My 10-year-old headset is falling apart, so I've found the five best Cyber Monday gaming headset deals still available
It's time for a new headset that doesn't keep cutting out.
As usual, I've left most of my deal hunting until the last possible moment. But if, like me, you're also trying to cash in on the last few sales floating around, then don't worry; I've got you covered with the best of the best Cyber Monday gaming headset deals.
I've had my Turtle Beach Recon 50X gaming headset since I was 15 and boy has it aged poorly. The ear pads are in tatters, and every time I use them more fabric falls off. I should have thrown them out ages ago, but I hate change so I've been using money as an excuse not to replace them. But after browsing these Cyber Monday gaming headset deals it looks like I can't use that excuse anymore.

The HyperX Cloud Alpha, which sits at the top spot in our best gaming headsets list, is still only $60 from its usual $100 price tag. It may not have a mic that mutes automatically when you flip it, but it makes up for a lack of fancy trappings with its great sound quality and comfortable fit.
But if you're still looking for something a little cheaper, then don't worry. I've also included some great budget options. There's the Corsair HS65, which is still just $40, down from $70. This headset has a great mic, is pretty comfortable, and is the closest I got to replacing old faithful (my dying Turtle Beach headset).
