Review: HP H300 Gaming Headset is cool!




Its name is great in the gaming peripheral industry, but it's never been associated as a high-class device, that's the "bitter" reality that HP has to bear. Although now they are beginning to try to crawl up and plug their identity through the ranks named "OMEN", HP also sebenanrya have many gaming products that formulated outside of the increasingly popular name. Still trying to break into the PC peripheral market with affordable price appeal, they offer a commensurate quality, even more.

It's hard to deny that you who follow the gaming peripheral market so far will immediately think of one other product after seeing this HP H300. The round shape of the cup and the flexible head support, complete with a fairly elegant design from the outside may make you feel you are looking at a SteelSeries headset remotely. Fortunately, the HP logo and blue LED blinks as the only color you can enjoy from it will erase the image instantly. Equipped with synthetic leather for extra comfort, the HP H300 meets a variety of standard designs that you can anticipate from a headset gaming product.

There is something interesting about what HP is trying to offer here. That unlike most headsets that offer between port jack or USB, it presents both. Unfortunately, not for the reason you are predicting. Not because HP wants to make sure that the headset works and adapt to your condition that may have a personal preference, but to enable the functionality that HP sells as one of the HP300 "strengths" at the price level they offer. Absolutely, LED and vibration function.

Serves as a power for headsets and not a port that allows you to use it only with a USB slot only, extra USB cable embedded at the end of this headset is focused to produce vibration effects and LED lights. There are no support drivers and the like, but you will get a bright blue LED light that lights up with it. As if to establish its identity as a current gaming headset, it makes LED as a feature that can not be separated just like that. While the vibrating function, as the name implies, makes your headset end up vibrating according to the sound produced, especially when heavy bass or a certain volume is generated.

To be honest, we are not fans for this kind of vibration function. Gamers who are easily amused or used to hear music in loud volume seem to be faced with a sensation that is quite awkward in the ear. At least, for us, he pulled in early, but started interrupting for gaming sessions that lasted for a long time. Vibration not only creates a unique sensation in your ears, but also heat. Although we are sure, that not a few gamers out there who enjoy this feature, considering HP considering to provide it as a special feature in this HP300. But again, this is an option. You can still enjoy the H300 without it, using only two jack heads provided. Unfortunately, there is no option to turn this vibrate function manually to "only" get the aesthetic value of the LEDs alone.

For business design, beyond this vibration function, the HP 300 still countless headsets are quite comfortable. Flexible head support means keeping it comfortable for gamers with large heads, including us. On the left side of the headset, you will also be offered a mic that can also be dribbled to facilitate your need to communicate inside the game. The good news? The quality of his mic is no doubt to ensure your voice comes in clear and clear condition. The bad news? The position of this transverse mic is inviolable. You can not bend it up or pull it completely, making the headset end up wider than it should be. The result? It's almost impossible to make it your "portable" audio device without consuming your storage space. The design decisions that are in our eyes, quite absurd.



So, what is actually offered HP H300 this? Here are the various "selling points" he drew:

Gold plated 3.5mm + USB Gaming Headset

Cool LED Design make you become highlight in the crowd

Audio headset used 4D analog loadspeaker displacement techology to let you feel sock and real

Dual Metal Headband ensure high quality and durability

HP H300, How Good?

With the price level that it offers and the range of conversations they are trying to raise as the focus of attraction, then you seem to be able to infer what HP is trying to pursue with this H300. It is not the type of headset for an audiophile capable of capturing standby.

Music

In keeping with our personal preference, music is the reason we turn off the full H300 vibration functionality. With the preference of most music that is basing itself on the bass boom, this vibration function will "kill" our ears so quickly. Detail bass sound that comes out of this headset is well calculated, especially if you love music that does not need as much detail as Trap or Metal, for example. Hearing Chinese Trap music groups such as the famous Higher Brothers through the song "Made in China" and "Yahh !!" still produce a thrilling sensation to thumbs up. Compensation from the bass sound that is not too strong can always be created from a louder volume of sound.

Game

there is no better game to test this H300's ability than Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice that makes audio one of the essential experiences to enjoy it. Enjoying the sounds of senua psychosis, the rustle of effects that appear around his neighborhood, until just the sound of the sword when the battle projected quite well on this H300. But again, the decision to use the vibrating effect he offers will return to you. His ability to capture the horrific details of horizontal sound inside Hellblade quite well seems to be a solid testimony that regardless of the price he offers, HP ensures the H300 works the way a headset deserves a "gaming" title on it.



Conclusion

For a product that bears the name of "gaming" in it, HP must be recognized to deliver the proper quality for the H300, especially considering the price level they offer for it. It's not designed to offer fantastic sound detail, but it offers space for gamers who really need a private space to enjoy music, games, or movies coming out of their PC. Gamers who love bass or who just need a headset with a hard volume to enjoy the variety of multimedia content that there will love this headset, especially if you end up crazy about the vibration feature that is also provided by this H300. But of course, it has many other disadvantages such as rigid placement of the mic that can not be contested, until the LED and vibration functions that can not be separated.


HP H300 is currently priced at about $ 29 in the market.
