Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the impressive sound quality and comfortable fit of the PULSE Explore Wireless Gaming Earbuds for PS5. Many appreciate the decent battery life and sleek design. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding connection issues and the relatively high price point. Additionally, a few users feel the earbuds could benefit from improved bass and a higher maximum volume.

    Really "good sounding" earbuds, However the con is that they do "Occasionally" disconnect for no reason.

    There are a few things holding this product back. Positives: Supports Direct low latency connection to PS5 Supports Bluetooth Can be used with PS portal Negatives: The eartips that come with it are not very comfortable and do not seal. You can use aftermarket tips. Two they need to be seated in your ear a very specific way and do not feel very secure. Buttons are hard to press. They disconnect randomly when connected to PS5 Overall I cant reccomend these with the disconnection issue. Also for the price the sound is nothing impresive compared to other earbuds in the same range.

    My wife absolutely loves these. They work great in the game and they even let you listen to music on the phone at the same time. Sometimes it won't connect to the phone, but putting them in the case and back in your ears fixes it.

    The concept of these earbuds is cool. Biggest issues are keeping a consistent connection. They have very limited range and drop to much for me to keep them.

    They are ok, but very bulky and hard to stay in ears, no noise cancelation etc. Best feature is being able to use two devices at the same time, so u could listen to music and game at the same time

    They fit great, they sound good when they work but they disconnect every 20-30 minutes when connected to a PS5. They reconnect after a few seconds after disconnecting but this happens every 20-30 minutes and it gets old any annoying really quickly. Also, the battery on the left earbud dies so quick compared to the right earbud. I get maybe an hour max of battery life. Stay away from these until sony fixes them.

    A great pair of earbuds for the PS5. The sound on these are great and well balanced. Also the EQ setting are great to use on them. I would highly recommend these. However, the mic isn’t the greatest. Other than that, it’s a must to have in the collection.

    Bought these for my husband to go with the portal that i got him and he uses these all the time. No issues with these or connecting them. The price is high, not worth it but overall the buds are great.

    I enjoy the fact i dont have to wear the over the ear headphones anymore. These have great audio and connect easily to phone and ps5. Definitely would recommend for gaming. Works well with every game ive tried so far, call of duty, 2k, god of war etc.
