Turtle Beach outs Xbox One headsets, Call of Duty: Ghosts- and Marvel-branded cans
In May, Turtle Beach shouted from the hilltops that it snagged Microsoft's blessing to craft Xbox One headsets, and now it's ready to show off the actual hardware. Based on the outfit's Seven Series, the pair of XO Ear Force cans will be available at the console's launch and feature 3.5mm jacks, detachable boom mics and deliver surround sound through wired connections to controller adapters. At $149, the XO Seven boasts a "premium finish," on-ear cups with noise-isolating memory foam cushions, interchangeable speaker plates and a breakaway cable with an in-line mic for use with mobile devices. Liberating $99 from your wallet, however, will net you the more budget-friendly XO Four, which can also be used with devices outfitted with 3.5mm ports. Bringing other platforms into the mix, Turtle Beach unveiled a trio of Call of Duty: Ghosts-branded headsets, but remained mum on pricing. The wireless Ear Force Phantom boasts dual-band WiFi, rechargeable batteries and compatibility with the Xbox 360, PS3 and mobile devices. The wired Spectre and Shadow are presumably less pricey, and play nice with PC and Mac as well. Sure, E3 may be a video game bonanza, but comic fans are getting some love with an Ear Force Seven headset embellished with Marvel branding, a red accent and swappable speaker covers with different characters.
Lenovo launches the frosty white i60 and i60s
At first glance Lenovo's i60 and i60s sets really do look grand with the requisite screen reflection, really clean lines, and the general lack of clutter. Of course, good things come to and end and a brief peek under the hood tells a different tale. The i60 (pictured left) is a dual-band phone with a nice 3-inch WQVGA display, support for up to 16GB of memory, and even dual-SIM slots. The i60s has a slightly smaller 2.8-inch WQVGA display, also only ships with dual-band GSM support, and changes up the face design with the inclusion of a few more buttons. So the obvious take away is that we won't be seeing this in North America, neither seem -- the spec sheet is a bit wonky -- to have Bluetooth or WiFi, and no OS is mentioned, though, neither has the proper hardware configuration for either Windows Mobile or Android.[Via ittechnews]Read - Lenovo's i60Read - Lenovo's i60s
