Gaming Headset vs Normal Headphones: Which IS Better? (Sony Wh-1000XM3/HyperX Cloud Alpha Showdown!)
In this video I share the key differences between a gaming headset and a non-gaming traditional listening headphone. I also give some tips on how to make many non-gaming headphones into full gaming headsets with just a few modifications.

did not expect this comparison. But thank you, just what I needed
calm. helpful. no bad edits or music. thank you. nice video
Thank you!
Exactly the content i was looking for! Thanks
You're welcome Eduardo!
same, i doubted that anyone would actually do this comparison
Great comparison and explanation, thanks!! Compared exact two models I am looking to buy, perfect!
You helped bro for having the alternative mic save!
this is the exact view i was looking for, was back and forth on xm3 and arctis pro, went arctis pro before seeing this review and now i'm even more excited to recieve them! Thank you so much!
Thank you! I'm glad my video was able to help make your purchasing decision more clear!
how's the Arctis Pro? I'm looking at Arctis 7 Wireless, cause I want something that is comfortable to wear for hours (like at least 4 hours), has surround sound for FPS games(spatial sound?) and has good enough audio quality for either gaming or just music in general when working yet, I can't quite decide whether to get a gaming headset or headsets like WH-1000XM3
@@OhMiGowD I'm hopefully getting the XM3 tomorrow, so I'll let you know how it works out for gaming :D Also, you can't really use the arctis pro outside, the XM3 is way better in that sense.
@@meistermusic7168 how did it go? I did some research over the past few days, apparently there's nothing really special to gaming headphones, so my choices are now either XM3 or Bose QC35ii though I live in warmer climate, so idk if XM3 will heat up too fast (I plan to use it for long hours)
@@OhMiGowD Hey! I got the XM3 a couple days ago, and the pair was not working properly, so I excghanged it for another pair today. I play CSGO at high ranks and I'd say that these are the same as your standard gaming headphones, no issues there. They tend to get a little hot at times, but not TOO hot where you can't even wear them. Overall they are very nice, only problem for me currently is all the little crackling and plasticy noise they make with my long hair :D Which games do you usually play?
This is just what i needed to know. I've been looking for the xm3 for gaming but wasn't so sure about those details. Such a great content!
Thanks Carlos! I'm glad to hear this video helped!
Have been using 1000xm3 for gaming for 2 years and these are so good.
Does it have lags when used wirelessly while gaming?
@@zwinata never used it wireless for gaming. Highly recommend using cable.
Really cool video ! That’s what I was looking for
Thank you SOO much for making this video. It really clarified things for me as i'm looking to buy a headset that works both for gaming and work.
Nice video man was not hoping to find such video :p
Thanks! I always try to find something helpful to talk about that I've had issues with in the past that I know can help fellow gamers!
Great video, I didn't know you could get that kind of boom mic.
Thank you! Yeah it's a really cool boom mic, especially since it allows you to chat through headphones that sound great but didn't come with a compatible mic of themselves for gaming applications
Exactly what I was looking for . What a shame that we can’t use these 350$ headphones for I game sound and chat at the same time . Thanks Mate !
You're welcome Magic! Just to clarify, you can use the XM3 headphones for game chat, however, you'll need to add an in-line boom mic like the one I mentioned in the video. It really doesn't cost much at all, and are a super-worthy investment that essentially pays for itself in convenience. Once you add the mic and plug the XM3 into the DualShock controller headphone jack, you will get all the game audio and PS Party chat functionality just like you would with a dedicated gaming headset.
@@JohnHammer I wish i could , but i live outside US , think i should look for it locally . Thanks again!
Thank you so much! Although I don't speak english natively, I was able to understand everything and solve my doubts. excellent video!
Thanks John, nice informative video. I have one question though do you have 7.1 surround sound? I guess that uses software on the ps4?
Thanks a lot!
You're welcome! Thanks so much for watching!
nice content. well done. very informative and helpful.
This is exactly what i am looking for!
Nice video man! Helped me to use my XM3’s for Warzone and Fortnite.
Thank you Randeep! I'm glad to hear you are able to enjoy your XM3s for online multiplayer.
are these good for gaming? im looking for an all around wireless setup
Cloudy Paradise hey if you want a wireless setup on PS4 u will need a dongle for a mic and wireless audio. If PC then it’s great because u can change the EQ to for example boost treble to hear steps better on the song headphones app
Randeep Singh perfect. I am on pc and think that it’ll work perfectly now. Thank you. Btw how is the mix quality for you?
This or the XM4s present latency for gaming? Or is better idea to used them wired?
great content!
Thank you!
Dope video!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it
Amazing Video 👍
Ive got to ask, does the auxiliary boom mic that you're using have any noticeable effect on the headphones sound quality?
Just got my 1000xm4's and I was SUPRISED by how good they sound while gaming, def recommended
That's awesome! Sony makes a great pair of noise-cancelling headphones for sure
Can you hear for example from where an enemy is coming like footsteps behind you or sounds on your right or left? Or like sounds from (an explosion for example) 30 meters away be more quiet but sounds from 5 meters explosion more loud?
Thats what Im trying to do research on...as much money I spent on these headphones I would expect them to sound better than the Sony Pulse 3D headphones and be great for gaming...
@Kavin Krishna you get better audio if you have them on because power is being applied too the drivers.
@Kavin Krishna at least with my experience using them. It doesn’t just increase the bass. It improved overall clarity of everything in game.
Nice video bro
You're awesome. Thanks
You're welcome!
"non-gaming" headsets can be used for gaming (on PC); It's just that console manufacturers will deliberately restrict which headsets can be used with them so they can control the sales of headsets used for consoles... I have an EPOS 660 Adapt which is a business headset which I use for gaming all the time and it works fine. the problem isn't the headset being limited but the console creating that limitation by design.
Found it really help me! Gonna buy XM4 because i heard sony was really good at sounds but they don't have the mic. There you go, you give the solution! Many thanks!
You're always welcome Andre! I'm so glad to hear this helped!
Do they work for xm4
@@burningknuckle26 yes it works, the sound test super super clean better than gaming headset tbh.. i never regret it.. but buy the original one (the v-moda)
@@andretanza6230 wut is v moda?
@@burningknuckle26 the best external mic for headphone (as far as i know)
I'm planning to buy the XM4 for gaming on the next gen consoles. Do you think the headphones will work normaly on the Series X?
Unfortunately no, but I'm sure you can buy an adapter
If you use the jack, then yes
Yes, if you use the controller jack and to improve sound quality, download the Dolby Atmos and/or DTS-X apps from the store.
Sadly most consoles do not support bluetooth audio. I think only nintendo switch supports it. The big issue is audio lag. Even with an adapter you will notice some audio lag.
I had sony m3 and for gaming I was about to order HyperX cloud stinger. U save me! Thanks
You're welcome! I love the sound quality of the XM3s
@@JohnHammer Boom mic was no available in my country so I bought Maona au a04t...Prblm solved! Thanks!
If you connect your Sony WH-1000XM3 with bluetooth to your tv and then turn on your ps4, will it stream audio to the headphones?
idk this channel but good work bud
Thanks Zeegum!
Not sure I agree - felt that my XM3's with the Vmoda boom pro is great even for spacial awareness. Did you play with the EQ settings at all?
I personally felt that I got more of a surround experience, especially in FPS games with the HyperX, but the XM3 is almost the same in terms of that as well. The EQ settings provide a different sound stage which is really nice so that you can get your preferred sound for each style of game you're playing, like FPS vs RPGs. Either way you're not going wrong purchasing one over the other and will get an excellent gaming experience from both!
Hey Man! Do you have your recommended EQ settings for FPS games that you can share?
What is Vmoda boom??? I also have the XM3s. Thanks
What settings do you have on equalizer?
I liked the simplicity in the video
Thanks!
Hi there, just a question. Can I use 5.1 and 7.1 gaming headsets watching and listening to movies on computer? Can I enjoy surround sound properly or do they work only with games? I have DVDs and Blue-Ray films and sometimes I would watch them on my PC. I have a Soundblaster Omni external sound card but I would prefer surround headphones. Do you have any suggestion? Thank you.
speakers are 5.1/7.1, headphones are headphones the surround sound is all virtual, even if you have a headphone with multiple drivers they are still just left right(on your head)
hello thank you for the video. Do the Sony xm3's still enable you to use Anc while pluggin it into the 3.5mm of the ps4 controller.??
Hi H C thank you for the kind comments. Great question. Yes they do! And the sound quality with ANC powered on (with the 3.5m plugged in) is still really good as well.
Good video mr John . Iam from india , good work . Your chanel will grow and make sure your face is nearer to camera so we can njoy watching you with your information.😊
Thank you so much! And thank you for the kind feedback!
I wonder if you already own a Sony xm4. Would it be worth to get a a very budget headset like logitech g432 or hyper x cloud stinger that has 7.1 surround? Would a cheap headset still beat the Sony for fps gaming since it has that 7.1? What about Windows sonic settings on pc would that fix the problem with the Sony for fps gaming (footsteps etc)?
I think studio headphones are better for gaming . Since it's high , mids, lows are balanced
If you already have the Sony xm3 do not buy any other headphones for gaming. You can customize the sound on Sony xm3 through the Sony app. You can definitely hear footsteps. Anyways.... thanks for the boom mic. That’s exactly what I needed from this video. Have a great day.
Great tips. The boom mic is definitely amazing and I highly recommend it for turning this headphone into a fully capable gaming headset with chat capability. Thank you for watching and the kind words!
Hey Paul! Do you mind sharing your settings on your XM3s here? I wanna customize it hopefully for FPS games where footstep audio is KEY. I’m an audio novice so I don’t really know which sounds to customize.
I didn't think you could mess with the eq while plugged in using boom mic...?
Can you hear for example from where an enemy is coming like footsteps behind you or sounds on your right or left? Or like sounds from (an explosion for example) 30 meters away be more quiet but sounds from 5 meters explosion more loud?
Also, if you connect your Sony WH-1000XM3 with bluetooth to your tv and then turn on your ps4, will it stream audio to the headphones?
I use my XM4’s with the VModa boom mic and the Dolby atmos app and it sounds incredible
Is there a dolby atmos app on the ps4/ps5?
@@datdus5524 no idea, i only have the Series X
@@vikingfury2065 how do you use Dolby Atmos with your Xm4's on Xbox?
I have a cloud 2 and I'm getting an xm3 which I will also use for gaming if the sound is right. I'll be using the steel series gaming DAC to connect them (have been doing so for years with my cloud 2, the cloud 2 sound is 1000x better through the steel series dac than its own mini dac cable or through 3.5)
how does the game sound ? will you get the digital sound or anolog?
I have both of these headphones lol. I use the Hyperx Cloud Alpha for gaming, work (at home) and calls (at home). I use the XM3s for listening to music at home, whilst travelling and working in the office. I think they're both really solid options for most use cases.
Absolutely! I like them both a lot too
is there a headphone that can do both without compromising on quality?
Next video, compare hyperx vs sony while hearing music
Noted!
Sony wins Hands down, gaming headphones tend to compromise on sound quality
Thats not even a fair comparison lol.... I have both sony blows out the hyperx in music
Great video. Could you configure the sony's equalizer so it is better for FPS?
Thanks Ali. Unfortunately for the XM3s you can only adjust the equalizer while connected through a mobile device like iOS or Android. If you want a total custom equalizer experience check out the Sony Gold or Platinum headsets
@@JohnHammer wouldn't that mean you could change the EQ settings on your phone then plug them into the ps4? Or does it reset to default after once you disconnect them from your phone?
I was totally thinking the same thing! I’ve tried multiple times adjusting it through the app, unpairing it, and then hooking it up to the PS4 controller, but the EQ setting seems to go back to default.
@@JohnHammer thanks a ton man! Really appreciate the info!
Hey, I need some help. Should I keep the Logitech and return it? I have a sony wh-1000xm3. Recently I purchased devices to start streaming and with this, I bought a Logitech g pro x wireless for gaming. Something that I notice is that sony is amazing in quality comparing to Logitech, but I really do not know the difference between gaming and normal headphones. Also, I have a mic (elgato wave 3) so I don't use the mic from the headphones. Thank you much
Oscar If you are using another dedicated microphone then if sound is the biggest priority you can cross shop between gaming and non-gaming headsets. However, if you like the convenience of a wireless headset, then only a gaming headset will provide that capability, since non-gaming headsets have to be plugged into the headphone jack of the controller to get sound
Bro can u say how hyper x sounded when you are listening to normal music compared to sony wh1000xm3 please reply
Yes, noted! Thank you for the suggestion.
I noticed that no one ever mentions that part. Sure the gaming aspect is more important since we are talking about gaming but theres other aspects too. Listening to music, watching movies and videos. I have searched so many videos because I'm looking for a pair of headphones for my computer. And should I get a gaming headset or a regular pair of nice headphones. And every single video never mentions videos, movies, and music. It's always just gaming. Any video that has to do with gaming headsets. They never mention the other usage.
Thanks for the video! I have xm3s but was unsure if it is worth it to get a gaming headset on top of that. Thanks for helping me compair the two! Subbed, have a great day!
You're welcome TML Robotics. I'm glad that this video was able to help you with your decision! The XM3s are an excellent pair of over ear noise cancelling headphones, but having the chance to try out a pair of gaming headsets like the HyperX Alphas with the differences in its sound stage is definitely worth it.
@@JohnHammer Hi John, I'm wondering if the XM3s are really behind in playing FPS games... XM3s do have that surround sound and the noise cancelling function blocks out unnecessary noise without raising the game volume higher. Theoretically, if you can adjust things, i think it would beat any gaming headset given that it has superior speakers in it.. What do you think? (i currently have an arctis 7 and 1000xm3 but im thinking of selling the arctis 7 since that, to me, feels like a toy..)
Do you know if the boom pro mic works with the xm4 aswell or if its only for the xm3
Both!
Did u try editing the sound on the sony app to add more treble, lows and lower bass to see how they worked on warzone?
That’s the problem I’m having now. I have the wh1000x. I use them for war zone. But the treble isn’t there. And the bass is too high. Trying to figure how to adjust it.
@@Snazy30 Yea, I just ended up returning mine as I couldn't figure it out aswell and I majority use them for gaming, I kept having a problem of the earmuffs making my esr sweat because of the leather. Just copped a gx6 amp and some beyerdynamic 990s!
@@Adrian-he5zs how has that setup been workin for u?
@@victorbenitez363 It's been great man, The Beyerdynamic 990 and they sound very good. They do have a bit of treble it gets a bit getting used to but with the gx6 amp It made a very good combo. I Use it for warzone and it's very good. Sounds good and I could hear footsteps very well! Would definitely reccomend the setup. Would probably run you 300 for the headset and amp!
Some I would reccomwnd thoughts if your using it for a ps4 like me make sure you get a external USB mic that's supported by playstation as the headphone jack on the the gx6 does not work with the ps4 chat. If your on pc just disregard everything I just said as everything should work easy and well on pc.
OR just get Arctis 1 Wireless, it's even fully compatible with PS5's Tempest 3D AudioTech and connects low latency 2.4 Ghz with PC & Switch.
for general movies, songs, youtube listening in macbookpro, is there any advantage if using a gaming headset? or you suggest the sony for my purpose?
They are both very nice headsets for that purpose. The Sony XM3/XM4 you'll be able to wirelessly connect to your MacBook via bluetooth, so a little more convenient in that respect. Music sounds incredible on the Sonys and you can adjust the EQ on the free iOS Android app to dial in the perfect audio levels for your listening.
@@JohnHammer this video was quite informative.
i have the same headset and my party crying that they hear them self, i used to have razer kraken and everything was good. do tou have the same echo problem? seems like mic is very sensitive
Doode !!!! Thank you for this.
Yeap, always thought getting a game headset was pointless as they are used just for...well gaming and sucks outside of that. A good non-gaming wireless headset with a mic purchased and plugged in is way better investment.
sorry for the n00b question, i'm waiting for a pair of mx3's. why can't you talk in game chats, don't they have a built in mic for calls?
It has a mic, sony doesn't support it. Get a Playstation camera, it has a mic u can use
It does have a built in mic, but it won't work when plugging in to a PS Dualshock 4 controller. Adding a boom mic to the xm3 will enable mic support when connected to the PlayStation.
when using pc you can turn up high frequency sounds so they can be used in FPS gaming
Just to get this straight, I can plug my xm3 into my controller, and then connect a USB mic, like a Maono, into the PlayStation and boom that to my face to talk through?
Yes!
@@JohnHammer Can I plug them to the controller and connected by bluetooth on the phone? So I can hear the game and discord at the same time
No only one or the other. As soon as you plug in to the controller it turns off the Bluetooth connection
bro, i came from the asto a50 to the sony wh-1000xm3 and i don't have any problem with spatial awareness. you are just too satisfied with the hyperx so be rational and fair to the comparison. the thing is that i see you views make their buy made by your statement beliving it is true
Can you use this mic with Bluetooth connection ? ( discord or just phone talk )
Can you adjust the audio settings for Call of Duty with the Sony’s for PS4?
That's what I was thinking. Surely there is a way to turn down the bass and crank up the mids. I know there is an app for the headphones, I just don't know if that app is only for use on the phone or you could use it to permanently change the EQ of the headset regardless of the device used.
I only play story mode games so the mic is no big deal to me and im about to get the xm4 is it gonna perform well on ps4 and ps5 ?
It should. The xm4 is very similar to the xm3 other than some incremental improvements
1000xm3 are muddy when it comes to mids and highs, they excel in bass. You need headphones that have a flatter eq profile. If you need ANC headphones the Bose Quiet Comfort 35 ii have a better sound profile for gaming. I've returned my Sony's for the Bose. Picked up the Bose refurbed for $150.
i have Wh-1000XM3 , What Cable Boom Microphone buy , Color: For-Bose-QC25/35 or Color: For-Sony-MDR/WH ? by the way.. I bought Color: For-Bose-QC25/35 , does it work with sony xm3?
My sister has the Sony WH-1000XM3 and when I tried them out, I noticed that they were good, especially the bass but I wouldn't use it for FPS games.
The bass is really nice on these!
@@JohnHammer Yes, definitely. The best I have ever heard.
I like your videos but editing and thumbnails could have been improved :) I also do designing let me know if need me (I might do work for free(some videos))
Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad that you enjoy my videos!
I have an elgato mic so thats Not a Problem. I ve got toumors in my Head so Many Headsets Are a Problem … my Kraken v3 Borke down … Plastic on the Side There where is the hypersense Logo the comblete Thing broke …. Bad Build Quality Iam now Searching for a New one… ive tried 8 different all Are making Pain. My friend had dead xm2s and They re comfortable. Are the xm4s Great for footsteps and Locating ? With 3,5 cable ? As i Said no mic needed. Or do you have an Alternative if Not ? I have a big head and just Imagine Having a Frozen pea between the cushions and your Head so it feels for me if to much pressure or to Hard cushions
Sometimes the intelligence is in simple things 4:25
I have a Playstation camera which i use as a mic. Same mx3
With the WH-1000XM3 playing call duty mobile, I can hear the footsteps exactly where coming from. Using just Bluetooth
That’s great Big CountrySD. The XM3s are a solid quality pair of noise cancelling over ear headphones that are easily worth their price, especially when they go on sale!
Do they become uncomfortable to wear after like 2 -3 hours , i have sony 950b1 i thik they have a little tight or hard headband and makes it very uncomfortable for long use, Will some mid range hyper x will be good for me? I just don’t want the skullcrusher headband these 950s have
SUPREME xD No, 1000mx3 are actually very comfortable, I use them to play call of duty mobile, and wear them probably a good four or five hours during my gaming sessions.
are the sony good for tv shows and movies as well?
Drizzly Drake Yes, I use them a lot to watch TVs and shows.
Hi, i’ve got the 4 version of these headphones, but I’m not getting any audio through the wire when connected to the controller. I do get audio however when plugged into my phone. Any ideas why anybody?
dont sony have an app for equalizers. like a gaming mode filter?
Can I connect Sony WH-1000XM3 with bluetooth to my tv (which has bluetooth) and then when i turn on my ps4 pro will the audio be streamed from the headphones?
Good question Simon, I tried this on my Samsung tv and was not able to get it to work wirelessly. I was only able to get the XM3 to work with my PS4 via wired input to controller
@@JohnHammer So the audio does not stream through the headphones when they are connected to the tv?
Steelseries Arctic 9 wireless or HyperX Cloud II Wireless ?
would the 'high boost 'sound setting in warzone help with the footsteps in warzone when using the sonys?
It's worth a try! The Sony and Warzone combo sounds nice indeed
For the Sony wh-1000xm3 what Jack I need? Sony option or jack 3.5 option?
It’s just a standard 3.5mm jack
@@JohnHammer in the video you use the standard 3.5 options?
Yes
It’s Sony WH work with kind of thing like watching movie and like … survive gaming especially SCUM? Thank you
that is so pitty that you can't use sony's mic via cable :( I also tried to connect my XM4 to pc through bluetooth, but you can't use stereo sound and mic at the same time.
Can we plug in hyper x detachable mic into Sony 1000 xm3 .
Great question: Unfortunately in order to get mic support for the 1000XM3s you'll need a boom mic that also has the headphone cable in-line with the mic, which then plugs in to the headphone jack of the XM3
Please tell me a mic like hyper x mic With 3.5 connectivity.
You can use V-moda boompro
is there any latency issue while gaming with non gaming headset?
None that I was able to notice, and I'm really into audio speed
Does it work for xm4
I never had sony headphones. The 4th gen is my first pair. I'm waiting for these in the mail.
Nice choice!
Have they come, I bought these headphones and it’s the best investment I’ve ever made
@@ua9764 yes. And also if you want ldac on check your Bluetooth settings under advanced. Word of advice.
The sonys sound better than the cloud alpha when wired. Maybe its the lower ohms. When the headset is off its 16 ohms.
@@justinw7323 how about sony when using wirelessly vs (basically wired) cloud alpha I already have the alpha but i'm planning to buy sony m4
i used to game with a xm3 and i havent noticed that you couldnt locate where enemies were
With the xm3 can you hear for example from where an enemy is coming like footsteps behind you or sounds on your right or left? Or like sounds from 30 meters be more quiet but sounds from 5 meters more loud?
I guess ps4 doesnt have dolby atmos or 3d sound I have the xm3's and i can hear sounds over, behind and in front og me in game. Im a pc player btw.
i just bought the headset and its amazing in music but im buying a laptop in a few days and im concerned it wont work that well in gaming , i play siege and warzone
For me on a desktop pc, it works well with the xm3's. No need to buy gaming headphones.
Are you playing wireless or wired
@@ShoutOut2K Did u use the app to set up the eq and all that stuff, and then connect them to the pc or u just connected then with the default settings?
Can we use it for gaming 👀👀
Yes! You can use any for gaming!
@@JohnHammer there is no latency? Or in order to avoid latency use wired?
can you use noise cancelling while playing ps4 or pc?
Yes! The noise cancelling function works on the XM3 while wired
I do the same thing these with an aux and mic
Moises it's great isn't it? It allows you to connect and chat with headphones that weren't originally intended for gaming like the XM3s but sound great when you wire them with an aux and boom mic.
@@JohnHammer yup
Does it have stereo audio?
I bought the xm4 and i get a lot of sound delay while gaming and low sound, does anybody know how to fix that??
Sini did you make sure the cable is plugged into the controller all the way? Sometimes if it's out a little bit it can cut the sound off
Lol can’t you just connect your xm3 wirelessly though BT to your TV and enjoy your game??? Why do you need to hook up a wire to your controller?
The wire enables the XM3's to be used as both for gaming audio, as well as for communicating on a boom mic for online gaming.
Because it makes sound lag in some cases wich is very bad for gaming
Can you use the mic while gaming
For the XM3 the built in mic will not work for gaming and will require an additional boom mic. The mic on the HyperX definitely works for any gaming application
love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
try the sony wh-1000xm5??
Lmao he kinda looks like Bugha grown up version😂
You can do a comparison of DT 990 and the Sony? Would be interesting
Noted! Thank you for the great suggestion
Unable to use WH-1000xm3 and 4 as gaming headphones simultaneously with Discord voice chat.
You remember how much you paid for the xm3 at Black Friday?
I just checked and I got them for $278 plus tax. I've seen recent sales where you can get them for slightly less than that but at this price they are an awesome sounding headphone with tons of noise cancellation and customization
No gaming headset is beating a quality pair of Beyerdynamic's or Sennheisers.
Don't forget the boom mic if you want to chat with friends online!
On ps5 it works with beats by dre
true i use that also hahaha good quality on ps5
I can chat with the xm3 without external mic on ps5
The Hyper X....are fuckin truth
