Come and discover together what are the main characteristics that you should consider when buying them and which are the most important, based on the use you want to make.

1. Sound quality

The heart of every headset, gaming or not, is its sound quality. 

Frequency response 

This feature shows the range of sounds the headset can reproduce. The most common range is that of human hearing, namely 20 - 20000 Hz.

Sensitivity

The sensitivity of headsets is measured in db. The higher the headset sensitivity, the louder it will sound at a given source volume. In general, headsets with a value of 90db or higher are considered a good choice.

Drivers 

Drivers are essentially the speakers inside the headset and are the main element that affects sound quality. The larger they are, the better the quality and the more distinct the details of each sound. In general, a driver of 40mm and above is a good choice!

2. Comfort and fit

Since a gaming session can last for hours, comfort is very important. Pay attention to its build quality and adjustable size. In addition, gaming headsets are divided into 3 main types: 

Over Ear

With large ear cups that fit around the ear and better isolate external noise.

In Ear

Discreet headsets, but they need frequent readjustment. 

On Ear

With small ear cups that fit on the ear and do not completely isolate external noise.

3. Microphone features and quality

Detachable microphone: The microphone detaches from the headset, offering safer transport of the headset as well as use for audio only. 

Mute button: Features a microphone mute function with a simple movement, offering privacy as well as noise reduction in group chats. 

Foldable: The microphone folds into the body of the headset when you do not want to use it.

Playing with other people? Then choose a gaming headset with top-quality microphone as well. Prefer one with a microphone that cancels external noise. Voice clarity will ensure seamless communication & collaboration with your teammates.

4. Connectivity

Wired headsets offer reliable, high-quality sound, since you can be more certain there will be no audio delay. Depending on what suits you better, there are headsets with a 3.5mm jack or USB.

Wireless ones, on the other hand, provide greater freedom of movement, but you must always remember to charge them. You can find wireless models with bluetooth connectivity.

5. Surround sound 

For an enhanced gaming experience, look for headsets with surround sound technology, which can provide an immersive sense of depth and full sound.

6. Battery life (wireless headsets)

If you have decided to get a wireless gaming headset, check the battery life. Do you want to run out of battery in the middle of a battle? Probably not. So make the right choice!
