    the PlayStation Pulse Elite Proclamation

    The 3D audio is amazing! My husband says he can hear everything, down to a pin drop. The soundtracks of the games he’s played are crisp and clear. He no longer has to read subtitles. They rest on his head and ears comfortably. The battery life is exceptional and they last for hours before having to be recharged. The boom mic feature, sliding in and out, is terrific. They came with a nice carrying case that the white set does not come with. The new midnight black color adds a beautiful sleekness to his whole PlayStation setup. Sony has gone above and beyond with this headset. When opening the case one may think that the dongle is missing. We made this mistake and went back to Best Buy to exchange them for a pair with a dongle. After checking the new pair for the blue tooth pairing dongle we discovered that it was camouflaged inside the plastic that held the sync/charging cable. We felt entirely silly. Upon arriving home we found the dongle inside the plastic which had been thrown away. So, it seemed relevant to mail Best Buy the dongle. It may seem like something that can be easily replaced until you learn that each headset is paired with its specific dongle during the post manufacturing process. So, if your dongle gets lost or goes out… I foresee some headaches with that issue. We have seen many people trying to sell these dongles on eBay and even Amazon at relative high cost. Do not purchase these as they will not work on your headsets. On the more critical aspect of this review, my husband says that the headset becomes disconnected to the dongle at times and has to be reconnected in a specific way that is a bit wonky. The dongle is a little unwieldy as to how you have to push it into the usb port, especially if you have to go in through the the rear of the PlayStation 5. You have to literally push in on it in order to make it connect to its partnered headset. All in all, he LOVES it.

    Sony PULSE Elite Wireless Headset

    AMAZING sound quality! Highly recommend setting up the 3D audio feature on the PS5. Clarity is fantastic. Very comfortable headphones. Easily adjustable, fairly durable, sleek design. They don't feel flimsy like other headsets I've owned. Love these headphones all the way around. Battery life is excellent. Charging is easy through both the corded method and the charging dock. Syncing to your PS5 is simple; instructions are provided both digitally and on physical paper. Headphones also come with a convenient, durable, semi-hardshell carrying case. 10/10 would buy again!
