These help tremendously, as I was looking at a few of these myself, so !thanks ! If I can add on, I bought a HyperX cloud stinger wireless before as my boyfriend's sounds pretty good - bought it from the same place, same price, etc etc - and no matter what I did it sounded absolutely abysmal, like I was stuck in a wind tunnel. Charging cord is also extremely short, so if you want to charge and use it you're a bit out of luck. I have Jbl quantum's currently and the sound is good, just one day suddenly the mic stopped working - if you can somehow avoid that happening, they're a good lower tier headset that I found worked pretty well. However they do have in headset controls but i haven't found a problem with them apart from the mic mute button just sometimes not muting.

low budget gamer here too, if mic bleed is the issue, go for a 3.5mm headset with a proper boom mic like HyperX Cloud Stinger or Razer BlackShark V2 X or even entry Turtle Beach models, they handle voice isolation much better than earphones.

No problem! I just wanted to make sure I knew the distinction before making a recommendation. Within your budget all gaming headsets will be pretty comparable to one-another due to limitations so you really can’t go wrong with any, but I think that HyperX is the best in the budget wired-headset department. I’d look into their sub-40€ options and go from there, they also go on sale fairly often. You can generally find a headset within the HyperX Cloud Stinger lineup under that budget often. I haven’t personally tried the JBL headset you mentioned so I can’t give an opinion on it.

Wondering if anybody has any recommendations for a wireless gaming headset. I apparently have a small head (or maybe all the headsets are just made for men, idk). Anyways, I really like the ones I have (HyperX Cloud Stinger), I've had them for a few years, but even on the smallest setting they still constantly fall off my head and they kill my neck after a while. Any suggestions?

If you're talking about the Cloud Stingers you can't wrong. They're amazing for the price.
