JBL Quantum 360P/360X: PlayStation, Xbox Series X, Switch, PC/Mac wireless headsets, indicative price updates

Presented in our columns at the beginning of January on the occasion of our report on the CES show in Las Vegas 2023, the new circumaural Wi-Fi/Bluetooth headsets dedicated to JBL Quantum 360P/360XJBL gamers are available. Good news, their indicative price is lower than that announced then.

The JBL Quantum range therefore welcomes the new JBL Quantum 360P and JBL Quantum 360X references. As the suffix in their surname indicates, the first is specific to owners of PlayStation consoles, the second to owners of Xbox consoles. But both can also be paired with a Nintendo Switch or a Mac/PC computer.

JBL Quantum 360P/360X Headphones, Main Specifications

The JBL Quantum 360P and JBL Quantum 360X of course feature JBL QuantumSurround audio technology, but the former takes advantage of the PS5's 3D audio mode (Tempest) while the latter perfectly handles Windows Sonic Surround Sound, all two via a USB wireless transmitter. We can also point out the JBL Dual Source mode to enjoy two sound sources simultaneously, for example a game and a call. The microphone allows, of course, to exchange with other people during wild games, online or with others. And a Mute function is present to exchange with another person by voice without interfering with other players.

The ear cups of the JBL Quantum 360P and JBL Quantum 360X headphones are each equipped with a 40 millimeter dynamic driver. 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth compatibility are required. Of course, it is possible to recharge these headsets wired via USB-C. The battery provides 22 hours of autonomy and 5 minutes of recharging lengthen the gaming session by 60 minutes.
