Sorry but I think you are misunderstanding what OP means by working with their consoles. It's not just audio we're talking about here, it's the ability to have audio AND chat working at the same time while in-game. This is NOT a feature that none gaming earbuds will have. The only other earbuds I know of that can do this are the Razer Hammerhead Hyperspeed Xbox and/or PS5 edition. Otherwise, you can of course get a wireless headset... But then you would have to deal with the discomfort of having a heavy headset on your head. These types of earbuds are for a very particular crowd.

They are great with the dongle on PC and via Bluetooth for phones. But I have a really annoying bug / feature (?) on PS5 where the mic is forced on all the time meaning ANC doesn’t work. It says “ANC” when toggling the modes but it is actually just the “off” position with no transparency and no ANC. Even when changing the mic to the controller it won’t enable full ANC. The sound is odd too like the hammerheads are being kept in hand-free mode or something. I reported it to Razer so hopefully it can be addressed in a firmware but doubt it given Razers history 😅
Holy moly this is a sick feature and looks like this is exactly what I'm looking for. THANK YOU for this! I think I found my next set of earbuds. I currently have sony inzone's but I'm having the charging issue one of the ear buds. Recently purchased a set of Razer hammerheads and they're pretty awful IMO so they are getting returned. How has the battery life been on the JBL's?
