- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มิ.ย. 2024
- Both the Sony INZONE Buds and the Playstation Pulse Explore are $200 truly wireless earbuds (TWS) that work on PC, PS5, and more. Both have completely different approaches to the almost same solution, and will please different people. In this review I cover features and functions, sound quality, game performance, and more!

All - It has been brought to my attention that if you use the Inzone Buds in PC mode, you can use the controller functions to adjust volume, chat, and mute. This is a huge finding. Thanks to much @tazfas for letting me know. For everyone reading this, do you think I should re-film the video now that this has been brought to light? Everything else is the same, and they still get just as loud. You just have to max out both volumes for max audio output.
When it comes to transferring equalizer from PC Inzone Hub app to PS5 for Sony Inzone Buds, it does not allow that to happen. Did you find the same result for Inzone buds when it comes to transferring equalizer? Thanks soo much.
Great review. Now I am back again using Sony Inzone Buds for PS5 games lol
The pulse elite adjusts volume and pauses music as well on PC.
Are there any drawbacks to using PC mode on PS5? Why even have two modes if PS5 just greys out features?
@@solidcrusader8959 I've seen others say this as well, that what you do on the PC side doesn't carry over. Is this true?
I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. I bet it has been a difficult week. Even as a creator, I fully believe you should still take time for you and your family first (algorithm understood, but you matter FIRST). Your content is so thorough, knowledgeable, and relaxing to watch. Do what you need to do, I'm not going anywhere.
Losing a dog is so rough. Sorry to hear it. Thanks to all your stuff. This vid is particularly relevant to me, so cheers a mil bud
You kept your word and did a comparison between these two. I appreciate it!
I’m so sorry to hear about your dog!
What’s up brother am thinking about ordering the Schiit hel 2+ there it a switch in the front and the back can u tell me of the switches supposed to be up or down in the front and the back?
Sorry for your lost I really wish you the best and hope everything is good
The comparison I've been needing. I know some overlooked features have you thinking of re-recording, but I still think Inzone is the one for me.
Even before this, so many Pulse reviews have been negative. Great review.
So sorry about your dog, and to still be able to get back making videos, massive respect from me man.
Sorry for your loss mate.
I bought the inzone buds and I like them but I been looking forward to watch this review
First time watching your channel, great comparison video, really enjoyed that. New sub from me, great work. Sorry to hear about your dog,
Just giving you advice! Work on thumbnails, Your videos has so much potential.
Great video btw!
Thanks great video
I think the major point for me is battery life. Inzone 12 hours is pretty awesome. My only gripe is is that even though I'm fairly close to the transmitter, I'm getting some audio signal glitches. The buds are very comfortable for my ears, more comfortable that most buds I've had.
Ho visto molte vostre videorecensioni sulle cuffie, ma vorrei qualche consiglio da voi sulle migliori cuffie gaming con microfono, non importa se wireless o cablate, ma anche con un bel audio generale tra Corsair virtuoso pro, razerblackshark v2 hyperspeed /pro (non edizione 2023), epos H6 pro open o qualcos'altro da te consigliato in questa fascia di prezzo, grazie
I wanted to ask, did you ever try trying 3rd party tips with the pulse explore? If so, are there any that helped solve the issue with getting a good seal?
I had both the inzone buds, and the pulse explorer buds. To be honest I decided to keep the pulse explorer buds it's because overall after purchasing the correct ear tips and getting a proper seal for me it just put them over the top. I enjoyed both but the planar drivers just simply are amazing and the deep base shines through. Lastly the inzone buds didn't work on my phone at all and as far as the mic if I spoke normally it sounded like I was screaming which I had to turn the mic volume all the way down. The inzones are definitely the most comfortable buds I've worn before. Great video by the way, and sorry to hear about your dog😢.
inzone are 10 times louder
@@joesipr do you feel that they are way louder than the explore earbuds after adjusting the EQ settings on the explore earbuds?
@@TheColdest247 i have the explorer buds for 2 days there not a set up that make they sound louder ,the volumen is low i try every tips every band in the EQ yeah they have a clear sounds, yes they look beautifull , no more, i return they and was little sad because try to like it, next day buy the inzone and really are 10 times louder when make the eq , wow they are beautifull , the anc is a game changer too
@joesipr I might have to give the inzones another try. I love my explore earbuds with the planar drivers but if I can find a decent pair of inzones used I'll probably grab them to see which ones I like better. To really enjoy the explore I had to find the proper ear tips which don't come with them, but once I did it was a game changer.
@@TheColdest247 but the problem with the explorer are the low volumen not matter what tips u use , going to sound better more bass etc etc but its low volumen was the thing that kill me i really try to love it ,in the inzones i used the L tips honestly with the ANC and custom EQ they have a beautifull sound ,
Great review as always. I know tws buds typically have poor mic performance, but did you test these mic on these?
Thanks! 15:18
Totally missed that! The inzone buds sounds good enough and loud. Thanks!
Quick question...Does the FPS EQ you made for the Pulse Elite also work well with the Pulse Explore? I ask because I own both and they sound drastically different to me. Even when I apply the same EQ to both. Thanks in advance.
Thank you for a amazing review
I want to buy inzone buds can i use it on ps4?
are the Inzone buds anywhere near the Maxwell sound quality? I have Maxwells but I want to try something in-ear and wireless
Can you post inzone setting along with the eq for best performance please for ps5 use.
Sorry for the loss of your dog alway heartbreaking when you lose them.xx
The party chat mix can only be adjusted through the menu, but it is also only PSN party. You can' t mix the chat party in game from the PSN menu while using the pulse elite or explore. Can you confirm if the edge controller can adjust both PSN party and game party while using the pulse or explore?
Yeah the Edge controller can control party chat (if active) on the PS Explore. With the INZONE Buds, if you switch the dongle to PC mode, it works there too!
Can you do a video about sonar for streamer?
I wonder if im able to use the inzone buds straight out of the usb on my tv
I changed tips on my pulse explorers and there’s definitely bass.
Same here after finding the correct ear tips the bass is unmatched. They even handled bass better than the pulse elites I purchased which happens to be awesome as well.
Maximizing honesty not money 👏
gadgetry which one is better for hearing footsteps in call of duty
Hey just wanted to ask can you use an adaptor to use the dongle with an iPhone I haven’t tried yet just wanted to know if anyone else has
How many mm is the driver of the inzone?
Sorry to hear about your dog, please take as much time as needed, it is a big thing.
must have Sonic foam eartips SF2 for pulse explores upgrade
which headset do you recommend the best for pc and ps5 use?
I have the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro and love them. Seen them for $70 less than the full retail price i paid, and at that price theyre definitely worth it.
FINAL AUDIO TYPE E ARE GREAT EARTIPS FOR PULSE EXPLORE IF YOU GET SEAL ISSUES BUY FINAL TYPE E BLACK OR CLEAR
Final EZ 3000 Ultra guard version are currently £85 from hifi headphones UK
use pc mode on ps5 and you can use everything
Well, I feel dumb now for missing that. I'll pin a comment. Honestly this is a big enough deal where I'm debating re-filming the video
Whats PC mode? Didn't know there was one on the ps5
mic honestly sounds pretty decent for earbuds like better then their headset wtf
Has anybody tried either for codmobile? 😅
Thanks for the vid. I had both to test and ended up keeping the Explore. They just sound better and the simultaneous BT is a must.
I'd say, if you're looking for a single all-around set to use on everything, go with the Inzone. If you're like me and just want some sick gaming buds for when you don't want to use a headset, Explore can't be beat. I already have multiple TWS buds for other devices.
As usual, thanks for the vid!
I've heard so many issues with keeping connection to the ps5, how's that been?
@@maisondav1d Rock solid for me.
the volumen is trash inzone sound 10 times louder
@@joesipr Yeah my hearing isn't bad, so they get plenty loud for me.
first
Rip. Idk if you care to hear this. But ive been studying NDE. Long story short God has your dog in heaven bro. I was skeptical but look into it. Science backs it up!!
