Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does Ps4 Have Bluetooth Speaker?

No, the Ps4 doesn’t come with a Bluetooth speaker. Under normal circumstances, the console will use your TV’s speaker or the speaker your TV is connected to.

However, the Ps4 controller has a speaker that you’ll rarely use. In this regard, you need a Bluetooth speaker or a wired external speaker if you need to enhance your gaming experience on a Ps4 with great sound.

Q: Are There Audio Outputs on a Ps4 Pro?

The short answer to this question is yes – the standard Ps4 has 3 audio outputs– HDMI output, a USB output, and an optical out port.
