Interesting rumour via Insider-gaming, that Sony are developing wireless earbuds for the PlayStation 5, alongside a new headset code named 'Voyager', which is rumoured to be similar to the Inzone H7 headset. To be honest, it's probably about time new peripherals were launched, which could potentially tie in nicely, with the rumoured new PS5 model(s) incoming (Thread here)



''Insider Gaming sources have revealed that Sony is developing wireless earbuds and a new wireless headset for the PS5, both of which are scheduled to release towards the end of FY23 (April 2023 – March 2024).

The earbuds, named Project Nomad, will have an approximate battery life of around 5 hours, which is almost identical to Apple’s AirPods, but slightly less than Sony’s WF-1000XM3’s 6-hour battery life. Of course, just like almost all wireless earbuds on the market, the Nomad will come with a charging case that can be charged via a USB-C cable to the PlayStation 5. In addition, the same connection method will be used for the wireless earbud updates on the PS5.

As well as the earbuds, sources have also said that the company is developing a new wireless headset for the PlayStation 5, named Voyager, and is also aiming to be released at a similar time to Nomad. it’s understood that the Nomad headset has similar functionality to the Inzone H7 headset, but its price point is yet to be determined.''

    Ok for basic games but lag is no good for most

    I'm sure one of the lads uses Galaxy buds. If that's the case I'm guessing any Bluetooth earbuds would work?

    If i remember correctly, only certain headsets work with the PS5, but that may have changed in recent months, as we use the Arctis 7+ (Which is awesome)
