Trust GXT 323W Carus - Very cheap gaming headset for PS5

The arrival of PlayStation 5, even though it has been on a drip, is also immediately assuming the arrival of a series of accessories in order to meet the needs of users. Among them, the main and essential thing is to always have good headphones to maximize your gaming performance.

We bring you an inexpensive alternative with good performance, the GXT 323W Carus gaming headphones from Trust fully compatible with PS5. This has been our experience with this inexpensive and interesting headset that can become an interesting battle companion for your PlayStation 5.

Materials and design

Let's start with the usual, the design and materials of the headphones. Trust, in general, always bets on devices that without aiming at the most premium, they achieve good finishes and above all a resistance standard that has been accompanying the company for many years. The goal is almost always to get value for money, and it shows. The reviewed headphones arrive in white, with a fairly aggressive gaming design and a matte plastic that helps reduce fingerprints. We do not know, however, given the color of the PS5 Trust Carus, how they will age.

  • Dimensions: 210 x 190 x 110 mm
  • Weight: 299 grams

For its part, on the sides it has a small detail in simile aluminum and the logo GXT products Gaming brand. The inner part of the headband has a large cushion and the same is true for the headphones. These will completely cover your ears to insulate you properly. In the left earphone we have the flexible microphone and the cable 3,5mm jack with a length of 1,2m and braided nylon, guaranteed durability.

Technical Specifications

We now turn to the technical section. We find a system of stereo playback with two audio channels (2.0) through about drivers of no less than 50 millimeters. The sounds will be heard quite loud thanks to their size, although we emphasize that it will not have any type of virtualization at a technical level when it comes to imitating the 7.1 or the 3D Sound of PS5, something reserved for the brand's own headphones. These drivers will have an impedance of up to 32 Ohms, while the microphone is not removable. Their frequency will oscillate between 20 Hz and 20000 Hz when playing games.

  • Distortion: 5%
  • Magnet Type: Neodymium
  • Microphone Type: Omidirectional Electret
  • Microphone frequency: 150 Hz - 16000 Hz

We do not have active noise reduction, There is no built-in software either, but the box includes a number of adapters for the connection cable, which will go directly to the PS5 DualSense controller. On a technical level, the Taurus GXT Carus are quite simplified headphones, designed so that we arrive, connect them to the remote control and begin to enjoy our games without too much complication, and that is how its use develops. Of course, the technical skills flee from the flourish but it offers us everything we need to have a standard experience.

User experience

Inside the headphones have a prominent pad, the same happens with the headphones. This means that in the upper part we do not notice discomfort in long hours of video games, all this despite the fact that they are not excessively light, but not noticeably heavy either. For its part, In the headphones, having such large drivers and a good pad, we find that they completely cover the ear, which will be totally isolated from the outside, thus offering us a very good experience at the level of isolation, although it can cause some discomfort in spectacle wearers.

On the other hand, on the side we find a volume control that will not have interaction with the user interface of PS5, that is, we can manage the volume of the headphones through them, but it will always be subject to the volume that we assign to the audio output through the PS button of the DualSense. In that case, the high volume is exceptionally powerful, just as we found no "noise" in these ranges. For its part, we also have the advantage of being able to activate and deactivate the microphone through the headphone switch, although the button integrated in the remote will also work for this.

Editor's opinion

We are facing quite interesting headphones, especially considering the price range. You can find them on their own website or at Amazon for 39,99 euros, being a product that is specially authorized for use on PS5, but also on any other gaming device such as your PC, your PS4 or your Xbox. They are undoubtedly an interesting alternative to improve your results at a low cost, since good headphones are always necessary to play good games or create a more immersive experience. As we have said, we have before us a product of an adjusted cost that can easily enter our pretensions.
