I’ll ready had the gold headset for the PS4, but still wanted to try this one. The bad, STILL needs the USB dongle in order for the headset to work, for the 3D audio there’s is no need for the headset, you can still make the 3D audio with a regular wire headset connected to the controller. The good, it’s very comfortable, better than the gold, the audio quality is excellent, premium (obviously better than a headset connected to the controller). The battery life is good 4-5hrs play for 3 days on a row, then it needs to be recharged. Overall still a premium purchase, better than the gold and for its price a quality headset, there are more out in the market at a higher price.

I never thought I’d say this but the 3D audio engine Sony built is better than ATMOS. I will say this, if you plan to play call of duty Cold War you better have this headset! It gives you such an advantage being being able to hear footsteps on different floors and on different surfaces. This headset is extremely comfortable it doesn’t block all the surrounding noise from your environment which I actually appreciate because noise canceling headphones kind of give me claustrophobia and make me feel stuffy.
I do wish the ear cups were a little bit bigger for people that have bigger ears. My ear tends to “crunch” a touch on the top of the cup just a bit.

The sound quality is exceptional and the microphone transmits clear as can be. It covers pretty much every feature I would want in this kind of headset. The buttons are well placed and easy to navigate (even without looking or removing the headset). The battery life is also wildly good. My only complaint is that this particular form factor starts to hurt my ears/head if I don't reposition it fairly often (also I have experienced the dreaded head dent before). But that's likely the case with most over-the-ear setups.

Had these for some time now to really use them in the sound quality is just exceptional! There is no background noise cancellation, so if you’re using it on PlayStation, they can hear every little drop of water in the background but the 360 listening part is very nice! Also, love the design and how they look and that they don’t have the long microphone part like most gaming headphones do. Very sleek design. I love these headphones, but do wish they had background noise cancellation, especially being how expensive they are.

These are awesome. I gave my bestfriend a pair for Christmas. After he took them home he messaged me to tell me about his experiance at 2am. He could hear birds flaping and flying in the sky. Waves crashing on the beach. He could hear things he never knew were in the game he has played for years. He was experiencing an old game like it was his first time playing it with all the new sounds he could hear with high quality. I gave him a pair because I have them too. Easy to use. All buttons and mute switch are easy to work. Comfortable and keep out most noise while playing. For the great quality and price they get a solid 10 on my book.

Well first BestBuy shipping did a horrible job with shipping as my box is extremely dented. Second did a low frequency sound test from 160hz down to 20hz and these headphones are really hitting that mid base. It's not like a paid of beats where you just have that bass drop. Mic quality is average. They fit very comfortably on your head. Wireless sound output is horrible compared to having your 3.5mm jack in. Doing a test on 3D audio performance it was really well. If you want to test this there are some good YouTube 3D quality pieces on their with millions of views. Yes you could always spend more and get some better headphones over this but for $100 it will get the job done for you.

It gets the job done. The 3D audio is really good especially if you are into shooters. It increased my kdr on Cold War and I am reaaaally bad at shooters. You can hear exactly where the enemy is walking and it is pretty cool. If you are sensitive to sounds though, I wouldn’t recommend it because explosions are constantly going off in your ear. It admittedly gave me anxiety because of that but I luckily got used to it. An issue for people with small heads is that it is uncomfortable to wear because it doesn’t fit properly and you can’t adjust it to fit tighter. I can’t wear it long at all without it hurting my ears. Other than that it is okay. It has some noise cancellation which was a nice surprise

These headphones work seamlessly with the PS5. Audio is crisp and loud. They are also comfortable and very pleasing to the eyes. I would recommend these.

Sony Pulse 3D Wireless Headset review: Perfectly matched for PS5Is Sony's own gaming headset worth popping on your wishlist for the next time it appears on sale?
A:AnswerYou can get 3D sound from any headset (so long as it is compatible with the PS5 in general, either via USB dongle or 3.5mm jack into the controller) or speaker system. The 3D audio is a software feature on the PS5, not specific to any hardware. Note, the effect will work best and most consistently with headphones.
A:AnswerYes. You just have to plug the USB dongle provided with your headset into an empty USB slot in your PC and it should work instantly. Basically it's plug and play.
