#Headsets

2026-01-15

Funny how some of the tracks I listen to sound better on my wireless buds, while some are better experienced with my wired . I literally find myself listening to different because of the sound difference. And I probably wouldn't enjoy my music at all with my old dusty on-ear or the helmet-mounted active hearing protection I have.

I have four (4) in total, thanks for asking.

Ich habe dieses Jahr ungefähr 700 Euro für #Headsets ausgegeben. Angefangen hat alles mit der Idee, dass ein gutes #Bluetooth-Headset doch wohl für hochwertige #Meetings unter #Linux, #Windows, #Android, #Teams und Co. reichen müsste – Spoiler: tat es nicht. Das #Bose-Headset ist am Handy großartig, am Laptop aber leider ziemlich unbrauchbar.

Also kam fürs #Homeoffice ein #DECT-Headset von #Yealink dazu. Mit Basisstation, stabil, zuverlässig – eigentlich genau das, was ich gesucht habe. Blöd nur: Eine Basisstation heißt auch, dass man fürs #Büro ein zweites braucht. Also habe ich jetzt zwei davon. Die hat die Firma bezahlt. Zweimal das gleiche, jeweils mit ANC und Mikrophonen die Hintergrundgeräusche aktiv rausfiltern.

Und weil ich schon lange ein #OpenEar-Headset fürs Spazierengehen und #Fahrradfahren wollte, ist danach noch ein #Shokz dazugekommen.

Fazit: Jetzt bin ich zufrieden. Und ich habe gelernt, dass man am PC offenbar wirklich ein dediziertes #Headset nur dafür braucht – alles andere ist Kompromiss. 😉🎧

#Meta may reduce its #metaversebudget by up to 30% next year, impacting the #Quest #headsets and #HorizonWorlds. The company is shifting focus and investment towards #AI, particularly #AIglasses and #AIwearables, due to lower-than-expected competition. theverge.com/news/838186/meta- #Metaverse #VirtualWorlds #XR #VR #MR #AR #BeyondPictures

CNET's audio expert just dropped their top picks for WFH headsets in 2025. Apparently, finding a headset that doesn't make you sound like you're broadcasting from a tin can is still a challenge.

What's your go-to gear for crystal-clear calls (or just surviving another Zoom meeting)?

PC Gamer: A YouTuber has built his own VR headset for a little over $150 and made the whole project open source, so I might just give it a go. “For many, virtual reality hardware is still an expensive niche to get into. Even our top budget pick in our best VR headset guide, the Meta Quest 3S, can still set you back nearly $300. Well, a YouTuber has rocked up with a homemade headset project […]

#Meta is launching #HorizonTV, a #streaming hub for #Quest #headsets, providing access to apps like Prime Video, Peacock, Twitch, Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN. The hub will feature #3Dmovie experiences from Universal Pictures and Blumhouse, and support #DolbyAtmos surround sound, with #DolbyVision coming later. theverge.com/news/780492/meta- #Metaverse #VirtualWorlds #XR #VR #MR #AR #BeyondPictures

Wanted to try streaming again (in private on discord, first) so I bought a new pair of headsets.. It was pretty cheap and with all the cables that went with it (in a faux leather bag), I would say it's worth it! I will test it later on to see if the sound quality is okay...

hatte 2024 viele - mit unbrauchbar gemacht. Ein Microsoft-Entwickler hat nun einen eigenen Treiber geschaffen, der die Geräte mit nutzbar macht. winfuture.de/news,153408.html?

I'm searching a comfortable headset to use at my new apprenticeship as software developer, i.g. in a relatively small office. Can you recommend something that has a good fit and is accessible and lag free with NVDA? Thanks.
