HS80 RGB WIRELESS

CORSAIR HS80 RGB WIRELESS... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09BBPTDWX?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share This is what me, my husband and our friend all use.

Absolutely. I'm picky on fit because of jaw issues. Its also, you can get gel ear pads too for it that are cooler if you want vs the factory ones. My husband loves then since his ears tend to get hot.

Turtle beach used to be the go to for a lot of peeps. a couple of my friends had it. but lately the mic quality’s just been weird. It’s kinda muffled and inconsistent. still usable. but not what it used to be imo. The [nova one](https://x.com/HotScopeDeals/status/1981285390863781928) feels decent. it doesn’t feel heavy after a few hours. and the overall sound has that crisp mix (good for hearing small details). but it’s pricey. Corsair’s honestly not far behind tho. good value for what it is. plus no weird sound drop offs. the others you mentioned all kinda blend together. like they do work. but they don’t really feel right once you’ve tried something a bit higher quality.

Corsair HS80 RGB. Not really a good headset, but by far the best mic.

# 1. SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 (or 7X / 7P) * price: often around $140–$150 on sale * pros: excellent soundstage for positional awareness, comfortable ski-band design, multi-platform (pc, ps, xbox depending on model), dual wireless + bluetooth. * cons: battery life is good but not best-in-class (\~38 hours). # 2. hyperx cloud alpha wireless * price: \~$130 * pros: outstanding battery life (up to 300 hours), clear directional audio, strong build, comfortable memory foam padding. * cons: no bluetooth, mostly pc/ps compatible. # 3. logitech g pro x 2 lightspeed (if you found on sale) * price: normally $250, but sales can drop it to $150 \~$170. * pros: fantastic positional sound with dts headphone:x, swappable earpads, low-latency lightspeed dongle. * cons: might stretch your budget unless discounted. # 4. corsair hs80 rgb wireless * price: \~$120 * pros: dolby atmos support, very good mic quality, comfortable floating headband, works on pc and ps5. * cons: battery life is shorter (\~20 hours). # 5. razer blackshark v2 pro (2023 ed) * price: \~$150 * pros: clear positional audio, lightweight, improved mic quality, 70-hour battery life. * cons: sound signature leans toward bass heavy if unadjusted. requirements: * under $150 * wireless/ a dongle not a headphone jack * good positional sounds * noise cancellation (not a MUST) let me break down your requirements real quick wireless will always have some latency even with low latency dongles so if you are aiming for competitive gaming you are already putting yourself at a disadvantage good positional sound usually comes from open back headphones but those do not block outside noise if by noise cancellation you mean active noise cancellation (ANC) it actually hurts positional accuracy because it alters the sound cues and is more useful for airplanes or travel closed back headphones already block some outside noise but not in a way that ruins positional sound for casual gaming you can spend less and still get solid wireless options for competitive gaming wired open back headphones are still the best since they give you a wider soundstage and make it feel like you have wall hacks.

I just don't think the argument is all that compelling. For example, I hate cables, and I need a mic. My Corsair HS80 wireless cost me less than 100 euro. I tried a pair of Sony XM3s, they cost me about 250 and the experience using them on PC is awful, yet they were considered just about the best wireless headphones available. For sub 100 I got a wireless headset, that sounds great to me, the mic is great, and has great range, allowing me to do chores while listening to content or still chatting with friends on discord. If you can recommend me wireless headphones and mic that magically ticks all those boxes then great, but til then I'll stick with my cheap headset, and when people specifically request a headset then I'll give a headset recommendation.

Would recommend the HS80 myself, great mic. I've only had the wireless variant though

Imo the mic quality on the corsair hs80 is great but if you have a larger budget you can probably do better.
