The new Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X are analytical closed headphones. Their modern over-ear design is well-made and comfortable to wear. In addition to a restrained bass range, open trebles and cool, differentiated mids characterise the sound of this model. Guitar music, in particular, benefits from this. Thanks to their good damping values, these studio headphones are ideal for use when recording but also for mixing and editing on the move.
The Onanoff BuddyPhones Cosmos+ are kids' headphones that offer adjustable volume limiting via Bluetooth. They scored plus points for their long-lasting battery and stable Bluetooth range. They also earned a good score for their support of a high-quality audio codec and their impressive sound quality with good speech intelligibility. So are these robust, foldable over-ears the best wireless headphones for children, as the manufacturer claims?
Sometimes you just want to treat yourself to something beautiful – a feast for the eyes! For some, it may not matter if there is something better or more sensible in the same price range. And if you are a gamer who plays a lot and use a headset, you might want to buy something that stands out from the crowd. This is exactly where this new gaming headset from Roccat comes in, as it offers much more in terms of "looks" than many of its competitors. If the design is right, nothing can go wrong, but will Roccat be successful with the Syn Pro Air?
With the SXFI Gamer, Creative want to create the perfect accessory for gamers. Will they succeed?
Creative's SXFI Trio combine the hybrid triple-driver system of the Aurvana Trio with the audio holographic options of the Super X-Fi Headphone AMP in the form of compact in-ear USB-C headphones designed to be versatile all-rounders for working, studying and playing.
As the smaller version of the Razer Opus, the Razer Opus X aims to offer roughly comparable quality for a significantly lower budget. But how do they manage to achieve this?
Razer's Hammerhead True Wireless X support Bluetooth version 5.2 and offer a latency-reduced wireless connection for mobile games as well as movies in Gaming Mode, while flexible touch control and sound customisation can be made via an app. The optional illumination of the wireless earbuds in the form of the three-headed snake logo can also be individually configured.
With the Barracuda X, Razer brings a one-fits-all solution to the table: thanks to mini-USB-C wireless transmitters, the Barracuda X is supposed to excel with PCs, Playstations, Switches as well as Android devices. We tried it out.
The Republic of Gamers, or ROG for short from Asus, don't want to make a fuss with the Theta 7.1, they want to make a big statement – the appearance of this powerful headset makes this impressively clear from the very first moment. Four drivers on each side of the earpiece, an integrated 7.1 DAC, a Hi-Res Audio certification and an AI-controlled microphone aim to conjure up a sound experience never before experienced in our ears. But have we finally found the Holy Grail of gaming headsets?
For some time now, the A20 gaming headset from Logitech's subsidiary Astro Gaming has been available in its second generation, which is offered in two variants. Based on colour coding, the area of use can be visually assigned: Xbox gamers (Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox One S, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S) go for the version with green colour accents, Playstation gamers (PS4 and PS5) opt for the blue version. Both have compatibility with Macs and PCs in common. Fans who use game consoles from Sony and Microsoft still do not have to buy both versions - it is "enough" to buy the USB wireless transmitter (approx. 20 euros) to achieve full platform compatibility.
