part of this post is so I don't buy this yet and also interested to hear from users that have these Pulse Elites.

yes it's been posted for $179 before but they just released them in Midnight black colour which I am in love with. 🥰 makes them look like futuristic headphones. also it's wireless planar with 53hrs battery for $200.

you could buy a $200 GC right now and knock another $5 off the price making it $194 Shipped.

if you have experience with these please share your feedback. seems a lot of people who got it early had issues with it.

if I ever end up getting these I hope to dodge the connection issues by just using bluetooth (throw the USB dongle back in the box).

    ok after reading the Rtings details I think I'm glad I didn't get these to use with bluetooth.

    "AAC Support. No"
    "Latency - SBC 325 ms "

    doesn't support low latency AAC for iPad use. you have to deal with 300ms+ of latency. no thanks. it will be ok for music but useless for youtube/movies. completely cutting the value. not worth.

    for anyone else with issues please comment them. will be useful to anyone considering them and the issue above is for my personal use case.

      The core issue with these is that the default tuning is quite bright, and they're annoying to EQ unless you have a PS5 to access their custom EQ profiles and save one.

      Outside of that, they're a stripped down Audeze closed-back planar, which goes pretty well for the price, and you get a charging stand and wireless dongle in the box.

        ok well I read there is no phone app, but I thought advertised for PC with USB dongle use so assumed there is software there? if not in the beginning I thought there would be at least by now??

        you get a charging stand and wireless dongle in the box.

        thanks didn't know about the charging stand. planned to use them with bluetooth to iPad, and the USB dongle with PC just for updating/software. I don't have a PS5.

        • jasswolf on 10/06/2025 - 21:16

          AFAIK you won't be able to update them at all without a PS5.

          • n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm on 10/06/2025 - 21:18

            @jasswolf: ok bummer. so no EQ either.

            at this point just gonna wait for clearance price if it happens.

            • jasswolf on 10/06/2025 - 21:19

              @n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm: No saved EQ profiles, you can still EQ them on a PC, phone, or tablet by other means.

              • n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm on 10/06/2025 - 21:25

                @jasswolf: my most used device is iPad, which afaik there is only EQ that will apply to music players. I think I will just wait and see.

      They also tend to break easily if you have a larger head, as the band is made from a thin 4-5 mm piece of matte plastic that flexes when you put them on.

      I had a pair that only lasted six months of light usage (<1 hour a day).

      • n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm on 11/06/2025 - 15:37

        I saw a few comments about that. I just assumed gamers are just rough with their gear because you see so much about headphones/hinges breaking.

        my head is on the smaller side, but breaking with light usage doesn't sound good. 🙇‍♀️

    Still waiting for the white one to come back down to $179 actually..
    Oh and I enjoyed dankpods review so much lmao. Especially the mic test, so cooked..

    • n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm on 10/06/2025 - 21:13

      many early reviews mention issues. hopefully most are fixed but that bluetooth latency killed it for me.

      I'm gonna hodl for $70 Delivered. 😩 hoping amazon or binglee (ok binglee doesn't seem to stock them) will just decide to clear them out.

    Don’t these have a disconnecting issue?

    All I was reading about when they came out and for ages after is that they would disconnect heaps

    • n3ck3ntry8bort0rgasm on 11/06/2025 - 15:39

      yeah I read it all awhile ago too, there is all kinds of feedback on disconnect though.

      all were about disconnects with PS5 using USB dongle.

      first disconnects and static noises.
      then disconnects but plugging USB dongle in the front fixes it.
      then disconnects and plugging it in the front didn't fix it (for some people).

      you would think any major issues will be fixed by now. but would still like to hear experiences from people who bought it recently.

      I plan to use with bluetooth. except they choose to use the highest latency codec available only (SBC). 🙇‍♀️

      • Twisty on 11/06/2025 - 15:50

        I’ve always been keen on them for my PS5 PRO but the disconnects put me off

        Anyone able to confirm this still a issue
