So my old headset finally fell apart completely. I've been trying to find a fitting replacement, but man is it hard... so here's hoping I can get some guidance here.

I'm looking for a comfortable wireless headset with decent reach and mic. That's it. No need for ANC. Or at least the option to turn it off. Don't need RGB or fancy designs. It seems impossible to find a headset that fits the description without being subpar quality...

Any suggestions are appreciated!

I'm in love with my SteelSeries Arctis 7. It wasn't as expensive when I got it years ago. But it's still the only sub 200€ headset that I know, that isn't made entirely out of crappy plastic, and actually survives more than 3 months (looking a you Logitech...). Sound quality is good for a gaming headset, while it will not be enough for an audiophile. Wireless quality is very solid as well. The software is useless bloatware but you don't really need it. The really cool part is the elastic band on top. Really adapts to your head and feels super comfortable.

I second this, I have a SteelSeries Arctis 7x (the one with the dongle to make it work for Xbox or PC), and I have no complaints about it.
