When it comes to gaming headsets, $100 doesn't go far. In most cases, the low cost comes with a sacrifice — whether it's construction, features, or sound quality. And yet, at $99 the PlayStation Gold Wireless Stereo Headset manages to preserve a commendable level of quality for each. It's by no means the best headset available, but with simulated 7.1 surround sound, programmable sound profiles, cross-platform support, and a rechargeable battery, it offers tremendous bang for your buck.
The design is simple and not particularly attractive, but the bright burst of blue on the inside of the headband and PlayStation accents distinguish it from the deluge of other gaming headsets on the market. Owners can also personalize the headset's removable earplates, though at present, there are no alternative designs to choose from. Expectedly, the build is cheap — utilizing thin, lightweight plastic and faux-leather for the headband and earcups. It's sturdy enough for regular use, but I'd be hesitant to say it's built to last. In particular, the hinges used to fold the earcups inward for easy storage and travel are loose and identifiably weak. But again, considering the low-cost and with reasonable care, it's a manageable concession.
