The Creative T60 is the latest launch from the brand that includes its new Creative App with its SmartComms kit.

Adidas are not a brand you would typically associate with headphones, but as a sports brand, they have started to venture into sports focussed headphones. The Adidas RPT-01 are a unique looking pair of over-the-head headphones, which is not particularly a style I would associate with sports. However, I have enjoyed using them and…

The latest is the Creative T60 speakers, which are more advanced than the existing T40 and T20 series by using USB-C connectivity rather than a 3.5mm aux in (though they still have that)….
Page 2 has alternative options including soundbars Following my recent review of the Creative Sound Blaster X4 external soundcard, which has 5.1 output, I thought I would look into the best surround sound speaker options for PC gaming.

I have not posted much about Carl Pei’s new company Nothing, yet, because most of the news has been uninteresting. The marketing strategy has been to trickle minor bits of none newsworthy information.
