ANC gaming headphones. This is the PC/Playstation version. Looks like a good deal given they came out at around $500 USD, but as others have pointed out, these were a limited run item.

These have not been manufactured since 2022, B&O no longer offer support. Also, these are the Playstation version, not XBOX. You should probably add that to the title OP.
I bought these from Woot! a few months back. They are USB-C and connect to your device with a dongle. They are very light and comfortable and easy to wear for a long period of time. The ANC is good, not great, and I have mainly used them for travel. As a gaming headset, though, I find them to be lacking mainly due to the low bass levels, which really sucks the impact out of moments that should otherwise be loud and powerful.
I bought these and compared to my Bose Quiet Comfort 45 These are way better. Any spatial survival games like Generation Zero makes that game a billion times more fun you can hear each leaf crunch and directional accuracy is epic. Makes my games way more fun. Amazing audio unmatched.

I pre-ordered the Sony pulse elite headphones that come out next month. If it weren't for that, I'd run to get these. Hoping I don't regret my decision

I had the Pulse Explore earbuds wasn't a fan sent them back Ironically I kept the InZone Earbuds really like those but but I might repurchase the Pulse Earbuds now that you can EQ them but no NC was a negative EQing helps tremendously because the sound was crisp I have the Audeze Maxwell also and hoping the Pulse Elite can be close to those it's a tough thing I hope we all kinda get what we want in the end because my wife is tired of me sneaking pass with another box with headphones lol good luck

If you want earbuds that sound as good as Audeze Maxwell get these, I have them and are the best earbuds I've ever heard in my life (no exaggeration):

I waited too long, and now color options are limited. I purchased it anyway. Worse case, I can return it. The pre-order price was MSRP anyway, so I can always get it Sony elite later if it came down to it. Thanks
Once I logged into my account, all the other color options became available.

I grabbed the black ones. which I wanted.

Just give it a shot Woot has a 30 day no questions return policy if u don't like it
I grabbed one and it came in today. I'm very happy with these- haven't heard these details in music for a very long time.
PC & BT is pretty smooth - volume control and such is kinda annoying and confusing but I'll get used to it I guess.
Thanks OP and ruinedx.

Like the previous commenter said, it looks like all the other colors are back in stock. I'm happy with the light grey one, but the Black Anthracite would've been nice.

It takes a little getting used to with the right pressure, speed, motion, etc, but the volume and sidetone strips will be second nature once you get the hang of it. Same deal with the HX, has a bit odd touch controls to get used to. The H95's massive physical dials are the best implementation of this IMO, but of course thats 6x the price.

Glad you like. The Portal for me was a gateway drug for me in trying all the other recent B&O products, and to be honest they all are great for what they are.

Yeah of these colors I like Navy the best also. The stock photos are a little deceiving because the black is not actually black it's more of a very dark gray. The Navy is actually darker than the black is but it has that little blue pop which looks nice. the gold tint of the medallion is also present but more subtle than the photos would infer

for folks that order these the first thing you should do is download and install the bang and olufsen app, pair the device to your phone with the app, then install the firmware updates which are done by placing your phone around 2 inches away from the headset through the air

Can I still use the B&O app's EQ settings if I connect this model to the Xbox controller via 3.5 mm? I have both PS and xbox, but since I mainly play single player on the Playstation and FPS/competitive on the xbox, I want to be able to use the FPS eq setting while wired.

I haven't actually tried it wired but it should remain set in whatever mode you set it to on the app for when connected to Bluetooth only. I don't think FPS EQ is an option though when in Bluetooth only mode, pretty sure that's reserved for the USB dongle - there are different EQs for Bluetooth only and Bluetooth+USB dual mode

Can the dongle be used for the Switch or is it vanilla BT pairing similar to smartphone?

Yes the B&O PS5/PC Portal USB dongle should work on switch, ps5, and PC. But the USB dongle won't work on XBOX.
