Sennheiser GSP 370 Wireless Gaming Headset Review: Strong Bass, Stronger Battery Life

With good looks and even better battery life, this is the new king of tether-free gaming cans.

Tom's Hardware Verdict

The GSP 670 is considerably cheaper than Sennheiser's flagship model but bears a similar sturdy design, and its amazingly long battery life is hard to top. However, we'd prefer a better mic, and you won't get the same sound quality as you would with a wired headset.

Pros

  • +

    Incredibly long battery life

  • +

    Beautifully constructed

  • +

    All the bass you could wish for with no loss of detail higher up the EQ range

Cons

  • -

    Disappointing mic quality

  • -

    Fractional sound quality loss over wired models

  • -

    Limited software features

  • -

    Software UI could use a refresh

When buying a wireless headset, good audio quality is, of course, a necessity, but also important is battery life. The point of going wire-free is simplicity, but if you're constantly having to charge that wireless device, simplicity goes out the window. Longer battery life means more time to game, and if that's a main priority for you, one of the best gaming headsets is Sennheiser’s GSP 370 ($200 at the time of writing, PC, Mac and PlayStation 4). 

The headset is the lower-end version of the wireless Sennheiser GSP 670 (about $300) , but the GSP 370 still delivers brilliant audio and build quality. And that's while extending claimed battery life up to 20 hours (via Bluetooth) over the flagship. If you want a simplified gaming experience without sacrificing much audio quality, the GSP 370 does it just as well as pricier headsets by making searches for the charging cable much less frequent.
