Hi everyone!

I'm curious, how many of you use bluetooth/wireless headphones for gaming?
It does not necessarily mean gaming headphones so fashion and HiFi come into play also.
I'm asking all this because I see a lot of hate for bluetooth and wireless headphones.
What if someone do not want cables, want to enjoy freedom of movement but also appreciates quality sound? Is it even possible to get one for PC?

I use a Mixamp 5.8 wireless with my PS4, but all of my PC gaming - which makes up the majority - is with wired headphones. Bluetooth can have some pretty severe latency which can make gaming difficult or irritating, like when watching a movie with out of sync audio.

There are numerous offerings for wireless headphones with a PC, and the quality is going to vary. Most will involve a transmitter base of some sort. If you absolutely don't want cables, you'll have to be willing to compromise in some way. The compromises can be worth being free of wires.
