For me, I love my Pulse 3D, however, they just feel too tight whenever I use it in combination with my PSVR2. So these’ll be perfect for that! Not sure how often I’ll be wearing them for anything other than the PSVR2, might use them on certain occasions for PC, when I use both my iPhone and PC or Mac, right now I just wear a headset over my AirPods Pro, so those are really the only two use cases I can find where I benefit from having them. So maybe I’ll wait for a price drop

All I wanted was some comfortable wireless ear buds that sound good and oh boy have Sony delivered here. I use these for Siege and I can truly hear now.

Here’s a question I have regarding the Pulse Explore. Do they have Noise Cancellation? Meaning they isolate most sounds to make sure whatever it is you’re listening to is the only thing you’re listening to. Very like how certain headphones have that feature like the Beats Studio Pro, Sony XM5 and Air Pods Max. I think that feature would be ideal if I were to bring my Portal to another person’s use or a restaurant with WiFi and I want to listen to my game without having to worry about background noises.

They don’t have Active Noise Cancellation but you can get pretty good passive noise isolation with the right fitting ear tip.

@@illogik i think a lot of people don't realize that mainstream "reviewers" don't actually know much of what they are talking about & sound is very subjective the big thing that planars do different is delivering a wider soudstage & higher quality audio & if you tweak the eq's afterwards to your liking you end up having incredibly high level audio matched with your prefered type of sound i was just saying that planar magnetics are generally better for sound & was comparing them to the audeze maxwells as i have those i said it in my comment but i do not have these buds & likely will not feel free to go & watch a few videos on planar magnetic drivers & the audeze maxwells & i am sure you'll only hear good things about the quality of audio for the money but then again some people don't know much & prefer 20 dollar earbuds priced to 300 dollars because it's the next trendy thing to buy lmao
