Buying call

Buy the INZONE H5 if you play on PC and PS5 and want a light, comfortable headset: it weighs about 260g, the 2.4GHz USB-C dongle works on both platforms, battery lasts up to 28 hours and the spatial sound places footsteps well. Skip it if you want Bluetooth for your phone, because it doesn't have it, and the build feels plain.
