Glorious GHS InfinitePlay review
Glorious, known for gaming peripherals like keyboards and mice, has launched the GHS InfinitePlay, a wireless gaming headset priced at $230. Following its first wired headset, the GHS Eternal, the InfinitePlay justifies its higher price with a standout feature: a fast and seamless hot-swappable battery system that keeps the headset functional during battery swaps.
The InfinitePlay competes favorably against wireless headsets priced around $400, offering superior battery-swapping speed and convenience. Glorious has refined a concept popularized by SteelSeries, which pioneered rechargeable swappable batteries in gaming headsets. However, the InfinitePlay achieves faster and more intuitive swapping at a significantly lower price point, demonstrating the company’s ability to translate its peripherals expertise into the headset category.
Designed for versatility, the headset targets multiple use cases including competitive gaming, casual FPS play, everyday music listening, and portable use. Its balanced sound profile supports this multi-purpose approach. The swappable battery system addresses a longstanding pain point for wireless headset users—the need to tether devices to a PC for charging—making it a practical innovation rather than merely marketing-focused.
The InfinitePlay represents Glorious’s strategic expansion into audio peripherals while maintaining its reputation for build quality and functional design. The headset’s strong value proposition at $230 suggests the company has successfully entered a competitive market segment.
