Budget Gaming Headsets

I have been through several gaming headsets for the PS5. I have finally landed on a pair that not only look and sound sleek, but do EXACTLY what I need. The digital AI noise cancellation works perfectly when eliminating background noise. But not only that, these cans have some amazing sound pumping through these magnetic drivers. No wonder Sony opted to buy Audeze. Connection to PS5 and PC is easy with the included usb-c adapter. Just make sure to pick the right source with the flick of a switch. You can update firmware and download custom EQs from the Audeze site, as well. Getting used to not using an app to make changes is a bit of a drag, but it’s worth it in the end to not have it. I have used ‘em all: Razer, SteelSeries, and Turtle Beach. Each have their own strengths but too many weaknesses. The Audeze Maxwell are just the perfect headset to add to your collection.

I Bought because they came up under a search for wireless gaming headsets, sadly I had to return them because they were both of the sort, But Harman representative went above and beyond to help me find the Quantum 600 which meet all the criteria I was looking for.

This is by far one of the best gaming headsets on the market. They are super comfortable for long hours of gameplay and excellent sound quality. I’ve been averaging 5-6 hr of gameplay without any sort of discomfort.

Most gaming headsets are too heavy for me and they hurt my ears so I wanted an on ear headset that was wireless and not too heavy. I am really happy with this headset my head and neck don't hurt after playing for several hours in a row and the noise cancelling helps me to hear my husband better through the sounds of the game. These are amazing and I would encourage anyone like me who gets head and neck aches from normal bulky gaming headsets to give these a shot.

I usually don't buy gaming headsets, as the features are usually not that apealing to me. But I wanted at least one pair of wireless headphones, and figured these would be a good choice. A good choice they certainly were. They sound incredible and the build quality is insane. They are a bit heavy on your head, but I don't have any issues wearing them for a couple hour gaming session. I can't speak for the quality of the mic as I use a seperate USB mic, but it's certainly a nice to have if I need to take a call. I plan on using these when I work from home, so the Bluetooth and dongle versatility will come in handy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I seen reports of JBL coming out with a line up of headsets at CES. I was extremely interested in seeing what JBL can bring to the audio gaming world. I love JBL’s sound signature, and I am so happy that they brought that signature to their Quantum line up of gaming headsets. At an affordable price JBL is giving you a lot with Quantum 400’s. The headphones feel very solid. They are plasticky but do not feel cheap. They are amazingly comfortable! I was able to wear them for long periods of time with only needing to take them off every so often. The braided USB type C was is a big thumbs up. The ear cups swivel 180 degrees and sit well around your shoulders when you take them off for a break in between matches. The mic I was told by other players online said they heard my voice good with little background noise. The microphone mutes when flipped up, which is very convenient. The audio sound quality is amazing. The directional audio is on point. Picking up other players on the map is the best I heard in a set of headphones. I have only used these on PC, so I cannot say how they sound on console. I can say the software is straight forward. Through the desktop app you have access to the spatial sound, microphone settings, the RGB lighting, and equalizer. You can also update the software through the desktop app. You can change lighting on the JBL emblem on the side of the ear cups. Which is cool if that is what you are into. Most importantly, you have DTS 2.0 and JBL Quantum Surround to choose from in the spatial audio. I am not too much into JBL’s Quantum Surround, but the DTS 2.0 just make these kick. The sound is tight in all gaming environments. Playing Red Dead 2 I could close my eyes and hear what was going on the world in the game. If you are looking for a good priced gaming headset that have a lot of big features. Pick these up!

Great budget cpu for gaming more than enough processing power and low watt consumption

I am learning to enjoy my ASUS 15.6 Vivobook. It is a replacement for my nearly 14 year old laptop that has seen better days. I am on a limited budget, but I didn't want mediocre specs that would be outdated in 6 months. I do mainly internet browsing, some productivity work (word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, etc.), some low intensity gaming, and on occasion some video editing for my socials. Bottom line - You should probably get one while qtys and pricing are good. Pros - It has the specs I wanted (i9 CPU, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) at a great price. More than enough computing power for gaming, casual internet browsing, and the occasional homework/essay. It included FREE 2-Day Shipping - I am on the West Coast. Screen colors are vibrant, keyboard is keyboard-y with backlit keys. The laptop itself is not the lightest out there, but is hardly the boat anchor ROG ASUS I still own that is on its last legs. It's offered thru a reputable dealer. Cons (ish) - Only 1920x1080 resolution and no touchscreen. I haven't really encountered any other negatives so far. It's been a while since I purchased MY own laptop. To be transparent, I have helped recommend and even purchased several laptops over the years for my family and friends. My previous-current laptop is a still-running ASUS G51J (i7 CPU 1st Gen, 6GB RAM, 500GB 2.5 HDD) - battery doesn't charge, but still works plugged in. I purchased it from B&H also circa 2010. Being a frugal tinkerer myself, but wanting the best value for my budget, I researched and compared several buying sources including big box stores, national (U.S.) retail chains and even Amazon, but I still chose B&H. Even though I am on the West Coast, I still found value in the products they offer as well as the service and buying experience. Did I mention FREE 2-Day shipping from the East Coast (NY). Hope this review helps.

When this came out it wasn't the greatest CPU especially at an MSRP of about $80-$90 when it was released. But for $60 this makes a great budget gaming CPU capable of playing even today's PC titles. Highly recommend this CPU for a budget gaming PC build.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this monitor on sale to replace a 27in gaming monitor cause I needed more desktop to multitask and wanted a bigger gaming monitor all in one. This fits the requirements and within my budget. There are no dead pixels that I can see and the mini leds are awesome. I have noticed some light bleed, but only on dark blank screens like season 8 GoT, but are not noticed during game play. The gaming overlay can be annoying when you are just waking it up, but doesn't come up unless you want it to. The connections are plenty to have this as a monitor, a console screen, and a smart TV. Try not to have this in the same room with another Samsung tv, as it will wake and or turn on or off with the other remotes. Solid smart monitor and it came with cables! Want to get another one, but the wife won't let me get a bigger desk, until we get a bigger house...haha! If you are a high end gamer, you might not like it, but check out the more in depth reviews to make a decision. Everyone else on a gaming budget, catch this monitor on sale, you won't regret it.
