Exciting News: PlayStation Earbuds with noise cancellation may be coming soon! Recently, there were hints that Sony might be developing wireless earbuds for the PlayStation 5 console. Now, a new FCC listing has been spotted, suggesting that these earbuds could be on their way. The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has given approval for the launch of the Sony USB Transceiver, which is likely to be a part of the earbuds package. Stay tuned for further details and updates!
After several rumors, Sony Interactive Entertainment finally announced PlayStation earbuds in May, but didn’t provide any technical details at the time. Now, recent FCC filings have surfaced, giving us a glimpse of what to expect when the earbuds are released, which is reportedly happening later this year.
Is Sony planning to enable Bluetooth functionality for the PlayStation earbuds on the PS5?
As per the FCC filings discovered by MySmartPrice (via NoteBookCheck), the upcoming PlayStation earbuds are set to feature two exciting capabilities: active noise cancellation and a USB transceiver. The USB transceiver is expected to enable seamless compatibility with the PS5, making the earbuds an ideal accessory for gamers seeking an immersive and high-quality audio experience. With these enhancements, players can look forward to enjoying their favorite games on the PS5 with enhanced sound clarity and the ability to block out distracting background noise. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development from Sony!
While the PS5 has Bluetooth capability, it lacks support for Bluetooth audio. The reason for this omission is that both Sony and Microsoft chose to skip this feature in their current-gen consoles because of concerns related to bandwidth and latency. Although Bluetooth is a common way to connect wireless audio devices, it seems that the companies decided to prioritize other technologies for a better gaming experience. As a result, players using the PS5 will need to rely on wired connections or other supported audio options to enjoy their gaming soundtracks and communicate with friends during gameplay.
The PlayStation earbuds will work with both the PS5 and PC and include Bluetooth support. Fans are eager for Sony to enable Bluetooth audio on the PS5 in the future. This feature would allow users to enjoy the convenience of wireless audio while gaming on the console. Fingers crossed for exciting updates from Sony!
Sony is launching its first-ever wireless earbuds that will provide lossless audio on both PS5 and PC. The company has promised to reveal more information in the coming months. These earbuds are anticipated to hit the market in fall 2023, along with the release of the PlayStation handheld Project Q. However, the exact release date for Project Q is yet to be announced. Gaming enthusiasts can look forward to an enhanced audio experience with these upcoming Sony earbuds.
