    What an awful design, just like the ps5 😅

      @@NextNate03 Was hoping the ps5 slim would junk the form factor. And why white ? It should be available in other colours and not force you into buying coloured covers.

    Definitely interested in picking this up for PSVR2 use, the Pulse 3D just sits a bit too tight while playing VR, so hopefully these’ll do just fine!

      Probably the only use-case that really makes any sense. Otherwise alternative buds would be better for sound and noise cancellation, as well as price.

    Why does Sony keep using dongles?

    Could they built the receiver into the PS5 Slim?

    • @Ziffypoo

      Sony is just money hungry with their proprietary dongles

    • @user-ds8rj2vc4v

      December 2, 2023 at 7:13 pm

      It’s their go-to with their accessories. They tend to feel kinda cheap and poorly made, but charge a premium price-tag due to the Playstation branding on it.

    • @Jdb63

      December 3, 2023 at 11:57 am

      That’s my question as well. If PlayStation Link is built into the PS Portal, why wouldn’t they also build it into the PS5 slim? Makes no sense

    Did i just hear in the video that the portal doesnt support bluetooth earbuds 😂 what a joke. Cant believe people are buying this over MSRP on ebay from resellers, id rather buy a steam deck, rog ally, or legion which both offer much better options and dont depend on another device for gaming. But of course if someone who is looking to just plug and play type of device than this device is for you. Although if i were them id wait until the price drops on these cause overpaying for these devices is not worth it unless your some rich guy with money to spend and throw away.

    Or can you change the volume with you PS5 Dual Sense Edge controler with the FN buttons?

    I just got the Inzone buds in nov….way longer battery life and very comfortable. I’ve forgot they r in the ears a few times 😅already. The only bad part is no way to control chat and volume without using the app on a computer. Other then that they’re good.
