Sony’s PS3 Bluetooth Headset: Details Released

Finally some official details on Sony’s Playstation 3 headset have been released! The Playstation Bluetooth headset was first introduced as a bundled headset with Socom Confrontation and caught everyone’s attention because of its infamous mute button. Because the headset was just such a great headset for gaming Sony decided to make it its official Playstation bluetooth headset. This headset has been claimed earlier to have high quality noise cancelation because of its double mic system. The headset pairs automatically just by plugging it into the Playstation 3 with the supplied USB cable. The headset will work seamlessly with the Playstation 3 with an on-screen indicator showing the headset connection, battery charge level, speaker volume, and microphone mute status all at a push of a button. This is a great feature because with other headsets you could never see any of these stats on screen and makes it much easier to use. The headset comes with a cradle to charge the headset for up to 8 hours of voice chat when fully charged. This is great for gaming because some people will play over 4 hours at a time on curtain games and traditional bluetooth headsets normally have an average of 4 hours talk time. The official release date will be October 30th in Japan. Everyone who orders the Socom Confrontation Bundle that includes this headset would receive the headset 15 days earlier on October 14th. Gamestop shows that the headset by itself will be available for $49.99 on October 14th also and is available for pre-order.
