aerodynamik Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 What do you prefer, Wired or Wireless headsets/controlers?? Why do you prefer whichever one? Have you owned both kind and formed an opinion about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I'll choose wireless headsets/controllers one million times than wired ones. I don't like something that connects together that wouldn't let me have freedom of movement. I love changing positions playing games and also, I love listening to music without moving with my music player. Just keeping it some distance like 100m away from my position is what I enjoy when I'm at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImmersionGaming22 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Wired if possible as you will always get better data speeds/latency with the wired option, but sometimes the practicality of wireless outweighs the speed and response times, so yeah i always prefer wired if its practical and does not hinder whatever im using it for! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grungie Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I have both, wireless does have the slight advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Honestly, wireless is preferable, but wired is probably more reliable and lasts longer. I've had many issues with wireless controllers in the past, and it usually was due to the way you charge them. All of my 360 controllers stopped charging at some point. It got bad that I had to keep my plug n charge cable connected at all times anyway. At that point, I'm okay with wired, because I don't usually take my controller too far anyway. I keep it by my xbox and I sit close to that when I use it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Considering being a classic gamer, I play with wired controllers all the time. There were a few wireless controllers made around the N64/PS1 era, but they typically didn't work worth a shit. When I play newer systems, like PS4/5 and Xbox, the wireless ability is really nice. It gives more range of motion and isn't limiting you to a small confined area. As for headsets, I prefer using them wired. Not sure exactly why, but it's just something I do.

Kane99 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Wired is messy, but more reliable, while wireless is less reliable, but doesn't create a mess like wired devices do. I like wired more, because you don't usually get lag with wired, but wireless can have connection issues and lag depending on the device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I do currently prefer wireless controllers and headsets just because the cords tend to trip you up and they're also messy but I still have no problem using wired headsets.

My issue with wired is when you forget the wire is there and trip over it and knock over something expensive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
