2017-01-06
hey guys Eber here with hurricane axe at CES 2017 we're in this video we're covering hyper exes new products that include an updated revolver headset and some new gaming peripherals so let's get started big thanks to Nvidia gigabyte fan techs and NCIX for our CES coverage you guys may remember that a while ago we looked at the HyperX alloy keyboard link in the description and they're now in the process of updating the entire alloy lineup the first add-on is an RGB edition that has a completely new design with a milled thin alloy frame and RGB LEDs that can be configured to almost 16 million different colors unlike some of hyper X's other keyboards expect this one to come with a full software suite for changing the backlight colors and implementing custom macros also unlike the smaller allo keyboards this one will have a full suite of features including a palm rest dedicated media controls and several gaming presets there are three buttons along the top which control the backlight allow you to switch between profiles and enable the keyboards game mode game mode actually turns off the Windows key so you won't accidentally press it while gaming pricing for this keyboard will be about $150 for the fully equipped version that you see in this video while a more basic version with simple red back late and no dedicated software will retail for about 110 dollars the exact launch date hasn't been determined yet but expect the alloy RGB in q3 the standard HyperX a low FPS keyboard that we took a while back ago is coming with a makeover with Cherry MX brown or red switch options which is pretty awesome another new addition to the HyperX family is the pulse fire mouse which is priced at just 50 dollars and it was designed for gamers who want a basic no-nonsense Mouse without a ton of unnecessary features it gives us a pixar 3310 sensor with four preset dpi levels 400 800 1600 and 3200 and it's designed with numerous gripping styles in mind those dpi levels have a small visual indicator right behind the scroll wheel which glows white for 400 dpi rent for 800 dpi blue for 1600 dpi and yellow for 3200 dpi the pulse afire reminded me a lot of the Razer DeathAdder has a plastic body while defined scroll steps and strategically placed grip surfaces promoted a light but very controlled Mouse that should be great for FPS gamers its price of $50 makes it super appealing to the last product HyperX was showing was their new cloud revolver s according to them this is the most advanced HyperX headset to date since it offers plug-and-play dolby 7.1 surround sound through the integration of Dolby's headphone technology this is all packed into a new USB download that is supposed to deliver three-dimensional positional audio with a push of a button we tried it and the Adobe send plain one sounded very good in games with well-defined directional effects but the 7.1 didn't translate all that well into music luckily HyperX is included and all inline control which can turn off the surround sound remember that this is a hardware based Dolby DPS solution that doesn't use a software layer so for the time being an equalizer isn't being included quite yet I should also mention that the revolver S is compatible with both PC and ps4 but not the Xbox one since a Microsoft platform doesn't have Dolby headphone support past the obvious addition of a virtual surround sound stage hyper axis also listen to critique of their past revolver design and is improved in a number of areas we complained about the reverberations from the original metallic headband support but now there is a rubberized insert so that minimizes those issues a noise cancelation has also been improved with the included advanced DSP HyperX is hoping to have the revolver S available on March 13th for a price of $150 so that concludes yet another video from CES 2017 stay tuned for more content
