Overall after 9 months of use, I am very happy with this headset taking into consideration the retail price and quality of the product.What's in the boxPS4 Gold HeadsetUSB (type-A to micro-B) charging cable3.5mm audio cableWireless USB adaptor for PS4, PC and Mac.The GoodLightweight with solid build quality7.1 Surround sound with 3D Audio when used with VREasy to pick up and play with great adjustability & lack of wires8 Hours of battery lifeThe BadRequires a USB Wifi dongle for wireless PS4 connectivityBecome uncomfortable around the ears after roughly 2 hours of useWifi dongle does not work very well with PCSound QualityThe sound quality is excellent for the price with balanced audio levels and fantastic virtual surround sound making it great for use in VR or shooting games such as fortnite or Apex. You can very clearly hear where bullets or footsteps may be coming from and that has helped tremendously with my recent games of Apex.With the companion app found on the PlayStation store, you can change the EQ settings for the headset and save preset sound modes on the headset. So if you play one genre much more heavily, for example, shooting games, you can tweak things for an even more enhanced experience.In regards to the surround sound effect, you only get virtual surround sound when using these headphones with VR or wirelessly with the PS4. If you use the 3.5mm jack with any other device this is only a stereo 2.0 headset.If you use these for music or movies they are good enough for the average user but don't expect to be blown away. I would have liked slightly more bass and depth for my own personal music tastes but I appreciate these are designed for games.ComfortThese headphones have mechanically adjustable ear cups that clicks with each adjustment. They also stretch very easily without feeling like they will break so should accommodate all head sizes including when using them with the PlayStation VR headset.The ear cups are a soft leather material and do sit comfortably over the ears. Sadly though after around 2 hours of use, they do start to irritate around my ears and become uncomfortable.MicrophoneI have played in party chat on both PS4 and Xbox One with this headset and no one has ever had a problem hearing me talk and I am told I come through clear without distortion or breaking up. I also like the fact there is not a microphone wire in my face getting in the way, it makes these a very easy pick up and play headset to talk to people.Battery LifeSony estimate around 8 hours of battery life from this headset. This is something I would agree with, I don't play for very long gaming sessions anymore but rarely need to recharge it and have never completely run out of battery during a session unexpectedly. Similar to the PS4 controller, the PS4 will let you know when your headset battery is low which is helpful.Build QualityThe build quality is very good, the headset is light but can be stretched and adjusted without worrying they are going to snap or break. The earcups have a soft foam padding that so far after almost 1 year of use do not show signs of becoming worn out.Please Note - Even though Sony advertise that the WIFI dongle also works with PC I would personally disagree. It does work and connects to my Windows PC without any problem but I had a major issue where I could not adjust the volume and the base volume was too quiet for my personal taste. This bug i could not find a fix for.
