What Is The Best Gaming Headset?
Are Gaming Headsets Worth It?
Do Expensive Gaming Headsets Make A Difference?
A bit of insight. I’m primarily a solo gamer, I play by myself a lot & the games I do play are mostly single player. I’m looking for a new headset that can help me fully immerse into the game I’m playing.
I struggle with ADHD & misophonia, I hate a lot of noise & having too many distractions while gaming, it takes away my enjoyment because I’m unable to concentrate, so noise cancelling is an absolute must, probably the most important feature I’m looking for.
Comfort. I’m so tired of gaming headsets hurting my ears & head after wearing them for long periods of time. I need something light with a ‘premium’ feel, almost like I’m not wearing it I guess? I don’t want my ears sweating & hurting after two hours of gaming.
I’m willing to spend between £100-£200 ($135-$250), probably even more if it means I’ll get absolutely everything I’m looking for. I figure if I’m going to invest in a new headset I want it to be solid & last me a good few years, so with all that being said, what headset would you recommend? Any help would be appreciated!
Checked pretty much everything there is on the internet, but most posts are too old now. What I need the most is it to be wireless and preferably have Game/Chat mix. I’m planning to use in only for my PC (for PS5 I have been using Astro A50 gen 4 for 5 years, they are still fine, but I want something new and better + I’m tired to take them from my PC to PS5 every time, so I need one dedicated headset only for my PC).
So, out of all headsets here are my picks:
Logitech G Pro X 2 (not sure about the sound, tried them, Cloud 3s sounds better IMO)
Hyper X Cloud 3s (no game/chat mix and 3,5mm unfortunately)
Astor A50X (there is no A50 gen 5 in my country and + I don’t want to have 2 almost the same headsets LOL)
Razer BlackShark v3 pro (not a fan of Razer overall, but noise canceling sounds amazing)
Arctis Nova Pro Wireless (heard that it has connection and cracking sound, same as I have on Arctis 7 back in a day)
I also had Audeze Maxwell and sold them, unbearably HEAVY, but sounded the best out of all BY FAR.
If you have any other recommendations, please, feel free to share.
For now I like Cloud 3s the most, probably. But lack of Game/Chat mix and 3,5 jack is what holds me back.
I also have HD6xx and I love them, but I hate wires when playing.
