Asus ROG Delta S

Durable build quality ; Immensely comfortable ; Crisp audio

Simpler software ; Average mic

The Asus ROG Delta S Wireless is a great wireless gaming headset that is wonderfully comfortable, sounds fantastic and offers vast compatibility. Connectivity is literal plug and play, while the 25 hours of battery life provides plenty of endurance....

Great audio Fun mini-LED AniMe Dot Matrix effects AniMe Matrix effects remain when connected to any device Light and comfortable

Cord is short for gaming consoles Few AniMe Matrix effect options Too expensive

“The ROG Delta S Animate’s fun lights are its main draw, but you won’t see them while gaming.”

Great audio quality ; Multi-platform support ; Soft ear padding ; RBG lighting system

Expensive ; Not wireless ; Feels quite heavy

Very comfortable and fairly lightweight ; Decently balanced sound ; Spacious audio for a wider soundstage ; USB-C wireless transmitter with a garage

Mids a little recessed ; No volume wheel ; Mic just ok

I probably wouldn’t pick up the Asus ROG Delta S Wireless from just looking at it, as it isn’t the most attractive headset. However, its comfortable, lightweight design, along with its solid sound, might change your mind. I’m just not sure you’re...

Superb audio quality throughout ; Compatible with lots of devices ; Can be set up within minutes

The design and build is all plastic ; No RGB lighting options available ; No wired option for your audio

To our ears the Asus ROG Delta S Wireless headset sounds pretty fantastic, and you get all the freedom of listening without wires. It'll work with multiple different devices and platforms, though you do miss out on some features offered by more...

Superb overall sound quality ; Plenty of customisation options ; Works with lots of devices

Design won't suit everyone ; No wireless option ; More expensive than some

The Asus ROG Delta S Animate certainly impresses in terms of its audio performance, but if you're going to buy – and it is more expensive than many of its competitors – it's likely going to be because of the customisable dot matrix lighting effects on...

Excellent comfort and great choice of earcups ; Interesting beamforming mic design ; Loud drivers ; Fast-charging battery ; Easily customisable controls

Sound a bit hollow at times ; Battery life isn't as good as others

The ROG Delta S Wireless is an interesting proposition. It requires a bit of tweaking to get sounding right, but, generally, it's been fun to play with and makes for a nice package.

Comfortable headband and earcup padding ; Impressive high-resolution audio ; Intelligent mic noise cancellation ; RGB lighting - including on the go

Mic monitoring is problematic ; No 3.5mm connection ; Audio sounds more tinny during gaming

This gaming headset is a mixed bag. It's comfortable to wear, plus sounds fantastic when listening to music on Tidal, but to our ears it just lacks depth for gaming and the microphone should be better too.

Comfortable, lightweight design ; Cool, animated display on both ear cups ; Great audio quality, separation, and positioning ; Customisable through Armoury Crate software

Cables are kind of short, especially for console players ; Animated displays are cool, but you can’t see them while wearing the headset ; Pricey

A USB-C, wired gaming headset with D-Shaped ear cups, AniMe Matrix display, and a built-in Hi-Fi ESS 9281 Quad DAC
