Sony makes some of the Best Headphones and Earbuds. If you’re looking for Crispy Sound with a Stylish Design, Sony won’t disappoint. It’s a Slick Design, that fit perfectly in your Ears. The Case makes it easy to Charge them, especially if you have a PlayStation 5. You can just use One of the Back USB Ports. You can pair the Earbuds with your PS5, 4, Portable and other Smart Devices, like your Smartphone. The Case is kinda over Protective, it’s like having Two different Cases of Protection. There’s the Case that Housed the Earbuds, that’s also Encased in a Soft Fabric Case with a Magnetic Seal. If you going to buy a PlayStation 5 or Portable or both, than you need Sony Pulse Earbuds. They come in Midnight Black and White. I needed a pair.

The pulse Explorer are double-edged sword. I do hand it to Sony. They made a beautiful pair of earbuds, but the sound quality compared to the Pulse Elite. Is night and day the Pulse Elite sound much better. They're more crisp and they give you a better audio experience when you're gaming although there is one feature they both share and that's the annoying disconnection where you have to For quite some time the PS link dongle which gets annoying due to it happening when you're in the middle of a game. Now these on the other hand connect way too much that I didn't bother trying them on my PlayStation 5 Pro and the sad part is I can't return them back to the store. But I'm glad I have OfferUp and I can sell them there for a decent price overall. It's not a pair of earbuds that I recommend and Sony should have left things like they were on the PS3 and allowed people to use generic earbuds or headphones to do online gaming instead of going with this proprietary earbud garbage. Do I recommend them? Yes, and no. It's a double-edged sword. The only thing that ruin some is the fact that they disconnect way too much acid way too much.
