Sony INZONE H5 (WHG500B.CE7) -langattomat pelikuulokkeet, musta

Ps5 löysi samantien kuulokkeet. Hyvä äänenlaatu ja kevyet.

The product is excellent quality and backed with Sony help and technical support, unable to test them as they are a Christmas present for Granddaughter hope this helps regarding quality and Sony support.

Fantastic product, quality build and fantastic sound

Had this a couple of weeks now so no report on longevity but it's a huge step up from my previous Sony set. Ear pads are super comfortable and suitable for long play. Battery life excellent and the sound is really great for this level of tech. Apparently my voice is clear through the boom mic and it's no problem during use. Set up was simple with a fair amount of options. For the price I think these are great.

I received this less than a month ago and had high hopes. The headset came packaged very professionally and the box is worth keeping! It came with everything necessary, including the cables, manual and even some stickers!

It took less than 2 hours for the headset to charge to 100% (USB C charging) and is still at around 50%! I use it every night for when I play Deep Rock Galactic on my PC and also Fortnite on my PS5. The audio quality is great, and I appreciate the game/chat buttons to level out which one I want to hear more. The headset itself is very comfortable, the padding is very soft and doesn’t irritate whatsoever.

I used to use Steelseries however I now use this headset as my main headset and the other is a spare.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given these headsets as part of product testers program,on receiving them I was pleased with the well packaged appearance,I found connecting to my ps5 was a easy process so tried them on my windows 11 computer again a easy connection.I found them very comfortable during my gameplay and the sound was amazing especially the spatial sound and the way the headset picks up the mic when I’m talking a good Balance between game sound and mic.The buttons are simple and robust better than some fiddly ones I’ve had in the past I love the instant ability to mute the mic with a simple lift up of mic arm,to sum up I’m really impressed by the quality of sound and looks well designed with practical functionality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Sony Inzone H5 Wireless gaming Headset is a very comfortable headset. I can honestly say this is the most comfortable gaming headset I have had.

I have only used it for the PlayStation 5 and highly recommend for any enthusiastic gamer. They provide a crystal clear sound whilst also offering a great range of bass that isn't too overpowering. Really gives you a great gaming experience.

I found the headset really easy to connect, doesn't drop out and very responsive.

Battery life is fantastic, since using them and I've used them a lot, I haven't needed to charge these as yet. It has a nice feature where you press a button on the headset and it tells you what battery percentage you have left. It provides 360 Spatial Sound especially for gaming which is a great benefit. When using the microphone its super easy to use, you pull the boom down when you want to chat and push it up when you are finished, no need to muck around with finding buttons. This headset is super durable which is great when you have little ones around. All in all these are a great investment, super easy to use, great quality and really comfortable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Some of my favourite features of this headset are that you can use it wired which makes it easier in an online situation where I don't have to charge it. the feel of the new material is really comfortable to wear for long periods of time and it doesn't feel heavy at all. The sound quality is sensational. I can hear all things going on around me as if I'm actually in the game. I can't even hear what is going on around me it's that good! talking through the microphone is very crisp. overall a I really rate this headset and would recommend to other people in need of a solid choice of headset.

Great piece of kit for immersive gaming. Comfortable headset, lightweight and providing solid audio. With spatial sound enabled sound is very precise. Microphone is great, easily switched on /off moving mouthpiece. Easy connected to PC or Playstation. Good buy.

(Review of Sony INZONE H5 Wireless Gaming Headset)

BACKGROUND

Testing this headset was carried out at home whilst connected via the transceiver to my desktop PC and also used to listen to music from my Sony hi-fi and Sony mobile to test the wired connection. Various music was tried out as well as sound from PC games and Zoom sessions with friends and family.

I am a male pensioner living in Bedford and own a number of Sony products including a Sony audio/video setup including TV, audio/video receiver, UHD player, maxi hi-fi and mobile phone. I also use Sony ear buds when out walking, connected to my mobile.

As an older tester/music lover I have various headphones to compare with and PC games to try out but do not own a PS5.

DELIVERY

The parcel arrived safely on time with no damage to the outer covering.

INITIAL IMPRESSION

The box design was well made, eye catching, showing the contents clearly and protected the delicate product within. The box printing was clear and easy to read.

On opening the box you see a tray holding:

• Two connecting cables, one USB-A to USB-C for charging and the other a 3.5mm angled stereo jack plug to a straight 3.5mm stereo jack plug for wired use of the headset.

• The Guarantee, some stickers and the Reference Guide.

Remove the tray and the headset becomes fully visible. And what a sight it is. Sitting in the purpose built packing it oozes class. The transceiver is also here and has a standard USB-A connector and a source selector switch for PC/PS5. Another plus point was the lack of plastic in the packaging, a gold star for Sony!

The frame of the headset is solid, feels strong and should resist knocks easily whilst the softer areas around the top and ears is extremely comfortable from the off. The right side has a selector for game/chat mode (use ‘chat’ for non-gaming) and the on/off switch with accompanying LED to give feedback whilst the left side has a rotating microphone arm, the volume control, two sockets to connect cables and a charging LED.

LEARNING HOW THEY WORK

Inside the box lid there is a 1-2-3 diagram to get you started. 1 has a Q code that takes you to the Help Guide which is clear and simple to follow, getting you up and running quickly. 2 and 3 on the box show what to do if you cannot read the Q code, setting the source to PC or Play Station 5, plugging the transceiver into the USB-A port and turning the headset on. It also points to the INZONE Hub software which allows fine tuning of the headset (see below).

The Reference Guide is once again in quite small type, some users may struggle with that, and covers the points regarding safety and charging although there is no charger included in the box. The online Help Guide covers the details the Reference Guide omits and is a necessary read to get the best out of the headset, not so good if you have no computer.

FEATURES

Indicator Lights

The headset and the transceiver both have lights to show their status. The headset lights can be white, orange and off whilst the transceiver shows only white but uses flashing to indicate the status to you.

The headset show status for power, wireless connection, software update, rechargeable battery and charging. The transceiver shows wireless connectivity and software update status. These are very useful if you are having problems.

Charging the Headset/Battery Life

This is a simple process without issues. The time to charge the headset is about 3½ hours using a USB AC adaptor (>500 mA) and a full charge should last 28 hours (Sony Guide). You can also connect to a PC USB outlet but the charge time may be longer. Always use the supplied USB cable and disconnect once completed. A short charge of 10 minutes should give you around three hours use. The charging LED shows orange whilst charging and goes off when complete.

INZONE Hub (https://www.sony.net/inzonehub-support) (Ulkoinen palvelu) (Avautuu uuteen välilehteen)

Available from the Sony Support site and should be checked out early to get the best from the headset. The opening display shows the battery state of the headset and the on/off status of the microphone. The menu has three items and below that a settings icon.

The right side shows the windows for the menu selected, Sound Settings by default.

• Menu Options

1. Sound Settings – Used to adjust the headset to your preference
2. Device Settings – Two windows – General Settings and System Software Information
3. App Sync Settings – To manage the Custom settings
   
   

• Sound Settings

This has four windows although you need to scroll to see them all. They are Sound Profile, Spatial Sound, Volume and Microphone. Note that these adjustments do not work when headset is set to ‘Chat’ mode.

Sound Profile - This is subdivided into three sections:

Sound Profile

You get a default profile but you can set up new custom profiles and select them here.

Equalizer

Here you can choose between Flat (no effect), Bass Boost (emphasis on the lows), Music and Video (slight boost for bass and drop for high end) and Custom where you set up whatever you wish. Changes to any are stored in the Custom option, only one option per sound profile.

Dynamic Range Control

As expected this adjusts the range between minimum and maximum volume. This can be set to Off, Low and High. High appears to give the best results.

Spatial Sound – Two sections – Spatial Sound and Sound Field Personalization

Spatial Sound

This setting is Off/On and expands the sound stage of the sound.

Sound Field Personalisation

Sony offer this if you photo your ears with the relevant app to improve the sound further.

Volume – Two sections – Master Volume and Game/Chat Balance

Both of these can be adjusted but just reflect the controls on the headset. Note that on a PC you can only select one of the modes as output in sound settings. That means you need to set the balance to 100% for your choice in this app.

Microphone – Four sections – Microphone Volume, Audio Gain Control, Microphone Test and Sidetone

Microphone Volume

This controls the volume sent to the transceiver.

Audio Gain Control

This controls the level of sensitivity of the microphone.

Microphone Test

This enables the ‘listening end’ to hear you to do a level check.

Sidetone

This adjuster makes it easier to talk and assists the microphone to pick up sounds and play your voice naturally.

Overall these settings are useful for personal preferences. Mine are to leave Dynamic Range on High, Spatial Sound on and Equalizer on Music/Video. That covers most of my uses as I don’t have a PS5.

The Settings icon enables another window with the option to launch INZONE Hub at PC Startup as well as links to Support, Registration, EUL, Privacy Policy and License Information. You can also give your consent for product development purposes

• Device Settings

This section allows you to set the automatic power off/on switch to save battery life and the time interval before this activates from 5 mins to 3 hrs. The Vocal Notification language can also be set here although there is a very limited choice (English, Japanese or Chinese).

The System Software versions for headset and transceiver are also shown.

• App Sync Settings

This allows you to add or delete apps but I was unable to effect any changes through it so its use remains a mystery.

Comfort

The headset is light at 260g and is easily adjusted to size with sliders built into the over the head band. The side pressure is less than other headphones I own and is better for it, increasing the level of comfort. Another plus point is that it fits perfectly over my hearing aids, a real benefit for older listeners.

With the concentrated use during this evaluation I expected to get some reaction to my ears being enclosed for hours at a time but the comfort level has been very high and my wife can vouch for the external sound being reduced significantly! The soft covers are replaceable but I have not needed to attempt that yet.

Microphone and Noise Cancelling

The side microphone comes into play by lowering the arm to be near your mouth and works very well. I tested this by creating Zoom sessions and using the headset for conversations. The people listening thought that my voice was clearer than when I used my usual mic for the job and I will use the headset in future. The Sidetone setting in the INZONE Hub can be used to improve the noise cancelling within the microphone and works well.

Connecting with other devices

Although you lose the ability to adjust the headset settings by not using the transceiver it is still possible to use the supplied cable to plug into headphone jack sockets on other appliances. The angled end of the cable should be plugged into the sending equipment and the straight end into the headset. I used it with my Sony mid-range hi-fi and Sony mobile and found the sound more than acceptable and compares favourably with other headphones I own but feel that the depth of the bass when listening to music is less than can be achieved using a PC and could be improved.

Water Resistance

The headset is not water resistant and care should be taken whilst in use.

Ease of Use

Overall, the headset is easy to set up, use and maintain and should give years of use if cared for.

Value

At the current price the headset sits between the lower priced and the upper range Sony headsets. Compared to rival headsets around the same price this headset looks value for money.

Would I Recommend This Headset?

Looking at my lifestyle I can see it becoming a key item for me. It works with my PC and the audio/video software that I use and the built in microphone will make web chats and Zoom meetings much easier for people to hear me. Being wireless will also make recording vocals much easier with no cable to be troublesome for backing tracks and playback.

In summary, it is a great all-round headset and I would be happy to recommend the INZONE H5 to anyone who is looking for
