EPOS H6PRO Open Acoustic Gaming Headset Review

I’m fast becoming a big fan of EPOS and their audio products and they’re back with the EPOS H6PRO. This time it’s a premium no-frills plug and play gaming headset. Can the lack of features justify the price tag? Read on to find out how it performs. Feel free to check out my previous review of the multi-connection EPOS H3 Hybrid Gaming Headset here. No Frills All Thrills Audio Design and Control When first opening the packaging on the EPOS H6PRO you're greeted with a very simple but lovely presentation. The headset is encased in a super soft black foam and everything about it looks and feels premium. It's only when taking the headset out and holding it you can feel the difference between the H6PRO and the H3 Hybrid. The EPOS H6PRO oozes class and just feels super premium. I thoug...

Kolink Citadel Glass SE Case Review

Recently I had the pleasure of transplanting a PC into the new Kolink Citadel Glass SE. With its premium looks thanks to a glass front and side panel as well as rocking 3 included ARGB fans, will the case be functional as well as good-looking? Journey To The Citadel Glass Tower Ok, let's get started and see how it goes! If you enjoy my review please remember to leave a like and a comment below. If you don't then my name is Simon. ;) Design It may be suitable for Micro ATX motherboards however you are certainly not short of space.

LucidSound LS15X Headset Review

Welcome to my review of the LucidSound LS15X headset for the Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. LucidSound are one of those brands you've heard of but not seen much about, but you may have heard more about a family member of theirs, PowerA. Believe What You're Hearing With The LS15X! Will the LucidSound LS15X be a pleasure to my ears, or will they sound as flat as a pancake being thrown around a soundproofed room? Continue reading to find out. Check out my previous hardware review here where I reviewed the Nintendo Switch OLED Model. Design and Control The design is rather nice, to be honest. They come across as a cheap headset when you initially look at them due to the bright colours, however, they are not cheap. The build quality is pretty darned brilliant. I was kindly sent the shoc...

JBL JR 460NC Headset Review

When it comes to gaming headsets they always seem to be pretty much one size, but what about the little people? Well worry no more, I have had the pleasure of testing the JBL JR 460NC wireless over-ear noise-cancelling headphones recently.

Gamesir T4 Mini Controller Review

Welcome to my review of the Gamesir T4 Mini controller. This controller is available now and is compatible with PC, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS (MFi and Apple Arcade games). It is a fully rechargeable controller that fits nicely in hands of all sizes. Multi-Platform Fun With The T4 Mini! Will the Gamesir T4 Mini controller be too small to keep up with the competition? Or will it outshine them in the final moments? Keep reading to find out. Check out my previous hardware review here where I reviewed the Edifier NeoBuds Pro earbuds. Design As you can tell, the design is pretty run-of-the-mill. It comes across as a baby version of the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, which is not a bad thing at all.

JBL Quantum 800 Headset Review

JBL kindly sent me down a pair of their Quantum 800 gaming headsets recently. After the niggle I had with the cable on the Quantum One, I was looking forward to this wireless headset very much. JBL Quantum 800 - Wireless Freedom! Priced at £179.99 I had very high expectations for the sound delivery. Would wireless still be as clear as the wired pair? If you enjoy this review please check out my others here! Design and Control Straight from the box, you are met with a plush headband with two very deep memory foam ear cups. The famous JBL orange and black braided cables are present. However, they are short and serve to connect the cups to the headband. The right ear cup houses a simple power-on switch along with the all-important Bluetooth pairing button. The left ear cup cont...

Edifier NeoBuds Pro Review

Welcome to my review of the Edifier NeoBuds Pro wireless earbuds. Edifier is labeling the Edifier NeoBuds Pro as "The World's First Hi-Res Certified Noise-Cancelling True Wireless Earbuds". In my review below I find out how good they really sound. The NeoBuds Pro earbuds do offer a very nice package for a price that isn't too demanding of one's wallet, but will this product fail in areas due to Edifier trying to keep the price under £100? Can The Edifier NeoBuds Pro Be "The One"? If you enjoy this review, please check out my previous hardware review here, where I reviewed the Sades Spirits headset. As always, if you want to keep up with us on social media, then please do so with the links at the bottom of this review. Design and Control The entire design process of the Edifier NeoBuds ...
