5 Best Wireless Earbuds for Budget Gamers (Expert Picks)

Customer Review: Honesty really good for the price, I was looking for 2.4ghz earbuds since I use glasses and paired with my headset it becomes annoying after extended periods of time, with these I no longer have this issue.The 20ms is barely noticeable, you might only notice it the very first time but you adapt to it almost instantly, in game and for any other activity you really won’t notice.The sound itself is great, the bass is the most noticable but I personally like that, up to you if you value it or not.Lastly the battery, I do not use them for bluetooth so I cannot say anything in that regard, but as for the 2.4ghz mode it lasts for around 3 to 4 hours per charge at a time which is really good honestly, unless you’re spending uninterrupted sessions for longer than that I wouldn’t call it necessarily a bad thing, all in all solid earbuds and I can easily recommend them on sale

Customer Review: If you are like me and have a phone with terrible Bluetooth than earbuds like this are a godsend. I’ve exclusively only used the dongle connected to my phone, because it allegedly supports LC3, where my phone Bluetooth only really supports up to AAC consistently.I’m honestly angry at how good these sound compared to more expensive earbuds mainly due to the issue above. I can’t speak for the Bluetooth quality, but using the dongle: They could use a little more bass, though adequate, the treble and mids are pretty decent. They could also be a little louder, but I like to damage my hearing so it’s probably fine for most people.They don’t fit the best, I have small ears and even with the smallest wingtips they hurt my ears. I recommend changing the ear tips, because the stock ones have tiny holes that restrict the sound quality.The case is massive and heavy, but that’s because it has a huge battery and can charge other devices with its built in USB a port. The earbuds do last a very long time even at full volume, at least with the dongle. Probably due to the LC3 codecs because it specializes in low power and latency, which these earbuds have great latency.All in all on sale, these are great earbuds. I know there might be some other “better” options, but these are cheaper and the dongle fits better with my phone case.

Customer Review: These SteelSeries Arctis GameBuds have been a fantastic addition to my gaming setup! The quick-switch 2.4GHz + Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity makes it super easy to jump between Xbox, PC, PS5, Switch, and mobile without any hassle, I just switch modes and continue playing. The pairing process was quick and seamless every time.The active noise cancelling is surprisingly effective for earbuds and really helps when I’m trying to focus in noisy environments. The sound quality is clear and balanced with good depth for both games and music. I also appreciate the mobile app support because it lets me fine-tune EQ settings and customize controls to my liking.The battery life is excellent, I’m getting close to the advertised 40 hours with the Qi wireless charging case, which is super convenient. The case itself feels sturdy and life on the go is much easier because I can top up the battery without cords if I need to.I also love that they’re water resistant (IP55) perfect for workouts or rainy days, and they’ve held up great so far. Comfort is also top-notch; they stay in well during longer gaming sessions and the fit feels secure without being tight.Overall, these are high-quality gaming earbuds that combine excellent connectivity, great sound, long battery life, and convenience. Highly recommend for anyone who games across multiple platforms or just wants a reliable all-around set of earbuds.

Customer Review: I have Bought two pairs of these now. The Xbox version, and the white PlayStation version. Both broke shortly after buying. One side goes out, or other side stars ringing with static. There is no warranty through Steelserise. Can’t be live in saying this. But if you buy the pulse earbuds from Sony work the best for pc and PlayStation. Haven’t found any ear buds yet that works as good.

Customer Review: I usually don’t write reviews but I needed too for this item. I purchased this as a in ear solution for my motorcycle helmet. It worked great with me Sena 10s. It’s an older bluetooth communicator for my helmet and these ear buds extended the life of it. Fit well within my Simpsons Modular helmet. Pro Tip you have to remove the helmet speakers to allow room for the ear buds. I just went on a 2k miles trip and not only did I hear my group clearly at 80mph, it provided enough hearing protection from the exhaust and road noise but enough passive sounds so it’s not dangerous… Great Value and Product!

Customer Review: work amazing and very light and comfortable and the audio is super good

Customer Review: I was looking for some computer headphones to use on teams calls that wouldn’t go over my ear but connected via USB not Bluetooth. These have worked well for the week that I have had them. You can swap between the USB input and Bluetooth my pressing and holding on either earbud, which is great to swap to a phone call without having to do anything but press the earbud. Sound quality and microphone quality seem great. I’ve talked for multiple hours on one earbud and battery life is more than sufficient. I have the case sitting in my desk and it has worked as I hope so far. Great earbuds with good design and sound.

Customer Review: Honestly better than I thought they would be. You can use them with anything, and the dual modes are nice but cannot be used simultaneously. Sounds great, have no complaints honestly. Compared to the 100 dollar sets they are on par imo. They haven’t died on me yet through hours of gaming sessions. Solid for the price

Customer Review: FIRST YOU SHOULD KNOW: I got these for casual gaming on my ROG Ally and I love them.LATENCY: with gaming mode is hardly noticeable, I mean I can’t even tell. It’s like Ray tracing. If I go looking for it I’ll find the latency, if I’m just casually gaming I don’t notice it. I DO NOT RECCOMMEND these if you intend to play competitively, obviously you want all wired for competition.QUALITY: Far as I can tell, quality is awesome, bass is solid. I’ve always noticed Asus ROG puts some good sound quality in their devices (I’ve owned the zephyrus g14 before, those speakers and the Ally speakers are noticeably better than competitions)BATTERY LIFE: as I’ve stated I’m casually gaming. Longest session I had was a bit over an hour and the battery life went from 80% to 60% ishHANDLING: Using those touch sensors is no big deal. My ONLY COMPLAINT is the voice that says what mode you’re in? It sounds like they recorded it in a kitchen with an iphone mic. ALSO CHANGING EARBUD SIZES IS AN ABSOLUTE PAINBUTthey are firm when they’re finally on.ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLING: Mine also came with a defect, ANC doesn’t work on the left earbud, just makes a weird hissing noise. Nothing I’ve thought of to try has fixed the issue, I’m returning these for another. I’ll update for ANC when I get the new set.UPDATE: The ANC works well, it’s not Bose quality but it helps eliminate distracting noise, and I’m not sure why there’s low and high ANC? I’m only going to use high ANC, ambient, or off, so switching from one to another I’ll encounter “Low noise cancelling” roll my eyes and switch again. The ambient mode is nice too for when I go to the store wanting to listen to punk rock or play games on break at work. I’ll add another star since the new set works as intended.SO: I love it! At most I can get a few hours of solid gaming with no wires attached and I love that. The only other defect I find is when I played Halo MCC. Best way I can describe it is it goes from being normal to big echo-y room and crap quality. Doesn’t happen everytime but sometimes.Hopefully the new ones coming in won’t be as defected.UPDATE: The speed nova does NOT have a slot to hold the 2.4ghz dongle like the delta S does, personally a deal breaker for me, I’d lose that thing in a week’

Customer Review: I’m digging these ROG Cetra true wireless gaming earbuds. They are comfortable in the ears, come with multiple ear piece sizes, connect to Bluetooth without issue, and have awesome sound. The battery seems like it last through a good gaming session. The earbuds connect flawlessly with the Armoury Crate app, and once some EQ tweaking was performed, the sound is clear and amazing!I have been using these with my new Xbox ROG Ally X and they have been working great on the system. There is a little lag, but it’s minimal in my experiences. Definitely a quality headset and not too expensive.
