Picking Out the Perfect Gaming Headset

Are you interested in getting a headset that will make gaming more convenient and fun? Here are some important factors you should consider as you shop for headsets.

Should You Get Corded or Cordless Gaming Headsets?

Cordless headsets are ideal for the active gamer. They keep you from getting tangled up in a cord, and you can get up to grab a snack without ever having to take off your headset. However, if you want fast setup, a corded gaming headset can be nice because you just plug in the USB connector or aux cable and go instead of having to fiddle with pairing the headset to your console or PC. Another perk is that wired headsets do not need to be charged.

What Types of Games Do You Play?

Do you spend a lot of time in multiplayer first-person shooters like the Call of Duty series? You're going to want a headset with good audio and a sensitive microphone for strategizing with your team. If you like more traditional console games then communication may not be as important, allowing you to go for a more affordable model. An additional consideration is where you play. Is privacy an issue? A noise-canceling headset may be appreciated by both you and roommates or family members.

What are Your Mic Options?

The mic is a big part of any good headset, and pretty much critical for multiplayer games. Most headsets have either a boom mic, where the microphone is attached to an extendable arm, or an inline microphone that is built into the headset. Inline microphones give you a sleeker look and get in the way less. However, boom mics can help isolate your voice from background noise.

What are Some Helpful Gaming Headset Controls?

At the most basic level, it's useful to have volume control and a mute button on the headset for easy controls. For more customization, look for gaming headsets that have an app or on-screen settings where you can equalize volume, adjust bass settings, and further tweak your sound system.

How Do You Get a Headset Compatible with Your Setup?

If the headset is corded, make sure it has a connector that will fit into your computer or console. For cordless headsets, you need to check that it can work with your device. For example, if the headset is Bluetooth, you can only use it with a console or computer that picks up Bluetooth devices.

What are Popular Gaming Headset Brands?

Here are some big gaming headset brands you might want to check out:

• Turtle Beach: Popular among competitive gamers, these are known for being especially friendly to those who wear glasses.
• Sony: Sony headsets are especially useful if you like playing on PlayStation, but they are also popular with PC players due to their ease of use.
• Steelseries: These high-end headsets focus on high-fidelity audio and extra comfort.
• Corsair: Corsair is a popular budget pick that offers all the essentials without pricey frills.
