EPOMAKER TH108 V2 Pro review

The EPOMAKER TH108 V2 Pro continues the company’s push into affordable enthusiast mechanical keyboards, pairing a traditional full-size layout with features that until recently were largely reserved for more expensive custom boards. A gasket-mounted design, hot-swappable switches, tri-mode wireless connectivity and a customizable display give it plenty of appeal on paper, while its sub-$100/€100 price positions it as an attractive option for gamers and productivity users alike. The question is whether those premium ambitions translate into everyday use. Continue reading “EPOMAKER TH108 V2 Pro review”

EPOMAKER Carbonis review

EPOMAKER has been building a strong reputation on enthusiast-grade mechanical keyboards at accessible prices, but the Carbonis represents a more aggressive push into high-performance gaming peripherals. Rather than easing into the category, the company targets the premium end immediately with a carbon fiber composite shell, flagship PixArt PAW3950 sensor, support for wireless 8,000Hz polling, and modern conveniences such as an integrated LCD screen and browser-based configuration tools. On paper, it is positioned to compete directly with established esports-focused brands, though its success ultimately depends on execution rather than specification density.

HyperX Origins 2 65 review

HyperX has gradually evolved from a brand known primarily for dependable gaming peripherals into one increasingly willing to experiment with enthusiast-inspired hardware design, and the Origins 2 65 reflects that shift clearly. Rather than simply shrinking a traditional gaming keyboard into a smaller footprint, HyperX has tried to create something that appeals both to competitive players and to users who care about typing feel, acoustics, and customization. The result is a compact mechanical keyboard that feels far more deliberate than many of the lightweight “gaming-first” 65% boards currently flooding the market.

Razer Raiju V3 Pro PS5 review

Razer’s Raiju line has long targeted competitive players who want something sharper and more specialized than Sony’s standard gamepads (like the DualSense), and the PlayStation 5-specific Raiju V3 Pro continues that philosophy with unapologetic focus. Officially licensed for PS5 and compatible with PC, this version leans heavily into esports priorities: low latency, mechanical actuation, modular back inputs, and symmetrical thumbsticks that echo legacy PlayStation layouts while refining them for tournament play. It is immediately clear that this is not trying to replicate the DualSense feature set, but rather to streamline it for performance-first users. Continue reading “Razer Raiju V3 Pro PS5 review”
