out Dave Taylor here and I'm checking
0:13
out these These are the EXA E5 BT 2.4
0:17
GHz wireless gaming headset and it's a
0:21
pretty nice piece of Hardware as you can
0:23
see it does have some gaming designed
0:26
elements to it which is nice but mostly
0:29
what's important is it has really nice
0:31
music reproduction it has very low
0:34
latency it has a boom mic that you can
0:36
tilt out of the way if you don't need it
0:38
and it has a lot of connectivity options
0:41
so first off I'll tell you that it's
0:43
powered by 50 mm drivers that are
0:45
generating some really nice sound these
0:48
are very listenable they have very nice
0:50
music reproduction but the microphone is
0:53
also noise cancelling so if you're in a
0:56
relatively noisy environment and you're
0:58
trying to have the people on the other
1:00
end he and understand what you're saying
1:03
this will do the trick and then from
1:05
connectivity perspective this is so cool
1:08
this is the first time I've seen this
1:10
this is a usba dongle that has a secret
1:15
USB SE dongle hidden in it so you can
1:19
use either for connectivity for 2.4 GHz
1:23
which is a typical frequency for gaming
1:25
headsets which gives lower latency than
1:28
Bluetooth but also Works totally fine
1:31
with Bluetooth
1:32
5.0 and then you want to use it in wired
1:36
mode Let's see it's this one so USBC to
1:38
3.5 mm this is for example how you can
1:41
use it with your Xbox and there's also a
1:45
USB a USBC charging cable so it's got
1:49
everything covered there there's not a
1:52
lot of devices that you can't actually
1:54
work with so for example it is
1:56
compatible with the Xbox the PlayStation
1:59
4 the PlayStation 5 PCS Macs the
2:03
Nintendo switch you can use this with
2:05
your mobile phone you can use this with
2:07
your tablet I am going to guess I didn't
2:09
test it but I would imagine you could
2:11
use this with your Kindle now I'm not
2:14
sure why you'd want a gaming headset for
2:16
your Kindle but if you did this would
2:19
cover the job and as I said on 2.4 GHz
2:23
it's less than 20 milliseconds of
2:25
latency and that works just fine for
2:27
gamers unless you're in the most int
2:30
games um and Battery wise 52 hours it is
2:35
adjustable um and it does you'll want to
2:37
adjust it to get it to be flat against
2:40
the side of your head when I first put
2:42
it on I had it open too much and then it
2:45
was sort of more like that and that
2:47
wasn't as comfortable so you'll take a
2:50
minute or two get it to adjust just
2:52
where you want and then on the left
2:55
earpiece and conveniently it's right
2:58
inside that earpiece you can tell which
3:00
is which on the left earpiece are all
3:02
the buttons and controls and there's the
3:05
different plugs for you to connect it
3:07
wired and then there's a volume control
3:11
and there's a microphone mute so just a
3:14
word to the wise when you tilt it all
3:16
the way up that does not automatically
3:18
mute it you will need to push the mute
3:20
button and then power and then there's a
3:23
slider that lets you alternate between
3:26
Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz I wanted to give
3:29
you a demo because I wanted to let you
3:33
hear how it sounds so I'm going to just
3:36
go into an audio recording app and now
3:39
what you're hearing is my voice is
3:41
picked up by the microphone of the EXA
3:45
e55bt and as you can hear it's really
3:48
nice volume it's a really clean signal
3:51
it sounds really good I was actually
3:53
pretty impressed and so there's lots to
3:56
like here and if I tilt it up it's still
3:59
pick up my voice obviously not quite as
4:01
well because the microphone's further
4:03
away so as I said you really have
4:09
to that had me muted for a second there
4:12
as you could tell the sound went away so
4:14
that mute button is required so let's
4:17
see what else can I tell you about these
4:19
let me stop this
4:22
recording so I will tell you one thing
4:25
worth knowing is that you can't use
4:27
these while they're charging now given
4:29
that there's a 52-hour battery life
4:31
that's not a huge crisis but before your
4:34
next Super intense gaming session just
4:36
remember to plug it in it's 3 hours from
4:38
0 to 100 so if you have it and you're
4:41
not sure how much charge give it 30 to
4:44
60 minutes and you'll be good for an
4:45
entire evening of gaming and let's see
4:49
the um earpieces this is faux leather so
4:52
if you're someone who prefers not to
4:54
have any animals hurt in the creation of
4:56
your products then this is for you so
5:00
not sure what else I can tell you about
5:02
it I think that they've done a really
5:04
nice job it is a very budget price I
5:07
will say the buttons feel a little bit
5:10
low budget but that is to be expected
5:13
with a product like this it is mostly
5:15
plastic with some metal pieces but at
5:18
the price point this is a fantastic one
5:21
for a new gamer or for someone who gets
5:24
really upset when they're gaming and
5:26
lose and they rip the headset off their
5:28
head and th throw them on the ground
5:31
with something like this you're like
5:32
okay well that's just going to be like a
5:34
weekend of chores and we'll get you new
5:36
one so there you know nice to have
5:39
something with this quality of sound and
5:42
this quality of
5:44
microphone that isn't going to break the
5:46
bank and in terms of the music playback
5:49
I was listening to some musical
5:52
compositions from sting who is more than
5:55
just a lead singer in the police um he's
5:58
done a ton of great great stuff and it
6:01
just was very immersive very Lush and um
6:05
lot of it like low frequency electronics
6:08
and it just sounded beautiful it's a
6:11
really nice immersive sound with a good
6:14
Sound Stage and of course you need that
6:17
because if you're playing a game and
6:19
someone's walking up behind you in the
6:21
game you want to be able to not just
6:22
hear that but be able to identify where
6:25
that is in your spatial sense and these
6:28
do a really nice job with that so lots
6:31
to like here I'm going to just say if
6:34
you're looking for some entry-level
6:35
gaming headset that you really can't go
6:38
wrong with these they will connect to
6:39
anything and that makes them super
6:41
flexible and they have really nice sound
6:44
