Sony says the Pulse Elevate wireless speakers will offer “exceptionally lifelike audio, ultra-low latency and lossless PlayStation Link wireless connectivity”. We’ve rounded up everything you need to know about the PlayStation Pulse Elevate wireless speakers, including the price, pre-order and release date.
PlayStation Pulse Elevate wireless speakers: features
The Pulse Elevate wireless speakers are packed with cutting-edge technology. The speakers support Sony’s Tempest 3D Audio in PS5 games, and feature built-in woofers that deliver rich bass tones for a full soundscape.
There’s also a mic with AI-enhanced noise rejection inside the Pulse Elevate wireless speakers. It removes unwanted background noise, and should let you communicate clearly without needing a headset.
You can tilt the speakers back to create your ideal audio experience, and there’s the option to adjust EQ, sidetone, volume and mic mute settings directly via system menus.
The speakers have a built-in rechargeable battery, which lets you take them on the go, though we’ll have to wait to see how long the batteries last. The included charging docks make it easy to jump back into your desktop gaming setup.
PlayStation Pulse Elevate wireless speakers: potential price
Sony has finally shared the price of Pulse Elevate wireless speakers. They cost $219.99, which is a little less than we predicted.
