Hi all,

Looking to buy a new headset for use on my PS3 for voice chat once GTA5 comes out.  Here is what I am after:

 

  • A full headset, not earphone style ( I have a one ear bluetooth headset and I hate it).
  • Decent mic and clarity
  • Wireless (I have a wired one already which is adequate, but the cable is annoying)
  • Budget of roughly $100
I have a pretty decent Logitech wired headset that I could use, so if the quality is not going to be there then there is no point. I use this on my PC, so the new one only needs to do PS3.

Any suggestions/recommendations/things to look out for?

Thing is most are quite expensive or wired, which I don't want. And I don't know if the cheaper bluetooth ones are worth it.

I bought the following not that long ago. Am pretty pleased with them, also have the option to be wired.
