The Xbox Wireless Headset presents considerable value for Xbox gamers, which is why it’s our Best Value pick, but of course it isn’t perfect. This headset is also fitted with a good amount of band and cup padding, making it comfortable to wear through numerous rounds of Big Team Battle in Halo Infinite. It also makes for a very unique headset design It’s only on the Xbox Wireless Headset you’ll get perfectly circular ear cups.
In the case of the Xbox Wireless Headset, this makes for an intuitive and easy way to adjust volume (twist the left cup) and game/chat balance (twist the right cup). The design here is also wholly unique to Microsoft, borrowing the Surface Dial first showcased on the Microsoft Surface headphones, which allows the user to twist the left and right ear cups to make adjustments.

This official wireless headset is manufactured by Microsoft (you know, the company that makes Xbox consoles), meaning it integrates seamlessly with Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles, allowing users a high degree of control and customizability right from the Xbox Accessories menu. The Xbox Wireless Headset is easily the most popular Xbox headset around right now-and for good reason. If you’re looking for a stellar Xbox headset that double-dips as a great pair of headphones, this is the headset to buy. The Penrose X is our Best Overall pick because it delivers such stellar audio quality, rivaling and even surpassing certain name brand headphones.
Gamers who prefer to leap into the fray with friends will be glad to know that the Penrose X’s microphone is a workmanlike inclusion it isn’t on equal footing with the audio quality, but it’s good enough for your Xbox Live buddies. If you don’t mind a slight neck workout while you adjust to the weight, the Penrose X is otherwise amply comfortable. The Penrose X is kitted out with durable, high-quality materials that keep it comfortable through long sessions, though its magnetic enhancements do make it heavier than average at 320 grams. But cutting-edge audio isn’t the only thing you’re paying for, either. If you’re thinking that the Penrose X is a bit on the expensive side, we don’t blame you-it’s two or three times the price of most of the headsets on this list.

And considering this headset’s detachable microphone, Bluetooth 5.0 compatibility, 3.5mm input, and (fairly) understated design, it’d be extremely easy to use the Penrose X as headphones around your house or during a commute as well as while you’re gaming. These are one of those rare gaming headsets that can easily double as high-end headphones, making them an especially good pick for music lovers. Really, you don’t even need to understand how planar magnetic headphones work (it involves magnets) to appreciate the quality audio here. And just as we expected, the Penrose X-designed specifically for Xbox consoles-is another triumph by way of magnets. We’ve loved Audeze’s planar magnetic headphones for years, so when we heard the company was launching planar magnetic gaming headsets, we were, well, all ears.
