Tech Review – HyperX Cloud III wireless headphones

The HyperX Cloud III wireless headphones are a much improved and welcome update to their previous model and look the part whilst keeping it clean and simple.

The build quality is excellent here with a robust finish and fit and look premium they are comfortable to wear for hours on end and do not sweat the ears and this is after testing on gaming and using for general music which you can do with these and they do not sound bad either on that front.

 

The cups are a soft leatherette finish as is the headband one one cup you have a volume wheel and the other is where all the other action happens with a port for the mic a USB-C port for charging and software updates the power key and a mic mute/monitoring button and all buttons tactile. The mic is is excellent this time around but could have been slightly longer however the sound is excellent and you then have the software to get your personal tailored sound, these are not on the bassy side so if you like bass perhaps a miss here but also remember you can customize. Sound is subjective and everyone’s ears different.

When gaming these capture sounds you may miss with other gaming headphones like footsteps and have a great soundstage overall and giving you a more immersive feeling compared to other gaming headsets out there. Vocals are good and so is dialogs with highs and lows well balanced overall.

Overall these are decent and well priced given I do not game that much I have reviewed many gaming headsets and earbuds and these did a good job overall and can be used for general music too and sound good so a bargain to be had if you want to use for both gaming and general music.

Dublin Tech Summit will showcase the women shaking up the tech sector. #DTS2022 #InternationalWomensDay

Dublin Tech Summit will showcase the women shaking up the tech sector, The 2022 event will feature a stellar line-up of female speakers who are changing the world of tech and paving the way for future generations of women in business.

Dublin Tech Summit  (DTS) has today announced the addition of 11 more female speakers for this year’s event. To date, 33 headlining women from across the globe have been confirmed, with many more due to be added in the coming weeks. Returning in a physical capacity this year, DTS will take place at the RDS Dublin on June 15th and 16th, 2022, and the organisers are particularly keen to showcase the outstanding female talent leading the way in the tech sector.

One of stand-out female speakers being announced today is 23-year-old Zaria Parvez, Social Media Manager at Duolingo. Zaria was the brains behind Duolingo’s recent insatiable success on social media platform TikTok, where she grew the account to over two-million followers in record time. Creating viral content on the platform, Zaria landed this impressive cohort of new followers and certainly proved her worth, without the company having to spend a fortune to achieve results. Zaria will be taking to the mainstage at DTS in June, where she will be discussing the benefits of allowing Gen Z team members to follow their innovative instincts to market to their own demographic.

Company founders, CEOs, CTOs, innovators and leaders are among the female speakers already on the list, with some more really exciting names added to coincide with International Women’s Day. At least 20 more are expected to be added in the coming weeks. Today’s full list of new female speakers is as follows:

  • Jumoke Adekunle – Global Brand Marketing Lead, Depop

  • Joan Donovan – Research Director, Harvard Kennedy School’s Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy

  • Zaria Parvez – Social Media Manager, Duolingo

  • Sinéad McSweeney – VP, Global Public Policy and Philanthropy, Twitter

  • Áine Kerr – Co-Founder and COO, Kinzen

  • Guro Bakkeng Bergan – General Manager, EMEA Fivetran

  • Yi Liu – Director of Product Management, Etsy

  • Nikki Lasley – Head of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Amplitude

  • Eileen O’Meara – Head of EMEA Revenue & Growth, Stripe

  • Fiona Brady – Head of Operations and Public Affairs, FREE NOW

Among some of the other female speakers announced, to date, are Cassie Kozyrkov, Chief Scientist and Founder of Decision Intelligence at Google; Michele Romanow, Serial Entrepreneur, President and Co-Founder of Clearco, and Dragon on Canada’s Dragons’ Den; and Elizabeth Bramson-Boudreau, CEO and Publisher, MIT Technology.

Celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women, International Women’s Day aims to bring awareness for women’s equality. As part of this year’s DTS, a stellar line-up of inspirational women will pave the way for future generations of women in business and STEM industries. All across the world, International Women’s Day sparks important conversation and raises awareness of the need for equality, with DTS committed to creating a space where equality is prevalent.

According to a recent Deloitte Global study, global technology firms look set to reach nearly 33% overall female representation in their workforces during 2022. While this is a steady increase from previous years, DTS hopes that by giving women in tech a platform to share their professional stories and experiences, it will help to further accelerate this figure. The team at DTS and its speakers hope to encourage even more women to not just work in tech, but become leaders and founders.

Now in its 5th year, DTS 2022 will take place at the RDS, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, on June 15th and 16th. With over 8,000 registered attendees, 200 speakers, and 65 partners representing 50 countries, the event, which has taken place virtually over the past two years due to COVID, promises to be bigger and better than ever before. It will bring together the brightest tech innovators, influencers and entrepreneurs globally, highlighting the capabilities and creativity which form part of a wider tech ecosystem.

Speaking ahead of Dublin Tech Summit, Zaria Parves, Social Media Manager at Duolingo, said:

”It is an honour to be speaking this year at Dublin Tech Summit and to be given the opportunity to help pave the way for more people of colour, and indeed women in tech. A key part of my early success was simply being trusted and empowered by my employer to experiment and test new, innovative ideas. My hope is that my contribution to the conversations at this event will make more companies give junior talent a seat at the table.”

DTS and Vestel Bring DTS:X Immersive Audio to New Generation of Televisions

DTS  a global leader in next-generation audio, imaging and sensing technology and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Xperi Holding Corporation  today announced Vestel, the leading Turkish electronic company, has gained DTS:X certification for their new range of televisions.

DTS:X for TV is a comprehensive immersive audio solution designed for single and dual-core TV SoC architectures and is fully backward compatible with all existing DTS-encoded content, including DTS:X and DTS-HD® Master Audio Blu-ray Discs and DTS Digital Surround. The solution also features the latest high-efficiency DTS:X immersive streaming decoder for streaming content from OTT services.

We are proud to be one of the first European TV manufacturers certified for DTS:X” said Barış Altınkaya, deputy general manager of marketing and product management, Vestel. “At Vestel, we continuously strive to enhance TV sound quality, and with DTS:X, we can now further push the boundaries of what is possible to deliver a transformational, multi-dimensional surround sound experience, straight from the TVs themselves.”

“Bringing DTS:X to a mainstream television audience through our collaboration with Vestel is a landmark moment for immersive TV audio in Europe,” said Gabriel Cosgrave, general manager, EMEA, Xperi. “Millions more consumers now have the ability to experience fully immersive audio directly from their TV, meaning their home entertainment experience can truly come to life.”

Televisions featuring DTS:X are compatible with any DTS content connected to the TV from HDMI, USB and OTT streaming services. The solution includes a DTS:X transcoder capable of outputting DTS Digital Surround over S/PDIF and ARC (audio return channel) and can output a DTS:X lossless bitstream via eARC (enhanced audio return channel) to connected devices such as DTS:X-enabled A/V receivers or sound bars for a seamless DTS home entertainment experience. The DTS:X solution for TV is a must-have for the IMAX Enhanced program, and it has also been adopted in the Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) spec for Europe. DTS:X for TV is compatible with the DTS® Virtual:X™ audio post-processing solution to deliver the best possible audio experience from immersive content played over a TV’s internal speakers.
