Choose it if…
- You want game sound and voice chat in one headset.
- If real-time microphone monitoring is required, this model is not a confirmed fit: monitoring is listed without specifying which connection supports it.
- You want a wearable microphone rather than a separate desk stand or arm.
Before choosing this model
- HyperX doesn't list Xbox.
- A dongle that fits a console's USB port doesn't mean the console takes the mic: check which platforms its maker lists on this page.
- No stand or arm needed: the mic is on the headset.
- Also needed: a USB port for the wireless dongle.
