Top 10 Things to Consider before purchasing a Gaming Headset
Let’s get started with number 10:
#10 – Durability – headbands that break after a few months can put a damper on things. The last thing any gamer wants is their headset breaking down in the middle of an intense firefight because of cheap construction materials or negligence.
Make sure the headset is constructed of quality materials. Most headsets are made of plastic nowadays but some brands use metal or other stronger materials to make them more durable and resistant to wear and tear for everyday use.

#5 – Microphone Quality – if you are new to any online game out there, I’m sure one of the first things you heard was the incessant use of headsets which makes it harder for others to hear them. If that is your case then this feature will be important to consider as well!
Make sure that your game’s sound quality with the microphone is great so people can hear you loud and clear otherwise what’s the point? It will also help reduce background noise if needed.
You don’t want a cheap piece of garbage mic on your gaming headset so look at different models and brands before making a decision. Also check reviews about how clear the sound is on them (i.e., Blue Yeti vs. Blue Snowball to compare them).

Make sure that your mic is long enough if possible or adjustable so it will not break easily from frequent use and make sure the sound is good too before making any purchases.
Some microphones can be detached from the headset completely which is a major plus for some gamers especially if you don’t need it at all times. Those types of headsets tend to be more expensive but they are worth a look into if need a microphone only sometimes because you still get all the benefits of a wireless model without having to pay an extra $40-50.

#1 – Price Point – this may not be the most important factor but it should certainly be considered. I know that you hear me say many times, “if you can’t afford something then don’t buy it!” This is no different here.
Do not go out and buy a $100+ headset if all you are using it for is to play video games online or watch Netflix on your computer or TV. Those types of headsets are great but each person has their budget so make sure to look at different price points before making any final decisions.
