I thought that RGB, which has nothing to do with the function or performance of the PC and only pursues flashiness, would fade away in just a few years. Was it just the writer’s impression? Now, more than 10 years later, contrary to expectations, RGB has become an essential element in PC tuning. Recently, wide view style cases have become popular, and hardware that provides more diverse RGB effects is appearing one after another.
Where does RGB end? Now, beyond the various hardware that makes up a PC, RGB is installed as standard in various input and output devices such as monitors, keyboards, and mice. Rather, it feels like we are in the golden age of RGB.
# Gaming headset that properly utilizes RGB, G-Clicker Superhero Aurora RGB
G-Clicker, which has been building a history for more than 20 years in the peripheral device market, seems to have experienced some ups and downs, perhaps due to its failure to impress consumers with a clear brand identity. However, it is a brand worth paying attention to as it is a brand that has recently launched a number of new products and is starting to penetrate the market again.
Superhero Aurora RGB, a hot new product that has just been released, is a gaming headset that is expected to attract attention from gamers thanks to its unique and flashy style. It offers great features for the price, such as 7.1-channel virtual sound, heavy and solid bass created by a 50mm large-diameter driver, and a noise-cancelling microphone that sounds clearer, but the only element that stands out is the unique style that uses RGB.
When the connection to the PC is successful, a colorful RGB effect begins on the outside of the ear cup. The three colors change smoothly but dynamically, and are so colorful and pretty that first-time users will stare blankly for a while.
It’s not just this. The RGB effect extends to the hairband, maximizing the effect. There is likely to be great satisfaction in a quiet, solo environment, but if you apply a headset like the Superhero Aurora RGB to an environment where multiple users are sitting in a row, such as in a PC room, you may create an interesting scene that could become a meme on the web. It seems there is.
For some headsets, the headband may not fit your head or the area around the headband may appear bulging. The former is inconvenient for users, and the latter is inconvenient for viewers due to the so-called ‘Yoda phenomenon’. Neither option detracts from the usability, but Superhero Aurora RGB effectively solves both shortcomings in an interesting way.
Instead of completely removing the function to adjust the position of the ear cups, the fact that it was designed to provide elasticity to the internal hair band to provide a comfortable fit no matter what user’s body type wears it is something that I want to praise as much as the gorgeous RGB effect.
# Strong bass, sound will be very satisfying
Supporting virtual 7.1 channels without separate software may be somewhat unsatisfactory for consumers who want to tune every detail to their liking. On the other hand, if you are a consumer who focuses on the game itself rather than adjusting the hardware, it may be positive that you can immediately use all the functions by simply connecting the USB without having to worry about this or that.
The ear pads made of soft mesh material provide quite a high level of satisfaction when worn. It may feel slightly different depending on the user, but once you start playing a game, it seems safe to say that there are almost no factors that will cause pain even in an environment that lasts for more than a few hours.
The 50mm driver inside creates a stronger and heavier bass than expected, so I think most consumers will be surprised upon their first listen. However, since heavy bass and virtual 7.1 channels are applied simultaneously, you may feel that the dynamic range and resolution are relatively lacking. This part can be adjusted to a satisfactory level by adjusting it to the user’s preference using the equalizer.
The microphone, which comes with a noise-canceling function as standard, is so responsive and clear that it is difficult to feel howling or time difference at all. It is expected to be sufficiently useful for voice chatting in gaming.
The remote control located in the middle of the cable has buttons and dials for adjusting the volume, muting the microphone, turning the microphone on/off, and turning the RGB effect on/off. The fit of the ear cups is quite good, so you can barely feel the weight of the remote control, but I still wish it were a little smaller.
Conversely, a larger remote control can be positive in that you can easily access and control functions without looking. Once you get used to it, it seems that a slightly larger remote control may be more advantageous in controlling it with just the sense of your fingertips.
The G-Clicker Superhero Aurora RGB gaming headset is a product whose choice will depend on how the user perceives the gorgeous RGB effect rather than its functionality. It seems likely that reviews will vary significantly depending on the user’s preference for RGB.
For consumers who prefer RGB, the mere fact that a gaming headset like this has appeared will definitely be difficult to resist. Fortunately, the Superhero Aurora RGB gaming headset can be purchased at a not very expensive price, so it is also highly accessible.
In PC rooms where you can sit side by side with friends and enjoy games, it is expected that the splendor will be noticeable enough to attract the attention and attention of those around you. Wouldn’t it be quite interesting if multiple users sitting side by side were using this headset at the same time?
Attractive price in the 50,000 won range, extravagant RGB effects, unexpectedly powerful bass produced by 50mm drivers, etc. It feels like a headset has appeared that can be considered the pinnacle of the current PC and gaming gear trend.
