Tech Head – June 2021

Xbox Wireless Headset
Microsoft has released an official headset and it’s surprisingly good. It’s got a simple and sleek design, but it’s very comfortable to wear and incredibly easy to use. It syncs quickly to all Xbox consoles, but also can be used with PCs and mobile devices via Bluetooth. The 40mm drivers don’t make for the loudest sound, but it’s well balanced and clear, giving you an awesome surround sound experience. Add 15-hours of battery life and a reasonable $149.95 asking price and you have a great Xbox accessory well worth getting.

LG Gram 17
This is the first time that TV maker LG has released a laptop in Australia and it’s amazing. The best thing about it is that it gives you a huge 17” screen, but somehow it’s incredibly light. It weighs less than most 13” laptops! Despite this, it’s pretty powerful, with a 2.8GHz quad-core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, 19.5 hours of battery life and a superfast NVMe2 hard drive. Our only complaint is that it doesn’t have a proper graphics card, so while it can play plenty of games, it can’t play the latest blockbusters with all the graphics effects.

Fitbit Ace 3
Fitbit has released a new version of its fitness tracker that’s designed especially for kids. The Fitbit Ace 3 not only tracks steps and activity, but also sleep, making sure you’re getting the proper amount of rest. It’s swim proof, too, and as you might expect, it comes in a range of colours. We also like the way it challenges you with goals to complete. There’s even a character you can watch grow during the day as you do more steps. Add 8-days of battery life and this is one fun way to stay healthy.
