Sades Spirits Review

Sades Spirits Is A Budget Friendly Headset I remember having a USB wired Sades headset some years ago now and was pleasantly surprised by the quality and sound for a sub £30 headset. 10 years on, can Sades continue that nice sound whilst being easy on the wallet? Continue reading to find out. If you enjoy this review, please feel free to read my previous review here where I played Inked: A Tale of Love on the PlayStation 5.

Creative Aurvana Trio Wireless Review

With wireless earbuds flooding the market right now, it’s actually really refreshing to see something a little bit different from Creative Labs, in the form of the Creative Aurvana Trio Wireless. They are wireless earphones, but with a neckband and physical buttons. But can it compete with the myriad of True Wireless Stereo offerings at such a competitive price point? Read on to find out. Triple drive your audio to new heights Design and Control With all the electronics, battery, and controls housed in the neckband, this allows the actual earphones to only weigh in at 40g. Being this weight means they’re a lot less likely to come out whilst listening and moving around. The neckband itself really is so well made and looks super stylish. The part that rests on your neck is made from ...

JBL Quantum One Headset Review

The awesome people over at JBL kindly sent down a pair of their recently launched Quantum One gaming headphones for me to have a play with. Before I have even got the product out of the box it already looks a very colourful ordeal with vibrant oranges painted across the packaging. JBL Quantum One - Dare To Listen With JBL being very well known for its speakers, I was interested to see how they would sound in a gaming headset. As, where precise sound is key if you want to survive in first-person shooters. First impressions Straight from the box there is a fair bit of substance to the Quantum One headset with a weight of 369g, bearing in mind that this is a wired headset. In comparison to some of the other headsets that I have had the pleasure to review, the wired Roccat Khan Aimo head...

QPAD QH-700 Pro Gaming Stereo Headset

You may have heard of QPAD. A Swedish company that was founded in 1992, but if you haven't I wouldn't blame you. It was only when they relaunched last year, in 2019, that they really came to my attention. As the self-proclaimed legends of eSports hardware, does the new QH-700 stereo headset deliver? Design Straight out of the box I could see this was a good quality piece of kit. Featuring a soft-to-the-touch matt black design throughout, with a gloss finish on their logo it looks very sleek. In fact I've been using this headset quite a lot when streaming and it's likely that people didn't really notice because of that stealth aesthetic. It's very slimline, compared to the chunkiness of my Razer Kraken and well padded for comfort. It features a removable mic; ultimately connect...
