We’re big proponents of gaming headsets. They create a private, immersive listening experience that can make games more engrossing. Some games even encourage you to wear one to get the best audio experience. Gaming headsets are integral to the online multiplayer experience, not just for chatting with friends, but because it’s often easier to pinpoint audio cues while wearing one. While some may prefer the immediacy and simplicity of wired headsets, the freedom afforded by wireless headsets is unmatched. And thanks to low-latency 2.4GHz connections and modern Bluetooth technology, issues that plagued wireless headsets in the early gaming headset boom, like playback delay or lower audio quality, are virtually unheard of if you buy from a decent brand. Wireless headsets can sound as good and perform as reliably as their wired counterparts.
For anyone out there looking for a new gaming headset, we’ve put together this list of the best wireless gaming headsets you can buy in 2024. If you’ve read any of our other headset roundups, you won’t be surprised to see the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 in the top slot as the best wireless gaming headset in 2024. We simply haven’t found any competitors that can match its blend of high quality audio, comfort, and price. That said, it’s not our only recommendation. Some users will want something more affordable, while others may be able to splurge on higher-end models that offer even more features. So, we’ve made sure to include picks from a variety of price points, features, and styles–including a couple of wireless earbud options, led by Sony’s Inzone Buds.
