4 Best Wireless Gaming Headphones
Every gamer wants to have an immersive gaming experience — and this can be made possible through some adjustments to their gaming setup, such as an HD monitor and a keyboard and mouse with low latency. Another thing you’ll need is a gaming headset, and as Technavio reports, most gamers are beginning to prefer wireless headsets over traditionally wired ones. The global market for the product is poised to grow by $999 million by 2024, overtaking other types of headsets. If you’re looking for good sound quality and excellent soundscape replication for your games, then you should consider wireless headphones. Below are four options you can look at:
HyperX Cloud II Wireless
The HyperX Cloud II Wireless looks and feels the same as its wired counterpart, with earpads made of soft memory foam and flexible faux leather on the headband’s underside that make for a comfortable fit — extremely ideal since this has a stellar battery life of 30 hours. It also has a detachable microphone so it doesn’t get in the way when not in use. And when you do want to use the mic, you can expect a clear and brilliant sound. This headphone’s closed-back design and stereo soundscape give some extra bass that sounds great during gaming. The HyperX Cloud II Wireless is priced at $150, which is a very reasonable price considering its features and comfort.
Razer Barracuda X
The Barracuda X is the newest wireless headphone from Razer. For $100, you already have a headset from a popular gaming brand that could last up to 20 hours. It comes with USB-C connectivity for charging and audio wireless transmission, the latter making it a multi-platform device that can be paired with the PC, PS5, Switch, and others. It also works as a wired device. The earpads are soft and breathable but dense enough for noise isolation. The Barracuda X uses the TriForce driver design, which redirects the low, medium, and high frequencies into their own section of the driver so the game’s soundscape doesn’t come out muddled. Like the HyperX Cloud II Wireless, it also has a detachable mic, allowing you to use it hassle-free even when you’re not on a voice channel in-game.
Logitech H800
If you’re on a budget, you can consider the Logitech H800. But despite costing only $90, it’s still one of the top computer headsets listed by Adorama. While it may have a shorter battery life of 6 hours, it still delivers stellar audio quality for games. It has a padded headband and thick ear pads that make for a comfortable fit that you can use for hours. The H800 also has laser-tuned drivers that minimize distortion and a built-in EQ that optimizes sound so you get clear audio while you’re playing. Its microphone has noise cancellation technology as well, so you can stream or play with your friends without worrying too much about the noise in your environment.
Master & Dynamic MG20
On the higher end of the price range, this gaming headset by Master & Dynamic is a great choice. The MG20 is the company’s first gaming headphone and is set to be released on November 16. However, the gaming community’s already buzzing about the product. At $450, it has a battery life of 22 hours and comes with a low-latency adapter that lets you use it on a PlayStation or PC if you want to play it as a wired headphone. It has both a detachable and built-in mic. Not only does it have a durable and comfortable design, but it also has a head detection function that automatically turns it off to save battery life. It has excellent sound detail, from great bass response to good mids, which recreates a game’s soundscape beautifully.
Gaming headsets are made to give you an immersive experience regardless of what you play. Wireless headphones take things a step further from their wired counterparts by offering better convenience and soundscape recreation.
