The Corsair VIRTUOSO are decent for wireless gaming. These decently comfortable headphones have low non-Bluetooth latency. Their boom mic also does an excellent job of recording your voice, and it can separate it from moderate ambient noise, so your voice is heard clearly. They last over 18 hours continuously, which is great if you game for hours on end. Their companion software offers customization features like a graphic EQ and presets.

The wired and wireless connectivity options on the Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT are highly impressive alongside the ability to simultaneously connect both 2.5GHz and Bluetooth aptX HD. Beyond that, it’s an outstanding gaming headset that blends phenomenal audio quality with functionality for those willing to pay the high-price tag. Be mindful of the short battery life and 2.5GHz range though.

The Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT marries excellent sound quality with a stylish design and two types of wireless connectivity. It's expensive, though.
