I've been using both the song WF-1000 XM5 and the Razer hammerhead pro hyper speed over the past year so here's my two cents: For work calls the sony buds are hard to beat. The noise cancelling is amazing, and people on zoom meet always hear me clearly. They're super comfortable for long calls too. The only downside is gaming the audio lag is noticeable if you play anything competitive. Fine for casual stuff though. Razer hammerhead are opposite. They don't block as much background noise, but the low latency mode actually works. I can play shooter's without that wired audio delay and the mic is decent enough for dicords and meetings.
i've been using wireless earbuds for meetings for about a year now. honestly the dongle connection is a game changer for stability. i tried the razer hammerheads and they were decent but the mic wasn't as good as i hoped. what helped me was getting a [laptop stand](https://metadoraffi-eng.github.io/shopit?adjustable+laptop+stand) to position my laptop's built-in mic better as backup. the poly voyager free 60+ might fit your budget and has great teams certification.
Razer Hammerhead Pro hyperspeed for wireless and Moondrop x Crinacle dusk for wired.
Tried the Hammerhead Pro, olid low latency in game mode, but mic's just okay. EPOS GTW 270 is better for voice chat, super clear with the dongle. Avoid XM4s for gaming — great sound, awful lag. If you're on a budget, Soundcore Liberty 4 ain't bad either.
I use razer hammerhead tws pro earbuds and they have a ultra low latency gaming mode wich cuts the lag down to it being almost not there at all. I cant for the life of me notice anything, i have a pair of xm5 headphones and the lag on those is really present so mich its pulling me out of the game.
Razer Hammerhead Pro buds with the 2.4ghz dongle.
I have some Razer Hammerhead TWS Pro that are like 5 years old. Used them on my deck and use them now on my ROG Ally X. They have a “gaming mode” that reduces the Bluetooth latency on them, really hard to notice unless you’re looking for it. I think I got them for like $120
Sorry but I think you are misunderstanding what OP means by working with their consoles. It's not just audio we're talking about here, it's the ability to have audio AND chat working at the same time while in-game. This is NOT a feature that none gaming earbuds will have. The only other earbuds I know of that can do this are the Razer Hammerhead Hyperspeed Xbox and/or PS5 edition. Otherwise, you can of course get a wireless headset... But then you would have to deal with the discomfort of having a heavy headset on your head. These types of earbuds are for a very particular crowd.
