Best Wireless Gaming Headset for PC and PS5: Nine Listings Compared by Dongle, Battery and Mic

The best wireless gaming headset for PC and PS5 in this set depends on how much you want to spend. The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 and the HyperX Cloud III S are the premium options that name both platforms and long battery life. The Logitech G733 Lightspeed is a lighter mid-tier alternative with a suspension headband, and the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 for PS5 and PC is the value pick from a console-audio specialist. Below we compare all nine listings, with a dongle-versus-Bluetooth table and a battery worked example.

The most important fact for this keyword: a PS5 normally needs a wired link or a USB dongle for headset audio, so a headset that only offers Bluetooth is a poor match. Check every title for a 2.4GHz receiver.

PC and PS5 compatibility in plain terms

Wireless gaming headsets use one of three links. A 2.4GHz dongle is a small USB receiver designed for games and generally lower delay. Bluetooth pairs with phones, tablets and many PCs but is less suited to fast competitive play. A wired fallback, usually a cable into a controller or USB-C port, is useful for dead batteries. For this keyword, the dongle is the link that matters on the console.

Read titles for platform names, not just “multiplatform”. A headset sold for Xbox may use a different receiver from the PlayStation version. If you want a primer on fit, drivers and wireless terms, see our headset buying guide.

How we picked these nine

We collected wireless listings that name both PC and PlayStation, then compared link type, battery claims, mic wording and the way each title frames compatibility. Basis: published specifications, manufacturer documentation and buyer reviews. Nobody on the team used or measured these units. Price tier is relative inside the set, and no exact prices are quoted because they change.

The nine listings

HyperX Cloud III S

The title names PS5, PS4, Switch, PC, Mac and mobile, with up to 120 hours on 2.4GHz and up to 200 hours on Bluetooth, 53mm angled drivers and a detachable mic. Those battery numbers are the largest in the set, and they come from the maker. The angled-driver design points the drivers toward the ear canal, which is a design claim rather than a guarantee of better sound.

Who it suits: players who use a PC and a PS5 and want to charge as rarely as possible. The detachable mic is handy if you also use the headset as headphones for music on a phone.

Scenario: you move the dongle between a gaming PC and a console on weekends. A long battery means you can forget about charging for weeks. Ask before buying: is the Bluetooth mode able to run at the same time as the dongle?

Comfort and fit are the other half of the decision. The title does not describe the pads, so look at buyer comments about clamp force and ear-cup depth, especially if you wear glasses. A headset this feature-rich also tends to come with an app, and it is worth checking whether that app exists for the platform you use most. If the answer is no, you still get the core wireless features, but extras such as equaliser profiles may be out of reach.

Pros

• Longest listed battery.
• Detachable mic.
• Broad platform list.

Cons

• Premium tier.
• Battery figures are maker claims.
• Features may need an app.

SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5

The listing mentions neodymium magnetic drivers, a 60-hour battery, 2.4GHz or Bluetooth, a ClearCast Gen2.X mic, and PC, PS5, PS4, Switch and mobile support. The mic is named in marketing terms, so look for buyer comments about voice clarity. The 60-hour figure is the maker’s.

Who it suits: buyers who want a well-known wireless set that plugs in with a dongle and also pairs to a phone. The title is one of the clearer ones about the dual link.

Scenario: you take calls on Bluetooth while the dongle stays in the PC, then switch to the console for the evening. Ask before buying: does the companion app, if any, work on your platform?

Another point to weigh is the dongle’s behaviour when you move it between machines. Most dongle-based headsets re-pair automatically, but some remember a single host. Read the quick-start guide on the maker’s page before relying on it for a frequent PC-to-console swap. The neodymium drivers in the title are a design detail; they do not by themselves tell you how the headset sounds, so lean on buyer impressions for tuning.

Pros

• 2.4GHz and Bluetooth.
• 60-hour battery claim.
• Clear platform list.

Cons

• Premium tier.
• Mic claims are marketing wording.
• App features not confirmed in title.

Logitech G733 Lightspeed

The title highlights a suspension headband, a Blue VO!CE mic, PRO-G audio and compatibility with PC, PS5, PS4 and Switch. It does not state battery hours, so check the listing. A suspension headband distributes weight across the head with a strap rather than a padded band.

Who it suits: players who find padded headbands warm or heavy, and who want a light wireless set with a receiver.

Scenario: you play long sessions on a PC and occasionally on a console and care most about comfort. Ask before buying: how long does it run per charge, and does the mic detach or flip?

Since the title is silent on battery and charging, treat those as open questions and read the specification page before you buy. A suspension band is often liked by people who dislike pressure on the crown of the head, though it can feel less secure if you move around a lot. Also check whether the model has a separate PS5-specific note in its listing, as some Logitech products ship with notes about console support.

Pros

• Suspension headband.
• Dedicated receiver.
• Clear platform list.

Cons

• Battery hours missing from title.
• Mid to premium tier.
• Fixed styling.

Turtle Beach Stealth 600 (PS5 and PC)

This version names PlayStation and PC, Bluetooth, 50mm drivers, an 80-hour rechargeable battery, a noise-cancelling flip-to-mute mic and memory foam. A flip-to-mute mic is quick to use mid-match. The 80-hour number is a maker claim, so plan for fewer hours.

Who it suits: players on a PC and a PS5 who want strong stated battery life at a mid tier. Memory foam helps if you wear glasses.

Scenario: you play after work on PC and on the weekend on the console. Ask before buying: which transmitter ships in the box, and is it specific to PlayStation?

The brand is known for console audio, so the PS5 pairing is likely to be straightforward, but the title leaves the receiver type unstated. Look for a photo of the dongle and its connector, since USB-A versus USB-C matters on newer laptops and some PC front panels. Bluetooth is listed for phones; keep expectations modest for fast games, and use the dongle for anything competitive.

Pros

• 80-hour battery claim.
• Flip-to-mute mic.
• Memory foam.

Cons

• Fixed mic.
• Receiver details unclear in title.
• Bluetooth is secondary for gaming.

Turtle Beach Stealth 600 (Xbox listing)

The second Stealth 600 listing lists Xbox first, then PS5, PC and mobile, with Bluetooth, 50mm drivers, an 80-hour battery, a flip-to-mute mic and a white finish. It looks like a close sibling of the PS5 and PC version, and the Xbox-first wording suggests the receiver may be set up for Xbox. For a PC and PS5 buyer it is the weaker match, so confirm which receiver you get.

Who it suits: households with an Xbox who also use PC and PS5. If your priority is PS5 and PC, the other listing is usually the safer choice.

Scenario: you share a headset across consoles. Ask before buying: does this version work wirelessly on a PS5, or only through Bluetooth or a cable? The price field on this listing is empty, so compare current offers.

If you do buy this version, read the product images and Q&A for the exact receiver. A headset sold with Xbox wording sometimes ships a receiver tuned for that console, while the PlayStation edition ships a different one. Because the title also names PlayStation and PC, the maker may offer broader use, but you should confirm rather than assume. The empty price field suggests the listing may be out of stock or variable.

Pros

• Multiplatform wording.
• Same battery claim as the sibling.
• Flip-to-mute mic.

Cons

• Xbox-first positioning.
• Near-duplicate of the other listing.
• Receiver compatibility unclear.

Turtle Beach Stealth 500

The title says wireless amplified headset for PS5, PS4, PC and mobile, with a 40-hour battery, Bluetooth, memory foam cushions, a flip-to-mute mic, EQ presets and a companion app. Amplified refers to built-in amplification. It is a step down in battery claim from the 600.

Who it suits: buyers who want tweakable sound through presets and an app, at a lower tier than the 600.

Scenario: you like to switch between a footsteps preset and a music preset. Ask before buying: does the app run on your PC, and is the dongle included for the PS5?

The companion app is the draw here. EQ presets let you favour footsteps or bass, and some players like having a one-button preset on the earcup. Verify what the app can control, whether it runs on PC, and whether the headset stores the preset on board. Keep in mind that the 40-hour claim is the lowest of the premium-named brands in this set, so it may suit shorter sessions.

Pros

• EQ presets and app.
• Memory foam.
• Budget to mid tier.

Cons

• 40-hour battery claim.
• App needed for the best features.
• Fixed mic.

AOC 2.4GHz Wireless Gaming Headset

The title names PS5, PS4, PC and Switch, 45 hours, Bluetooth 6.0, a noise-cancelling mic, 7.1 virtual surround and a white finish, aimed at Fortnite and Call of Duty players. The Bluetooth 6.0 label is a marketing claim; confirm the actual version on the listing. The brand is better known elsewhere in PC hardware, so check support and warranty terms.

Who it suits: budget buyers who want a dongle, a white colorway and a console-friendly set.

Scenario: you want a cheap second headset for a spare console. Ask before buying: how is the mic filtered, and how long is the warranty?

White finishes look good with a white setup, but they show wear faster, so wipe the cups now and then. The title mentions two wireless modes, so confirm whether you can keep the dongle in your PC and still pair Bluetooth to a phone at the same time. Because the brand is not primarily known for headsets, read the warranty terms, and keep your order record in case you need support.

Pros

• 2.4GHz and Bluetooth.
• 45-hour claim.
• Budget tier.

Cons

• Virtual surround is software.
• Support depth unclear.
• Marketing-heavy title.

Valorise Wireless Gaming Headset

The title lists 7.1 surround, a 100-hour battery, 2.4GHz USB, Bluetooth 5.4, Type-C, a noise-cancelling mic and RGB light, for PC, PS5, PS4, Mac and Switch, and states “Not for Xbox”. That clear exclusion is useful. A 100-hour battery claim is large for the tier, so treat it as an upper marker.

Who it suits: PC and PS5 players on a small budget who value battery life above brand name.

Scenario: you want a headset that rarely needs charging. Ask before buying: how does the RGB affect battery life, and what do buyers say about the mic?

Keep in mind that the long battery claim may assume lights off or low volume. If you leave the RGB on, plan for fewer hours, and charge before a long session to be safe. The Type-C port is useful because it matches modern phone chargers. As with other generic brands, the biggest unknowns are the mic and long-term durability, so read recent buyer comments carefully before buying.

Pros

• Large battery claim.
• Honest “Not for Xbox” note.
• Budget tier.

Cons

• Generic brand.
• Virtual surround is software.
• RGB may cut hours.

Ozeino Wireless Gaming Headset

The title lists PS5, PC and Switch, “lossless audio”, 40 hours, play and charge, 2.4GHz USB and Type-C, and a flip mic. Lossless is a marketing word; over a wireless link it needs context, so check the listing. Play-and-charge means you can plug in while using it.

Who it suits: shoppers with the smallest budget who still want a 2.4GHz dongle.

Scenario: you need an inexpensive backup. Ask before buying: what is the return policy and how is the mic?

As a rule, the cheapest wireless headsets are best for casual play. A flip-up mic is simple, but check how stable the wireless link feels according to buyer comments, and whether the dongle blocks neighbouring USB ports on your PC or console. If this is your first wireless set, it is a low-risk way to learn how much you value battery life and mic quality before moving up a tier.

Pros

• Lowest tier.
• Play and charge.
• 2.4GHz dongle.

Cons

• Marketing audio terms.
• 40-hour claim.
• Generic brand.

Decision matrix: PC versus PS5 operation

Setup and connection procedure

1. Charge the headset fully before first use and read the quick-start card for the pairing steps.
2. On PC, plug the dongle into a USB port, then pick the headset as playback and recording device in sound settings.
3. On PS5, plug the dongle into a console USB port and choose the headset as the audio output in the console’s settings.
4. Check the mic level in the party chat settings before a match, and adjust the mic monitoring if the headset offers it.
5. Keep the dongle away from metal cases and USB 3 hubs if you notice dropouts; a short extension cable can help.

Worked example: how often will you charge?

Assumptions, illustrative: you play three hours a day, which is 21 hours a week, and real battery life is about 70 percent of the maker’s claim. Hours for the Logitech G733 are not in its title, so it is left out.

A headset that lasts four weeks versus one week is a real difference if you forget to charge. If you play a lot, the premium tier battery claims pay off. If you plug in nightly, the numbers matter less. For a broader PC-only view, see our wireless headphones for gaming PC list.

• Smallest spend: Valorise or Ozeino, with realistic expectations.

Frequently asked questions

Can one wireless headset work on both PC and PS5?

Yes, if it ships with a 2.4GHz USB dongle that both machines accept. The dongle plugs into a USB port on the PC or the console, and you move it when you switch. Check the listing for named PS5 and PC support, because some headsets are sold in separate console-specific versions with different receivers. Bluetooth alone is not a reliable PS5 link.

Does the PS5 support Bluetooth headsets?

Historically, the PS5 has not supported standard Bluetooth headphones for game audio, so most buyers rely on a USB dongle or a wired connection. Platform features can change, so check Sony’s current support page before you buy. Headsets that list both a 2.4GHz dongle and Bluetooth are handy because Bluetooth still works with a phone or laptop.

How accurate is the battery life on the box?

Treat it as an upper marker. Real hours depend on volume, lighting, microphone use and sometimes the wireless mode. Our worked example assumes real use is about 70 percent of the claim, which is an illustrative figure, not a measurement. Plan around the lower number and keep a USB-C cable nearby for top-ups.

Is Bluetooth good enough for gaming?

For casual single-player games, calls and music, many people are happy with it. For fast competitive titles, a 2.4GHz dongle is generally preferred because it is designed for lower delay. Bluetooth is best seen as a bonus mode on a headset, not the main link. If a title lists both, you get the best of each.

Are cheap wireless headsets worth buying?

They can be fine for casual use, but the trade-offs are usually in mic clarity, comfort over long sessions, software support and quality control. Read the listing for charging method, dongle type and platform support, and favour sellers with clear return terms. If competitive play or voice chat matters to you, spending a tier higher tends to remove the biggest compromises.

Can I use the headset while it charges?

Some listings advertise play-and-charge, which means you can plug in a USB-C cable and keep playing. Not every model supports this, and some disable wireless while charging. Check the listing or the maker’s manual, and keep the original cable handy.
