Best Gaming Headsets of 2020

February 14, 2020 Posted by Jane Smith Editorial No Comments

A gaming headset is not there just for giving you a good sound quality. A good gaming headset adds life to your games by providing high-quality immersive experiences. No matter what platform you are playing on, having the perfect gaming headset is a must if you want to truly enjoy your games.

Deciding on the perfect gaming headset can be a tiring task, considering that price and comfort aren’t the only factors you need to worry about. You have to take into account a lot of other factors as well such as surround sound, noise cancellation, wired/wireless etc.

To help you make an informed decision with ease, we have come up with a list of some of the best gaming headsets out there that excel in almost all aspects. So, without further ado, let us get down to checking some of them out:

Razer Kraken Tournament Edition

No matter what platform you are playing your favorite game on, be it an Xbox, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile or a Mac, the Razer Kraken Tournament Edition is perfect for all occasions. It is the ultimate option if you are looking for value for money.

With a classy acoustic design, this specific headset is a perfect all-rounder. It comes with a 1.3m long wire and weighs only 12.6oz. If you are looking for the perfect gaming headset under $100, then this is definitely a solid contender.

Since it is a wired headset, you will always have solid sound quality, and smooth gaming experience. With this headset, you can hear even the slightest gunfire sound at a distance without any trouble.

Sennheiser GSP 370

Next up on our list is the best wireless gaming headset by Sennheiser. The trouble with most wireless headphones is poor battery life, but this beauty takes care of this issue for you. It has a phenomenal battery life, allowing you long hours of uninterrupted gaming.

The GSP 370 comes with an acoustic design with a semi-open back and around-the-ear covering. The charging cable that comes with this headset is thankfully 1.5m long so that you have enough wire in case you have to use them while they are charging.

The only drawback we could find with this headset is that it is only compatible with PC, PS4, and Mac, so if you are gaming on any other platform, you might have to opt for another headset.

HyperX Cloud Revolver S

This gaming headset might seem a bit too expensive, but when you look at its features a bit more carefully, you will realize its worth. The HyperX Cloud Revolver S comes with Dolby 7.1-channel surround sound, offering the crispiest sound quality in the market.

Also, you can wear this headset all day without feeling uncomfortable as it has the comfiest ear covers you might come across. The things that bothered us about the headset are mic placement and that the cable is too long, which can create quite a hassle at times.

SteelSeries Arctis Pro

Hardcore gamers are probably quite familiar with SteelSeries products. Arctis Pro is no exception either. In addition to offering high-quality immersive surround sound during all your favorite games, it also gives a great experience while listening to music with the help of the DAC (digital to audio converter) included in it.

The device also features 40mm drivers, a retractable microphone, and flawless RGB lighting. So, if you are willing to empty your pockets, then do go for this one as it is a purchase you will never regret.

Corsair HS50

Buying a $50 headphone often means compromising on performance and surviving with the bare minimum. Well, with the Corsair HS50, this isn’t the case. This easy-on-the-pocket gaming headset is the best headset for beginners.

Featuring multi-platform compatibility, this simple headset offers great surround sound. Furthermore, the headset’s build quality is flawless, something that you get for double the price with other brands.

Astro A50

Astro A50 seems like a headset straight from the future. Astro A50 is a wireless gaming headset that is compatible with a number of platforms like Xbox One, PS4, PC and PS3, only to name a few.

It offers exceptional Dolby surround sound and premium quality comfort to its users. In addition to all this, it comes with a beautiful docking station so you can place your headsets with style.

Build of the headset is all black, making it one classy headset. So, if you are willing to make a huge dent in your pocket, then this headset is not a bad option at all.

SteelSeries Arctis 9X

Last but definitely not the least on this list is yet another beauty from SteelSeries. The Arctis 9X is a phenomenal wireless headset that is especially perfect for Xbox gamers. The wireless connectivity may be exclusive for Xbox users, but other features on this headset are no joke either.

It comes with a 1.3m long wire and 40mm drivers, plus it only weighs 13oz, making it a light-weighted headset for comfortable gaming. Battery life on this headset ensures uninterrupted long gaming hours without the need for frequent recharging.

If you are not in the mood for a wireless headset, you can also use it with a 3.5mm connection that comes with it. Whether you want a headset especially for Xbox or for any other platform, this one is definitely worth checking out.

Sum Up

There are numerous things to consider for a smoot gaming experience. You need high-speed internet providers like Charter Spectrum, gaming mice from the likes of Razer, SteelSeries, Logitech, graphic cards, and keyboards. A perfect headset only makes the entire experience worthwhile. So, do not neglect the importance of a quality gaming headset. Play your games the way they are meant to be.
