Promising no less than “the future of gaming audio”, Microsoft has debuted its hot new must-have accessory for Xbox and mobile devices, and Windows 10 PCs.

This is the company’s first official wireless headset since, I dunno, the Xbox 360? So that’s fun. According to the announcement on Xbox Wire, the Xbox Wireless Headset goes up to four hours on a 30-minute charge, and up to 15 hours on a three-hour charge. You can also customise its audio features through the Xbox Accessories app on your console or PC, including equalising, bass boost, and even an auto-mute option so your friends don’t have to listen to your gross breathing.

One other rad feature is that you can link it with your console and phone at the same time, and discreetly frag some noobs in the middle of a Zoom conference. Your boss won’t even know!

The Xbox Wireless Headset launches in South Africa on 28 May with a price of R1,799.
