Razer Kraken V3 HyperSense ($95): Razer's updated haptic feedback debuted in this gaming headset - it basically vibrates when the signal contains certain frequencies, in order to provide positional information and a more immersive experience. Read our SteelSeries Arctis Prime review. SteelSeries Arctis Prime ($40): The budget, cross-platform wireless Arctis Prime performs well, but if you're sensitive to fit, weight and other design-related considerations, I suggest you give it a heads-on before buying.

Razer refreshed it in 2022, boosting battery life to a rated 50 hours and adding Bluetooth for the same price. I wouldn't recommend the headset for cloud gaming, though. Razer Barracuda X ($96): The performance, audio quality and design of the Barracuda X make it an excellent choice for cross-platform players.
The Cloud II Wireless does have a better signal range as tested, though, and you can use it wirelessly with a PS4/PS5 and Nintendo Switch as well as a PC. HyperX Cloud II Wireless ($118): This is an excellent 7.1 surround headset that features HyperX's signature comfortable fit, which I ended up bumping from the list in favor of the Cloud Alpha Wireless because the Alpha's battery life is a huge distinguishing feature.
I powered through this time, and although I'm still not fond of the appearance, it's turned out to be one of my go-to headsets in why-doesn't-my-pc-see-my-wireless-headset emergencies.

The first time I saw the Rig series of gaming headsets - well before the brand was bought by gaming and accessory company Nacon - I was so turned off by the aesthetic I didn't even take the headset out of the box.

You do get a two-year activation card for a Dolby Atmos subscription (at least the last time I looked) for Windows 10/11 and Xbox One or later. It doesn't come with a headphone/mic splitter cable, a common omission in budget headsets, and the shortish cable isn't removable, but it's a good length if you're going to plug it into a controller for use with the Xbox. To adjust size, there's a combination of three notches on the headband - you basically pop out the earcup to move it, so if it comes under stress it just pops out - and a basic suspension band. Its flat rubber cable is a step up from competitors: Flatness makes it tangle-free and less susceptible to damage when I roll over it with my chair. The last generation of the headset got complaints about build quality, but I've been using it for months with no issues. The mic is both removable and flip-up, which you rarely see at this price. It's comfortable and relatively light with good 3D audio, pretty decent mic quality, good noise isolation and an inline volume control that's neither too far down the cable or too far up. You can find specific recommendations on our Best Xbox Gaming Headset and Best PS5 Gaming Headset lists. To get console-specific features, you might need to check out headsets designed specifically for them for instance, the Xbox Series X and S require Microsoft-sanctioned dongles (but Bluetooth works, too).

But depending on the hardware you may not get the full set of features, such as surround sound, mic monitoring (aka sidetone) and other capabilities that rely on software and a USB connection to function. Keep in mind that analog gaming headsets, which connect via 3.5mm jacks, can work with almost any device - a gaming PC, a PS5, an Xbox Series X or Series S, a Nintendo Switch and so on - in addition to regular Windows PCs. Plus, you may already be spending a ton of time on video calls, so treating yourself to a new headset can be a way to satisfy your work brain - yes, be that person wearing the huge headset in meetings - and your play brain without blowing a ton of money. When it comes to audio immersion, nothing beats a pair of cans right on your ears. Not only does a gaming headset make it easier to hear enemies moving around you, it can also enhance single-player experiences as well. Plus, a mic makes it possible to chat with your teammates, allowing for convenient strategizing, and in some cases to take calls from your phone at the same time. A high-quality sound system is nice, but it's no match for directional audio, especially if you're into multiplayer or horror games.
