10 Best Gaming Headsets for PS4 & PS5 2024 | UK Gaming Blogger Reviewed

Our top pick is the HyperX Cloud Revolver, which offers a cinematic soundscape. This not only creates the perfect atmosphere but it'll even have you hearing sounds that you've never noticed before in the game! If you play FPS games, this will be particularly handy when you're trying to detect the location of your enemies. 

This product also has a completely detachable microphone which is clear and easy for your teammates to hear. Best of all, it works with pretty much any console you can imagine - so whichever game you fancy playing, it'll have you covered. 

We think it's fair to say that SteelSeries could easily charge double the price for this headset and people would pay it, it's that good! It's extremely comfortable thanks to its intuitive suspension headband that allows for even weight distribution, as well as the AirWeave cans that'll keep your ears cool even when playing for hours.

Additionally, it has fully customisable EQ settings that give you complete control over how you want everything to sound. Then, there's the ClearCast microphone which is widely recognised as one of the best on the market. Lastly, the precise speakers are engineered to ensure ultra-low distortion, making the audio impeccable.

This memory foam covered headset by Corsair provides the ultimate comfort for your ears, as well as blocking out any pesky background noises. Plus, it has a completely detachable microphone, allowing you to use it as a simple pair of headphones too. 

Most importantly, this product has excellent sound and is built with good quality, durable materials - especially considering the budget-friendly price. It's sure to last you a long time!

The most important thing to note about the Stealth 700 is that it's designed with glasses-wearing gamers in mind. Using "ProSpecs" technology, it provides a slight groove where the frame of your specs can easily fit. It's even customisable with a little lever, so the headset can accommodate a whole range of frames! 

This product also has noise cancellation, so you won't find yourself getting distracted when it comes to crunch time. The ultra-clear microphone and the ability to modify the in-game sounds to your liking make it a really user-friendly headset too.

If you're looking to feel like you're in the game then this headset will be right up your street. It offers haptic feedback, which provides vibrations similar to that of a controller. Most importantly though, it uses in-game cues to determine the strength of these vibrations and make them feel realistic.

Best of all, you can use this headset both wired and wireless. If you choose wireless, you can enjoy up to 24 hours of playtime after charging. The headset also uses cooling gel infused cushions for comfort during those long sessions, and indented channels for glasses.

This Kraken headset is super lightweight at only 250g, and for under £50, it's not too heavy on the budget either! This is a wired headset, but offers amazing surround sound, which emphasises the accurate positional audio. They also have custom-tuned 40mm drivers and a punchy bass.

This headset is also a lot slimmer than some of the others on our list, making them easier to wear out and about if you choose to do so, however, the mic isn't detractable, so it's something to be mindful of.  

If you're into FPS (first person shooter) games, then you should definitely check out this headset. It has a function called "superhuman hearing" which makes sounds like enemies reloading, footsteps, or the arrival of reinforcements crystal clear. Being able to hear these sounds is crucial to survival when the battle starts getting wild!

Moreover, the microphone comes with TruSpeak technology which makes it extremely clear and precise. The only downside is the high price - but if you have the money then this is a fantastic headset worth investing in.

Coming straight from the console creators themselves is this PlayStation 5 headset. This is their top-of-the-line product and it provides exceptional sound clarity that's right up there with the best in the market. And, while it may look like there's no microphone, there are actually two built into the cups! 

Despite the name, this headset is also compatible with the PS4 and PC. Definitely one for those who prefer more a more simplistic look. This headset does require a dongle to plug into your console, which comes included.

A headset that's definitely built for long gaming sessions, the Premium Gaming Headset is designed to avoid overheating, even when you're playing for hours on end. It also offers very accurate and clear sound, so you'll be able to hear distant gunshots easily - great for games like Call of Duty and Overwatch!

Additionally, the cable-connected microphone is precise and sharp, so your teammates will always be able to hear you clearly. However, this is certainly one of the most expensive headsets out there, so we wouldn't recommend it for younger gamers.  

Ending our list is the LVL50 from PDP Gaming, which is well-known for being one loud set of cans - many reviewers have commented that even at 50% volume, you can hear everything! It's also an incredibly comfy headset, with an adjustable headband and delicate nylon mesh covers that feel as soft as clouds. 

The downside is that this product feels a little cheap. The majority of the headset is made up of plastic, which is squeaky when moving around. Also, the microphone is pretty quiet and lacks any volume control, so other players may struggle to hear you.
