I’m lucky. I get to test many of the best gaming headsets out there for my job. That means I literally get paid to play games and listen to music. Yes, I know I have the best job in the world.
Naturally, I need to do quite a bit of research around all the products I test. I don’t read other publications’ reviews before writing my own. But, where possible, I look for online discourse to check for any common issues users are experiencing. Myself and other reviewers often don’t have the luxury of using products for long periods of time, so we can sometimes miss chronic issues that the general public will end up having some way down the line. This isn’t always possible, of course, as we’re often testing products before or just after launch.
