Technically the successor owner of the gaming brand.
Epos has announced that it will be exiting the gaming headphone business and will instead focus on enterprise communications products. The company’s gaming products…
KᑌᔕᕼIᗩ ( @Kushia@lemmy.ml ) English5•2 years agoBetter off buying a headset and mic separately anyway imo. Most headset mics sound like trash and by limiting yourself to just gaming products it usually means settling for something subpar too.
