Information on PunQtum Q915 and Q925 Headsets: Details and Insights
In an exciting development for the gaming and AV/IT communities, PunQtum has unveiled its latest offerings: the PunQtum Q915 and Q925 headsets. These new headsets mark a significant leap forward in terms of audio quality, microphone technology, comfort, and connectivity options.
Key Features & Specifications
PunQtum Q915
The Q915 headset boasts enhanced drivers that deliver crisp, immersive sound with improved bass response. Its noise-cancelling microphone is optimized for clear voice communication during gaming or calls. The Q915 features an ergonomic design with memory foam ear cushions for extended wear, making it comfortable for long gaming sessions.
Connectivity-wise, the Q915 offers a wired connection with a braided cable for durability, along with USB and 3.5mm jack options. Inline controls for volume and mic mute are also included. The Q915 is compatible with PCs, consoles, and mobile devices, and it comes with RGB lighting that can be customized via software.
PunQtum Q925 (Higher-end than Q915)
The Q925 headset takes the Q915's features to the next level. It boasts premium 50mm drivers with a wider frequency range and a richer soundstage. The advanced retractable boom mic features active noise cancellation, ensuring disruption-free listening for the end user.
The Q925 offers a more upgraded lightweight design, complete with cooling gel-infused ear pads for added comfort. It comes with dual wireless options—2.4 GHz RF and Bluetooth, plus wired mode—and boasts a battery life of up to 20 hours wireless use. The Q925 features touch-sensitive earcup controls and physical buttons for easy operation.
Additional features include customizable RGB lighting, software EQ tuning, and surround sound support (7.1 virtual surround).
Comparison With Discontinued Models (Q910 and Q920)
The PunQtum Q910 and Q920 headsets, which have been discontinued, were earlier generation models. The Q910 had adequate stereo drivers but less refined sound quality, while the Q920 had some refined audio drivers and added basic noise reduction for the microphone.
Both models lacked wireless options, with the Q910 featuring a basic wired connection without a braided cable, and the Q920 having more durable cables but still no wireless option. The Q910 and Q920 also had simpler comfort features, with foam ear pads and limited controls on the cable.
