PlayStation PULSE Explore Wireless Earbuds with Charging Case, for PS5, White

You have to learn how they fit in your ear but once and being able to play my games while connected to my phone so I don't miss any calls and just keep playing

The idea of having ear buds for my portal was something that really appealed to me. Call me a sucker, but the Portal style design and color scheme appealed to me even more. I just really like my systems and the equipment I use for them to match in design scheme, branding, and coloring. I know. It's probably not something that is important to other people and I understand that. I'm willing to bet that there are better quality ear buds that work great with a portal made by some other company in a completely different color or design. If that's what you are looking for or you don't really care about who makes it or what they look like, you will probably not like these as much as I do. To me though, these pass the eye test, which as I said I put a lot of stock in. As far as performance goes, these aren't poor quality by any means. The battery seems to last around 4 - 6 hours which is plenty more than I need for any of my mobile gaming sessions. They work with a PS5 too, but typically if I'm sitting down in front of my system and using a mic and headphones, I'm going with an over ear style. The sound quality is well above average. Laying in bed playing portal, I can crank up the sound and get auditory immersion with deep bass tones and loud cracking gunfire without disturbing my sleeping wife. The volume is powerful enough that I forget I'm wearing them and focus completely on what is going on on screen. I only have two small criticisms that keep me from giving these a perfect 5. The fit can be a little awkward. It usually takes me a few minutes to get them secured and comfortable in my ear to where I don't fear them falling out with normal head movement. Once they are in they are good, but it doesn't go right in easily. Secondly, the case is great in design and looks cool, but it's a little bit on the large side. They don't fit easily in a pocket like Apple earbuds, and getting the buds back in their ports takes some attention to what you're doing rather than just dropping them in. Overall though, the quality is good. Better than just good enough. I have some over ear JBL headphones, and these are just as good if not better in ear bud form. The design is outstanding and no other product looks like it belongs in your PlayStation setup better than these. The quality overall is what you'd expect from Sony and I would definitely recommend them, especially to the gamer who values the PlayStation design scheme.
