Does the INZONE H3 work with Xbox or Switch?

Not directly. It connects by USB, so it suits PS5, PS4 and PC. Xbox consoles and the Switch need a USB audio path the H3 does not provide.

Is the microphone detachable?

No, but it flips up out of the way and mutes when raised, which covers most of what a detachable mic would do.

Do I need software for the surround sound?

On PS5, 360 Spatial Sound works through the console's audio settings. On PC you use Sony's INZONE Hub software for spatial audio and EQ.

How does it compare with the INZONE H7 and H9?

The H7 and H9 are wireless with longer battery life and, on the H9, noise cancellation. The H3 is wired only but lighter and simpler, with the same spatial audio support on PS5.

Can I use it for music and calls on a phone?

Only with a USB adapter that supports audio output. There is no Bluetooth or 3.5 mm jack, so most phones cannot drive it directly.

Our take on the Sony INZONE H3

The Sony INZONE H3 is a wired over-ear gaming headset built around PlayStation, with a USB connection and 360 Spatial Sound support on PS5. It uses 40 mm dynamic drivers, a flip-up boom microphone and an on-cable volume control. It is the entry point of Sony's INZONE line, so it skips wireless, Bluetooth and active noise cancellation that the pricier H7 and H9 add. Owners rate it highly for comfort and clear chat audio; the fixed cable and USB-only connection are the main trade-offs.
