The 5 best gaming earbuds of 2022

Tech specs: Connectivity: 2.4GHz/Bluetooth | Platform: PC, Android, Switch, Xbox Series X/S, PS5 | Battery life: 33 hours | Microphone: Dual omni-directional | Noise canceling: No 

HyperX has finally introduced Bluetooth to their audio options with the Cloud Mix Buds, and they are some of the best wireless gaming earbuds you can buy. With Bluetooth, you can wirelessly connect to your PC, mobile device, and gaming console for more freedom of movement. But if you want less latency, the earbuds also come with a 2.4GHz USB-C adapter for a more reliable connection. The Cloud Mix Buds feature DTS Headphone: X audio for virtual, 3D audio so you can pinpoint footsteps, shots, and other audio cues to give you an extra edge in online and solo play. 

On a full charge, you’ll get about 10 hours of play, and with the charging case, you can get up to 33 hours of use. This means less recharging and more time racking up wins. I do wish that the Cloud Mix Buds had some sort of ANC technology to make it easier to focus on your game or chat, but the audio is good enough to drown out most background noise like chatter and fans or vents.
