Tech Review – Edifier G2 II USB gaming headphones. #Edifier #Gaming #Tech

Edifier recently launched the G2 II gaming headset and we have been testing it out and as expected with any product from Edifier no matter the price point they deliver on the audio aspect even at entry level prices which is the same for their TWS earbuds, One of their cheapest earbuds for example the X3 TWS that come in at approx. 35 euros deliver on sound and quality at this price point and excels others. With their gaming headphone range this is no different and this is an affordable headset that delivers.

There is a simple inline control panel that allows you to turn on/off the mic and switch on/off the RGB effects and a volume wheel on the side it could not be easier to use although there is no EQ built in for tone adjustment which is fine the sound that comes from the headset is well balanced and will immerse you into the gameplay and blocks all external noise. Comfort would be another factor here to weigh in on as most gamers spend hours on their gameplay and these are fine here too with the soft cups and headband , The mic is good too with clear sound both ends and overall it will be an enjoyable experience for whoever picks these up.

Main Features:

  • 7.1 surround sound offering 360° sound positioning, accelerating your advantage.
  • 50mm driver unit produces clear sound and excellent low-frequency performance.
  • Noise-cancelling detachable microphone for uninterrupted game play.
  • Dynamic RGB light effects.
  • Comfortable wearing for longevity.

We check out the Sony Playstation Classic. #MyPSMemories #Gaming #Sony #Tech

Last night in Dublin we had the chance to check out the Sony Playstation Classic and it certainly was a trip down memory lane and for those who once owned the Original console as I did this will be an ideal gift to yourself or indeed for somebody else in the family. The mini sized console will be hitting the stores on December 3rd and once its sold out it is sold out we were told on the night.

 

The console as I said is small with a simple set up and HDMI connectivity and just like other launches of late which are really popular and sell out on the day and brings back the memories of old when I was a huge gaming fan. Several games were tried and it was an enjoyable experience given things have shrunk it was not long before I got the hang of things again. This will be a welcome addition in my house and I am sure many other households and for €99 it is a good deal with 20 games pre-loaded. I feel this is however a similar attempt at what others have done like Nintendo which is nothing wrong but Sony could have given us more games.
