X and Arctis Nova 7X, Rig 800 Pro HX, Corsair HS80, and the Raizer Kaira Pro. I wanted a great sounding, great quality, comfortable, and Dolby atmos equipped headset. The 800LX does everything amazing except for the connection issues. Not sure if the new Rig headsets have the same issue or not or if I should just go with another brand
My wired Corsairs are slowly dying. I've had them for about 7-8 years and they've served me well. I'm now looking for a wireless headset. Does anyone know if there are any wireless Corsairs that work for Xbox Series X? Thanks!

I have a Razer Kiara wireless and having annoying issues with it, most of the time when I turn it on to connect to the Xbox it does that "connect disconnect" loop issue and now I'm having issues whenever it disconnects when no sound is played normally, I reconnected it and said I have no mic. I had to restart my Xbox to fix it, I just need a new wireless headset that is worth buying.
As the title says, money is no object what headset are you buying? I'm so sick of Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 max and the volume wheels crapping out every 3 months and I want to move to the best headset I can get.
Most reviews have the following: Audeze Maxwell ASTRO A50x Turtle Beach Stealth Pro Steel series arctis nova pro
I'm a couch player so no wired headsets - battery life somewhat matters to me but if the difference is 30hrs versus 80hrs I don't care if the other features are better on the shorter life one. Otherwise sound quality and ease of use are paramount.
Hey all,
A few months ago, I bought the official xbox wireless headset for my series s. Immediately, it started have problems like cutting out occasionally, distorting the sound, and disconnecting my controller. I don't think the headset was defective, but I live in a dense apartment complex with a lot of wifi signals. These probably caused interference, which is unavoidable in my situation.
I would like a new headset, but I'm afraid that anything I buy will have the same issue. Can anyone speak to a headset (wireless or wired to the controller) they are using that works consistently in an apartment setting?
I'm looking for some new headphones/ head set to use when I play on the XBOX, ideally wireless and comfortable as I usually play for hours at a time. Any recommendation please, the ones I currently have are just from Amazon and the audio quality isn't great. I've seen these ones reviewed by one of the gamers I watch, let me know your recommendations though please. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CxyGDpTNr5R/
Hello everyone,
Looking into getting a wireless headset for my series x. Been looking at the current headsets out there and a couple caught my eye.. currently looking at the Turtle beach 700 gen 2 max or the Kiara pro.
Any opinions or thoughts? Recommendations?
Thanks.
Just thought I’d share my personal experience with the Xbox wireless headset.
I have a PS5 and a Series X, my ps5 I’m using the turtle beach stealth 700 gen 2’s (after trying out the arctis 7p, pulse 3d and Razer black shark pro) I really enjoyed the sound and simplicity of the turtle beach and how powerful the 50mm drivers are.
When I was getting a headset for the series x, I tried the Arctis 7X, turtle beach stealth 600 gen 2, Razer Kaira pro, and finally the official Xbox wireless headset.
In terms of sound quality, the Arctis 7X, Razer Kaira Pro, and Xbox Wireless sound very similar. I think the Arctis 7X has the best directional audio, and the Razer Kaira Pro feeling the most powerful in terms of bass. But there was something about how crystal clean and gentle sounding the Xbox Wireless sounded that truly sold me. What I mean by gentle sounding, it is by no means weak sounding, when you crank the volume up it THUMPS during action scenes. I was actually quite surprised considering the drivers are 40mm. But what made this headset differ from the others was how clean and natural the sound is. It just doesn’t feel compressed at all. Straight out of the box and I have not adjusted a single setting yet and it sounds wonderful. I can’t explain it, it just sounds so natural and comfortable.
Also the mic is excellent. My friends tell me that they can hear me crystal clear. They said that it’s much better that the turtle beach and also better than the arctis 7X. EDIT - In the last few days a few of my friends have said that my mic picked up a lot of background feedback. Increasing the mic threshhold in COD did help this a bit, but now I can't speak gently for the mic to pick up my voice. I still have not figured out a way to fix it for Xbox party chat
I’m still getting used to the knobs on the side and learning how to work with it, I haven’t even touched the EQ settings yet. I just genuinely think this headset is perfect. Even how the knobs on the side twist is very unique.
Comparing the pulse 3d I think this headset blows it out of the water for an official console branded headset.
But yea I give this headset a solid 9/10 if not more. Even the leather headband is more comfy than the arctis headband.
My only concern is it does in fact look like it can break rather easy so I will do my best to take extra care of it. Also got the 2 year warranty so I’m not worried.
Just thought I’d share my honest review of this headset as I usually have a bunch of negative things to say about my electronics and it’s very rare to find a headset that was this problem free right out of the box
What is the best headset for Xbox for games like rainbow six seige and hearing footsteps and stuff good. Any price.
I was thinking of getting a wireless headset as wired ones don’t seem to last so i was wondering what the best one would be in your opinion.
IGN says the best one is the Turtle Beach Stealth 500 but i haven’t heard many people talk about it so i was wondering if there is anything better or if the stealth 500 would be just fine
I hear mixed things about it. I wanted them but since they’re 100$, it’s hard to drop that much since I heard some people talking about the sound quality and comfortability.
I'm currently looking for a headset for the Xbox. In the price range of 60-120€. I attach a lot of importance to the sound and the microphone. Are there any good headsets in this price range and which ones would you recommend?
This is the 3rd wireless headset that has just been garbage for some reason. Currently I’m using a SteelSeries set and I’m having to either reset my console, or move the stupid dongle piece into one of the various usb ports, or turn my headset on and off over and over until it finally works. Then like 90% of the time I can’t use the volume mixer at all and my headset is quiet as hell.
Can anyone recommend a headset that just plugs right into the controller? Wired only. I don’t want USB receivers or Bluetooth or having to plug something into something else into something else into my Xbox to hope it works.
I have my Logitech g435 headset and galaxy 2 pods for my rog ally but just picked up a series s today and need a decent headset under 100. Either over the ear or ear pod style
Looking into buying a headset that I can use for both systems. Any suggestions?
Mostly playing COD multiplayer right now on Xbox and maybe Fortnite or single player games on PS5 occasionally.
I’ve looked into some brands like Astro, HyperX, Turtle Beach, SteelSeries and I’m about overwhelmed with all the different options.
Which is a solid one? Don’t need anything too expensive, just something that works great with not too many issues and has great sound for playing multiplayer games.
