Worst experience ever, I lost 1h30 of my life trying to make these “outzone” earbuds to work. Tried it on ps5, pc and phone nada. For your next product Sony please at least make the dongle look decent, it looked like an aliexpress 10cents plastic dongle. Should have known better, and trust bad reviews, that’s on me.

**PS5 USER**
Good headphones, couple of things I feel like could be a little better but overall, very satisfied. I’ll start by saying the number one reason I purchased these was because the battery life on my Razer Hammerhead Hyperspeed earbuds was terrible. Couldn’t play for an hour and a half with those before they died. These headphones have resolved that issue for me. Great battery, decent sound, good mic, very versatile/functional, customizable (from PC). See below for more detailed categories:
Battery:
They will play for 8+ hours without dying. I usually use one bud only so I can still hear my wife and kids while playing. Had a session where the earbud was in my ear for roughly 8-10 hrs and it still had one bar of its battery life (per PlayStation menu). Overall – great battery life, very satisfied
Sound:
The sound is pretty good, not spectacular. I will preface this topic by stating that I have owned several sets of different earbuds from different brands. One of which, is the Samsung Buds2 Pro’s, which are incredible headphones. The sound quality of those Samsung earbuds blow the sound quality of these out of the water. Although sound is important to me, it wasn’t exactly what I was after when purchasing these. If I want to get a full sound and picture video game experience, I will just through on my Sony Pulse over the ear headphones. When just wanting normal sound and chat ability, these will do that just fine.
Mic:
The mic is good. Have had no reports from any of my buddies telling me otherwise
Customizing:
This is the other area where I feel like Sony dropped the ball. I don’t have a very good PC at home, and if you don’t either, you may struggle to adjust these as well. The only way, that I found, to remap the tap controls, sound preferences, and other settings is to download an app on the PC and take the headphones to that PC. MAKE A MOBILE APP. I was surprised I had to do that at all. Every single other set of earbuds I’ve had would do a mobile phone app adjustment. Even the other Razer earbuds that I own has a mobile app. Now, once getting the app downloaded on the PC, everything was good. Customizing was simple and I was able to remap the tap controls to my preference. Would give this subject 4/5 stars based on that lack of Mobile App
Functionality:
These function very well. Open them up, put them in the ears, the PS5 immediately recognizes them and switches to that audio – love it. Tap controls are solid. Good comfortable surface to tap on. Can customize R or L with different commands or same if you prefer that. The biggest reason why I resort to these earbuds while gaming now-a-days is for the versatility. I play a lot of games that I can pause because I often need to drop what I am doing and go take care of the family. I game in my basement – I was up on the second story folding laundry yesterday while still in the party and talking with the guys. It is just nice to not have the traditional bulky headphones on while doing family things. Great for this reason. I will say one thing that I don’t like about these is you can’t use the controller mute function or adjust the volume from the PlayStation quick menu. You have to do it all from the tap controls. The one thing you can still do is adjust a friends volume in the party setting.
Hope this helps anybody considering investing in these. I would expect these to last me the next 4-5 years and they will do everything I need them to do for me. Solid Product

Use these with PC only about 8 hours a day. Insanely comfortable, very reliable (though distance from receiver is not it’s strength, but it works well enough with a wall between it while cleaning etc) and the best 2-stage noise cancelling I have ever heard. Cannot recommend these enough if, like me, you prefer an earbud solution to over ear.

funciono excelente en mi Mac y mi ps5, lamentablemente en pc tiene muchas interferencias, son mucho mas cรณmodos que los pulse explore y sobre todo duran mucho mas la baterรญa, el sonido es aceptable, la cancelaciรณn de ruido sinceramente es pobre, pero aun asรญ es mucho mejor que los pulse explore.

WHY DID I BUY THESE EARBUDS?
I’m primarily a PS5 player, looking for an alternative to the [oversized] over-the-ear headsets (Astro A50 to be exact), and I needed decent mic quality that no one complains about in the party chat. After 2+ weeks of testing and tinkering to my liking, in one sentence.. I can say these earbuds have met all my primary needs.
Feel free to read on to see what else it does and does not do for me, and my thoughts on how it may compare to the PlayStation branded Pulse Explore earbuds.
BLUETOOTH! Major compatibility problem for most. I was well aware of it’s limited connectivity when I got it, and I have a Galaxy S23 so it is one of the few phones with BT LE. It works, granted my first attempt at connection did not go well.. I was only hearing from one earbud and mic was not picking up. I was going to write it off and deduct a star from my score but.. My S23 got a system update this week, I retried connecting, and it worked just as well any other earbuds should.
PC/PS5/PHONE APPLICATIONS. Nocompanion app for the phone, none on the PS5, but I did my configurations on PC and the app is very easy to use and customize the earbud functions, add or remove functions etc. for example there are 3 noise cancelling/ambient modes to swap between, I reduced it to 2 for simplicity. There are probably more in-depth youtube videos on the app.
ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLING. Great.
AUDIO & MIC. I’m not an audiophile by any means, but they do sound great. I’ve been playing Warzone, Spider-Man 2, Resident Evil 4 and Gran Turismo 7 since I got them, I want to say I’m hearing just as well as I do with the Astro A50 and maybe better since I believe it’s employing spatial/3D audio whereas I’ve stuck with the old 5.1 audio on my headset.
Mic quality I’ve been told is good, it was too loud initially but I turned the sensitivity down on the PS5 to around level 3 and other than the first person I tested it with no one since has said anything like “put the Astros back on your mic is trash” cause they haven’t noticed a massive drop off in quality. Win in my books cause these are earbuds.
PS5 FUNCTIONALITY. All controls you could do on a PS Pulse headset are here, volume+/-, chat/game balance, and mute. Unfortunately that also means the Mute button on the Dualsense controller will no longer mute the mic, you’ll have to initiate it from the buds. It will also display the volume balances, battery life and mic status on screen.
So I’ve customized the taps on the earbuds like this: (L) one tap = mute, two taps = Vol-, 3 = ANC on/off, long hold for game audio balance | (R) one tap = mute, two taps = Vol+, 3 = blank, long hold for chat audio balance. I’ve gotten used to these settings and making quick adjustments I need feels natural for me. In the PC app you can tailor the potential 4 function buttons each to your liking.
COMFORT. You may have heard these are among the most comfortable earbuds you can get. I won’t be the person to say otherwise. It comes with 4 sets of tips in addition to the ones placed on them. I felt discomfort in the original tips after about 2 hours with the default tips, I sized it down one and these fit perfectly. I’ve had it in my ears for as long as 6 hours in one sitting and its almost unnoticeable.
BATTERY LIFE. As I just mentioned, I had it on for an entire 6 hour session before, from what I remember they were still above 50%. These will last as long as you should need them to.
WHAT DON’T I LIKE? Well the bluetooth compatibility is very very limited, only a few Android phones released this year will connect to it. So it won’t connect to my iPhone, it wont connect to a smart TV, smart watches, nothing else that your other earbuds could. But, it may be connecting to your future purchases as BT LE becomes more common.
And while on the subject of bluetooth, no simultaneous audio from the transceiver and the BT device. It will automatically swap if you receive a call, or you can manually fully switch over by holding both buds at the same time for a few seconds, but you cannot get audio from both at the same time.
You may be able to hear that white noise if nothing else is being played and you’re sensitive to that.
No wireless charging case.
THOUGHTS ON THE PULSE EXPLORE BUDS. The Pulse Explore may be functionally the same as the Inzone Buds, but compatible with almost all your bluetooth devices and I believe it will do simultaneous audio. That is probably where the advantages stop though, I’ve read there is no ANC, no button customizability, and the volume buttons may not work over bluetooth. For these reasons, I can’t see how they can be better than the Inzone Buds, but simultaneous audio and compatibility may be more important to someone else. I ordered a pair for science, I may update this section when it releases next month.
*** UPDATE *** I tried the pulse earbuds for a week, didn’t like them as much. It’s just as I suspected above, but the simultaneous bt audio isn’t enough for me to give up the comfort and the customizability of the taps on these Inzone Buds.
So these are all my thoughts on the Inzone Buds. Anything I left out may just not have been that important to me personally. $200 is steep, but I think they’re worth it overall.

Tiene una curva de aprendizaje para usarlos ya que para cambiar de modos entre el adaptador y el modo Bluetooth se tienen que tener los dos conectados, y a veces presentan una saturaciรณn de ruido o bajo que afecta la calidad pero es algo muy puntual que ocurre en escasas ocasiones
