I personally use the official Xbox wireless headset with a bunch of all the Dolby stuff and the sound and mic are beyond amazing and you don't need those dongles. Sorry I don't know much but I like it and it works for me. Answer from Deleted User on reddit.com

r/XboxSeriesS on Reddit: I need a new wireless headset, anyone highly recommend anything?
March 23, 2025 -

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.

r/XboxSupport on Reddit: Is the Xbox Wireless Headset Gen 2 even worth it?
November 12, 2024 -

My Gen 1 Wireless Headset are on its last legs and are going to go out within a few months. I was excited when Xbox announced the new version of these…and then problems started to arise.

Connection issues, Volume issues and Mic issues have been reported yet nobody seems to have a clue on how this is happening. I don’t want to buy this and then come home to a problem that i cannot fix and then I’m out 100$.

It doesn’t help that Microsoft basically discontinued the Gen 1 Headsets so i don’t even have a choice BUT to buy these and pray to god nothing goes wrong.

So, are these things worth it to get or should I just buy another wireless headset from a different manufacturer like HyperX or Steelseries?

r/gadgets on Reddit: Microsoft’s refreshed Xbox Wireless Headset has a better mic and more battery life | Dolby Atmos and Bluetooth 5.3 support are also available on this new model.
October 22, 2024 - They released the "pro" version not too terribly long ago, and it came with a wireless charging dock, better audio, a retractable mic with a better capsule for mic quality, and a few other goodies for a still reasonable $150. Not that the Xbox headset isn't good value at ~$100, or $110 for the refresh, but I feel like this minor refresh gives little reason for people to grab it over their previous headset, unless they're buying a new Xbox, which given Xbox sales figures doesn't seem like too many people.

March 8, 2024 -

Looking into purchasing one of these. I’ve been looking at a lot of reviews (both videos and written reviews). I see a lot of negatives with the quality of the plastic, especially on Amazon. A ton of people have had the volume nobs fall off, the mic completely cracking and breaking off, and sometimes the battery not recharging or charging at all. Apparently that’s only owning it within 3-7months too.

I’m not using it for gaming really. I only use my Xbox to talk with friends in a party so the bass and sound mixing options mean nothing to me. I just want something wireless to be able to walk around my house and talk in a party chat. I’ve heard these never cut out when using them with an Xbox One (I have a Xbox One X).

Looking for some honest opinions on this product, I would really appreciate it.

September 9, 2022 -

I'm looking for a good decent headset for gaming on my Series X. I almost never game in parties with others, only with Fall Guys with my girlfriend and sister, but that's it.

However, I am looking for a headset that gives good enough sound for a good experience during atmospheric games like Scorn or Alien Isolation.

The Xbox wireless headset seems very interesting and seems like a smart buy. It is within my price range (I think 100 euros is more than enough money for a headset). I also looked at the Razer Blackshark V2 X, the Logitech G433 and the Steelseries Arctis 3.

Can you guys give me advice and your opinion on the Xbox Wireless headset (and possibly the other headsets I mentioned)

I’m currently thinking about buying the official xbox headset because its wireless and it has a pretty low price for wireless headsets. Do you guys have other recommendations for wireless xbox headsets for around the same price point?

r/XboxSeriesX on Reddit: Xbox Wireless Headset Recommendations
November 17, 2023 -

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

r/xboxone on Reddit: Why are wireless headset mics so bad on Xbox?
February 17, 2024 -

I’ve been using a wired headset that plugs into the Xbox controller for the longest time but it’s starting to show its age so I wanted to upgrade to a wireless headset.

Bought the Microsoft wireless headset cause I saw it had good review on Amazon, target, etc. and it sounded good when I first started using it, then I got into a party with my friends and they said my mic sounded terrible. After looking for a solution on reddit it seems that the consensus is that the mic is just bad so fair enough I didn’t research enough and returned it.

Looked into what wireless headset actually had a “good” mic and settled on the Arctic Nova 7x which was almost double the price of the Microsoft wireless headset. And again it sounded good but as soon as I got into an Xbox party I was told my mic sounded terrible, I even tried updating the headset and tinkering around with the settings on the Steelseries app on PC to try to make it better, but I was told no matter what I do, my wired mic sounded WAY better.

So what’s the deal? Are all wireless headsets like this or am I just really unlucky? now I’m just looking to get a new wired headset cause I’m tired of gambling on wireless and trying to make it work.

Hey folks,

Wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a decent wireless headset that will function with my Xbox Series S and my PC.

I want to be able to use them fairly seamlessly and not have to mess around with dongles and wires etc. I won’t need to use them simultaneously but I want the new headset to function well when gaming on Xbox or PC.

I’ve seen a few comments about the Official Xbox Wireless headset and was encouraged by the dual functionality, but went on to read that there’s a significant audio delay that’s noticeable when playing certain games (FPS etc). Given that I play alot of CoD and Overwatch, this was quite concerning.

I also saw comments about the Arctis Nova 7 but many saying the microphone is awful and that people have to shout to be heard in games.

Budget is probably maximum £200.

Any advice is welcomed!

October 22, 2024 - I use the Arctis Nova 7X headset and it’s pretty good. A bit expensive (think they were $150 or so) but they’ve been good to me. These seem like a solid deal at $100 though. ... I have the arctic nova 7p and the Xbox version one.

I don't think I have a big head. I've never had an issue in the past 20 years with headsets.

But I bought the new wireless headset yesterday and after only about 30 minutes the top my head felt like I had a knife going through it.

I kept loosening it all night long you never got any better. Side pressure from the ear cups was very tight as well.

Sound was good. I downloaded the Dolby app right away. I'm hoping these loosen up a bit because I don't think I'll be able to live with these.

December 1, 2025 - I have the second edition of the Xbox Wireless Headset with the free Dolby Atmos. Static occurs once in a while, but that is to be expected with a wireless headset and it’s not a big issue. Good quality for $120. Even the Stereo wired headset is pretty solid for $60.r/XboxSeriesXlS • Whats the best headset for series X?
