Wireless Gaming Headset Recommendation around $150-$200

Hey guys,

As per title, any recommendation for wireless headset? Was looking at cloud 3 wireless but a bit over my budget … thanks so much!

Update: ended up getting cloud 3 wireless. Price matched Amazon picked up from local
Jb. Had a gift card took out another $50.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions!

    You can get the hyperx cloud alpha wireless at pretty close to the $200 mark. At 300 hours of battery life I've been pretty impressed.

    • Is that better than cloud 3 wireless? I could go Amazon with $205 for it. What I mean is if alpha is no better than the 3, I would spend a bit more to get the latter.

      In saying that’s really looking to spend $150 if I can lol

      Seconding, I've been using mine for a few hours every week since last year - only charged once or twice, and that was at the 60-70% battery mark

      Even if the battery degrades to 10%, that'll (in theory) be 30 hours - which is the battery life of some brand new gaming headsets

    • where are you seeing $200 btw

      • Amazon has them for $250. If you're like me and want something that'll last a long time (the battery will probably outlast the rest of the headset), I'd try to stretch your budget and get the Alpha Wireless. I couldn't stomach paying $$$ on a headset that would only last 2 years before the battery died, so that's what I ended up choosing.

        Having said that, the Cloud 3 Wireless still has a respectable 120 hours battery life.

  • I'm looking at around that budget and after some research leaning towards SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5

    • Had a look at reddit, looks like more people leaning towards Cloud3

    • Best headset I've ever had by million miles was SteelSeries Siberia Elite Prism… The killer was they had a 'steel series only to usb' cable and they wouldnt supply another one after the original one broke.. so they ended up a 500 brick

      Be interested to see what you think of the Nova 5 as Im up for a new headset. My Rig 700 the foam ear pads fell to pieces

  • I'll just say to avoid turtlebeach. I won a pair of the 600 max (?) and they band snapped after several sporadic uses.

  • If you travel to Canberra at all for work or know someone that does I have a Cloud 3 wireless listed for $175 in the classifieds

    • im not unfortunately but thanks for the heads up!

    • They brand new and still available?

    Both the Cloud Alpha and Arctic’s Nova 5 suggested would be great options.

    I had wired cloud alphas previously and the sound and mic quality was excellent, and would be my pick.

  • Save a little more and get an audeze
