I compare the PlayStation five pulse 3-D wireless headsets to the PlayStation for platinum wireless headset technically they can both work on either the PS4 or PS5
All my friends say it sounds like ass when I use it on ps5 tho man it’s weird and for some reason they can hear their own echo, I’ve tested it myself by talking through it on PS5 and listening on PS4 and for sun reason it sounds like the mic is covered or sum. Can you help me out or know what I can do?
Please help me... Now! I am gonna buy a headset for my ps4, which one is good? , platinum or Pulse3d?! (i don't care about that price) Which is the best for ps4? 🙏🏻
@@M.FarzadB I would say platinum is good...I like the build better than the plastic headsets... But that's just me. I couldn't really tell the difference in the 3d noise thing... Maybe my hearing is just going... Wear ear protection when going to concerts.
The old PS4 Gold Headset (it’s called a headset) sounds fine for video games and movies and the 3D audio works as well as the PS4 Platinum Headset but the Platinum Headset does have superior sound quality over the Gold Headset as the Platinum Headset has 50mm drivers vs. the Gold Headset’s 40mm drivers but the sound quality is good on both headsets for games and video. There is a noticeable difference with the Platinum Headset having a more detailed, clearer sound and the bass is definitely heavier. My main problem with the Gold headset is the wireless connection is not near as stable and seems to not reach as far as the Platinum headset. Like I could turn my head away from the tv and it would lose connection on the Gold Headset. I could have a faulty dongle for my Gold Headset but it really is annoying. It’s a shame because the Gold Headset really does sound good for a being a base model and is more comfortable than the Platinum Headset IMO but that wireless connection is awful. Also both of them should not be used as stereo headphones for music as they both do not perform well in that area (despite what the advertisement says) so don’t expect to be blown away by using them for music but the 3D audio truly enhances games and you can hear details that you wouldn’t notice when playing without them. I was kind of taken back when so many people thought that 3D audio was this revolutionary thing for PS5 when we have had it for years on PS4 but my assumption is that Sony will really push it for PS5 and hopefully developers will support it more widely than on PS4. What I mean by that is all games do support 3D audio on PS4 but most of them are reliant on a uniform pre-set audio mode whereas only a handful of titles like Red Redemption II had custom audio modes developed by Rockstar specifically for that game. God of War is another example of having a custom audio mode and it truly is fantastic. So that’s what I mean by developers supporting the Pulse 3D with custom audio for most games of not all games. It seems like Sony is really trying to push this again so hopefully that comes to pass because 3D audio is truly a game enhancer and it’s to closest thing I can imagine to what it would be like playing a game in a theater would sound like. Also they both have a built in mic that perform well enough but not as clear as a headset with a boom mic. I will also note that Steel Series makes some amazing headsets for both PS4 and Xbox One that are just as good if not better in sound quality but they are pricier so I guess you get what you pay for when it comes to headsets (and most other things). On the side note I will mention for XBoxOne owners that XBox does have brand name headset but it is wired and does not feature 3D Audio although it sounds surprisingly well for how cheap it is (I got mine for like $50 at Best Buy) but know it is only capable of stereo audio. If you want something close to 3D audio then you need to get a Steel Series set like the Arctis 9x (which is a fantastic headset I should note) or the Razer Thresher or Razer Nari, the latter featuring haptics so it’s like having Rumble in a headset. I can’t imagine I would tolerate haptics for longer gaming sessions so I went with the Razer Thresher which is basically the Nari without haptics. They are both pricey options though but they both offer a 3D audio-like or should I say, spatial audio experience. So that is my long take on my experience with last-gen headsets that offer spatial audio. I just wanted to let people know that it’s not something new being done for PS5 only and people with a PS4 or XBoxOne can experience the same thing being touted as revolutionary for PS5. Apple just released spatial audio support for their AirPod Pros and with that so many people think it’s this new revolutionary thing that Apple invented but it’s been around for awhile now. There is even an official Sony Gold Headset for PS3 that offers 3D audio which I would like to get my hands on eventually before I can’t find them anymore but as you can tell I’m already broke from the numerous headsets I have accumulated so far. 😜

On this side, the PS4 and the XOne were a regression after the big jump with the PS3 / X360.

@@TheRandomVaper You understand how software works? It requires support from the headphones.

The pulse would be what I would recommend on a budget, but don't just throw out your old headset to get them because like you said they will work fine. For higher end I would say get 7.1 surround sound like the platinums or any other preferred headset. You can hear the difference on the platinums if you use 3d audio or not. They have a switch to turn it on and off. If it had nothing to do with the headsets software then that switch would do absolutely nothing.

Obviously the switch is affecting the audio output which would mean it is being controlled by the headset. It is not like that switch is deciding what information is sent from the playstation. It decides what information it interprets. One person can have it on while the other has it off on the same console. If it was from the console only the platinums could not have a switch to turn it on or off.
@@Bradley_Warren Its on there because they were made for the ps4, and the ps4 didn't have the Tempest 3d audio engine or any similar tech. Ill say it again. You can get 3d audio from any old pair of headphones that you can connect to the ps5 because of the Tempest engine in the console
@@thomaswilkinson4863 To me it sounds just as good maybe a little better but i’m not sure cause i never hear the differences. I even would say buy the Platinum instead of the Pulse also bc of material is better on Platinum.
@@thomaswilkinson4863 Yup you can hear everything from PS4 games and PS5 games and party chat. You can still control game sound and party chat sound separated from each other. (Srry bad English i’m Dutch)
I been thinking about this too bro. I hope Sony gives the platinum's the PS5 upgraded companion app soon. It doesn't make sense they haven't already done this because the platinum headset already have true 7.1 VSS 3D encoders built within the headset! The platinum's BANG BRUH!!!
The platinum headset is definitely superior in sound and quality over the 3D pulse by leaps n bounds. The platinum's are for serious audiophiles. The sound is incredible!
Nice impressions. The Platinums are a bit different. In that they have 50mm drivers vs 40mm on the Pulse 3D & PS4 Golds. Also they are the only Headphones to work with 3D audio on the PS4 (even if it's only 4 or 5 games), as well as supporting 7.1 VSS on PS4 (which the old Golds did). The Pulse 3D is just a stereo headset because the PS5 does all the Tempest 3D encoding for any headphones over USB or the 3.5mm Dual Sense audio jack. My guess is the Pulse 3D is the old PS4 Gold headset but with the updated look and no VSS encoding for PS4. The Platinum should be a better headset, due to supporting VSS/3D on PS4 and the larger 50mm drivers which have more bass and clarity. And will work with PS5. One possible advantage for the newer headset is Sony has designed those 5 HRTF Profiles with the Pulse in mind. But I think better headphones should be more noticeable than the 3D audio profiles. Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on both once hooked up to the PS5.
@@Junior-rz2gx The Pulse 3D are generally getting good reviews so it depends on use case, i.e. if your Platinum's need replacing or the new headset is more comfortable. That said I have seen the odd comment from people preferring the Pulse 3D to the Platinum but it's hard to say if that's a placebo effect or not. It really needs some trusted reviewers to compare the two although in theory the Platinum's have the superior internals.
@@Junior-rz2gx Np and thanks. I don't have the Pulse 3D or PS5 yet, although I have the Platinums. Reviews have been pretty positive on the Pulse 3D and therefore there could well be refinements in the headset vs. the Gold/Plats. That said the Platinums were definitely a more refined experience when compared to the Golds.
The pulse 3D headset is replacing the Gold Wireless headset...both are $100. The pulse 3d headphones also don’t offer 3D audio on PS4. The pulse 3D headphones features are for PS5, the 3D audio will work on any set of headphones, not just these, it’s a system feature not headphone feature for PS5. Sony has said any headphones will take advantage of the 3D features on PS5. So if you are still using ps4 I would stick with platinum headphones. There is no companion app for these headphones on PS5. I would do just a little more research bro, it’s out there. They definitely don’t offer the same features, that’s why the Platinums are $150 - $160 retail
It will blow your damm eardrums out bro. Especially if you tweak the sound settings on the platinum's. The bass will rumble your eardrums if you tweak the bass too low but its clean af. Mids n highs are superior compared to the 3d pulse. The price speaks for itself bruh. They still $150!
I got the pulse 3D like 5days ago and had the platinum for 3 years before that the mic is the same I will say the audio on the pulse is slightly better not like by a mile but you will notice it the build quality is better for the platinum though I feel like I need to be gentle with the pulse. The ps exclusive headset app only works for the pulse and if you are getting them for the same price hands down you take the pulse BUT if you already have the platinum you 100% do not need the pulse if I was right on money I would regret getting the pulse you aren’t really gaining much
@@dequariuswalker4739 forgot I put this comment,I have no idea bro but the pulse has survived so far and I have enjoyed it the whole time I now highly recommend it after months of hardcore gaming.
@@oskah1102 yea I have them since release but I was making sure I wasn't missing out since there is no app for them and it is a cheap build unlike the platinums
Had the platinums after the gold's. Platinums later me like 5yrs excellent sound loud af at $200-$140. The pulse 3D's don't sound as good but they are $99. Might just go back. Also they are made for the ps5 .
I already had the platinum headset and wife got me the pulse 3d for fathers day. Was excited to try them out only to be quickly disappointed. The pulse 3d had an immediate muffled sound where as my platinums are crystal clear. Did anyone else have this problem?
nice review of the materials, I also have a Platinum Headset and i'm not sure if i'll buy the pulse because of the poor material. i'll be waiting for the next sound review with the ps5 or ps4
It's 7.1 (7 point 1) not 7:1 (7 to 1) It's not a ratio, it means 7 regular sources and 1 sub woofer source. Also its silver, gold & platinum for ps4 headsets. Not bronze. 🙄🙄🙄 And the app is still on ps4 but the pulse 3d headset is not on the app yet.
The size comparison between folded platinum and the flexible pulse 3D headphones had very little difference in size. This review was too early, being that you couldn’t fully compare them ended up wasting my time in the future by watching this.
Your comment didn't age well bro. Lol jk but he was right. The platinum's are still superior in every way. You realize the plats have built in 7.1 VSS 3D encoders right?? Yeah....nothing more to say. My work is done here. ✌❗
Just bought the ps5 for my son for Xmas. I want to get him a really good head set. Should I go with pulse or platinum? Or a 3rd party manufacturer? If so, which brand and model. I'm not a gamer, don't know the differences. Thanks
Im not the one who made this video but I would highly recommend the platinums, its adjustable, it comes with a carrying bag and it has a metal band so it wont be fragile compared to the PS5 ones which are made out of plastic. But I do believe that the PS5 headsets are cheaper than the PS4’s platinum headset so if you are looking for a cheaper price, then the PS5 headset are your choice.
The PS5 headsets don't have 3d sound tech inside the headset because the PS5 processes that internally the on its own, that has to be turned on in settings. The pulse has spacial direction tracking unlike the platinum has a 3d sounds that, for example programmed sound from the right will aways be from the right ear, but the pulse can actually maintain a 3d spacial location regardless of head movement But using the pulse on the PS4 is just like using cheap headsets
Just broke my ps4 gold headset, I also just got myself a playstation 5 so I need a new headset. Platinum or pulse? I like the fact the pulse matches the console and has USB C which is important to me because I hate having to use a different charger for my headset when the controller takes USB C and my phone take USB C so I'm leaning towards the pulse. Any objections?
I have 2 pairs of gold headsets and am weary of trying the ps5 variant. one I took immaculate care of while using (ps 20th edition) and the pleather would come apart and I eventually boxed it up to find it look like I chucked it across the house several times because of the plastic degrading. the other was the 70$ gold and I had to throw it against the wall and snap it back together to get it to work properly (something was wrong with it cutting out and sounding trash out of the box) haven't had any problems since tho lol.
In my opinion Pulse 3D is the worst headset to date, so uncomfortable. I have platinums and I had golds and both of them better than this pulse 3d shit. I cant believe i spent £89 for them.
I have the platinum for my vr and after putting over the vr a bunch of times eventually both sides broke where they're meant to collapse. I taped them up and they still work fine but the design was bad for putting over the vr
I have the platinum one I don't Know if I should upgrade it because the platinum is not comfortable when I play along time what do you think is there a big difference how comfortable is the new one?
Please help me... Now! I am gonna buy a headset for my ps4, which one is good? , platinum or Pulse3d?! (i don't care about that price) Which is the best for ps4? 🙏🏻
Great review. Do you have and update up yet? Since currently platinums are half off here and pulse 3d are sold out until next year and I NEED a headset...
@@M.FarzadB yo should buy the platinum. Because on that headsets you can choose any presets, and the quality of sound is better on platinum because they have 50 mm drivers (pulse 3D - 40 mm)
@Prince Smith Non its not , platinum headset is over 200$ you idiot , pulse is a goodheadset for the price but feel cheap as fuck compare to platinum ! dont be stupid get your facts befote talking you compare a 200$ vs a 99$ product
@Prince Smith it isn't durable at all. Even if it's sliightly more refined that never would make it a worth upgrade, unless he has money to shoot the skies.
Oyy veyyy. The Sony platinum is wireless, not wired. You should know what you're talking about before publishing your videos. Absolutely horrible review imo.
I appriciate the video but how is this a review if you haven't tested the Pulse 3D on your PS4 yet. The whole reason I came here. BUT...yes once it's broke...IT'S NEVER TIGHT AGAIN!!! lmfao
Yes you can, they're working just perfectly for me and games sound amazing, I beat Miles Morales and I had no complaints with the headset. I don't think its worth it to go out and spend $100 asap on the Pulse 3D Headset. If you can afford them and want them badly go for it tho.
I personally dont find the top rubber too comfortable, its a bit hard/stiff, and the earcups are nice but after a few hours of wear my left ear starts to hurt
@@sickathanyoav88 Not really. I couldn’t really pick up the 3D audio on the Platinum when play PS5 games whereas the 3D Pulse I could. I think it’s because it’s specifically designed for the PS5.

Dose it sound as good as it was in the ps4 and dose it sound good when playing PS4 games on PS4 sorry for the questions just need to find out
@@thomaswilkinson4863 To me it sounds just as good maybe a little better but i’m not sure cause i never hear the differences.
I even would say buy the Platinum instead of the Pulse also bc of material is better on Platinum.
@@LadySamurai88 okay thank u dose it sound good when playing PS4 games when on the ps5
@@thomaswilkinson4863 Yup you can hear everything from PS4 games and PS5 games and party chat. You can still control game sound and party chat sound separated from each other.

@@LadySamurai88 okay thank u soooooo much very appreciate it
Will Sony update the platinum's app for the ps5? I really enjoyed the extra bass profile on my ps4.
I been thinking about this too bro. I hope Sony gives the platinum's the PS5 upgraded companion app soon. It doesn't make sense they haven't already done this because the platinum headset already have true 7.1 VSS 3D encoders built within the headset! The platinum's BANG BRUH!!!
The platinum headset is definitely superior in sound and quality over the 3D pulse by leaps n bounds. The platinum's are for serious audiophiles. The sound is incredible!
They’re even better than possibly steel series
Nice impressions. The Platinums are a bit different. In that they have 50mm drivers vs 40mm on the Pulse 3D & PS4 Golds. Also they are the only Headphones to work with 3D audio on the PS4 (even if it's only 4 or 5 games), as well as supporting 7.1 VSS on PS4 (which the old Golds did). The Pulse 3D is just a stereo headset because the PS5 does all the Tempest 3D encoding for any headphones over USB or the 3.5mm Dual Sense audio jack. My guess is the Pulse 3D is the old PS4 Gold headset but with the updated look and no VSS encoding for PS4.
The Platinum should be a better headset, due to supporting VSS/3D on PS4 and the larger 50mm drivers which have more bass and clarity. And will work with PS5. One possible advantage for the newer headset is Sony has designed those 5 HRTF Profiles with the Pulse in mind. But I think better headphones should be more noticeable than the 3D audio profiles.
Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on both once hooked up to the PS5.
I have the platinum and recently bought the pulse 3D. Thinking I should just cancel the order rn.
@@Junior-rz2gx The Pulse 3D are generally getting good reviews so it depends on use case, i.e. if your Platinum's need replacing or the new headset is more comfortable. That said I have seen the odd comment from people preferring the Pulse 3D to the Platinum but it's hard to say if that's a placebo effect or not. It really needs some trusted reviewers to compare the two although in theory the Platinum's have the superior internals.
@@Digfox thank you for your honest thoughts!!!
@@Junior-rz2gx Np and thanks. I don't have the Pulse 3D or PS5 yet, although I have the Platinums. Reviews have been pretty positive on the Pulse 3D and therefore there could well be refinements in the headset vs. the Gold/Plats. That said the Platinums were definitely a more refined experience when compared to the Golds.
The pulse 3D headset is replacing the Gold Wireless headset...both are $100. The pulse 3d headphones also don’t offer 3D audio on PS4. The pulse 3D headphones features are for PS5, the 3D audio will work on any set of headphones, not just these, it’s a system feature not headphone feature for PS5. Sony has said any headphones will take advantage of the 3D features on PS5. So if you are still using ps4 I would stick with platinum headphones. There is no companion app for these headphones on PS5. I would do just a little more research bro, it’s out there. They definitely don’t offer the same features, that’s why the Platinums are
$150 - $160 retail
Pulse 3D just isn't loud enough, even at max. How's the volume level on the Platinums?
It will blow your damm eardrums out bro. Especially if you tweak the sound settings on the platinum's. The bass will rumble your eardrums if you tweak the bass too low but its clean af. Mids n highs are superior compared to the 3d pulse. The price speaks for itself bruh. They still $150!
I got the pulse 3D like 5days ago and had the platinum for 3 years before that the mic is the same I will say the audio on the pulse is slightly better not like by a mile but you will notice it the build quality is better for the platinum though I feel like I need to be gentle with the pulse. The ps exclusive headset app only works for the pulse and if you are getting them for the same price hands down you take the pulse BUT if you already have the platinum you 100% do not need the pulse if I was right on money I would regret getting the pulse you aren’t really gaining much
Wait they update the app for the pulse 3d?
@@dequariuswalker4739 forgot I put this comment,I have no idea bro but the pulse has survived so far and I have enjoyed it the whole time I now highly recommend it after months of hardcore gaming.
@@oskah1102 yea I have them since release but I was making sure I wasn't missing out since there is no app for them and it is a cheap build unlike the platinums
@@dequariuswalker4739 I ended up just using the platinums wired on my pc still holds up great vs your average headset

Had the platinums after the gold's. Platinums later me like 5yrs excellent sound loud af at $200-$140. The pulse 3D's don't sound as good but they are $99. Might just go back. Also they are made for the ps5 .
I already had the platinum headset and wife got me the pulse 3d for fathers day. Was excited to try them out only to be quickly disappointed. The pulse 3d had an immediate muffled sound where as my platinums are crystal clear. Did anyone else have this problem?

Puls or platinum?!! Which one works nice on ps4?!
@@M.FarzadB platinum
@@M.FarzadB the platinum's bruh...hands down. Don't even debate with yourself bro. The quality and quality of sound is superior over the 3d pulse
I got mine 2 years ago and they still working fine the sound quality is to good. You can hear every little detail. It’s insane good.
Thanks, fellow Canuck! I was about to pull the trigger on that Pulse headset to go with my PS5, but you convinced me to stick to my good ol' Plats.
I hope so,I love my plats to
nice review of the materials, I also have a Platinum Headset and i'm not sure if i'll buy the pulse because of the poor material. i'll be waiting for the next sound review with the ps5 or ps4
the pulse are hands down better sound like zero question. i have both and can say the pulse’s are a better overall headset
Trust me. The Pulse 3D headset does NOT feel cheap. If anything, my old Platinum headset felt cheap after a bit of use.
Liars the both of you. That plastic feels terribly cheap and the sound nowhere near as robust as the Plats.
It's 7.1 (7 point 1) not 7:1 (7 to 1)
It's not a ratio, it means 7 regular sources and 1 sub woofer source.
Also its silver, gold & platinum for ps4 headsets. Not bronze. 🙄🙄🙄
And the app is still on ps4 but the pulse 3d headset is not on the app yet.
The size comparison between folded platinum and the flexible pulse 3D headphones had very little difference in size. This review was too early, being that you couldn’t fully compare them ended up wasting my time in the future by watching this.
Your comment didn't age well bro. Lol jk but he was right. The platinum's are still superior in every way. You realize the plats have built in 7.1 VSS 3D encoders right?? Yeah....nothing more to say. My work is done here. ✌❗
“I don’t know what it’s called…”
The original playstation golds. Mine broke there the first time I put them on.
Are the earcups similar? Do they give the same amount of room for your ear to fit?
Seems like the platinums still edge out the pulse, nice review
Just bought the ps5 for my son for Xmas. I want to get him a really good head set. Should I go with pulse or platinum? Or a 3rd party manufacturer? If so, which brand and model. I'm not a gamer, don't know the differences. Thanks
Im not the one who made this video but I would highly recommend the platinums, its adjustable, it comes with a carrying bag and it has a metal band so it wont be fragile compared to the PS5 ones which are made out of plastic. But I do believe that the PS5 headsets are cheaper than the PS4’s platinum headset so if you are looking for a cheaper price, then the PS5 headset are your choice.
The PS5 headsets don't have 3d sound tech inside the headset because the PS5 processes that internally the on its own, that has to be turned on in settings. The pulse has spacial direction tracking unlike the platinum has a 3d sounds that, for example programmed sound from the right will aways be from the right ear, but the pulse can actually maintain a 3d spacial location regardless of head movement
But using the pulse on the PS4 is just like using cheap headsets
Thanks, dude. This was helpful.
Just broke my ps4 gold headset, I also just got myself a playstation 5 so I need a new headset. Platinum or pulse? I like the fact the pulse matches the console and has USB C which is important to me because I hate having to use a different charger for my headset when the controller takes USB C and my phone take USB C so I'm leaning towards the pulse. Any objections?
the platinum headset has a better build quality & the pulse has better sound.
I have 2 pairs of gold headsets and am weary of trying the ps5 variant. one I took immaculate care of while using (ps 20th edition) and the pleather would come apart and I eventually boxed it up to find it look like I chucked it across the house several times because of the plastic degrading. the other was the 70$ gold and I had to throw it against the wall and snap it back together to get it to work properly (something was wrong with it cutting out and sounding trash out of the box) haven't had any problems since tho lol.
There isn't an app for the pulse 3D headset
In my opinion Pulse 3D is the worst headset to date, so uncomfortable. I have platinums and I had golds and both of them better than this pulse 3d shit. I cant believe i spent £89 for them.
I had the Silver headset and they were so comfortable, them it snapped. Yeah with the ps4 headsets being plastic, I'd rather pay extra for the metal.
So guys help me here if possible, i have platinum, i should not buy the pulse 3d because its not worth it and not better, right!? Thank you!
I have the platinum for my vr and after putting over the vr a bunch of times eventually both sides broke where they're meant to collapse. I taped them up and they still work fine but the design was bad for putting over the vr
How are the news ones 100$ cheaper then the platinum that came out over 5 years ago
In terms of audio quality, do you think it's worth the upgrade if I already have the platinum headset?

The old PS4 Gold Headset (it’s called a headset) sounds fine for video games and movies and the 3D audio works as well as the PS4 Platinum Headset but the Platinum Headset does have superior sound quality over the Gold Headset as the Platinum Headset has 50mm drivers vs. the Gold Headset’s 40mm drivers but the sound quality is good on both headsets for games and video. There is a noticeable difference with the Platinum Headset having a more detailed, clearer sound and the bass is definitely heavier. My main problem with the Gold headset is the wireless connection is not near as stable and seems to not reach as far as the Platinum headset. Like I could turn my head away from the tv and it would lose connection on the Gold Headset. I could have a faulty dongle for my Gold Headset but it really is annoying. It’s a shame because the Gold Headset really does sound good for a being a base model and is more comfortable than the Platinum Headset IMO but that wireless connection is awful. Also both of them should not be used as stereo headphones for music as they both do not perform well in that area (despite what the advertisement says) so don’t expect to be blown away by using them for music but the 3D audio truly enhances games and you can hear details that you wouldn’t notice when playing without them.
I was kind of taken back when so many people thought that 3D audio was this revolutionary thing for PS5 when we have had it for years on PS4 but my assumption is that Sony will really push it for PS5 and hopefully developers will support it more widely than on PS4. What I mean by that is all games do support 3D audio on PS4 but most of them are reliant on a uniform pre-set audio mode whereas only a handful of titles like Red Redemption II had custom audio modes developed by Rockstar specifically for that game. God of War is another example of having a custom audio mode and it truly is fantastic. So that’s what I mean by developers supporting the Pulse 3D with custom audio for most games of not all games. It seems like Sony is really trying to push this again so hopefully that comes to pass because 3D audio is truly a game enhancer and it’s to closest thing I can imagine to what it would be like playing a game in a theater would sound like. Also they both have a built in mic that perform well enough but not as clear as a headset with a boom mic. I will also note that Steel Series makes some amazing headsets for both PS4 and Xbox One that are just as good if not better in sound quality but they are pricier so I guess you get what you pay for when it comes to headsets (and most other things).
On the side note I will mention for XBoxOne owners that XBox does have brand name headset but it is wired and does not feature 3D Audio although it sounds surprisingly well for how cheap it is (I got mine for like $50 at Best Buy) but know it is only capable of stereo audio. If you want something close to 3D audio then you need to get a Steel Series set like the Arctis 9x (which is a fantastic headset I should note) or the Razer Thresher or Razer Nari, the latter featuring haptics so it’s like having Rumble in a headset. I can’t imagine I would tolerate haptics for longer gaming sessions so I went with the Razer Thresher which is basically the Nari without haptics. They are both pricey options though but they both offer a 3D audio-like or should I say, spatial audio experience.
So that is my long take on my experience with last-gen headsets that offer spatial audio. I just wanted to let people know that it’s not something new being done for PS5 only and people with a PS4 or XBoxOne can experience the same thing being touted as revolutionary for PS5.
Apple just released spatial audio support for their AirPod Pros and with that so many people think it’s this new revolutionary thing that Apple invented but it’s been around for awhile now. There is even an official Sony Gold Headset for PS3 that offers 3D audio which I would like to get my hands on eventually before I can’t find them anymore but as you can tell I’m already broke from the numerous headsets I have accumulated so far. 😜
