Almost all analog headphones work on the console
Analog headphones (those with a connection 3.5 mm minijack) are more compatible with the PS4 and Xbox One, though not to mention its features. This is because both the PS4 and Xbox controller are optimized for it, and we will simply plug it in, adjust the audio output to the options (for example on the PS4 we have to go to devices -> Audio Devices -> Headphone output -> All sounds) and we can listen to all console through headphones without doing anything else.
Even on-ear headphones come to you when you buy smartphone work with no problem.
Now, when the headphones connection is USB, this thing is changing again because not everyone will be compatible with the console. Some will work with no problems, but nothing to assure us … except some comforting headphones. There is yes. For example, for example, Corsair Virtuoso Wireless, is a wireless router with a USB receiver that works perfectly with the consoles, and this is referenced by the manufacturer.
Licensing and Compliance
In most cases, the headphones are sold as console-specific such as these for two reasons: first because they have checked and verified compatibility, even those on USB. And secondly, for a license issue, or in other words, the ability to use the PS4 brand in the integration or aesthetics of the product.
For example Razer Thresher Ultimate for the Xbox One, headphones work well on a PC, but they are sold as an Xbox One specification and they use the logo and console name in packaging, a clean marketing strategy to lure console users.
So, no difference?
Yes they are. More than just some headphones compatibility is guaranteed For consoles, as a general rule even those with 3.5mm minioker analog connectors have some concrete transformations
As such, console-specific headlines tend to be light in terms of sound quality. For example, the PS4 stays on the PS4 so it always has the same sound card, so that manufacturers can adjust the calibration parameters of their headphones to it sounds better in that console directly
However, we can tell you that the console headset will always work on a PC, either via USB or an analog connector, but it might not be the other way around. Also, just about any headset with a 3.5mm minioker connector will still work without problems.
