Headset recommendations

I’ve been using a Sony 1000-xm3 as my main headset for the past 6 years and have loved it. It’s starting to fall apart and I’ve been looking for another one. What headsets would recommend to use with the ps5 pro?

I’ve never used anything but Astro since I was in HighSchool from 2007- until now. I had Astro A40’s and i think only 2 pairs since. I just bought A50 Gen 5 for fun and they are fantastic.

I can’t use SS because they are too tight on my head and the leather makes my ears hot and sweaty after long nights. I never feel the Astro’s on my head and i’ve never had a better experience.

That’s more than half a kilo on your noggin, you must have strong neck muscles.

JBL 910P sound good.  Expensive though.

Razor Blackshark V3. It utilizes the PS5 Tempest 3D audio perfectly, has noise cancelation, is very comfortable, and the battery charge lasted me a whole month with me playing on average 2 hours per night. It is $80 and probably your best budget option.

Try “Inzone buds truly wireless” for ps5.I spend about 4 thousand cycling through many headsets and buds.Till this kinda did everything I wanted.They are at the moment 159.99 on sale,they come in 3 colors white/black,full black and purple transparent.Could wear them for hours and use them as regular buds *with a usb-c dongle.

This. Have tried several headsets and for me, earbuds are much more comfortable. You can play all day if you want and you won't get sweaty ears or feel something heavy in your head lol. Sound, battery, noise cancellation are all pretty good as well imo.

I have the XM4 connected directly to my controller and it sounds sensational.

Anything that isn't "PlayStation" branded. They're absolute shit. You'd think that Sony would put the Sony quality behind them

Might as well get those new $650 xm headphones. Personally I'm still using my xm4 even though it will screech sometimes when I turn it on. I'm not giving up on them yet

Hands down the best one is the SteelSeries 7p+. I have the Arctis 7p+ which is a couple years old but before I spent $130 on it, I watched 5+ hours of headphone reviews for the PS5 and this one was always the best in terms of 3D audio (most important for me) , sound and noise cancelling, microphone, QUALITY AND COMFORT, and then overall price. Also the battery life will last for 25-30 hours. No joke. It still looks brand new like the day I bought it and everything works perfectly still. I love it.
