I got Sennheiser PC38X during black friday sales(in 2021), works great so far and the mic is pretty clear.

Pros:

• the audio deliver is really cool, if you have only used earbud or close cover you might like it. (really immersive feeling, compare to closed one you feel more like in a big room)
• it's tradition jack so it works with anything with 3.5mm jack. (switch, PS4/5 controllers, PC, speakers with the jack output)
• it's pretty durable and nothing really flakes off after 1.5 years of use. (it has clothed ear pad so unlike synthetic leather that Sony used which flakes after like 2 years.
• I like the on cup dial to tweak volume on the fly.

Cons:

• the cable come with it can be a bit of hassle to deal with, it's some weird hard braided cable so there if you can't tolerate that you might have to buy replacement from somewhere else
• since it's open back, if you listen to anything loud it would leak outside, not recommended for travel/commute. (That means if I play games I have to close door otherwise my son can hear that I am playing, dang young man's sharp ears.)
• the tension of the clamp is really strong in the beginning, it would require some breakin time. I just basically put the headset on the box it comes with + a book. Took about 1~2 months to finally get somewhere I feel comfortable with longer time of use. (usually 1~2 hours of game time after my son go sleep.)
