So wait a minute, is there really no way to turn on Netflix on the Xbox one, turn off the controller and watch an episode with wireless headphones on?
Those are "wireless to the Xbox one console" meaning I would still have to keep the controller on and have a cable running to it to be able to hear anything. This is not the case with the Sony golds on ps4
Wireless man...wirelessGot these for 30 dollars and it works. Not about to spend 100 on headphones.
I'm not even trying to knock the XB1. Im genuinely shocked they don't have an option that fits what I've had on my PS4 since day one. I guess I'll have to rock a wired set for when I'm gaming, and shut it off and use the ps4 for any Netflix / streaming stuff. Still crazy whack that even when gaming I pretty much HAVE to have a headset plugged into the controller if I want to use one. And what the heck is up with having to buy a separate $25 adapter for the controller just to use a headset!?
I was talkin to my boy who's a HUGE Xbox fan. I asked him what headset he was using and he showed me the XBox1 brand head set. Its stereo, and has to be wired to the controller at all times. I showed him the sony golds and explained that they are completely wireless, you can have up to 2 of them paired at a time to the system, has chat, and audio volume, virtual surround sound, is recharged with the same cable as the controller, and is only $100 retail. He looked at me with the
That's lame. Don't think I've played without a wireless headset since I got the pulse elites last gen.
and said "Yeah right you just hatin on Xbox. There's no way that headset can do all that, and even more not for $100. You HAVE to have wires at least."
Those are the Xbox1 brand ones right? Where did you get them for $30?Got these for 30 dollars and it works. Not about to spend 100 on headphones.
yea i was gonna say...just use your sony golds with the adapter. but i guess if you really want surround youre stuckI was talkin to my boy who's a HUGE Xbox fan.

After doing a bit of research online, I found out you can just buy the adapter by itself for $25 and use any headset. (Which you can do already with the PS4 controller without an adapter) I also saw that people have been using Sony golds with the Xbox1 via adapter and they say it works really well, only thing is that supposedly ANY headset plugged into the Xbox 1 controller will only be able to do audio in stereo. The only way around this would be to buy those $300 turtle beaches that have a base station that plugs into the console via optical cable.
Long story short, I guess I'll live with wires when on the Xbox1, as disappointing as it is.
