Les meilleurs casques de jeu de la gamme. C’est ainsi qu’Asus a annoncé l’arrivée d’un nouveau casque audio et de deux paires d’écouteurs qui accompagnent la sortie des ROG Phone 5, les nouveaux smartphones gaming de la marque.

Once again building on the high-end audio experience and enhanced audio immersion promised thanks to the partnership with specialist Dirac, Rog makes the product coincide with speech. And what better way than to offer your own accessories for this. The Taiwanese firm took advantage of its conference on Wednesday to introduce its newcomers and relaunch itself in the audio market.

The Rog Strix go BT: the immersive helmet

This wireless helmet promises an unrivalled experience in terms of immersion. Taking advantage of the adaptive audio technology Qualcomm aptX and low latency, the Rog Strix go BT ensures a seamless, high-quality Bluetooth sound. He can count on the active noise reduction that will block the parasitic ambient noise during the game, but also on an ASUS AI microphone with artificial intelligence that will highlight the voice on the cats during the game session. A cable with a 3.5mm jack socket allows the helmet to be connected to any console, PC or other compatible smartphone.

Les écouteurs ROG Cetra II : l’option filaire USB-C et lumière

These intraatrial ones bet on an amazing sound. They connect to a device via their USB-C connector, because these are wireline headphones. They will be able to be connected to the Rog Phone 5 as well as to any other compatible smartphone, but also to Windows and Mac PCs and even the Nintendo switch. The Rog Cetra II also have the ANC technology to play in the best conditions without parasites. But they also have an ambient mode so as not to be too isolated from the world around them.

Each ASUS Gasoline earpiece is made of liquid silicone rubber, as are the supplied ultra-flexible tips. It optimizes the quality of the sound and allows more robust bass. Integrated noise control microphones highlight the voice to make it clearer.

The Rog Cetra II keeps the Rog touch with the presence of an RGB light set on the headphones. Via the software Aura sync of the Rog Phone 5, it is possible to synchronize them with the lighting chosen for the smartphone.

Les écouteurs ROG Cetra II Core : prêts pour la PS5 et la Xbox Series X

Quite similar to Rog Cetra II, but without ANC, the core version of headphones is a more affordable version. It retains RGB compatibility at the atria level. Also made of liquid silicone rubber, these intruders have extended multiplatform compatibility.
