Deciding what headset to buy

Srijan Verma

I had been using the Logitech GPRO wired headset(the non x but still the newer one) for 2 years, couple of days ago it broke down beyond repair.  After scouring all my local shops are online shops, I am left with the following choices:

  1. Logitech g733 ( Overall had good experience with logitech over the year with mice and headphones and ghub has come a long way + wireless (the previous headset broke mainly because wire often got stuck in places and the headset fell down(i know )))
  2. Inzone h7: My experience with sony tws xm4 has been great but never purchased a headset from them  and rtings review says that they have very high latency even with dongle
  3. Beyerdynamic MMX150/100 rtings doesnt have a review on it and the only shop that is selling it was closed today but i plan to visit them tomorrow
  4. Razer BlackShark V2 HyperSpeed Wireless: My experience with razer hasnt been the best in the past with their stuff breaking using really cheap feeling plastic which is why i am on the edge of even considering but i thought might as well put in here considering that it is around the same price range.

I know there are many other non-gaming good headphones DT990 PRO but

  1. I wanted something with a Mic because I do travel every now and then and would prefer to not have to carry a extra mic around
  2. Closed back because i live in a very noisy area and open back headphones just wouldn't do it for me.

 

Please help me decide which one i should go with, I am open to suggestions in the similar price range.

(I know steelseries has some pretty good headsets but they are not sold here)

That is what I was thinking as-well but in one of the review videos shared by podkall they might be uncomfortable due to clamp pressure and his(reviewer's) ear touching the inside of the headphone nevertheless I will be trying them tomorrow at the shop.

If they are not comfortable could you give me a second choice?

I have the Tygr 300R which are essentially the same chassis but open back and without a mic. The pads are pretty thin but they are still comfortable. Aftermarket pads is recommended but can be quite expensive for example Dekoni pads.
