Razer Hunstman V3 Tenkeyless 8KHz Review

Razer seem to be releasing product after product these days, and with another Huntsman hitting the virtual shelves, we wanted to bring you our thoughts. The Razer Huntsman V3 Tenkeyless 8KHz, retailing at around £169.99 depending on where you look, is a wireless analogue optical keyboard with some neat features that, as always, we are going to detail for you in our succinct style.

TX3 Core 360 Gaming Chair Review

Firstly, that image above is not the TC HQ; we wish we operated from a lavish room like that. One of cleanliness and comfort, not one of chaos and creativity. Now, don't get me wrong, we have the grey chair and have been parking our butts on it for a few weeks now. So, it's time for us to bring you our verdict on the TX3 Core 360 chair. Hold on to your armrests; this is a good one. Comfort above Charm Don't get fooled by the above quip; the TX3 Core 360 is a gorgeous-looking chair, or at least I think so. It is, however, a bit bulky, but with that bulk you get a lot, and I mean a lot of life-improving features. Let's dive into the finer details. Design Features Being available in a whole host of materials and colours, we were provided with the Loft variant in the light grey colourway. ...

Razer Kiyo V2 Review

If you are either a content creator, or you just like to have the best webcam in your company meetings. Then you might want to pick up the Razer Kiyo V2. Coming in either white, black, or even the gorgeous quartz colourway. Costing an RRP of £149.99, although at the time of writing it was on sale for £109.99 on the Razer website. This webcam makes some pretty big claims, and a couple of them may not align with ours. No Pink Tax Here As with more Razer products, you know you are going to get a lot of bells and whistles. This is what generally makes them slightly more expensive than other competing products within a specific market. Let's take a bit of time and have a look at some of those features. Design Features The most standout feature that the Kiyo V2 has is the 4K image at 30FPS, ...

Shuffle Wallet 2.0 Review

Time for something different here at TC, yes, it's a wallet. Not just any wallet, though: the Shuffle Wallet 2.0. Featuring upgrades from the original version, this wallet aims to look after your money, whether you misplace the wallet or from miscreants out there. So what is the Shuffle Wallet 2.0? Shall we dive in and take a look? Design Features The first thing that you will notice about the wallet is the weight. You might not think that 150g is a lot, but when you feel the sturdy construction, you know that this is a great product. Only 14.5mm thin it allows you to keep it close, although I do prefer to have my usual wallet in my pocket so that I can feel it. I found myself doing the pocket checks a number of times while I was using the Shuffle Wallet. One of the biggest featur...

iFi iDSD GR 2 Portable DAC review

I’ll start this review with a little confession. Unlike some of the others, I’m not an audiophile. I enjoy music. A lot. I’ve spent years playing in bands, playing bass, standing in front of loud speakers, listening to music through headphones and generally having some form of music following me around wherever I go. So while I’m probably not the person who is going to tell you that a particular electronic component has transformed my favourite song, I do know when something sounds bloody good. That brings us to the iFi iDSD GR 2. Currently retailing for £529. The GR 2 is a portable DAC and headphone amplifier designed to sit somewhere between your phone, computer or other audio source and your headphones. It is effectively the middleman responsible for taking that digital audio s...

After looking at the specs, we decided to check out the ZS-GX4S, a security camera that comes with a small solar panel. Retailing at around £60 its a cheap and relatively feature-packed model. So let's see why this might just be the upgrade that you didn't think you'd need. Protect and Serve Security has never been high on my list of upgrades, but with the amount of stori...

Corsair Releases Skiff 100 and 100 Plus

Corsair recently released a couple of keyboards into the budget lineup. The Skiff 100 and the Skiff 100 Plus. Now you'd be right if you made the assumption straight away that they are pretty much the same keyboard. In fairness, you'd be right. Boats and Boats...Skiff! Retailing at £49.99 and £59.99 for the PLUS version, the Skiff 100 range is aiming to give those starting out with PC Gaming a great foundation of hardware to start with. So just what does the Skiff 100 range have up its sleeve? Let's dive in and find out Design Features As can be expected, the keyboard itself is made of a strong and rigid plastic. Its ok, though; being IP53 rated, it can survive accidental splashes, albeit not being entirely waterproof. Surviving gaming sessions is a great appeal of this keyboard. The me...
