One glance at my author photo or learning that I'm above the age of 30 should be enough for anyone to surmise that I am not the target audience for the JLab x MrBeast Nightfall Wired gaming headset - and yet, I still quite like it.
It's not going to give the best gaming headsets a run for their money any time soon, but it ticks all the boxes of what makes a great bit of licensed tech. The MrBeast design might not be to everyone's tastes, but it manages to balance its flashy branding with a great sound and all for as low as under the $30 price mark.
Do I like the headset enough that I'm going to transform into a massive MrBeast fan? No, I'm much happier sticking to my hour-long video essays on Disney Channel shows I've never watched from YouTubers like Keyan Carlile instead. However, if you know a younger MrBeast fan in your life who wants to chat to their friends via GameChat on the Nintendo Switch 2 and has a small budget in mind, this JLab X MrBeast wired headset gets the job done.
