In order not to miss a single rustle or sound during the gameplay, many users prefer to use headphones instead of speakers, since this does not interfere with other family members from doing their own thing, and the player himself is better immersed in the events presented on the screen. As for the headphones for the PlayStation 5 game console, here, in addition to high-quality sound, many pay attention to the convenience and design of the accessory. In this top, 5 models of headphones are selected that meet all of the above parameters.
Sony Pulse 3D

Specifications:
- Connectivity: wireless and wired
- Connection type: Radio and USB plug
- Construction: Closed Headphones
- Audio system: support stereo + 7.1
- Built-in microphone: Yes
- Connector: mini-jack 3.5 mm – 1 pc, USB type-C – 1 pc
- Detachable cable: Yes
- Range: up to 10 m
- Power supply: Built-in rechargeable battery, operating time up to 13.5 hours.
The first and most obvious choice is the Pulse 3D headset recommended by the console manufacturer. Sony even claims that this is the only correct choice, because the headphones take full advantage of the programmed surround sound in the PS5 software.
Pulse 3D has a contemporary styling that matches the shape and color of the console. At the same time, there is the possibility of wireless operation. The headphones have volume controls (main, in-game) that can be controlled using the controller buttons. Despite all the advantages, the Pulse 3D headset will not be suitable for players with large ears – the round inner part of the ear cushions does not cover the entire ear.
SteelSeries Arctis 7P
Specifications:
- Connectivity: Wireless (Wi-Fi) and Wired
- Headphone Construction: Closed
- Diaphragm diameter: 40mm
- Headphone frequency response: 20 ~ 20,000Hz
- Resistance: 32 ohm
- Sensitivity: 98dB
- Audio system: stereo 2.0
- Built-in microphone: Yes
- Connector: mini-jack 3.5 mm – 1 pc, Micro USB – 1 pc
- Detachable cable: Yes
- Range: up to 12 m
- Power supply: built-in battery, working time up to 24 hours.
The SteelSeries Arctis 7P headset offers a high level of comfort. The earpads are soft, breathable and fit perfectly to the shape of your ears. It is worth noting that the color scheme of the headphones matches the color of the console perfectly, and if you change the logo on the PS5, you might think that they come bundled with the console. In addition, the earbuds are capable of battery life for a long time, have a foldable design and a decent range when using Wi-Fi.
Logitech G Pro X
Specifications:
- Connectivity: Wired
- Headphone Construction: Closed
- Diaphragm diameter: 50mm
- Headphone frequency response: 20 ~ 20,000Hz
- Resistance: 35 ohm
- Sensitivity: 92dB
- Audio system: stereo +7.1
- Built-in microphone: Yes
- Detachable microphone: Yes
- Connector: mini-jack 3.5 mm – 1 pc.
- Cable length: 2.0m
The Logitech G Pro X will take our freedom by limiting us to two meters of wire if we don’t use a headphone extension cord. However, this disadvantage is covered by high sound quality, and in particular, low frequencies. Here we are dealing with a larger diaphragm, 5 cm in diameter, and therefore a wider frequency response and more expressive lows. It’s worth noting that the full potential of sound can only be realized by connecting the headphones directly to the PS5 via the included sound card.
Asus ROG Delta
Specifications:
- Connectivity: Wired
- Headphone Construction: Closed
- Diaphragm diameter: 50mm
- Frequency Response: 20 ~ 40,000Hz
- Resistance: 32 ohm
- Sensitivity: 127dB
- Audio system: stereo + 7.1
- Built-in microphone: Yes
- Connector: USB type-C – 1 pc
- Cable length: 1.5m
ROG Delta is a kind of Lamborghini among headphones. And while people with an ear for music may disagree, in the field of games, they do their part better than many other sets. The Asus developers clearly wanted to stand out from the competition, offering, in addition to a high-quality audio system, an ergonomic headphone shape. D-shaped pads are designed to help you forget about any inconvenience. Personalization includes two types of material – eco-leather and fabric.
The manufacturer boasts high fidelity of sounds in terms of clarity and directional accuracy. The Hi-Fi system of the ESS 9218 Quad-DAC is responsible for this, which also affects the noise-to-loudness ratio of 127 dB. And, do not forget about many beloved RGB lighting. There is no dedicated app on the PS5, but the standard rainbow mode can be used.
Astro A10
Specifications:
- Connectivity: Wired
- Headphone construction: closed
- Diaphragm diameter: 40mm
- Frequency Response: 20 ~ 20,000Hz
- Resistance: 32 ohm
- Sensitivity: 104dB
- Audio system: stereo 2.0
- Built-in microphone: Yes
- Connector: mini-jack 3.5 mm – 1 pc.
- Cable length: 2.0m
The Astro A10 headset on this list can stand out for its budget price. The set comes in several colors, so you can choose the headphones to match the color of your console or PC. The accessory is distinguished by genuine comfort, as evidenced by the reviews of many gamers. Its advantage is also its high resistance to damage.
In terms of sound quality, the headset handles all kinds of effects in games and movies, while delivering surround sound as well. And, although any stereo headphones can offer such opportunities, this is quite enough for a pleasant game.
