The NEW 2018 Sony Playstation Gold Wireless Headset REVIEW

[@Aaron-tc5gq]

One problem with the mic is you can't rub it or breath heavily into it and make other players go deaf

We had a 1st gen Echo in our master bathroom for listening to music in the morning kzbin.infoUgkxABghAEkaIDGZfHRBH3D3rBrlraNmnC71 and while in the shower. I didn't realize how tinny and awful the sound output on the original Echo was until we replaced it with the Studio. It was a sonic upgrade far beyond what I was expecting. Just wow. I love it because it's like having speakers IN the shower. My friend likes it because the music is so loud that she can no longer hear me singing. So that's a win-win.

[@mattyork7625]

It depends on what settings you use. Under moderate settings on medium volume without using enhancements it's about 8 hours. Other settings kill the battery life faster. It's right in the manual

[@iamtyzed]

Matt York yeah if you use the second mode it use more battery

[@codenameuniccorn2412]

For sure doesn’t get 8-10hrs if your gaming non stop you could maybe get 4 but that’s a stretch. Still love these headphones I’ve never had anyone complain about my mic.

I’m so mad, I got this headset without knowing how bad the mic quality is. Wish I had seen this vid before I bought. I mean for $80 you’d think it would be good quality

[@gamesps9562]

If you really care about mic quality that much, why didn't you looked for a headset that has, you know... visible, physically touchable mic, instead of built-in mic. Be mad at yourself.

[@GrichkaBogdanofff]

GamesPS 98 did you not read my comment? Im clearly blaming myself for my lack of research......

[@gamesps9562]

@@GrichkaBogdanofff But u say for $80 dollars you expect quality mic. You can easily tell it has no visible mic. Even if it's $200 if you don't see the mic, don't expect great mic quality. It's not lack of research, it's lack of basic technology knowledge.

[@GrichkaBogdanofff]

GamesPS 98 I had another sony headset that cost me $80 dollars as well and it had a great mic. And no plenty of other headsets with integrated mics have good quality, it’s the placement of it that muffles it a bit

[@GrichkaBogdanofff]

GamesPS 98 and for $80 it’s not unreasonable to expect a better mic, especially from Sony

[@adamplexgaming1076]

I see that they removed those cheap hinges. They always broke because they were plastic hinges with metal poles through them. After a few months (sometimes weeks), the hinges would become cracked with hairline fractures, and then eventually completely fall out. It was cheap manufacturing that could've been easily solved by making both the hinges metal instead of plastic but Sony was likely too cheap to make a revision and removed it entirely with this model. I can't say it's a bad thing, honestly bc if they were never going to fix it, its best they removed it.

[@OfficialGamesky]

Adamplex Gaming very true

[@film_magician]

I find the mic on the old PS4 Gold headset to be more than fine. I actually have to turn down my headset when other people are using the old one. I can hear them clear and more than loud enough. So if the mic is the same or a bit better than the old ones, that's a non issue. People in game don't sound like how he sounded in this video - which is weird. Also they're noise cancelling. So when your getting yelled at in the background or you dog is going nuts no one else can hear it. Just ordered these, can't wait to break em in and do a review

[@Pupyzinho]

they're OK, but if you're trying not to wake up people like me, it's bad.

[@jacklr8557]

My mic quality for the ps4 wireless headset isnt that good for me

[@JinTaizen]

It really sucks they didn't improve the microphone but it seems like the headband part is more durable than the previous version. I can't let go of the VSS that Playstation does, so I need to stick with one of these latest PS headsets and the new Gold version seems good enough. Thanks for making a review!

[@OfficialGamesky]

No problem, aside from the mic the headset as a whole is a nice upgrade

[@sobversion3]

should've been $80 like the OG was dropped to since they didn't bump the mic quality

[@luqmanr]

IIRC if you use the headphone wired through the ds4, the mic will sound better.

[@sobversion3]

^i noticed this w/ the Gold as well; audio becomes clearer too

[@kubacakagoomba]

[@mjmj4099]

Do these work on ps3 as well?

[@NuttyTerm]

Well I have this headset and it’s hard for my friends to hear me, and if I turn the microphone level up it sounds like I’m far away from my microphone

[@LynxKM.]

Its because you have it on backwards i know what your talking about the side with all the buttons on goes on the left side

[@welshtony1]

Thank you for this video, My original PS4 Gold headset randomly just snapped on my yesterday so iv been looking around at a new pair, your is by far the best video on this headset I have come across and the microphone doesn't bother me since I use a XLR AT2020 while gaming. Since the audio is just as good with the bonus of better build quality I think I will be buying a pair of these. p.s. You gained a new sub :)

[@innesjack6170]

I want to buy these, just to hear the game sounds. I don't really care about the chat function, i just want to put my tv on mute and still hear all the actual game sound in the headset. Would you recommend this headset?

@Anime4 Mii Looks really good. Really good sound, wireless long range, even the mic is pretty good but nothing special. It can go wired and wireless with USB, but has no bluetooth. Works for PC and Playstation 4, but not for Xbox One. It costs €160, but i this i will go for it. Thanks alot!

[@albaroux]

I get that build quality is important but let’s be honest; if your headset breaks, it’s because you’re not careful with it. I don’t know about you but I take care of the things I buy, and I use them all the time. I still have my classic gold headset (that I bought on sale for 60) from a couple years ago and they still sound amazing. My only qualm is that Sony keeps using that stupid dongle technology to make the headphones wireless (and at that, proprietary).

[@canes3b92]
