Top 5 myths about our gadgets, which are naive to believe today

Image
Top 5 myths about our gadgets, which are naive to believe today 86% are sure that the more “megapixels” in the camera,  the better pictures Of course, it is not. The role of “megapixels” in the quality of images is greatly exaggerated: the size of the matrix is much more important, for example. But sometimes it does not even indicate. 52% are sure that charging a smartphone all night is bad for a battery By the way, another 17% believe that before charging the battery should be discharged "to zero." But this is not the funny thing: for example, residents of California in their search queries are often interested in whether you can charge your smartphone in the microwave. Forget about stereotypes: charge all night for health (only not in the microwave). 31% are sure that the radiation of screeners can erase the contents of the HDD and memory cards This myth is already with a beard: when everything was filmed, it was really worth being wary of ...

KOSS GMR headset lineup overview: for both games and music

Image
KOSS GMR headset lineup overview: for both games and music This headset does not sparkle backlighting and does not attempt to recreate the 5.1 / 7.1 formats. It is designed for those who appreciate high-quality stereo without unnecessary bells and whistles - both gamers and music lovers. Strictly speaking, the manufacturer has just four very similar models. They differ in the type of connection (available with standard jacks and USB connectors), as well as the design of the cups (closed and open). If the connection type is essentially a technical point, then the variations with cups became interesting to us, so we asked for the test both options. Which headphones are better: open or closed? Actually, why buy open headphones if you can take closed ones? After all, they isolate your ears from external noise, allowing you to enjoy the music or special effects of games in full. In fact, everything is a little more complicated. As practice shows, in closed headphon...

Sony WH-1000XM3 Headphone Practice Test: Top Sound, Comfort and Noise Reduction

Image
Sony WH-1000XM3 Headphone Practice Test: Top Sound, Comfort and Noise Reduction Following a detailed practical test, we are ready to tell you about the latest Sony headphones model WH-1000XM3, what has changed compared to a very good predecessor and what sound, noise reduction and comfort were like. WH-1000XM3 is a new top Over-Ear model from Sony with an active noise cancellation system. Headphones surround the ear and effectively dampen ambient noise with its Noise-Canceling technology. To do this, the headphones are equipped with several microphones, which are perceived by this ambient noise. Due to this, the device's processor provides the driver with antiphase sound waves and thus provides a noticeable silence. During practical testing, it worked very well, like the previous model, the Sony WH-1000XM2. The technology reliably dampens low frequencies, and the higher ones muffle, but still penetrate. Voices and high rattling can be heard, but they no longer i...
