  "account": "PlayStation has revealed two new wireless headsets under the Pulse and Pulse Edge branding. This naming scheme deviates from the previous Pulse Elite model. The Pulse headset is a base model, while the Pulse Edge is a Pro model, with differences in design, features, and pricing.\n\nBoth headsets offer dual connectivity, supporting both Bluetooth and the PlayStation Link 2.4 GHz connection. They are available in two color options: White and Midnight Black. The main distinction between the two lies in their design and audio capabilities.\n\nThe Pulse headset features four magnets per planar driver, an integrated microphone with AI Noise Rejection, and a general volume control. In contrast, the Pulse Edge boasts eight magnets per planar driver, a detachable boom microphone, a separate volume control for both overall audio and chat balance, and includes a carrying case.\n\nThe Pulse Edge is expected to be more expensive than the base model Pulse headset.

Further details, including those specific to Southeast Asia, will be shared in a separate blog post.",
