Pros

• Looks great and matches the PS5 aesthetic.

• On board sidetone adjustment.
• Lots of connectivity options.
• Plush earcups.
• Straightforward software.
• One of the most comfortable headsets we've tested.
• Dongle sits flush with phone.
• Excellent sound quality.

Cons

• Micro USB lead (not USB-C).
• No 3.5mm cable included.

• Mic quality is very disappointing.

KitGuru says: This could possibly be the most comfortable headset we have ever tested. The completely floating design feels excellent after long hours of use, the cushioned cups are great and the audio quality is superb for music and gaming. It's just a shame the microphone quality is as poor as it is.
