After months of anticipation, Sony have officially launched their much hyped Playstation Pulse Elite Headset. It’s a product the Japanese electronics giant expects to revolutionise the video gaming audio landscape with, and, if early reviews are anything to go by, they look to be the business (for gaming, not necessarily everything else).
The PlayStation Pulse Elite is not just an ordinary headset, representing a significant step forward in Sony’s gaming peripherals, introducing the brand’s proprietary wireless connection, PlayStation Link. This innovation is important for seamless connectivity with the PlayStation Portal handheld device, making the Pulse Elite and the Pulse Explore earbuds the primary wireless companions in the PlayStation gaming ecosystem.
The Pulse Elite boasts several standout features, including lossless audio, a retractable mic, and AI-enhanced noise rejection technology capable of filtering out background noises. These features are indicative of Sony’s commitment to providing a premium audio experience, while the inclusion of a hanger for convenient storage and charging are both thoughtful design considerations.
Perhaps most intriguing is the introduction of custom-designed planar magnetic drivers, a first for PlayStation audio devices. This technology, typically found in premium headphones used by professional sound engineers, promises an audiophile-level listening experience that could set the Pulse Elite apart from competitors.
Priced at $239, the Pulse Elite now available at retailers Australia wide. Shop now at the links below.
