A few weeks ago, my wife was coming off one of her shifts at Best Buy Canada and gave me a quick call on the phone. "You think the kids would like a programmable robot?" A few minutes later, I was unboxing the Sphero Mini, charging the device, and linking up various devices in our home to act as controllers for the robot.

Lucid Audio products have always been some of the better products on the market, and like many headset manufacturers in 2021, they realize that gamers are looking for affordability and quality in one package. So many attempt at creating this balance and releasing a solid product into the marketplace, but so few achieve what they actually set out to do (or purposefully don't). Not with Lucid. After taking the LS10X for a spin for over a month, I'm happy to report that for 59.99 USD, you get an excellent, audio product.

Turtle Beach has long been the biggest name in gaming console headsets and accessories. The latest Recon Controller for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and Windows 10 is a shining example of how they earned this reputation. The Recon Controller strikes a superb balance between simple design and quality of life features that we are very excited about. Without further ado let's dive right in and take a closer look at Turtle Beach's Recon Controller!

The latest gaming headset from ROCCAT, Turtle Beach's PC accessory brand, represents a serious step forward into the mid-high end headset market with the ROCCAT Syn Pro Air. It seems that they have used the previous 'Elo' series to springboard into the higher-end market. And let me tell you, the Syn Pro Air makes an impressive splash. Aside from a few minor hiccups along the way, our extensive testing found almost nothing that would make us shy away from recommending the latest ROCCAT wireless headset, the Syn Pro Air.

The concept and importance of STEM - science, technology, engineering, and mathematics - is becoming increasingly more popular year over year, and parents are clamouring to find the latest and greatest STEM products, camps, and more for their kids. So many companies now advertise STEM friendly activities for kids, but in my home, we've found that most of these companies are profiting off the philosophy, as opposed to actually providing engaging, STEM products. Our kids are currently using the SPHERO MINI set, and we've been more impressed with that product ...

Razer recently released the Razer Opus X headphones, which are a more affordable version of last year's release, Opus. The Opus X headphones hit the market at roughly half the cost of the former model, and are extremely similar with only a couple differences. While not solely targeted towards gamers, the Opus X does feature a low-latency 'Gaming Mode' that ensures there is minimal lag for in-game sounds. Anyone who has tried to use a pair of all-purpose headphones for gaming knows just how big of a deal that really is. At half the price of their predecessor, ...

Creative has launched some fantastic pieces of hardware over the last number of years, highlighted by their SXFI lineup of headphones and earbuds - we've reviewed plenty of these devices, and they have always ranked high! Lately, Creative has been pushing quite a few premium products, but this time around we are reviewing a very affordable, outstanding under-monitor sound bar. Let's not even bury the lead - this thing is fantastic!

I'll say it. ROCCAT is on fire. Ever since partnering with Turtle Beach on their line of PC accessories, they have been pumping out quality products with reasonable price points at a seriously impressive pace. And now, with their latest release of the Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air gaming mice, they are showing exactly zero signs of slowing down. These mice feature flawless mechanics and can compete with anything on the market - all while ringing in at around half the price of some of their competitors.

A couple of years ago, Creative launched its Super X-Fi line of audio accessories that took the world by storm. Their superior audio quality and surround sound experience left us absolutely speechless. Last year, they released SXFI Gen2, which was an improved and expanded version that incorporated high accuracy in personalized profiles, more configuration options, better audio positioning and more. All of these features have been packed into the SXFI GAMER headset, which offers the same incredible audio experience paired with a professional-grade microphone ...
