Steelseries Arctis nova 5p. They cost about £130. I have had so many sets of wired headsets and either the mic breaks or the cable screw up, or they are cheap and I sit on them or something. So I thought I would get wireless ones and I honestly can't complain. The battery life is amazing and the sound quality is great. You can spend more but to be honest I don't know what I am missing with the more expensive ones so couldn't say. But it's mad, you can hear whether someones above you, behind you etc, mad.

Those steel series ones I got are amazing. Wireless and battery last ages. 200 dollars or pounds.

Have been through many, can highly recommend SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P Wireless Gaming Headset and i use them for both pc and ps dayz. Comfortable for extended hours of use easily. Pull out mic, and easy mute button as well. It actually has a dayz setting as well and the 3d directional sound is unbeatable. https://preview.redd.it/2shgioixpyaf1.jpeg?width=1320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dcaaa085913d5893203111901e0f5a6ba425791d

From steel series I would go with the artics nova 5P. I prefer the build quality over the 7P, and quality sound wise would be pretty much the same.

I've had a fair few headsets now and the one I'm currently using is the Arctis Nova 5p. Super comfortable since I wear glasses AND kinda have a big head lol really soft earcups and they're really easy to change too. The hyper x cloud are comfortable too, but I found they ended up loosening too much so they started falling down eventually. Haven't had that with the steel series ones yet though🤞

I had the 3D Pulse for a year and a half. Bought a SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P last week and it is so much better at every level. Annoyed that I didn‘t bought it sooner.
