I watched the Linus Tech Tips review and if I remember correctly, Sony are claiming it's all to do with their proprietary streaming codec used to communicate with the PS5. It does have a 3.5mm audio jack.
thanks, I just watchted the LTT video. I'm with Linus on this one: Sony should at least give the user the option to use bluetooth headphones.
Moreover, the Snapdragon 662 has support for bluetooth. Why nor use it?! Just to make us buy another pair of headphones? :-(
Sooo... Sony doing the same Sony bullshit they've done for 30+ years now?
Nothing new under the sun there.
It sucks, but I'll take that over Microsoft's dumb decision to not only have a proprietary wireless protocol for Xbox like Sony, but also restrict audio streaming over USB to signed devices only for "security".
At least on PS5 I can plug in my wired headset using USB.
I did not know that about the restriction of signed usb devices. I guess the word "Security" can be used for all vendor lock-ins
Yeh it's all a bit iffy. Then again, Bluetooth is the worst thing in the world for security. Getting better now.
It depends. Sony used to have their own proprietary SD-Card: Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo. And the got rid of it (now using regular SD-Cards.)
So I do have a little bit of hope ;-)
