THE SINGLE WORST thing about wireless headsets is the laziness they promote. They’re all well and good while you’re playing, not having to bother with wires or inputs way over there somewhere, but when they run out of battery you have to stand up and everything. It’s awful. The Steel Series H Wireless deals with this problem effectively, by giving you two swappable 20-hour battery packs – meaning you can vegetate on your sofa, uninterrupted, for longer. The transmitter that ships with the headset an incredibly slick, convenient bit of kit allows you to access the H’s multiple audio profiles, and added bonus even shows you the remaining charge in your headset, something we feel other manufacturers seem to underestimate the usefulness of.
Typically, wireless headsets lose a sound quality due to how their transmitters work, but the H doesn’t seem to suffer too badly from the wireless trade-off. At low volumes, the 7.1 virtual surround can get muddy, and if you’re using the headset for music, the sound won’t be as sharp as dedicated hi-fi headphones. Overall the H is a versatile, efficient bit of kit that holds an incredible charge, works at a range of 40 feet and, most importantly, is future-proof; compatible with the PS4, Xbox One (although it won’t process game chat yet) and anything with an optical port. The H hits a higher price point than other wireless sets available on the market, but if you’re a marathon gamer or if you just like headsets that work, no fuss then they’re definitely a worthy investment.
