Airpod Max for PC gaming

[eclipse01]

Hello,

just wondering how these are for use as a PC gaming headphones? Is there lag with just standard audio?

I'm assuming the mic feature would show some lag, but i'm more concerned about just using for single player experiences.

In my limited usage of this type, I really enjoyed them -- but -- I was using them wired

I use them exclusively for my gaming PC, and wireless. I haven’t noticed any lag. I did disable the mic though because otherwise the headphones don’t work properly with Windows and default to very low quality.

I used them on Windows playing single player Doom 2016 and stuff like that and it worked like a charm.

i only have the Pros, but i assume the lag should be similar simply because of nature of Bluetooth.
It should be fine for normal gaming to not really notice the lag, but unless they provide options to compensate for the lag, rhythm games are borderline unplayable because you're hearing everything way too late.

BlueTooth always has a lag. System like AppleTV compensate for it. But it might vary with the game application.
You can use them wired.
