“literally overnight by themselves, they were fine when I went to bed and in the morning they were falling apart. I don’t think they changed anything.”
“If you only game on Consoles, Play for over 3hrs in a single sitting, and/or want a set for TV use, then grab the 1st gen H9s. They're better for those needs and over $100 cheaper”
“the H9 is comfortable and the audio quality and noise canceling is good beating out all other headsets I tried out. The price is nuts and the easily ripped leather are the main downsides”
“it's durable is worse than my Hyper X Cloud Flight, which the leather lasted for 2 years and no technical issue yet.”
“I upgraded from Pulse 3D to the Sony Inzone H9 and I absolutely love my Inzone H9.”
“The sound and comfort of the headset itself is really good and feels like a cheaper version of their flagship audio headsets.”
“Just adding to this conversation having owned this for 3 months and using it daily for WFH. It's a goldlilocks headset really”
“absolutely love it, XM5 for work/outside and H9 for long run gaming purpose.”

“Currently waiting on my 3rd pair from Sony the first 2 sets both didn’t last 4 -5 months.”
“I have had them since the release day, they are AMAZING!”
“I love my first gen H9’s, but it baffles me that volume control from the Edge controller doesn’t work with them.”
“schlechte Qualität sag ich mal, für Kopfhörer fûr über 300€ hätte ich mehr erwartet!”
“They are really good on Ambiental/Transparency mode.”
“It's a great headset but they'll be going back if I can't get this fixed.”
“But man do they sound good they're like the wh1000xm series but gaming”
“I always get a bit of pain at the top of my head after an hour or so with the H9”
“By far h9s are the best sounding headset for gaming.”
“this is some trash design, they could have used a more durable and stronger glue”

“All of the buttons function seamlessly with the PS5”
Practical notes owners raise — setup, quirks, and issues to watch for. They don't say whether the person likes the product, so they're not counted in the score, but they inform the pros, cons, and who it's for.
“Do you have the eq you’re currently using? Would be keen to eq them as well since they sound quite dull for music, imo. I’m assuming you’re using something like Peace APO for equaliser?”
“Can I download the app on mobile, save an EQ preset to the headset from the mobile app and then use that preset on the PC without downloading the pc app? If I dont download the PC app do I lose any features like the chat/game balance?”
“I have the same you describe. I did some more troubleshooting and the usb-c dongle needs a direct line of sight of the headset. There cannot be anything between it. This solved most issues, but i still have every 2-3 hours one disconnect”
“Can anyone comment if these share the same weird overheating/random disconnects the Pulse Elite suffered from?”
“I have the headphones and yea, no app. But no worries since I can easily EQ them on the fly on Sound Connect App on my iPhone, it has the same features as the Inzone Hub You connect the dongle to PS5 / Mac etc and have an active bluetooth connection on your phone.”
“first one had bigger drivers I think they were 40mm now they are smaller on 2nd gen only 30mm”
“Sidetone is adjustable via the Inzone Hub software (only PC, no Mac support)”
