A durable headset with a decent mic?

I've only tried plantronics and jabra but they aren't available in malls here. I'm choosing between Steelseries Arctis, Logitech, Sennheiser and HyperX Cloud Stinger . I'm leaning towards the gaming headsets because they look so comfortable, but some reviews I've read said they don't even last a year. Anyone have any experience with these brands or can suggest other durable brands? Mu budget is only $70.

No experience of head sets at all to be honest. 70 bucks, is that not a lot for a head set?

I'm gonna use it for work so I want to get the durable ones with at least a little noise reduction.

It's pretty average for a decent headset. Some of the really nice gaming headsets can run upwards of $200.

yeah it's so confusing to just pick one. All have their good and bad reviews too.

Of the brands you've listed, I'm only familiar with Logitech's headsets. I've been pretty happy with the ones I've owned. As far as gaming headsets go, my husband's been really happy with the Corsair ones he has now. The Turtle Beach ones he bought about four years ago are still working fine, too, aside from an issue with the band physically breaking (which is probably the kids' fault if I'm being completely honest because they were using them for online school last year).

Thanks for the advice, I'll try to look for that same brand, since a friend of mine uses Corsair too.

I'm sorry I don't have any suggestions, because I'm using a headset that comes with my smartphone so I don't buy anything else, I hope you get a good one

I have Logitech and Sennheiser plus the Jabra that the office issued to us. Sennheiser is the bet among the three that I have.

@lady1993 tell me what brand you ended up getting. It is 5.5 sale tomorrow so might be a good time to get stuff online.

I perfer ear buds personally, but I would imagine a gaming headset might work for you.

My mic is a headband headset. I bought it last year June for $50. I don't remember the name of the brand, I will need to take my mic and check and update you
