At least putting some of these controls on the other ear cup would have been helpful. All of these are good functions to have, but it's a lot to remember and recognize by the tips of your fingers. There's even the useful mic monitoring button so you can hear yourself if preferred. Also back there is a master volume rocker, and the mixer between in-game audio and party chat. There's the microphone mute button, which pops out slightly so you can feel when it's engaged as it sits flush to the headphone. Everything is positioned on the back of your left ear cup, and grouped tightly together, which leads to some required memorization of which button does what by muscle memory. The length of your gaming sessions will be determined by the battery life, and in our testing the promised 12 hour life was pretty close to the truth, after fully charging it via the USB Type-C port.Įven after using the headset for a number of days or weeks, it will take time to learn its controls. Because of the leather-like material and on-ear design, some fans may find it to be hot after extended use. On the other hand, less adjustable parts means less movable components that can break overtime - though it is still all made of plastic. This also means that initially, there will be a break-in period for the headset to stretch out and adjust to the shape of your head, so the first few hours and days it may feel tight.
One thing we can agree on is that because there are no adjustable features, it will be a clear answer whether you find it comfortable or not. So while we can say that the PULSE 3D Headset is decently comfortable, that may not be the case for others. When it comes to comfort, any item that must be worn – such as a headset or earbuds – will have varying degrees of comfort depending on the user, your body features, and personal preferences. The dimensions are fairly typical, at 190 x 213 x 91 mm, and the headset doesn’t feel very heavy, at 0.3kg. The ear cups are made of a sort of leather-like material, and time will tell how much longevity it has against wear and tear. This approach is quite reminiscent of the design that the Steelseries Arctis headsets use, though in those products the headbands are adjustable. The design features no movable parts, and instead there's just an elastic headband strap that allows for some flexibility and automatic fit adjustment based on your head. Sony was smart to ensure that the shape of the headset allows it to fit very well overtop of the PS VR headset. The headset again does a good job of looking slick and matching the PS5 console design, with a black and white color scheme, and smooth design curves. It's a pretty standard retail package, and the price is competitive with other mid to high-end gaming oriented headsets on the market. Inside the retail pack you will find the headset itself, the wireless adapter, a USB cable, and an analog audio cable. It comes in a clean package that is very much in style with the PS5's box. The PULSE 3D Wireless Headset retails for $100 USD / $130 CAD.
