The Stealth Pro is a premium device from the outset. Throw in active noise cancellation, a nifty hot-swappable battery system, and dual-Bluetooth connectivity and you've got yourself a stunning piece of headwear. Moving away from the plastic mid-range days of yore, the latest Turtle Beach headset does everything the Max can do and more. We previously rated the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max as the best PS5 headset for multi-platform use. The results are awesome, and it is absolutely one of the best PS5 headsets - and it's at an aggressive price point too! There's a reason that this is the official headset, and we can see from our testing and hands-on that Sony invested in it. However, it is in the quieter moments that the Pulse 3D headset and the PS5's Tempest audio magic really blew us away: spaceships zoom past your head in Astro, or footsteps' exact direction of travel being discernible in Miles Morales. Underneath the stylish frame, however, you'll find all the necessary tech to immerse yourself in the PS5's Tempest 3D AudioTech, with the Pulse 3D headset being the best way to get the most from your new console's audio. The headset delivers gloriously rich and detailed sound as you traverse Astro Playroom's noisy noisy platforms, and gives multi-layered audio detail in the roar of combat in Miles Morales.

Sharing the same design language and aesthetic that the PS5 and its accessories have, the Pulse 3D headset maintains a subtlety in its form - there's no extruding boom mic, and all the tech is discreetly hidden - this is the first major impression we got in testing.Īfter hours of Miles and Astro, I'm happy to report that my ears are never on fire or begging for release from their new PlayStation prison. Sony's official PS5 headset is, unsurprisingly, a top performer and has consistently been one of our favourites. Read more: Razer Kaira Pro for PlayStation review We found that the mic could be better despite extensive testing with my friends saying I was a bit tinny and thin sounding, but this isn't too much of a detractor on what is an exceptional PS5 wireless headset. Then you'll 'just' be treated to the Kaira Pro's excellent audio quality that really does a brilliant job from the deepest of booms to the highest-pitch notes. The haptics only requires the existence of audio frequency to work which is impressive, but we found the one drawback wit this to be that your teammates and friends speaking to you will also set them off which is a little annoying - perhaps the next generation of haptics will be able to tell between in-game audio to enhance and chat audio to ignore.īut when the haptics in the Kaira Pro teamed up with a DualSense, our gaming experience was taken to a different place and made for a truly exciting ride and immersive experience (you can turn them off if that's not your bag).

The rumble of gunfire is particularly immersive, and when you turn the haptics up to their full power, it really is something else to behold. The inclusion of this blew us away in our testing and makes this Razer headset standout as a a set that will add and enhance immersion. One of the biggest selling points to us, however, is the inclusion of Razer's newest haptic feedback tech. The headset shares a lot with the Kaira range generally that we saw rolled out for Xbox prior to the PlayStation range, and, as a result, looks similar, while maintaining a white and black colourway to match the console. If you're looking for one of the latest and greatest from one of the best in your hunt for a PS5 headset then we can absolutely recommend the Razer Kaira Pro for PlayStation as a terrific choice. Yes, the Kaira X for PlayStation is a wired headset and this is a big reason that this is a budget option, but it's a braided cord, has a strong right-angle connection, and is the ideal length for having enough slack but without being overly long.įor the price and as a simple wired headset, we can't recommend this excellent Razer PS5 headset enough.

The mic is solid but doesn't quite have the warmth and overall richness to more premium headsets. What's more, the mix and surround sound revealed themselves to be pretty great to us too for this price point.

In our testing we found the sound quality provided by Razer's TriForce 50mm drivers within the headset to be predictably excellent and uncompromising - full bass, rich middles, and tight, exquisite highs. Launching with an 'X' variant like the Barracuda means it's not the full-blown premium Kaira for PlayStation that we get first but the Kaira X for PlayStation is still a worthy contender for those looking for great sound for the $60 / £60 mark - which is exceptional value in our eyes.Īnd this point is a key factor in what makes this headset great: the value is really excellent, and the bang for buck is great. Razer's first PS5 headset is a solid one.
