Two of the best wireless gaming headsets are on sale, and I'm truly torn on which one I want
HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless | 15 — 21,000Hz | Wireless | 300hr battery | $199.99$169 at Amazon (save $30.99)
There are specific things you want from a wireless headset: comfort, great audio, and a long battery life. The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is the best wireless gaming headset around because it combines all of those key elements.

Razer BlackShark V2 Pro (Gen1) | 12 — 28,000Hz | Wireless | 24-hour battery | $179.99$119.99 at Amazon (save $60)
