In the world of gaming, the symphony of keyboards and mouse clicks aren’t mere background noises.

As an avid gamer and esports fanatic, you understand that these are the sounds of victory that propelled your favorite teams to gaming stardom. As you follow in their footsteps and scour the market for the best gaming equipment it has to offer, you will find the perfect pair of headsets that offers you the pro-gamer experience — the Logitech Pro X 2 Lightspeed Gaming Headset.

The Logitech Pro X 2 Lightspeed Gaming Headset is available at all Logitech G Official Stores in Shopee PH, Lazada PH, Amazon US, and partner retail stores

Logitech, an international leading innovator of PC and gaming peripherals, has collaboratively designed the Logitech Pro X 2 Lightspeed alongside the best esports players in the world to deliver supreme audio immersion unlike any other, balancing sleek designs, unparalleled utility, and everyday comfort into one.

Engineered for top-notch sound quality

The Pro X 2 Lightspeed Gaming Headset comes with 50mm graphene drivers, a rare and lightweight material that ensures sound clarity and enhanced audio response. Graphene also reduces the risk of sound distortions, allowing you to listen to your favorite game’s OSTs and sound designs in greater detail, making you feel like you’re inside the game itself.

Spatial awareness and accuracy are crucial for most FPS games and with the DTS Headphone:X 3D audio support feature, you can pinpoint anyone’s location with ease. This cutting-edge technology creates an audio environment that emulates where and how far sound cues are in-game, allowing you to make quick decisions and react to environmental threats in a snap.

Elevate your shot-calling skills and deliver studio-quality voice communication to your teammates with Blue VO!CE technology. The detachable 6mm cardioid microphone removes any pops and hisses during active comms. With its robust design, coupled with an effective noise-canceling feature, you can ensure that your instructions are communicated clearly and crisply to your comrades on the battlefield.

Another core feature is the LIGHTSPEED wireless technology that takes the audio experience to new heights with its lag-free connection, making sure in-game sounds are delivered to you in real time.

Additionally, the wireless setup is a huge plus for gamers who enjoy the freedom of moving around, eliminating the hassle of tangled wires and maintaining uncompromised audio quality within a 30-meter connection radius. This is also complemented by a 50-hour battery lifespan to maximize long gaming sessions.

If you do enjoy the traditional feel wired headsets offer, then you’re in luck. You can seamlessly switch between using Bluetooth and a reliable 3.5mm wired connection depending on which setup or preference you’re most comfortable with. Effortlessly transitioning between hardcore gaming sessions and casual sound trips with friends proves the PRO X 2’s versatility whether you’re online or offline.

Designed for comfort

The Pro X 2 Lightspeed Gaming Headset goes beyond exceptional audio specifications.

It’s sleek, ergonomic and sustainably-made design takes into account extended gaming sessions, ensuring a comfortable fit as you play. The adjustable metal headband is wrapped in thick cushions with a rotating durable hinge, allowing you to play securely from multiple angles.

The ear pads are made from plush memory foam — available in leatherette or breathable velour — and accompanied by additional velour pads, ideal for gamers who wear glasses. This snugly conforms around the user’s ears to block out external noise and distractions. The lightweight construction also adds to the overall comfort, preventing additional strain on the head and neck.

Immersive sound design can make all the difference in any great game. Whether it’s a highly-competitive FPS game that requires your undivided attention to every minute sound cue or a laid-back, open-world adventure filled with breathtaking scenes, captivating storylines and riveting symphonies, a good and quality headset can definitely elevate the experience.

Dare to take your pro-gaming dreams to the next level and play like your idols with the Logitech Pro X 2 Lightspeed in your arsenal.

Smart Home Starter Series: Connected lights

02/17/2020

We now live in a world where phones are no longer the only things that are ‘smart’ and offer efficiency and convenience for our daily lives. From smartphones, there came smart devices like watches and other wearables, smart vehicles that no longer require its own driver, and smart homes as well.

For your house to be called a smart home, it should have an automation system that lets you control lighting, climate, appliances, and other home devices. In addition to our Smart Home Starter Series: Smart speakers feature, we’re now going to take a look at connected lights — specifically the Philips Hue lineup.

What is Philips Hue?

So what is Hue and what makes it something you’d want to consider for your connected light setup? Philips describes it as your personal wireless lighting system with an emphasis on being personal. This is because most of their lighting products can change its color — hence, its name — from different temperatures of white (warm or cold) and a full array of color right at your fingertips.

Although there are newer models that connect via Bluetooth, what we’re specifically using are lights that are linked to our router through the Hue Bridge and are controlled by an app. Through this, you can set the color of a specific light, change its shade, and even control how bright you want it to be.

The Philips Hue has an array of lighting types from standalone bulbs, light strips, indoor fixtures, and even outdoor lamps. They also have accessories that further make a convenient setup like Wi-Fi-enabled wall switches and motion sensors that automatically activate lights when you enter a room, for example.

Additionally, Philips Hue bulbs can go up to 800 lumens at its brightest setting which is enough to easily illuminate a standard-sized room measuring around 20 square meters.

Applications of Philips Hue

More than just being able to change the colors of your lights through your phone, Philips Hue can also be accessed through voice commands since it’s compatible with Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, and Google Assistant. Just add Hue to the list on your smart speaker or smartphone and you’ll be able to say something like, “Hey Google, change the kitchen lights to bright white” or “Hey Google, set bedroom color to deep red” and it will do so right away.

This alone already cuts time when you need to change the light color or crank up the brightness and your hands are busy. Additionally, you can schedule your lights when it will turn on/off and set daily routines so you don’t accidentally leave any lights turned on and save up on electricity bills.

The Hue can also be set in a way that it detects when you’re almost home and turns on pre-set lights so you no longer have to fumble in the dark as you get out of your shoes or something.

And if you want to squeeze more out of Hue, there are a number of third-party apps that are compatible and safe to use. These allow more features like syncing your lights to music, mirroring the colors of what’s on your TV to your lights, and more.

Connected lights for your smart home?

The mere fact that you’re reading this article and you reach this part means you’re really contemplating on starting your smart home or are really interested with color-changing lights. If you find yourself agreeing to any one of those and you have funds ready. By all means, go for it and get some.

My wife and I have been using Philips Hue for almost three years now and we can say it’s been reliable so far with no hiccups. The ability to change lights from bright whites for working to more subdued, funky vibes when you have friends over is in itself a great novelty to have in your home.

It looks cool, gives accent to any part of the room, and is convenient to use. It’s even a conversation starter and impresses friends when they see it change colors so that’s another plus. Additionally, the Hue tends to satisfy the geek in each one of us through what it offers.

So if you’re really keen on setting up a smart home, then having connected lights are a must. And when it comes to Wi-Fi-enabled lights, Philips Hue is one of the top names you should consider.

Of course, there are also alternatives…
