Sony Inzone H5 Wireless Gaming Headset with Microphone White

The Sony INZONE H5 are over-ear headphones designed for PC and PlayStation 5 gaming. They combine a low-latency wireless connection, spatial sound, an AI-optimized microphone, and a lightweight design suitable for extended gaming sessions.

They can also be connected via a 3.5mm audio cable, offering a practical alternative when you don't want to use the wireless connection or the battery runs out.

Sound

Its 40mm dynamic drivers reproduce a frequency range of 5Hz to 20,000Hz. Integrated ducts in the housings help reinforce the bass frequencies, while compatibility with 360 Spatial Sound for gaming makes it easier to pinpoint sounds and opponents within the game environment.

The sound experience can be customized from the INZONE Hub software for PC by adjusting equalization, spatial sound, and balancing game audio and chat.

Battery and charging

The built-in battery provides up to 28 hours of wireless operation . A full charge takes approximately 3.5 hours.

The fast-charging function provides approximately three hours of use with just ten minutes of charging . The headphones can continue to be used while charging, although Sony warns that noise may occur if the audio cable is used simultaneously.

Microphone

The bidirectional boom microphone employs AI-based noise reduction technology to distinguish the user's voice from ambient sounds.

The microphone automatically mutes when you raise it and unmutes when you lower it. Noise reduction is applied to voice pickup; these headphones do not have active noise cancellation for the sound the user hears.

Design and comfort

Weighing approximately 260 grams , the INZONE H5 headphones are designed to reduce lateral pressure. They feature soft nylon ear cushions and a padded headband that distributes weight evenly.

Its closed circumaural design completely surrounds the ears to promote passive isolation and maintain a stable position during gameplay.

Connectivity

The wireless connection uses a 2.4 GHz USB transceiver with a low-latency algorithm specifically designed for gaming. The adapter features separate modes for PC and PlayStation 5.

They also feature a 3.5 mm analog input with a detachable cable. They do not include Bluetooth connectivity, so they cannot be paired directly with phones, tablets, or televisions using this protocol.

Compatibility

They are designed primarily for computers and PlayStation 5. On PS5, they allow you to check the volume, battery, and microphone status on screen, in addition to using Tempest 3D AudioTech.

The 3.5 mm analog connection expands compatibility to controllers, computers, and other devices equipped with a compatible headphone output. Some advanced features, such as INZONE Hub, volume control, and game/chat balance, may not be available via cable.
