If so, which ones? I am looking to game and talk to friends over discord on my Steam Deck. No FPS, more bullet hells, ARPGs, etc. Thank you!!

    I use Sony wh1000-xm5 noise canceling, they are amazing for immersion. Using the built in mic for steam audio and it works well

      Thanks for your comment! I was thinking the XM4 for myself vs. The Bose Quietcomforts with like a V Moda Boom mic but was nervous about the latency and whether there were better set ups to be considered.

        I switched from XM3 to XM4 after water damage. I am very happy with both and I use(d) both with the Steam deck on a regular basis. Recommended 🏅

      First time to hear something positive about them. Only heard that they are a step down from xm3 and 4.

        At least they fixed the breaking hinges. On my XM3 both are held on by super glue. Apart from that, they’re great, over 5 years old and the battery still lasts 3 days of more than 10 hours a day usage

        I had the xm4, the 5 is better. It wasn’t a revolutionary change, but it was definitely an improvement, not worse
