If you're looking to purchase something in the middle these are a great option
I had used the PlayStation exclusive headphones for the PS4 and PS5, and at the end of that journey I'm quite disappointed. Both pairs made my ears uncomfortable after having worn them for maybe 30 minutes. They would always cut out whether the dongle was plugged into the back of the PlayStation or into the front. I know that Sony's pretty good about updating their firmware so there shouldn't have been any issues in that regard. I spent so long asking people and reading through reviews until I finally settled upon these. So far I'm not disappointed! The ones that are labeled for Xbox are $50 cheaper than the ones labeled for PlayStation, and they're the exact same thing. And the "Xbox" branded ones are compatible with PlayStation, Switch, PC, and mobile. They can also switch to Bluetooth mode if you don't want to use the dongle, and the sound quality for music using my phone was actually pretty decent for middle of the road. The retractable microphone and alleged up to 60 hours of battery life makes the fact that they're lightweight even better. And the most important part, they're comfortable. They adjust to accommodate most head sizes I would assume. These gaming headphones are a great recommendation from me! I did read one review where somebody complained about the mic quality. After doing a mic test on my PlayStation I haven't had any complaints from people that I've spoken to. Decent quality, design, and volume control

Amazing headphones! Definitely worth it
These Bluetooth and 2.4 wireless headphones are excellent for gaming. The sound quality is clear and immersive, with no noticeable lag when using the 2.4 wireless mode. Setup was quick and easy, and switching between Bluetooth and wireless is super convenient. They’re comfortable for long gaming sessions, the connection is stable, and the battery life has been solid so far. For the price, these headphones deliver great performance and versatility. Definitely a great choice for gamers.

Great, budget friendly headset for many uses.
So far, so good in the past few months. Pretty comfortable, adjustable headband inside of the main band. Clear audio, feedback loop microphone audio (known as sidetone in the comm world), and a lot better than paying $250 Plus for a certain beach turtle that puts such cheap plastic that the headband snaps off. I have not had a problem with these things mixing up my audio unlike the other brand, either, so you will have a USB, corded dongle. Cool thing about these is that they do Bluetooth to your phone simultaneously while 2.4 gigahertz channel to your game system. You can switch between the two, answer calls and hang up. I have not messed with the equalizer settings but I read there are some preset and your own custom equalizer to mess with. I have not because I'm just using it for game chat anyway. I would not suggest expecting super high fidelity audio, but it is crystal clear at this time. The ear cups are comfortable. I also like the fact that mic is on a flexible boom that can be touched back into the left earpiece. There is a push button mute and the microphone itself lights up with a red LED when it's muted. Overall, this has been a better purchase than the other one I was talked into that didn't last a year at a $250 price tag at that. Good luck getting one of those fixed, by the way. 🤷 This one has been a great alternative in our recommend it at this time. Plus, read the reviews online and decide for yourself. This is a very budget-friendly option compared to many out there with a good balance of features.

Almost Perfect
I received a PS5 as a Christmas gift from my wife and wanted a nice pair of wireless headphones to go with it. After a TON of research and not caring that wired are "typically" the way to go for the best audio experience, I kept seeing mentions and likes for the Nova 5's. I thought it was odd that the 7's kept getting "worse" reviews (still great...just not as good) than the 5's...and the 5's are much cheaper, so I bit the bullet and ordered a pair. Out of the box the set up and the app download was super easy. It was a pain to figure out how to update the firmware (do some research on it but essentially you have to plug in BOTH the dongle and headphones into the computer at once). Once I figured it out it was easy to update the firmware and check out the app. I really only messed with the mobile app (Iphone) and it was cool to check out the different sound/gaming presets you could choose from. As far as the sound goes; It's great. Deep thumping base (for the most part), high mids and good highs. I'm not an audiophile by any means, but I know great sound compared to bad. These are great. Not excellent, but unless you want to drop another $150-200 for the 7's, these are perfect. The noise cancellation is great too; I have to take them off to talk to my wife - can't hear her at all lol. For comfort; they are super comfortable out of the box. I did opt to get cooling gel ear pad replacements, but the stock ones on these are perfectly fine. Very comfortable and I wear glasses - no issues there. Connectivity - for the most part is great. No issues with connecting to my phone or my PS5. The sound will start to cut out if I walk into another room with multiple walls between me and the console, but that's to be expected. What I'm not the biggest fan of (hence the one star deduction) are the random pops/interference I hear occasionally when I'm playing. The console is probably 10ft from my seat with no interference at all, and it still happens sometimes. Not enough for me to want to return them, but enough that it can be annoying sometimes. Again, it doesn't happen all the time, but even if I'm playing for an hour it will happen once or twice. I initially started with a white pair (returned for black) and the same thing happened with them. Unsure if it's interference from another bluetooth device somewhere or my router? All in all I recommend these. They are a little pricey, but once you make the next bump from the $30-40 pair, these are highly worth it. Sound, quality, battery life, comfort -- all great!

Mon fils l'utilise tout les jours et apprécie sa qualité. C'est un jeune adulte aux études qui vit sous son casque 😉

The headset itself is of good quality with no issues of product. The headset is also only suitable for those with a smaller head. The main issue is with the support that comes with the steelseries app which is needed to update the headset. The app simply doesn't work as of the time of this review.

Długo trzyma bateria. Dźwięk bardzo dobry. Brak możliwości aktualizacji słuchawek na Linuksie. Żeby je zaktualizować muszę to robić na komputerach z Windowsem

It is a pretty good headphone. It came with no problems at all and was not used before.
