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.

    Do not buy these. They have a disconnect defect and Sony STILL hasn't issued a patch to address all these disconnects. The issue has been talked about at length all over the internet. The "troubleshooting" steps on their website do not work. The buds disconnect around 15 times in 20 mins of play. It's just ridiculous. I ended up buying the Sony Inzone buds instead. They sound so much better and best of all they've been rock solid on all platforms. It's so strange that they cost the same price. One is solid and a good value. One is utter garbage. Planar Magnetic Drivers are cool in IEMs but this isn't how you do it.

    Amazing that it can connect to multiple devices simultaneously via Bluetooth feeding you all the audio at once. Con is it has physical volume controls on buds the buds themselves as far as wearing them is a learning curve along with how their design their not comfortable also it seems to be buggy because connection at least via ps5 it's in and out. I would try the inzone buds for same price.

    I am pleased with the overall sound quality of these earbuds, as they allow me to play music simultaneously on both my mobile device and either the PS5 or PS portal.

    Pretty good to have when you travel away from home. But price is a bit too high for its quality. Should’ve been $100 tbh

    I’ve been seeing some mixed reviews and hesitated to purchase them. I’m glad I did end up buying a pair. First thing first it is a PlayStation product so specific features can only be used on the PS5 or portal. You can connect to your phone via Bluetooth but as I stated before the features are pretty much not there for a phone. I did try the double connection so hearing my game and taking a phone call from my phone was pretty neat to do. If you’re looking for some earbuds and have a PS I do recommend but if you want to use them for mainly a phone I would recommend other wireless earbuds.

    Randomly disconnects and then re connects to ps5. Sometimes they dosconnect completely without attempting to pair again causing me to have to manually unplug the adaptor and pair the earbuds again.
