Review: Logitech G302 Daedalus Prime Gaming Mouse
Logitech has a horde of gaming accessories, and among them is the simple, yet impressive Daedalus Prime, the mouse for MOBA lovers. It has been designed for a specific group of people with a specific aim, which means it does a lot of things incredibly well that other mice don’t. It also means that the mouse lacks in a lot of places, which might be a hassle. Connection: full-speed USB corded Yes Programmable buttons 6 Sensor High-definition optical Maximum resolution with on-the-fly DPI shifting 4,000 dpi System support Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista The Logitech G302 hugs the ground (meaning it’s quite low), and measures about 4.5 x 2.6 x 1.5 inches. It has a unique shape as well, like something inspired from a futuristic sci-fi movie. Personally, I did not fi...

Choke-A-Hoe! Final Fantasy XV Review
Yes, this is a Final Fantasy for Fans & First Timers alike. And that’s a monumental achievement in itself, given how deep-rooted in tradition JRPG mechanics the franchise is. One of the things that made this abundantly clear (other than the obligatory disclaimer the game throws up every time it boots) was how quickly I was thrown right into the beautiful open world. After a brief opening cutscene, the game had me off on a roadtrip with the best of friends, pushing a fancy, albeit broken down, car down the road. As the vastness of the world of Eos greeted my eyes, and a cover of Stand By Me greets my ears, I knew that this was going to be, uh, finally fantastic. And the reason for the roadtrip, a journey to Accordo’s capital city of Altissia, where Noctis’s wedding to ...
Review: MSI GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro Gaming Laptop
A gaming laptop can either give you good performance or portability, but not both – this has been a major problem for a long time. But not anymore. The MSI GS63VR Stealth Pro packs quite a punch, with a GTX 1060 in a 17.7mm thick panel, making it one of the slimmest 10-series laptops in the world. Specifications CPU 2.6-GHz Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor Operating System Windows 10 Home RAM 16GB RAM Upgradable to 32GB Hard Drive Size 128GB Hard Drive Type M.2 SSD Secondary Hard Drive Size 1TB Secondary Hard Drive Speed 5,400 Secondary Hard Drive Type SATA Hard Drive Display Size 15.6 Native Resolution 1920×1080 Optical Drive None Graphics Card Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 GPU Video Memory 6 GB Wi-Fi 802.11ac Wi-Fi Model Killer N1535 Combo 2*2 ac Bluetooth Bluetooth 4.1 Touchpad Size ...
Review: Logitech G403 Prodigy Gaming Mouse
The Logitech G403 is one of the latest Prodigy series mice, aimed at making gaming more affordable for new and budget-wary PC gamers. It follows the classic ergonomic right-handed design popularized by the Razer DeathAdder. The price however, puts it in direct competition against not the entry level mice, but established, well known names. Gaming mice are often identified by their unique and exotic shapes, but the G403 keeps it simple and classy. The shape that feels very natural and familiar to hold. In contrast to high end gaming mice like the Razer Naga or the Logitech G600 which boast of a horde of buttons, it takes things back to the basics with two side buttons, and one DPI switch button in addition to the conventional left-click, right-click buttons and the scroll wheel. The G403 ha...
Logitech G231 Prodigy Gaming Headset Review
Logitech came up with the whole Prodigy peripheral line up to help ease new players them into the sphere of gaming. They are trying to appeal to a new generation of gamers who just started out on their gaming journeys. One of the products, the G231 was a result of this. A G230 with better sound and mic quality….and a higher price tag. Design It’s kind of an upgrade from the G230 as both have the same washable ear-pads, same noise cancellation microphone and pretty much the overall same style. The main difference between the G230 and G231 is the 3.5mm jack. It now has the combo microphone and headphone all in one. But it does come with the splitter in case you want to use it on the laptop. Specific to this model is the in-line controls through which you can turn your mic on/off ...
Review: Logitech G213 Prodigy Gaming Keyboard
The Logitech G213 Prodigy is an entry level gaming keyboard which aims to make your gaming experience more affordable. Sure, it’s not a mechanical keyboard, but that doesn’t stop it from getting the job done. It looks much similar to an office keyboard when it’s off. It has the standard full key layout with a numeric keypad on the right hand side and a row Fn keys (or F keys) at the top. Above the numeric keypad there is a set of dedicated media keys, along with a mute key and volume control buttons. A separate key is provided for turning the LED backlight on and off. The keyboard has a full RGB 16.8 million colour backlight, meaning you can set it to any colour of your choice. There are a variety of LED customizations that you can apply; Static (set it to a single colour...
Review: Logitech G610 Orion Blue Gaming Keyboard
Simple and elegant. These are probably the two best words to describe the Logitech G610 Orion Gaming Keyboard. It comes with two variants, one with Cherry MX Brown and Cherry MX Blue switches. Today we review the G610 Orion Blue, which as the name suggests, has the Blue Cherry MX Switch. It features the characteristic tactile bump, which lets you know that the key has been pressed. You need to apply a bit of pressure for that to happen, meaning that it can greatly reduce errors you might make while typing as lightly grazing over the key will not register as a keystroke. The keys also make a very satisfying clicking sound as your press them, which some groups might consider as music to their ears. Theoretically, it’s the ideal keyboard for people with intense typing work. Talking abou...
Review: Logitech G102 Prodigy Gaming Mouse
A successor to the G100s, the Logitech G102 follows the classic G1 series design, though it comes with some handy perks and customizations. Not only is there a performance improvement, but Logitech has also made sure that their entry level gaming mouse is jazzed up in terms of looks as well. The design of the mouse, though symmetrical in appearance can’t exactly be called ambidextrous as it features the side buttons on the left side of the mouse. It looks simple and is relatively low, designed for users with small to medium sized hands. The Logitech G102 Prodigy comes in two colours: black and white. Both come in a delicate matte finish, though it still feels very smooth while holding. The side buttons and the DPI shift button on the top have a glossy texture and feel much lighter. T...
Review: MSI VR ONE Backpack PC
VR is one of the biggest trends right now, and with great virtual reality, comes a greater wired connection. Fortunately, we are there’s an emerging tech that aims to take care of these issues and make VR a less limited medium – VR backpack PCs. Today, we review one of the first such systems available for the enthusiasts, the MSI VR ONE. Let’s take a look at the specs. The highly portable backpack comes with an i7-6820HK processor and a GTX 1070 8GB graphics card. It has up to 32GB DDR4 RAM and a 512 GB SSD.

It has two batteries which claim to give more than 1.5 hours of continuous VR ...

Best Gaming Laptops Under Rs. 50,000 In India
It’s hard to believe how technology has evolved over the years. I can still remember the first time I saw a laptop, it was one of those black IBM laptops with the red button in the middle of the keyboard with which you controlled the mouse. I think that was around 1998-2000 sometime when my mum brought one of those ancient things from work and back then it was probably one of the best pieces of machinery you could get your hands on. Fast forward about 15 years and here we are now, concepts like VR are on the verge of becoming mainstream, 3D printers already finding it’s place in office spaces and Donald Trump being elected as the 45th President of America, it’s hard to believe how so much has changed in so little time. Now days what you can do on laptops people might not ...
