The Nacon Revo X Max brings adjustable stick tension, rear buttons, and trigger stops to a more affordable Xbox and PC controller. In 2026, controller prices can get pretty wild, so I’m keen to see useful extras reaching more reasonably priced models. After using it for three weeks, here is my review. Keeping it simple Nacon’s Revo X range has three models: the Revo X, Revo X Pro, and Revo X Max. The Max combines adjustable joystick tension with instant triggers, two rear shortcut bu

The Fosi Audio Carbon12 IEMs combine angular TC4 titanium-alloy housings with forged carbon-fiber faceplates. Inside each earpiece is a single 12mm dynamic driver with a carbon diaphragm. Having enjoyed Fosi’s desktop DACs and amps, I was keen to hear what its latest earphones could do. Here is my review. Looks and feel Getting the right ear tips made the biggest difference to my experience with the Carbon12s. Once I had a secure fit, I could leave them in through longer listening sess

The GameSir G8 Plus Fortnite Edition gives a controller I already liked a much brighter look. For fans of one of the most impactful games of all time, GameSir is giving you multiple options to represent that fandom. Here is my review. Looking good I received the Peely edition of a trio of new G8 Plus Fortnite designs. The Peely version combines yellow and blue with character artwork and Fortnite branding. The colors really pop, and the finish looks just as good in person as it does o

The Fosi Audio C3 puts headphone amplification, microphone controls, and AI footstep enhancement into a compact desktop unit. If you’re big into both music listening and gaming, this could potentially be the competitively priced combo offering you need. Here is my review. Within reach I connected the C3 to my PC over USB and used my Sennheiser HD 560S through the front 3.5mm output. With the effects off, music sounded clean and detailed, and there was easily enough volume for my norm

The UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Ultra combines six drive bays with an Intel Core 5 120U processor and plenty of connections. Having amassed decades’ worth of photos, videos, games, and other important files, keeping everything accessible without another cloud subscription is very appealing. After spending a month with the DXP6800 Ultra, here is my review. Filling the bay UGREEN supplied six WD Red Plus 2 TB drives, which I installed in RAID 5. That provides 10 TB before formatting and

The Lumistar Tero aims to make solo tennis practice easier, combining adjustable drills with a voice-controlled wristband. After enjoying the PongBot Pace S Pro, I was keen to see another approach to practicing without a partner. I’ve been using the Melted Aura version for some much-needed forehand work. Here is my review. Onto the court As I’m still very much a keen enthusiast, I kept my sessions with the Lumistar Tero fairly simple, concentrating on forehands and backhands. Being a

The Huion Kamvas Pad 12 combines a drawing tablet feature set with the Android operating system, letting you sketch, take notes, watch videos, play games, and use other Android apps. The improved pen and excellent textured screen are the main attractions here. Here is my review. A better pen After voicing my disappointment about the pens included with Huion’s Kamvas Slate 11 and 13, I’m thrilled to say that the Kamvas Pad 12 makes a much better impression. With plenty of enthusias

The Fosi Audio K7 promises a more convenient way to manage headphones and speakers at a gaming desk. This mid-range DAC and headphone amp combines plenty of power with physical controls for volume, bass, and treble. I’ve spent two weeks seeing how it fits into my setup. Here is my review. Desk duty I combined the K7 with my current daily driver, the Sendy Audio Apollo PRO headphones, for the majority of the review process, using the 4.4mm balanced output. I know how great these headp

The Epomaker HE65 V2 TMR gaming keyboard impressed me as soon as I started typing. It sounds good, feels solid, and costs $99.99, which makes the adjustable magnetic switches and wireless connectivity all the more appealing. I’ve been using it for around two weeks for work and gaming. Here is my review. Great from stock Writing thousands of words a day gives me plenty of time to notice when a keyboard becomes annoying, whether that’s an unpleasant spacebar or a sound I quickly get ti

The KiiBOOM Phantom81 V4 combines a frosted acrylic case with RGB lighting and, on my pink review unit, Pink Rose switches. It looks fantastic, though $199.99 is a lot to ask when there are so many good mechanical keyboards around. Here is my review. Pink done well The Phantom81 V4’s pink finish works particularly well with the frosted case. Lighting spreads through the body and around the keys, giving the whole keyboard a look that stands out on the desk. I can certainly understand

The KiiBOOM Phantom98 Lite combines a clear case with quiet Mossy Silent switches and a compact layout that still includes a number pad. It’s rare to find super-stylish keyboards that include a number pad, so I’ve been keen to get it in for review. Keeping things quiet Out of the box, the Phantom98 Lite impresses with its aesthetic. I have the clear version, which is arguably the more subtle of the range. Despite this, the transparent keycaps become the star of the show w

The Questyle QCC Dongle Pro2 aims to enhance iPhones with the ability to transmit audio using LDAC, aptX, and other high-quality Bluetooth formats. For gamers reading here on GameRevolution, this product also works with PS5 and Switch. For anyone with compatible wireless headphones, that makes this tiny USB-C transmitter an interesting upgrade. After using it for the past month, it’s time for my review. Better Bluetooth I used the Pro2 dongle with my iPhone 18 Pro Max and Status Pro X

The Maono G3 Audio Mixer immediately caught my attention as I’ve been looking at alternatives to my GoXLR, partly out of concern about future software support. At an aggressive price point, $99.99, Maono offers four faders and separate audio mixes for you, your teammates, and your audience. It certainly looks promising on paper, but how did it fare during my testing? Here is my review. Hands on I temporarily swapped the G3 into my Windows PC setup, connecting my Earthworks Ethos over

UGREEN’s MagFlow Pro 10000mAh 25W Magnetic Power Bank makes a portable battery more interesting with visible liquid cooling, a charging display, and a built-in USB-C cable. Whether those extras justify the price is the bigger question. Here is my review. Power on the go I’ve carried the MagFlow Pro Magnetic Power Bank on days out taking photos and filming videos on vacation in Berlin, using the magnetic attachment to top up my iPhone 18 Pro Max between shots. It holds securely, but a

UGREEN’s MagFlow 2-in-1 Foldable 25W Magnetic Wireless Charger packs phone and earbud charging into a small folding stand. Its compact shape is the obvious attraction, though it still needs to hold a large phone, like the iPhone 18 Pro Max, properly. Here is my review. Easy to pack I packed the MagFlow 2-in-1 charger for my recent trip to Berlin, where it gave my iPhone 18 Pro Max and AirPods 4 a shared charging spot without spreading separate chargers across the bedside table. Folding

UGREEN’s MagFlow Pro 3-in-1 25W Magnetic Wireless Charger adds active cooling to the familiar phone, watch, and earbuds charging stand. It’s an interesting upgrade for anyone concerned about the heat built up when charging. After using it for three weeks, here is my review. Desk duty Throughout my testing, I’ve kept the MagFlow Pro 3-in-1 charger on my office desk, topping up my iPhone 18 Pro Max and AirPods 4 while working. If I had an Apple Watch, I could charge that too with the bui

The Noble FoKus Amadeus TWS earphones combine a bold red design with sound that you can tailor to your hearing. In a world where AirPods have taken over the mainstream with their “just okay” sound, companies like Noble Audio keep pushing the envelope with style and audio proficiency. Here is my review. Looks the part The red finish looks great in photos and I’m happy to say it looks even better in person. The Amadeus has plenty of character. The earbuds themselves are fairly substant

The iPhone 18 Pro Max has excellent hardware, but I was bored of it within 24 hours. Transferring my apps and settings was straightforward, and once everything was in place, it felt like the same iPhone experience again. Here is my review. Easy to live with The 18 Pro Max’s screen looks excellent all the time, but HDR movies really show it off. Gaming is similarly easy to enjoy, with PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty Mobile running well, and I haven’t noticed uncomfortable heat while playin

The MIXX Revival 65 vinyl record player aims to make getting into vinyl simple, with a retro suitcase design and speakers built into the case. It’s an appealing combination for anyone who wants to enjoy their record collection without immediately putting together a separate sound system. Here is my review. Looks the part The cream finish on my review unit looks great – blue and black variants are also available – and the suitcase design serves a purpose beyond the styling. Close it up

The Acer Predator X27U F5 gaming monitor combines a 500 Hz refresh rate with a QD-OLED panel. That’s an impressive pairing for fast-paced games, though the picture quality makes it appealing well beyond competitive shooters. After using it for work, gaming, and movies, here is my review. OLED goodness As soon as you turn the X27U F5 on, the 27” 1440p display looks fantastic. Colours are vibrant, blacks are properly black, and HDR gives bright highlights plenty of impact. Games an
