Expert reviews and analysis of the best gaming headsets products
The second-generation Arctis Nova 7 is light enough to forget you are wearing it, with spatial audio that gives a real competitive edge and unusually deep Sonar software. The retractable boom microphone is the weak point, and only sounds good with the software installed.
The Sony INZONE H9 is a do-everything wireless PC/PS5 gaming headset with active noise cancellation, personalised spatial audio and dual RF-plus-Bluetooth connectivity — good at everything, exceptional at nothing, with coloured sound that trails its premium positioning.
The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is a comfortable, superbly finished gaming headset whose headline is a gargantuan battery — over 100 hours in testing — paired with clear, balanced sound and an excellent microphone. No wired mode and Windows-only software, though.
The Corsair HS80 RGB Wireless has a microphone rated among the best in its class, but our two approved sources disagree sharply about its sound and even its weight. Both agree the bass is recessed and the wireless range disappoints. UK availability checked 2 August 2026.
The Logitech G Pro X Wireless Lightspeed is a wireless take on the excellent wired Pro X: solid, comfortable, with rock-stable Lightspeed connectivity, long battery life and convincing DTS surround — though it is PC-only and its microphone falls short of the wired version.
The ASUS ROG Delta S Wireless is a very good wireless gaming headset with versatile 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth connectivity, long battery life and clever dual beamforming mics — let down by the lack of a wired mode, a slightly bass-light default tuning and small earcups.
