Gaming headset
Wired Gaming Headset
A 3.5mm or USB headset with an attached microphone. At the budget end, comfort over a long session matters far more than the driver specifications on the box.

7.6/ 10Good
- Strength: Cheapest way to get usable game audio plus a working mic
- Strength: 3.5mm works with a PC, console and phone without adapters
- Caveat: Budget headset mics are acceptable, not good
- Caveat: Clamp force and ear pad material decide whether you can wear it for hours
Information confidence: Low
Comfort is personal and cannot be judged from a spec sheet. We have not tested specific models.
