For budget-conscious gamers, the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 (Gen 3) Wireless is the best wireless gaming headset for PC. Don’t let their price fool you, though; these headphones have many gamer-centric features, including a great companion app and a flip-up-to-mute microphone. Their mic punches above their price point, performing just as well as the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless’. It’s great at separating your voice from any noise around you, so whoever you’re talking to won’t be distracted when your rackety roommates start playing tunes in the next room.
Their low-latency wireless dongle provides a great connection for gaming. You can also connect them to your phone via Bluetooth, but you can’t hear audio via the Bluetooth and dongle connections simultaneously like you can with the SteelSeries. Still, a simple press of the QuickSwitch button means it’s not too difficult to take a mid-game phone call—you’ll just have to settle for listening to music from your PC.
With a generally flat sound profile, they do a good job representing everything from rumbly explosions to clashing swords, although their default sound can sometimes be a little piercing. Happily, their companion app includes a graphic EQ, so you can tailor these to your preferences. They’re not as well-built as more expensive headphones like the SteelSeries or Audeze Maxwell Wireless, but they have a comfortable fit and an amazing 85-hour battery life.
