Introduction
Manufacturer: SteelSeries
Model: H Wireless
RRP: £200
Coming off the back of our recent Geemarc wireless headphone review and gaming headset review medley, today courtesy of SteelSeries we’ll be taking a look at the best of both worlds in the shape of the SteelSeries H Wireless.
The SteelSeries H wireless (H here on) is SteelSeries top offering as far as their gaming headsets are concerned. The obvious highlight on the surface of the product is the wireless capability which SteelSeries claim to have invested a lot in to maintain a flawless radio performance, but in addition to this, compatibility with the consoles and the ubiquitous Dolby Headphone support for emulating a surround sound experience. The H Wireless also comes with two batteries, one of which you can have on charge at all times through the control box, meaning the H Wireless on the whole is really quite lean and keeps the wireless aspect of the package to a maxim.
