Turtle Beach, the premium headset maker, is debuting new headsets for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. Dubbed the Ear Force Elite 800, this new headset features active noise cancellation microphone and 7.1 surround sound to give you an immersive experience beyond normal headsets.

Those who hate wires will also be happy about the inclusion of Bluetooth, making it easier to keep your gaming area cleaner or at least have one less cord during gameplay. Because of Bluetooth, the Ear Force Elite 800 can also sync to your smartphone for phone calls and music consumption.

Personally, Bluetooth zone makes this headset a winner. It’s sad that the official PlayStation headset still relies on USB when both the PS3 and PS4 come with Bluetooth built in, making syncing easy while also freeing up the previous USB ports on our powerful consoles.

After the jump, we’ve got more details.

From Turtle Beach:

 Ear Force Elite 800: sets a new standard for premium wireless gaming headsets.
