Which PlayStation Headset Should You Buy For Your PlayStation! 

This is a great review! I would like to share some anecdotal experiences with ALL three (should pin this comment to help with future viewers😀) : I will start off by saying right off the bat that the PS4 Platinum is superior to both. I first had the Gold headset and it was fine, nothing to complain about but then I upgraded to the Platinum headset and noticed a HUGE difference right off the rip. Once you enable the VSS/3D audio by a flick of the switch, your game will sound better and more realistic no matter what game it is and the VSS aspect works WONDERS in shooters making it easy to locate where shots and especially where footsteps are coming from. That is the main reason why they’re better because the VSS/3D are a massive upgrade and since the drivers from the Platinum are bigger, the sound just sounds better not because I “think” it does, because it actually does. So the Gold headset works very well and sounds good if you don’t wanna fork up more money. Now comparing those to the PS5 Pulse 3D, I still think the PS4 Platinums are clear. Even though homeboy says the ps5 designed ones are better for the ps5, I’d like to respectfully disagree (because at the time he posted the video this next information/update wasn’t a thing). This is because the PS5 had an update to have any headset you use utilize it’s 3D audio with any headset within the audio settings, the Platinums can use it’s VSS/3D audio as intended AND while having bigger drivers, it sounds better and more clear than the pulse 3D. I also did tests comparing the Platinum vs the Pulse 3D and the platinums do a better job while in vss/3D audio mode because they don’t sound muffled whereas the Pulse 3d do (ok maybe not “muffled” per se, but definitely not as good as the Platinums when both are in the vss/3D audio setting). So since the ps5 update in September 2021, the PS4 Platinum headset are better to use on the PS5 than the actual PS5 designed headset. In conclusion, if you CAN afford the PS4 Platinum headset you definitely should as they sound the best and will now perform the best out of these three ( and honestly in my experience better than the Astro a40s and 50s). Better vss/3D, better build quality, bigger drivers for better sound, can be folded to take on the go with the included pouch to connect to phone or laptop for a decent sounding music headset (since Sony is also great at making speakers and headset specifically for music) it’s a no brainer.

after 2 years im still using the platinum for pc and playstation its one of the best 7.1 headsets i have ever used highly recommended

I STILL use the OG gold wireless headset(uncharted edition) and it STILL sounds amazing to me. Even more so with the 3D audio implementation.

Imo the Platinum are the best, I have all 3, the Pulse 3D are a great choice for those who don’t want to spend $200 for a headset. If you have the money, the platinum is the better choice they sound better and feel really good.

Thank you so much for your review! This video needs more views you did a great job and breaking everything down!

This video doesn't really give me the information i need to decide which to buy, as it's mostly your subjective opinion. What's 7.1 virtual audio compared to 3d audio? Do the pulse 3d one's carry over all of the functionality of the platinum wireless? Can you make adjustments for either/both in the console? What games support 3d audio currently? Do so games support 7.1 virtual surround? If the game doesn't have 3d audio, does the 3d audio features of the new headset mimic the virtual 7.1?

Nice informarions dude i chose the platinum keep going 💎🖤

Nice video dude a really detailed one

I would definitely go for the Platnium again for the PS5 i tried astro a50 razer nari ultimate theyre all good and nice but there is something about them that is unique 😍😍

Bty the platum fits perfectly with vr.

Nice review, i already own the ps 4 Gold headset and would like to know how they really compare soundwise when used on ps 5. Would it be worth the upgrade? Or is the difference minor enough to save the money.

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? 🙏🏻

platinum and pulse 3d is same headset but different built both headset capable to produce 3D audio that make you can tell if enemy on top or below (not all games but uncharted 4 i confirmed) pick what more comfortable for your head

You failed to talk about the gold and platinum headset companion app which makes the gold and especially the platinum sound so much better sounding. I prefer the Platinum for sure.

I really wish you Showed the Mic Quality On each Headset, Which one would you say sounds the best when Talking to Friends Online?

Quality of 3D audio : pulse vs platinum?

which one is better for pc ? btw, here the platinum is cheaper

I've had the platinums for a while now and have loved them. Though I recently got a PS5 so should I get the pulse 3d or should I stick with the platinums?

You fail to mention that the pulse 3d audio only works on ps5 whereas the platinums support 3d audio on certain games. So if you're on ps4 platinums are the best option. Plus the platinums have bigger drivers than the pulse 3d headset

I have the new Gold Headphones the 2nd generation ones with 3D audio, I been using it with my PS5 and the 3D sound sounds amazing only issue I have is well streaming my voice is to low! Even raising the volume on the PS5 settings it’s still way to low but when I use the 3mm wire and not the Bluetooth you can hear me fine but I lose the 3D audio. Was wondering if the PS5 Pulse headphones 🎧 work good well streaming especially well on Bluetooth.

should have mentioned that VSS/3d on the platinum does not work on ps5

Thank you so much for making such a nice & informative video!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Can any of these be used wired to controller or console?

For ps4... Pulse3d, is better? or platinum?!

Platinum headset is better to hear footsteps?

Does the new 2018 model works with PS3 slim?

Which has the best bass?

does the platinum work on ps3?

is the gold works on ps3 ? i need headset for my ps3

How much you made for this review?

Wait, do they platinums have 3D audio on PS5?
