The PlayStation Pulse Explore wireless earbuds are true wireless in-ear monitors built specifically for the PS5, PC/Mac, and PlayStation Portal, featuring custom planar magnetic drivers and simultaneous Bluetooth connectivity
Audio and Performance
- Planar magnetic drivers: Deliver studio-inspired, highly detailed sound and low distortion for gaming.
- PlayStation Link: Provides a lossless, ultra-low latency wireless connection via the included USB adapter (built natively into the PlayStation Portal).
- Dual connectivity: Supports simultaneous PlayStation Link and Bluetooth, letting you listen to music or take phone calls from a mobile device while hearing game audio
- AI-enhanced mic rejection: Filters background noises during voice chat using artificial intelligence.
Design and Battery Life
- Battery limits: Lasts up to 5 hours on a single charge, with the bulky charging case providing an extra 10 hours.
- Missing features: Lacks Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and a dedicated mobile app for sound customization outside of the PS5 console.
- Fit considerations: Somewhat bulky chassis design, though multiple silicone tip sizes are included in the box
