I have these and they're pretty good at this price. Sound quality is pretty high and it's the only thing that can connect to my PS Portal. I like that they also connect to my PS5 Pro and can be connected to my phone at the same time. I don't really wear them out since the look is a bit too out there for my tastes and I have the latest Samsung buds. I only use them for my Playstation devices and for that they work well.

Community Reviews

PlayStation PULSE Explore earbuds are built for low lag PlayStation use, especially with the PS Portal, while also pairing with a phone at the same time. The standout strengths are the dongle connection, clear sound, and easy switching between PS5 audio and Bluetooth, with some praise for directional audio and the ability to use them instead of a bulky headset. The main drawbacks are the bulky case and earbuds, short battery life around five to six hours, no active noise canceling, and reports of weak mic quality or occasional disconnects. Fit can improve with better tips, making them a more specialized gaming pick than an all day travel earbud.

Common Questions (5)

Yes. It can connect to a PS Portal or PS5 through the PlayStation Link dongle while also pairing to a phone over Bluetooth, so you can hear game audio and phone audio together. That makes it especially useful for handheld gaming, podcasts, or Discord while playing.

At $99 they are a much better value than at the $199 MSRP, especially if you want the Portal/PS5 wireless setup and simultaneous phone audio. If you only need ordinary Bluetooth earbuds for a phone, cheaper options exist.
Eguy5555309 KingDiablo Hooktonfonnix cate_
Battery life is around 5 to 6 hours per charge, with the case adding roughly two more charges. That is enough for a long session, but it is not class-leading and may feel short if you use them heavily for gaming or TV.
Eguy5555309 cate_TheFudge
It does not have active noise cancellation, and the mic is reported as weak out of the box. Fit and setup can improve both sound and mic performance, but the microphone is still a common complaint.
Eguy5555309 Noeazybuckets TheFudge
Yes. Using larger foam or silicone tips and following the insertion instructions can noticeably improve seal, sound, and mic performance. The included small tips can make the audio sound thin or tinny until the fit is corrected.

Use a 3.5 jack Bluetooth transmitter on the Portal.

I tried this but couldnt get the transmitter to work at all. Can you post what you used? Thanks

These suck. The over the head ones are pretty solid and have great connectivity. You can definitely get better, but the seamless connectivity is great.

Quote from TheFudge

Connecting to phone I didn't even think about, nice. I picked them up yesterday. Coming from using 30 dollar Anker p30s, and pulse headset for PS5, it's not bad at all after tweaking it. It sounded shtty and tinny at first but they give you itty bitty tips, I needed the larger ones to keep the sound in. After 2 hours of helldivers 2 and monster hunter wilds some anime testing, it sounds better in ear for me. It's more 3d than immersive 7d headset but I'm not pvping. It works. I wouldn't pay 200 for it, but yea it sounds really good with portal too instead of my wired cheap headset. I was at 50% around 3 hrs of use. I will keep them. Also mic was crappy at first then everything lined up and both mic and sound became good.

This is the way, replacing the small tips with some appropriately sized quality foam or silicone ones out of the gate really elavates these for Portal or PS5 use. Also reading the include directions on how properly to insert into ear.
