A Gaming Headset for AU$5? You’ve Gotta Be Kidding!

The Wild World of Black Friday Deals

Oh, Black Friday! The time when our wallets scream but our hearts skip a beat over deals that sound too good to be true. Honestly, it feels like the shopping event of the century has been on for ages now! After diving into countless gaming deals, I was starting to think nothing could genuinely wow me. Sure, there were some good offers out there, but nothing that made me do a double-take… until now!

Can You Really Get a Gaming Headset for $5?

Hold onto your hats, folks! Mwave is tossing a gaming headset into the bargain bin for a jaw-dropping AU$5! That’s cheaper than your morning coffee. Seriously, how can you resist? But let’s be real—this headset is usually going for AU$79.95, so if it’s dropping to five bucks, you’ve gotta wonder what’s up. Is it made from recycled pizza boxes? Time will tell!

Now, I tried to dig up some reviews of this mystical headset named the Stealth XP Conqueror. Spoiler alert: they were few and far between. The only gem I unearthed was a review from back in 2019 that gave it a solid 7 out of 10. However, it also whispered that such praise might just have been overly generous. Supposedly, it comes with a dazzling icy design (which, to be honest, I find kinda tacky) and can connect to multiple devices. Wow, groundbreaking stuff! But, be warned—it’s designed in such a way that it can and will just slip off your head when it feels like taking a vacation. Not the best look when you’re deep into a boss battle!

But hey, for a fiver, you’ve got to try it, right? It could be the perfect solution for a picky child or for someone who embraces the motto ‘meh, it’s good enough!’ Just keep in mind that shipping costs will bump that price up to AU$16.50. So you’re really treading the line between bargain and ‘maybe I should just go to the dollar store instead?’ If you live in Sydney, though, you can swing by and grab it in person—no shipping fees needed!

For a measly five bucks, it’s tempting! But I get it if you have that little voice in your head saying it’s probably not worth even sixteen bucks. You might want to check out other items from Mwave’s Black Friday extravaganza to balance that shipping woe.

Now, about the specs: we’re talking 40mm speaker drivers, a flexible mic (which isn’t detachable, mind you), volume control right there on the headset, and plush foam cushioning. Pretty decent for something costing less than a large pizza! If you’ve ever struggled with the headset that came with your ancient Xbox 360, prepping for this might just feel like being front-row at a live concert compared to sitting on your couch.

So before you dive into more polished Black Friday headset deals, think about this little treasure. At AU$5, it’s hard to resist the temptation, even if it’s purely for comedic value. But if you’re looking for something more reliable, you might want to whip out a bit more cash. Who would’ve thought shopping could be this thrilling?
