Lightweight 280g Gaming Headset

The Philips A88 weighs 280g and uses an on-ear design with a double-layer hand-woven headband and protein leather earcups. A 3.5mm connector links the headset to PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch and mobile devices. The 120° adjustable boom microphone offers passive noise isolation for clear chat.

50mm Drivers With 7.1 Surround

Fifty-millimetre high-density drivers deliver 7.1 virtual surround sound and a quoted frequency response of 5Hz-16KHz. Impedance is listed at 32 ohm for efficient output from controllers and laptops. Passive noise cancelling relies on the ear-cup seal rather than active circuitry.

Wired 3.5mm Universal Connection

The single 3.5mm plug carries both stereo audio and microphone signals without a separate USB adapter. Compatibility covers any device with a standard 3.5mm jack, though older Xbox One pads need Microsoft's own adapter. No Bluetooth pairing, battery charging or software driver installation is required.

Questions about this item

How much does the 280g weight of the Philips A88 headset affect comfort during all-day gaming sessions?

At 280g the headset uses a double-layer hand-woven pressure-relief headband and soft protein leather earcups to distribute weight evenly, keeping pressure low during extended play.

Which 3.5mm devices must I already own to use the wired connection on this headset?

The 3.5mm jack works directly with PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, laptops, tablets, phones and any other device that provides a standard 3.5mm audio port.

Will the 7.1 surround sound and 50mm drivers function properly on my older Xbox One controller that lacks a 3.5mm jack?

Older Xbox One controllers require a separate 3.5mm adapter; once connected the headset delivers stereo audio and the microphone works, but 7.1 surround processing depends on the console or PC software.
