Wired headset for Switch and mobile

The PDP Airlite 500-162-HLBL is a blue over-ear gaming headset built for Nintendo Switch 2, Switch Lite and OLED models. It connects through a 3.5mm jack and works with smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop PCs. The 40mm drivers deliver stereo sound with passive noise isolation. No battery or external power is required.

Lightweight frame with retractable mic

The headset weighs 0.28 kilograms and uses plastic, fabric and foam materials with an adjustable headband and breathable ear cushions. A flexible boom microphone with 16 ohm impedance flips up to mute and helps reduce background noise. On-ear touch controls include volume adjustment. The cable is retractable for easier storage and transport.

Check your device has a 3.5mm port

This headset only works with devices that provide a 3.5mm audio jack. USB-only controllers, headsets or docks without an analogue port will not connect. The microphone uses the same combined TRRS connection, so separate mic and headphone sockets need a splitter. Verify your platform supports inline volume and mute functions over a single 3.5mm plug.

Questions about this item

What does the 3.5 mm connector limit for in-game audio and chat?

The 3.5 mm plug carries stereo sound and microphone signals through a single port, so audio quality is capped by the host device's built-in codec.

What physical clearance does the over-ear frame need to fit around the ears?

Over-ear cups with 40 mm drivers and foam cushions require enough head width for the adjustable band and ear depth for the all-round earpiece shape.

How is the retractable microphone deployed, and what step activates it?

Pull the mic boom down from the left ear cup until it clicks; flip it back up to mute — no separate switch or software setup is required.
