Would you keep this headset?

Need to make a new post cuz my old one didn't have the correct information. Im a bit torn on this decision so what would you do??

So I just got the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen3 Playstation headset a few days ago, and I'm happy with the sound and the app. The mic is also good (at least according to my friend).

The only problem is that it is pretty heavy, and my jaw feels a bit weird while wearing it, and I felt pressure on my temple after I took it off after like 2,5 hours.
I wouldn't say my head is so small, but I'm a female, so maybe it just feels heavier for me?

I wear glasses, so sometimes it felt weird, but I just positioned the headset differently, and everything was fine. Sometimes it hurts my earlobe, but that's also not that big of a problem.

If you were in my situation, would you keep this headset or get a lighter one? If you were to get a different headset, what would be your choice for gaming on PS5?

Some additional info:

- First time getting a headset this expensive, so there's also the fear that it might not be worth the money (160€)

- I usually prefer wired headsets, but that might be because I only had wired ones and thought the mic and everything were better on wired headsets

- My first option was the HX Cloud 3S, but I chose TB instead because some people said they have issues with it on the PS5, especially on the slim version. Then there's also the fact that the equalizer only works on a laptop / PC, but that's still manageable for me.

- Would have to get a USB-A to USB-C adapter because the dongle gets really hot when in the back of my PS5 (slim) either way so that is not an issue for me, as long as the quality does not suffer from that.

edit: I also forgot to mention that I do not like noise cancelling because I just like to hear if anything happens around me, especially with my pets in. This headset does not have ANC but I still can't hear anything around me, maybe because it is so heavy?

Need help with decision

So I got the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 gen3 Playstation headset and I like the sound, the mic and the app, but they are heavier than I thought. Now I don't know if I should keep them or not?

I really felt them clamping on my ears and push my glasses against my head (I don't know if thats the best way to describe it), but I also have only worn them once, so maybe I could still get used to them?

I don't know if I should keep them and either get used to them or just look over the lack of comfortability or look for another one?

If i should look for a different headset; does anyone know a headset that is similar to this one and in the same price range? I got this headset for ≈ 160€, which already went over my price limit for 120€ 😅

At first I wanted to get the Hyperx Cloud 3S because many people said its really good but I have also seen people complain about issues on the Playstation (especially on the Slim version, which I own), so I went for Turtle Beach instead because my old headset is also from there.

I absolutely do not mind wired headsets, as long as the sound (especially stuff like hearing footsteps) & microphone are good and theyre comfortable. It should also last for longer gaming sessions. I also don't need noise cancelling, because I like to still hear whats happening around me irl.

stealth 700 gen3 usb dongle on ps5 slim

I just got the stealth 700 gen3 playstation version and since i didnt see anything about the usb dongle on the slim version, I thought the usb dongle would fit.

The back of the console has two usb type-A ports and the usb dongle from the headset is also a type-A one (?), but it doesnt fit.
It looks like it could fit but it doesn't and I also do not want to use force to put it in.

So do I need to get a type-A to type-C port to put it in the front or am I just dumb and it does fit into the back ports of the PS5? Or is there something else I should get to connect it?

Smartvermögen der Sparkasse

Ich wollte mir ein Sparkonto anlegen wo monatlich etwas Geld raufgezahlt wird und die Sparkasse hat deren Smartvermögen empfohlen. Online findet man hauptsächlich nur dumme Witze darüber oder Leute die es einem abraten.

Gibt es tatsächlich nichts positives dadran? Ich habe ehrlich gesagt keine Lust viel über das Investieren zu lernen, also scheint mir das wie der einfachste Weg, da man ja nichts machen muss.

Wenn es wirklich so schlimm ist, was wäre eine gute Alternative oder wo kann man die ersten Schritte lernen? 😰

Issues with Cloud 3S on PS5?

I want to get the Cloud 3S for playing some fps games on my PS5 (Slim disc CFI-2016) but I have seen people talk about issues with the dongle and the microphone on PS5 with this headset so I'm a bit unsure..

It's important to me that the microphone doesnt cut out what I say and that for that price the quality is at least just as good or better than the mic from my old turtle beach recon 150. And it shouldnt have any problems with the connection.

As far as I understand, only certain consoles have this problem but I don't know if mine is one of them.

Does anyone have the same PS5 model and maybe tried out the Hyperx Cloud 3S on it? Would yall recommend this headset on PS5 or should I maybe look for something different? If so, I'm open for recs and I do not mind a wired headset!

Razer Blackshark V2 X or Hyperx Cloud 3S?

I'm looking for a new headset that is good for hearing where footsteps come from in games and have a decent microphone (on PS5)

I saw that the Razer headset has some good reviews and is very cheap (≈30€) but I'm more leaning towards the Hyperx (≈110€) because a lot of people are recommending it, but I also don't know a lot about the Razer headset.

If the Hyperx is better, then I would spend more money but if there isnt such a big difference I would obviously want to spend less lol.

[LFH], [PS5], [100€], [Germany]

Decided it is time to get a new headset after using my old one for so many years because it suddenly stopped working on one side 💔 My budget is around 120€ but I would prefer to spend less if possible

My priorities:
- works well on PS5! (PC would be a nice bonus too for the future)
- good audio, especially for games where you need to hear footsteps and locations (+ music and videos should sound nice as well)
- reliable connection if its via bluetooth, cable is fine as well though
- good microphone
- lasts for multiple hours

My current headset is Turtle Beach Recon 150 headset (not 100% sure). I was very happy with this headset for almost 10 years but I'm hoping my new one would be an upgrade :))

Has anyone experience with these SSDs from SIX?

Just found pretty cheap deals on Amazon for these SSDs and both come with heatsinks!

1TB: 150€ -> 100€
2TB: 240€ -> 170€

Does anyone recommend buying them or would it be better to wait for a more known brand to have a sale on their SSD?

Arbeitsschuhe S3 für verletzten Fuß?

Kennt jemand bequeme und leichte Arbeitsschuhe (nur S3) für jemanden, der einen Unfall mit dem Fuß hatte?

Der Unfall hat dazu geführt, dass 3 Bänder Im Bereich der Hacke & Knöchel gerissen sind und dies ist auch nach 2 Jahren nicht komplett verheilt, daher tut der Fuß schnell weh und schwellt oft an.

Wichtig wäre zudem auch, dass es ein Schuh ist, bei dem die Füße auch gut atmen können / nicht schnell schwitzen.

Hauptaktivität besteht aus Stehen und Laufen, jedoch weiß ich nicht, welche Schuhe überhaupt am besten passen könnten.

Danke im Voraus!

PS+ on second account worth it?

My PS+ subscription ends today and the Days of Play sale also ends today so I'm thinking about getting PS+ (extra or premium) on my second account if I won't be able get it on my main.

My question is, would it be worth it to buy Extra or Premium on my second account (both accounts are on the same PS5)? It's important to me that I can play the catalogue games on my main and that all PS+ benefits are also available on my main 🥲
