    I’m very happy with this purchase. The sound quality is excellent, clear, and well balanced. They are very comfortable to wear, even for long periods, and fit securely without falling out. The battery life is great and the connection is fast and stable. They work perfectly with my device and look very sleek and modern. Definitely worth the price — I highly recommend them

    Very disappointed in these. The sound quality is okay but the mic quality is terrible. My friends complained about how I sounded horrible whenever I used these. I switched back to the regular pulse headset.

    The audio sounded low quality, they felt uncomfortable and when I took them off it even hurt my ears a little. I feel like they are not worth $200.

    PS Explore Earbuds

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The PlayStation Explore Earbuds are great for people like me who aren’t a big fan of big headsets. The sound quality is pretty good once you figure out how they go in your ears. Connectivity for me was easy and haven't had any problems with them disconnecting. They work good for listening to music on your phone but they do lack the bass, which isn’t really a bother for me. I’m mainly just wanting them strictly to use on my PS5. Not sure how solid the mic is, haven’t had the opportunity to use it yet. They could come down a little bit on the price as well. Other than that, I’m enjoying the earbuds!

    Gamer review

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Good audio quality for gaming, battery life is about twice the controller life, comfortable fit, and has different ear piece sizes. Comes with a usb-c charger. Connection range is about 10-15 feet from the usb receiver. Although, they do randomly disconnect and reconnect while in range (little annoying). Simple to use and connect. Very much plug and play. Haven’t connected to a phone so I have no opinion on the side of it. Overall enjoy the product.

    Good for same rom gaming, bleh for convenance

    I bought these to go with my portal. Sound is good and they are comfy enough. I generally use them when I want a free ear to listen out for household. The two big pains are that you really need to be in the same room as your ps5 to use them. With the portal I can be anywhere in the house which is great, but these will not work beyond 20-30 ft from unit. Additionally, you need to press the button on the usb to pair these every time and they need to be in the case to pair. So, when I go to turn on ps5, I need to have the buds in the case, go over and press the button on the usb, wait for blue light then pull them out and put in ear. The over head headphones have been way more reliable and don't require the usb. I'll keep them because they are more comfortable for single ear gaming. But I do wish they were executed a bit better.
