Best Gaming Headset For Playstation 5

Looking for a headset that will be compatible with Sony's PS5 can be very difficult, but there have been some awesome releases this year that have been better than their predecessors with crystal clear audio, limited latency, and perfect compatibility. Here's a list of the six best headsets for the PlayStation 5.

 
6. Sony Inzone H9 Wireless

 
The new Inzone H9 headset is absolutely bursting with features. The H9s utilize PS5 Tempest 3D audio to its full brilliance, with omnidirectional spatial audio capable of differentiating a hierarchy of game sounds. The proprietary dual sensor noise-canceling technology features an ambient sound mode that equalizes the sound stage depending on context.
 
This is also Sony's longest-lasting headset battery yet, with a 32-hour battery charge. Yes, the price point is very high for the inzone H9s and the durability is yet to be proven considering its recency, but this is an optimal headset Taylor made for the PS5.

5. Astro Game A50 Wireless 

It has features like low latency, wireless technology, and a broadcast-quality mic, which makes the price tag of $300 inarguable. It's high-resolution Dolby surround sound, which is used as a wide sound stage for a closed-back headset for better dynamic range compared to many of its competitors.
 
It also has command-station software allowing for custom EQ parameters in case you don't like the default audio.

4. Razer Black Shark V2 Pro Wireless 

It has a reasonable $200 price tag and also features rich offerings and good quality. Anyone who has used this product has witnessed the headset's noise-canceling abilities. The cardiod mic is also great, bringing 360-degree movement and an ultra-focused pickup because of the foam. 
 
The audio drivers are coated with grated titanium, allowing strong low-mid-high audio clarity. This headset would be higher if not for some reports about poor durability after the warranty period ends.

3. The BeyerDynamic MMX 200

The audio masters from Germany also made some of the most impressive gaming headsets out there. 
 
The sound clarity doesn't get much better than this, and even though this is closed back, the sound stage is tremendous. 
I use biodynamic headphones for just about every application myself, and the things have lasted almost a decade so far with hardly any wear on the cups.
 
These MMX 300s use the same durable aluminum construction as their other products and are likely to outlast every headset on this list.
 
This is also my pick for the most comfortable headset. The lightweight and premium cup pads give the illusion that you're not even wearing anything; however, there's an asterisk. The cable is long and cumbersome, and if you rough it up, it isn't replaceable. 

2. Steel Series Arctis Nova 7P

The top two headsets both come from the Steel Series line, and for good reason. These Nova 7P's are the more affordable of the group, but this still maintains much of the benefits of the Nova Pro. The 360° spatial audio is top-notch, and the PS5 compatibility with Tempest 3D is excellent.
 
You can customize EQ sound settings through the sonar software, allowing for game-specific tin band parametric sound adjustments. 
 
The battery life is longer than most headsets, averaging around 38 hours before needing a charge.

 
1. Steel Series Arcus Nova Pro Wireless

The Arctis Nova Pro delivers everything you could want in a PS5 gaming headset. This premium headset includes all the 360-degree spatial audio finesse of the Nova 7P and more.
 
You can hot swap between batteries, so you're never left waiting for a charge, and the dual audio connection is great. If you want to multitask simultaneously, instead of the airweave foam the Nova 7p uses, the Nova Pro utilizes a new vegan leather memory foam material that combines comfort and durability. You might think such a feature-rich headset would be heavy, but this is actually lighter than the Nova 7P at only 294 grams. The combination of all these features, plus the customizable audio and 360° Tempest 3D audio, makes this the most attractive PS5 headset available today.
