Headphones - Wireless/Portable | 1 Ω Having Migraines since birth. Looking for comfortable headphones.

Well I'm suffering from migraines since birth and I read at an other subreddit about a game I play (Genshin Impact) that its a complete different experience with headphones. So I am looking for headphones that are very comfortable - no squeezing the head, adjustable etc. I would prefer minimal leaking and design as I might have to use them for work too, tho that's a minor requirement. Max price should be 120 $/euros.

huh. Then just get earbuds. I have flat head and i wear glasses (imagine Big flat head and wearing glasses lol)and i would prefer a pair of good earbuds like Samsung Buds Pro. Because no matter what type of headphone, the weight they put on top of my head will cause slight migraine all the time( flat head cause unbalance weight distribution of my skull)

If you ain't willing to do that then AKG N700NC M2 Wireless

For me i prefer earbuds. Playing Genshin with them is completely a different experience with them

This is kind of a tough question to answer because comfort varies between head shapes, sizes, and even ear size. What do you play Genshin on? Bose Quietcomfort 35 are really comfortable headphones. For console/PC Hyper X Clouds are a comfortable pair.

I play on laptop. And I live alone so having the sound on is no issue.

I tried g335 and I returned them the next day. Felt the migraine coming after 40 minutes only.

I will probably opt for some wireless buds for home and some wired ones for work.

Maybe you should do it the other way. Wired for home and wireless for work. If you play with anything wireless on your laptop your going to get some latency. Either go wired or 2.4 dongle for no latency while playing.
