SONY Wireless Stereo Headset

Pros: Very good sound. I was very surprised at the sound quality, even for it only being stereo sound. It sounds like surround. Yes, I do have the virtual surround off. I only want to play with these on.

Very comfortable. Can play for hours with little to no discomfort.

It has seperate controls for chat audio, which is nice. Also you can go into the XMB and turn off the mic independantly.

Cons: Not really any. I wish the battery would last all day. I get between 4- 6 hrs of battery life

Other Thoughts: I was on the fence about this for a while. I was worried about the lack of Surround and the rather low price. I do not regret it for a second. I bought these elsewhere but I wanted to share my thoughts and hope it may help whomever may be in the same boat. Good buy!

Pros: They're comfy

Cons: Battery life is absolutely HORRID. 2 Hours average just watching video. Nevermind trying to use the microphone (which is situated so far from your face you practically have to shout to be heard.)

Also, note - NO CHARGING cable is included in the box, so if your buying these just to use them with your PC.. better also buy a charging cable as well. (Typical Sony.)

Other Thoughts: Quite simply NOT worth the ridiculous $99 price tag (+$15 for the charging cable.)

Skip these.

Pros: I use these for PC gaming, and I've had very little problems with them.

Very cheap for it's quality. Came with a free copy of Doom for PS3 which I sold to best buy for $50 store credit. So the headset pretty much only cost $30. A steal!

Very comfortable. I wear these for 6-8+ hour gaming sessions and usually most headsets will begin to get uncomfortable, but these are far beyond most.

They cancel out noise enough to where I can't hear my wife anymore:)

Cons: Sometimes, like others are saying, it just loses connection for like 5 seconds and then connects back again like nothing happened.

Did not come with a USB charging cable, but you can buy one for like 5$.

The whole top piece and sides are enormous. They kinda look ridiculous, but I'm not trying to impress anyone.

Other Thoughts: I was torn between this or a Turtle Beach, I'm very glad I went with this headset!

I can go about 20 feet away from the USB receiver and still stay connected. (Works through walls!)

Pros: Amazing sound, very clear voice chat, easy to install

Cons: short battery life, not for hardcore gamers, confusing battery recharge, cost isn't worth it's battery life

Other Thoughts: It would be great if I was a casual gamer or only wanted to listen to a few hours of music at a time

Pros: Good Headset nice sound and wireless

Cons: I lost the usb. Absolutely no one sells replacement USB adapters for this headset, not even Sony. I called Sony's 800 number and they suggested I buy another headset. Do yourself a favor and buy a different headset. Now I'm stuck with a $90 paper weight

Pros: See previous review - Causes Lag on Madden13.

Cons: I wanted to give a 2nd review of the problems I was having using my headset with Madden 13 online. To recap. I would get serious lag or even kicked from the online EA server when I played Madden 13 online with the Sony wireless headset. After researching the problem, I found out that the problem is when the wireless headset is used with your wireless ps3 controller, competing interference can occur when using a wireless network. Not everyone gets this problem, but many do as I did. It is a well know problem and Sony does indicate it as a potential problem. See Other Thoughts for the solution.

Other Thoughts: I updated my rating from 2 stars to 4 since I was able to find a solution to the problem. I had to buy a usb dongle with a 3+ foot extension so that the usb dongle for the wireless signal from the headset was not so close to the wireless signal for the controller at the front of my ps3. For about $10 I was able to find a 4 foot extension dongle at a local electronics store. Now, I can play online without any problems!!!!!

Pros: It's wireless. Has awsome surround soud!!!

Cons: uses USB rather than Bluetooth for wireless communication. For some reason, this headset causes Madden 13 to lag when I play online. It's so bad, I get kicked with server error messages.

Thise was a big waste for me as I bought this headset to play Madden 13 with my best friend who lives 1200 miles away!!! Real bummer.

Not sure if this item is defective.

Other Thoughts: Not sure if this headset is defective or my problem is in all of this models headsets. Would like to know if others have the same problem.

Pros: All I can saw is wow, this brings an all new experience to gaming. I play a lot of BF3 and you can hear everything, amazing sound detail you would never have noticed with out a headset, sound much better than my denon AVR ans surround, I'm sold, going all geek with gaming, its worth, it, wish I would have bought a headset years ago.

Cons: The top part of the headset that goes over you head is like 2" wide, really, does it need to be this wide? I'm not big on the styling and the overall construction, seems a little cheap for what Sony had this originally selling for, I would expect something better for $100. Takes 3 hours to charge if completely dead, that a long time, out of the box it took roughly 90 minutes to completely charge, box says you''ll get 7 hours of playtime when fully charged.

Your wife is going to make fun of you, but its worth it.

Other Thoughts: I purchased an open box from next egg, so far it's great. And I'm happy with the purchase, at the price I paid, if I were to have paid the going rate which is now $80, and it was going for over $100, I would look at other models before making a purchase. If your on the fence about a full headset, I had to get one as I would usually play with the volume all the way down, when my kids were around, because of the language, and I wasn't getting the full effect of the game, but again, all I can say is wow, if you don't get the sony, get a turtle beach, or what ever, it will changing your way of gaming.

Pros: Great head phone for pc and ps3, have some nice sound.

Cons: doesn't work with xbox 360, and it's a bit pricesi, there are other cheaper head phone.

Pros: Awesome sound
Very comfortable
Wireless is great
Great price
Great battery life
Can use on PC

This is a great headset. I've owned a few pair of Turtle Beach PX-21s, and they busted in a matter of weeks. This headset has lasted me for well over a year. If I get the time to game for hours at a time, I can easily keep these on without any irritation or annoyance. They're very lightweight and fit very comfortable. You can even adjust the game volume or the voice volume. I use this on my PS3 and my PC for PC gaming. Everything about this headset is awesome.

Cons: Only con is that for a few weeks when using it, the wireless would interfere heavily with my wireless connection. I would be playing a game, and I would get kicked off the PSN. I looked up this problem, and people were saying the easiest solution is to plug the USB portion in a USB extension cable, which luckily, I actually had. Once I used that, I never had the problem again.

Other Thoughts: In all, this headset is perfect for gaming or for use on the PC. Highly recommended.
