Best Xbox Gaming Headsets Under $100 in 2021

The Razer Blackshark V2 is a new frontrunner in the wireless headset space, with an esports-oriented design and truly incredible sound treatment. This headset also delivers some of the best mic quality around. The USB DAC sadly only works on PC, but even as a wired headset, this is a true leader in the space and price range.

The Turtle Beach Elite Atlas feels premium in every sense of the word, with truly impressive audio tuning and quality, exceptional materials and construction, and supreme comfort. It's missing some of the higher-end features like 7.1 surround, and voice monitoring, but I am still a little stunned that this headset is as cheap as it is.

Muscling into the space is the Xbox Wireless Headset from Microsoft, taking up the value proposition for wireless headsets with ease. This Bluetooth-capable headset can mix sound from your Xbox and a connected phone, PC, or tablet seamlessly, letting you take meetings and calls without interrupting your game. The value on offer here is crazy, and well-worth a look.

Honestly, the battle between the Hyper X Cloud II and the Turtle Beach Elite Atlas effectively comes down to aesthetics. Both headsets sport great sound, great construction, and excellent comfort, all with a similar price point. The Cloud II is an excellent piece of kit that won't disappoint.

If red isn't your bag, consider the legendary HyperX CloudX, one of the best-selling Xbox headsets of all time. This headset is renowned for its incredible build quality, lightweight construction, crisp, rich audio, and high-satisfaction rates. Generally, when I want to recommend a headset for Xbox that I know literally everybody will like, I recommend the CloudX.

The SteelSeries Artcis 1 might not have the greatest build quality or sound, but it ticks all the boxes for those looking for a no-nonsense wired sound solution for their console.

As far as cheaper alternatives go, the LucidSound LS10X is an excellent choice for those not wanting to break the bank. With rock-solid construction, decent audio, and a surprisingly capable microphone, the LS20 is one headset that won't disappoint in the cheaper price bracket.

This is another option in the higher-end range, with a unique dual-chamber configuration for truly sensational audio. The HyperX Cloud Alpha comes with big red aesthetics, which may be your bag too (oh, and the Cloud Alpha also comes with a carrying bag, sweet.)

The Astro A10 is a cheap and cheerful alternative to the more expensive wireless A20, boasting some great gaming features like a flip-to-mute microphone and decent sound quality. Many people prefer Astro for its soft over-ear cups and rich sound tuning, and the A10 delivers these signature features on a budget.
