I use hyperx cloud orbit s (which are just audeze planars, but wired). I don’t play many games usually, but been playing battlefield 6 recently and holy cow, I agree.
Wired Hyperx, because EVERY BT buds are waking up my Deck randomly.
Hyper x. Are pretty decent, had mine for around 3 years, no sign of wear and tear, still crispy clean audio, they are wired. The included mic was ok, but I disconnected it as I have a blue yeti. Would recommend
Hyperx are great! Have been using some daily for 3 years, still perfect!
I bought a HyperX wired and it felt pretty quality to me, is there something specific you were looking for? Personally idk that ive ever found something better than the Klipsch earbuds ive had for over a decade. The Razer BlackShark V3 is ridiculously light but has worked purrfectly with a fully wireless setup, no crosstalk. You might have read the posts in the Wiki community bookmark but if not there's 2 on headsets that might help.
That's why i mentioned the Razer Blackshark, but I couldve been clearer. I have my mouse, headset, keyboard, and controller all wireless connected to my pc. Granted they are all using the original dongles and some care is observed with plugging them too close together, they never interfere with each other or lag even after long sessions of use. Assuming your intention of "quality" is how cheaply made something feels, the BlackShark actually feels less quality than the HyperX as the BS is so light it feels like a toy. Where HyperX actually had weight to the headset and was about half the price. My advice would be just ask your favorite streamer what they use and buy that, there's already a bunch of great recommendations by others here.
The HyperX Cloud series is pretty good and affordable.
At that price point you have to unfortunately pick and choose. Can't have all of that. One headset I've enjoyed around the 50 mark that has a removable microphone is the Hyperx Cloud series headsets.
hyperx is what i use, never had an issue
no not cheap look at the hyperx cloud series of headsets
yup yup! just make sure it has the proper headphone jack an should be good
My headphones' left side doesn't work, unless when used with a audio to USB C adaptor with my phone. For whatever reason, it doesn't work with the split headset/microphone one, combined ones, or USB to headset/microphone adaptor. HyperX model number MSIP REM K98 CR I don't remember the regular name. HyperX Cloud Series S or something like that.
