      I just get them from second hand $150. I was afraid at first impression with music but in fact they are good : Yes they have real BASS with the good in near adapter ! So they are very good for games, clear and nice spatialization too ! and finally they good for music Not on the console but connected simultaneously to a Smartphone with equalizer APP like XEQ. and this system is convenient, manipulable and always connected to music on smartphone even by turning off the console.
      I will most use them for PSVR2, or to change from my HyperX loving headset. You are right about 2 points : no noise isolation, equalizer on Console would be welcome.
      About battery life, it should not be forgotten that they use a very low latency connection, the few other headphones existing with Dongle have the same duration. The INZONE is a mystery on this point... there is surely something that is not taken into account.

    I just got mine from the wife for Xmas. I agree that these are specific for the PS5 and for most people they aren’t worth the money. I will say I think they are if you are console exclusive. First, I wasn’t initially wowed by the sound, used the large tips, but there is a caveat to this that I’m surprised Sony didn’t include: I changed the tips out like suggested online. I used my psvr2 earbud tips since they are the same diameter and more coned shaped. Made a big difference. Initially, before the tip swap, I thought that the clarity was outstanding. I noticed sounds on COD that I just didn’t realize or pay attention to. The 3d audio is awesome. I always like more bass, but feel like they are about the same as AirPod pros. After the tip swap everything is even better. They feel more comfortable, block out the noise, and sound even better. The lack of other options doesn’t bother me as I use an edge controller that allows volume level adjustments on the fly. I say swap the tips and give them a chance.

    Personally I’m loving the Pulse explores so far but I’m only using them for PS5 gaming and nothing else. I have AirPod Pros for going out and about but the Pulse Explores are perfect for my use case at home. I struggle with over ear headphones as a glasses user so these are so much comfier for me (I may just be lucky that these fit my ears really well). The sound quality is also excellent and comparing them to my Pulse 3D headset I picked up at launch there’s a big difference.

    I bought a pair and I've had them for almost a month now, they haven't disconnected not a single time while gaming on my PS5, the only real issue I've had is the ear piece. They tend to move a lot for me. The audio compared to my headphones I've been using for years now is way better, clearer, and louder, obviously not nowhere near as high end as expensive headphones but they work very well. Honestly it's a head or miss type of product.

    I have an AstroA50, AirPods Pro2 and the pulse explore. I love them. I was worried at first because many people thought they had no bass and sounded tinny, but fortunately that's not the case. They simply sound precise and clear. Ive never had so much fun playing games. Bass is there when its needed even with default settings. Im thrilled. In comparison AirPods or the astro a50 sound soft. I think that's what many people mean by bassheavy. Pairing with Bluetooth on the mobile phone and gaming on the ps5 at the same time is also very nice. I love this feature. The only negative thing was actually the problem of getting them to fit properly in the ear at the beginning. But once you get the hang of it it works

  • @jeffcarrier9808

    We can't expect the range on the earbuds to be good because it would be a MUCH shorter wavelength than standard bluetooth... the whole point of Pulse Explore is the reduced latency and lossless. Those will come with some tradeoffs. Do you ever talk about the latency difference? The lossless audio?

    I don’t need these to be ridiculously loud. But don’t people notice that these seem to max out at 75% volume compared to other earbuds? I notice this the most when connected to my phone for media/music. Sound quality has been great when gaming, I can hear everything but I am bothered by them not reaching a good volume when listening to music this is amplified by the fact that they don’t have ANC and when out and about they struggle against the ambient noise in the environment.

    Are The Pulse Explore earbuds worth 200$?
    Well I just got my pair yesterday. As a veteran earbud user (i have a strong dislike of over ear headphones) my air pods pro 2nd gen are my daily drivers. I can't speak for if everyone will like these. there are some aspects I don't like. No transparency or noise cancelation.
    However the good stuff outweighs the bad flawless connection to my PS5, the 3d audio is fantastic so now I can use my PSVR2 for longer.
    However the capper, what really made these worth it for me. The ability to have PS5 audio and music from my phone overlayed.
    If you have these headphones. Just load up Doom Eternal and play Victory by Two Steps From Hell. You will have an experience that defies explanation.
    So for me, worth every penny.

    The buds fit great for me. I must say $50 less would be better, but the dual sound mix with phone and PS5 is the best. I love to listen to dub and game while streaming and I can with these. Also I use to only use headset. But now my skin is getting irritated from the bands and fabric. Getting old is a thing with skin sensitivity along with glasses being pinched between the headset my ear . No more ear sweating either. Yes you can just use 1 bud at a time as well. Like you mentioned ckid. Sony did drop a few balls on this. But made some interesting ones too.

    I say that there are perfect for the quality that you're going to get from your portal. It is all streaming.. And you're paying for the convenience that it hooks up to the portal wirelessly basically and that low proprietary frequency crap.. When you get home and you around your ps5 you can just put your inzones on.. The inzone is their premium side of sound quality.. I have the h9 and it is a dream on shooters..

    If only you can turn up voice chat and background game play. I like more voice chat and a little background game play but cant do that, unless there’s something I’m missing in the settings. U can shut background off completely. But that’s not how i want it. Went back to my headphones until I find a solution. Audio was ok.

    You MUST have the correct earpad size in as well or youre base and slubd is going to be bad. If theyre falling out then they arent big enough OR your esrs sweet real bad on the inside. Audio is not bad at all with these earbuds. Theyre great for earbuds. I think thry should be $150 though. But like i tell everyone when it comes to earbuds, it always seems like everyone has different experiences and thats got to be how they fit differently in peoples ear. As far as 5 hours of battery life goes thats as long as my pro controller lasts. I think touch volume would be perfect. Right ear tap to increase. Left ear tap to decrease. Mmm

    You keep mention in the price, but everybody's wallet aint the same.😅broke people are going to say two hundred dollars is too much no matter how great it is. It's the quality of the sound that's the most important imo the price is 2nd. Just like everyone's ears aren't gonna have issues like you had. In terms of the best earbuds to wear for PS5, I think these are the best. I would also wear them just in general for my t v or tablet, so their versatile. Also, I'm sure they will update the PS5 to include more features to sync with the earbuds. Like they did what they do Edge it just takes time.

    Why on earth does everyone make SUCH a big deal about wireless ear buds for the Portal? Yeah I get it its a little annoying but using a high quality wired bud does not take away from the experience. I just don't understand the hate of no blue tooth and need to use these 2 ear phones exclusively for the Portal. $200 for ear buds is insane in my book especially since you can buy $50 wired ear buds that work amazing.
