Wireless headphones for gaming?

Devrij · 6 Feb 2022 at 09:31

I now have a good mic, so I've scrapped the idea of getting a gaming headset and am hoping I can get more bang for buck. The snag is that I still care about latency as its for gaming.

Does anyone have a recommendation for wireless cans for that purpose? And is wireless compression that bad?

I'm looking for something long term, so I am happy up to around £200, but it seems like either you end up paying the gamer tax for a gaming headset and a mic I don't need, or you end up with Bluetooth headphones aimed at phone connection and with latency that's way too high for gaming.

I was considering the sennheiser rs175 for that purpose

External BT Receiver & Transmitter, has the APTX LL (Low Latency), connect to the PC, then you can use any APTX LL BT headphones with your PC

Aha, now that's the ticket. Any recommendations on appropriate headphones?

Not used any myself for LL but search for aptx ll or aptx low latency in the usual place and you'll get some listed

Okay cool thanks
