Description

Two ways to connect in one headset

Wirelessly, the headset connects over Bluetooth, with the pairing button on the ear cup. If a device has no Bluetooth, use the included 3.5 mm audio cable instead. Volume is set with a rotary dial and a slider right on the headset, and the microphone mutes with a single press. Besides the audio cable, the box contains a USB-C cable for charging the battery.

Who this headset is for

The GXT 493PS Carus suits a PS5, PS4 or Nintendo Switch player who wants to use the same headset with a computer and a phone. The closed cups reduce outside noise and keep game audio to yourself. When you do not need the microphone, for example while listening to music, you can simply detach it.
