Our take on the RIG 300 PRO HC Premier Universal Wired Gaming Headset

The RIG 300 PRO HC is a wired universal gaming headset with a boom microphone and virtual surround sound, aimed at consoles, PC and mobile. It uses an on-ear/over-ear hybrid fit and comes in purple. It is a budget-tier headset, so expect plastic build and a fixed 3.5mm cable rather than wireless freedom.

Questions and answers

Is the RIG 300 PRO HC worth it?
For a cheap wired headset, yes. It covers the basics: surround sound, a boom mic and broad 3.5mm compatibility. If you want premium comfort or wireless, spend more.
Does it work with PS5 and Xbox?
It connects by 3.5mm, so it works with any controller or device that has a headphone jack, including PS5, Xbox and Switch. Check that your controller has a jack.
Does it need charging?
No. It is fully wired and draws no battery, so it works as long as it is plugged in.
Is the surround sound real?
It is virtual surround processed from stereo drivers, not discrete surround speakers. It helps with directional cues in games but is not the same as a multi-driver headset.
What is in the box?
Expect the headset with its attached cable and microphone. Adapters and extra cables are not typically included, so check the listing before buying.
When is it cheapest?
Budget wired headsets like this usually drop during back-to-school and holiday sales. Watch the price history rather than buying at full price.
