Specifications are from the Hoover website and the ONEPWR Evolve Pet Elite manual. Frequently asked questionsWhat is the difference between Hoover Evolve and Emerge cordless vacuums? The most significant difference between the Hoover Evolve and Hoover Emerge cordless vacuums is that the Evolve is an upright style whereas the Emerge is a stick vacuum style. How long do Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet Elite batteries last? When on the lowest power setting, the Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet Elite with a single ONEPWR 4.0 Ah battery can achieve a maximum of 35 minutes of cleaning time. What types of Hoover devices use ONEPWR batteries? The Hoover ONEPWR system includes several types of vacuums including wet/dry, handheld, upright, and stick vacuums, as well as an air blower and flashlight. What is the largest ONEPWR battery available? Currently, the largest capacity ONEPWR battery is a 20 volt 8 Ah battery. The Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet Elite is available for purchase online, including at the retailer(s) below. 9.2/10 Hoover Onepwr Evolve cordless vacuum review
Pros
Cons
About the Hoover Onepwr Evolve Cordless Vacuum
What we likeIt boasts excellent cleaning staminaCredit: The Onepwr Evolve gives you the ability to check the power level even when detached. The Hoover Onepwr Evolve cordless vacuum has one of the best batteries on the market. In fact, the Onepwr is actually an entire ecosystem of battery-powered products. Everything from leaf blowers to carpet cleaners can be powered by the same battery that comes with the Evolve. Because the Evolve’s battery needs to be able to power all sorts of devices, it needs plenty of juice. During testing, we found that the included battery lasted 19 minutes on the max setting. This is one of the highest battery life spans that we’ve ever tested, and to boot, this model comes with two batteries. Thirty-eight minutes of max power is more than most cordless vacuums have on their lowest settings. With the Onepwr charger, you can have one battery in the vacuum and one powering up, for a continuous clean. Batteries like these take many hours to juice up so it’s a good idea to always have one in the charger. Beyond the battery, the Hoover Onepwr Evolve also has a larger dirt cup capacity than a stick vacuum. It can hold up to one liter of dirt and pet hair, and this amount is roughly double the average. This means fewer trips for you to the trash to dump the cup, and no worrying about tripping on a cord while you do it. Its cleaning ability is goodCredit: The Evolve’s extra-large dustbin means fewer trips to the trash for you. A good cordless vacuum needs to be able to clean your floor, and the Hoover Onepwr Evolve delivers. During its time in our labs, we subjected it to our dirty test carpets and measured how much dirt it picked up with each pass. On average, this Hoover suctioned up about 85% of our testing dirt in a single go. That’s above average, putting it in the same league as many high-end Dysons. And, while not the most elegant-looking of cordless vacuums, we found that it maneuvers around furniture without worrying about a cord and glides from room to room easily. What we don’t likeNo handheld modeCredit: The Hoover Evolve’s lack of a handheld mode means it’s designed for floors only. We said earlier that the Hoover Onepwr Evolve was designed to replace your upright. On carpets or your hard floors, it totally succeeds, but not anywhere else. The majority of cordless vacuums can convert into handheld models that can clean cars and slide across upholstery. Most uprights have a hose that you can detach in the back to do the same. The Evolve can do neither. It specializes in cleaning floors and that’s it. Difficult to clean the stairs withThe Hoover Onepwr Evolve tips the scales at over eight pounds. This makes it one of the heaviest cordless vacuums we’ve ever tested. To put this in perspective, the LG CordZero and Dyson V15 weigh about 25% less. This means it’s more difficult to vacuum stairs than its competitors, especially for people who are older or who may have strength limitations. What users are saying?On Amazon, the Hoover Onepwr Evolve gets 4.3 stars out of 5 with 4,285 ratings. People who like the Evolve enjoy its power and its removable battery. However, consumers voice their frustrations about getting replacement parts. Should you buy the Hoover Onepwr Evolve?Yes, if you’re willing to get a separate hand vacuumThe Hoover Onepwr Evolve passed our floor cleaning tests with flying colors—both in how much. However, that’s all it can really do. Lacking the ability to transform into a handheld unit means it can’t deal with tight spaces or upholstery. The Onepwr ecosystem does include a hand vacuum that’s sold separately. If you’re willing to buy that in addition to the Evolve, then you’ll have a top-tier cleaning team.

Close the Loop Between Wireless Charger Receiver and Transmitter Without Digital Controllers
by
Wenwei Li
Download PDF
Introduction
Wireless charging is increasingly utilized for small size wearable devices, as it eliminates the need for cables or any exposed connectors on the device. For applications with charge current less than 10 mA, closed-loop control between the wireless charger receiver and the transmitter is not required as the power dissipation is low. However, for higher charge current, it is essential for the transmitter to actively adjust its output power based on the demands of its receiver and coupling coefficient between the two sides. Otherwise, the receiver may have to dissipate the extra power in the form of heat, impacting the user experience and posing a threat to the health of the battery. Digital communication from the receiver to the transmitter is usually used to close this loop, but digital control adds complexity in overall design and increases the size of the application.
This article introduces a method for closing the loop between the receiver and the transmitter without increasing the number of components (and precious overall footprint) on the receiver board. A closed-loop, controlled wireless charger prototype is built using an LTC4125 AutoResonant™ transmitter and an LTC4124 wireless Li-Ion charger receiver to demonstrate this concept.
AutoResonant Transmitter with a Duty Cycle Control Input
The LTC4125 is a monolithic, full-bridge AutoResonant wireless power transmitter designed to maximize the available power to the receiver, increase the overall efficiency, and provide thorough protection to the wireless charging system.
The LTC4125 implements an AutoResonant converter to drive the series-resonant tank composed of the transmit coil (LTX) and the transmit capacitor (CTX). The AutoResonant driver uses a zero-crossing detector to match its driving frequency with the resonant frequency of the tank. The SW1 and SW2 pins are the outputs of the two half-bridges inside the LTC4125. When the SWx pin senses the direction of its output current crosses zero from negative to positive, SWx is set to VIN for a duty cycle that is proportional to its corresponding PTHx pin voltage. When the SWx pin is set to VIN, current flowing in the transmitter resonant tank is increased. Therefore, the duty cycle of each bridge driver controls the amplitude of the tank current, which is in proportion to the transmit power. Figure 1 shows the tank current and voltage waveforms with a duty cycle less than 50%. The absolute value of the tank current amplitude is determined by the overall tank impedance, including the reflected load impedance from the wireless receiver.
Figure 1. AutoResonant LC tank voltage and current waveforms with square wave input at less than 50% duty cycle.
In typical operation, the LTC4125 sweeps the SWx duty cycle using an internal 5-bit DAC that sets the PTHx voltage to search for a valid load. If the FB pin sees certain patterns of voltage change, the sweep is stopped, and the duty cycle stays at that level for a programmable time period (usually set to around 3 s to 5 s). Then a new sweep cycle starts, repeating the same steps. If the load condition is changed during a sweep period, the LTC4125 will respond at the beginning of the next sweep period.
To form a closed loop, the transmit power of the bridge driver should adjust based on control input. One of the features in the LTC4125 is that the PTHx pin is not only an indicator of the bridge driver duty cycle, but can also be driven as an input to set the duty cycle. The internal 5-bit DAC sets the voltage target of PTHx pin with an internal pull-up resistor. However, as shown in Figure 2, an external pull-down resistor in series with a FET can be implemented to actively discharge a capacitor on PTHx pin, thus reducing the PTHx pin average voltage. The duty cycle of the PWM signal at the gate of this pulldown FET controls the average voltage on PTHx pin.
Figure 2. PTHx controlled by a PWM input signal.
The LTC4125 is designed to deliver over 5 W to a proper receiver. When paired with the LTC4124 receiver, the transmit power can be reduced by deactivating one of the half-bridge drivers. This is done by leaving the SW2 pin open and PTh3 shorted to GND. The transmit resonant tank can then be connected between SW1 pin and GND. In this way, the LTC4125 becomes a half-bridge transmitter to allow for a lower gain and wider control range on the PTh2 pin.
Generate Feedback Signal from the Wireless Charger Receiver Using LTC4124
The LTC4124 is a highly integrated 100 mA wireless Li-Ion charger designed for space-constrained applications. It includes an efficient wireless power manager, a pin programmable, full-featured linear battery charger, and an ideal diode PowerPath™ controller.
Figure 3. A complete wireless battery charger solution using the LTC4124 on a 6 mm application board.
The wireless power manager in the LTC4124 connects to a parallel resonant tank via an ACIN pin, allowing the linear charger to receive power wirelessly from an alternating magnetic field generated by a transmit coil. When the LTC4124 receives more energy than it needs to charge the battery at the programmed rate, the input capacitor of the linear charger on the VCC pin is charged up to absorb the extra energy. When the VCC pin voltage reaches 1.05 V over the battery voltage, VBAT, the wireless power manager shunts the receiver resonant tank to ground, until the VCC falls back down to 0.85 V over VBAT. In this way, the linear charger is highly efficient as its input is always kept just above its output.

The shunting event of the LTC4124 also reduces reflected load impedance on the transmit resonant tank, causing the amplitude of transmit tank current and voltage to rise. As the shunting event indicates the receiver is getting enough power from the transmitter, the rise of the transmit tank peak voltage can serve as a feedback signal for the transmitter to regulate its output power.
Figure 5. The rise of transmit tank voltage (VTX) during the shunting period of the LTC4124 receiver.
Demodulate the Feedback Signal and Close the Loop
Now that feedback signal from the receiver side is available on the transmitter side, this feedback signal needs to be translated and fed into the control input of the transmitter to close the control loop. The peak tank voltage can be obtained from a half-wave rectifier consisting of a diode and a capacitor CFB1, as shown in Figure 6. This voltage is further divided by resistors RFB1 and RFB2. To sense the change of the peak current, the peak voltage signal is averaged via a low-pass filter formed by a resistor (RAVG) and a capacitor (CAVG). By comparing this average signal to the original peak voltage signal, a square wave pulse can be generated. This pulse is then fed into the duty cycle control input of the LTC4125 to regulate the output power of the transmitter.
Figure 6. Feedback signal demodulation circuit on the transmitter side.
When the receiver is not getting enough energy, the LTC4125 should increase its output power. This can be achieved by setting the internal voltage target for the PTHx pin. The internal voltage target can be set by the PTHM pin as it sets the initial 5-bit DAC voltage level before the start of the LTC4125 search period. A 1 V voltage reference can be connected on IMON pin to disable the search, keeping the PTHx pin target voltage fixed at its initial value during the operation. If the LTC4124 receiver demands more power, the shunting event will stop and the PTHx discharging FET will not be activated. The PTHx voltage will be charged toward the internal voltage target until the LTC4124 receives enough power to start the shunting event.
The maximum transmit power is defined by measuring the PTHx voltage when the receiver is regulating maximum charge current at the worst coupling coefficient position in the application. The PTHM pin voltage should be set to meet the maximum transmit power requirement.
Features and Performance of the LTC4124- and LTC4125-Based Closed-Loop Wireless Charger
Figure 7 shows the complete schematic for the LTC4125-based closed-loop controlled transmitter and the 100 mA LTC4124-based receiver. As shown in the schematic, very few components are required on the receiver side, lowering the cost and reducing the volume of the receiver. On the transmitter side, compared to the LTC4125 typical applications, only a few additional components are used to achieve the closed-loop control. Most of the features for the LTC4125 are retained, including AutoResonant switching, multiple foreign detection methods, overtemperature protection, and resonant tank overvoltage protection. Details of these features can be found in the LTC4125 data sheet.
Figure 7. 100 mA LTC4124 charger receiver paired with LTC4125 AutoResonant closed-loop controlled transmitter.
The LTC4125-based closed-loop wireless transmitter can dynamically adjust its output power to match the power demand by the receiver. Figure 8 shows the behavior of this wireless charger when the receiver coil is moved away from the center of the transmitter coil and then quickly moved back to the original position. The output power of the LTC4125 transmitter, which is indicated by the peak transmit tank voltage VTX_PEAK, responds smoothly to the change of the coupling coefficient between the two coils to keep the charge current constant.
Figure 8. The LTC4124- and LTC4125-based closed-loop wireless charger response to a sudden change of the coupling coefficient between the transmitter and receiver.
During a charge current rise transient, the LTC4124 shunting event stops, allowing the LTC4125 to charge up its PTh2 pin internally. As a result, the LTC4125 increases its half-bridge driver duty cycle to boost the transmit power. Once the transmit power is large enough for the LTC4124 to regulate its charge current, the shunting event resumes and the duty cycle remains at an optimum level. During a charge current fall transient, the LTC4124 shunts much more frequently. The LTC4125 quickly discharges the capacitor on its PTh2 pin to lower the duty cycle and reduce the LTC4125 transmit power.
Figure 9. The LTC4124- and LTC4125-based closed-loop wireless charger response to a step up in charge current.
Figure 10. The LTC4124- and LTC4125-based closed-loop wireless charger response to a step down in charge current.
Figure 11. Zoomed-in waveform to show detail of the transient shown in Figure 10.
As the transmit power always matches the demand of the receiver, the overall efficiency is greatly improved compared to typical configurations of a LTC4124- and LTC4125-based wireless charger without closed-loop control. The efficiency curve is smoother without the internal DAC steps in the LTC4125 optimum power search operation. As power loss is greatly reduced, the LTC4124 charger and the battery remains near room temperature throughout the charging period.
Figure 12. Efficiency of various configurations of the LTC4125- and LTC4124-based wireless charger at 3.5 mm air gap.
Conclusion
The LTC4125 can be configured as a power adjustable transmitter with a control input. The shunting event of the LTC4124 wireless charger receiver can be used to provide a feedback signal to the transmitter. This feedback signal can then be demodulated using a half-wave rectifier, a voltage divider, a low-pass filter, and a comparator. The processed signal can then be fed into the power adjustable LTC4125-based transmitter to close the control loop. A prototype has been built to prove this concept. This prototype responds quickly and smoothly to the change of the coupling coefficient and the charge current. This method allows end-users to place the receiver on top of the transmitter with a higher degree of misalignment, without worrying that the receiver will get the power it needs. Furthermore, this closed-loop method also improves the overall efficiency by always matching the transmitter output power with the power demand of the receiver, keeping the entire charging period much safer and more reliable.

I have a 2016 Silverado with a console charger. My iPhone 8 would not work. This case works great, has to be upside down, but it works.
Update on review
After righting my review Bezalel reached out to remedy my situation in less than 10 minutes. They offered to replace my case for free once they received the broken one. I was not expecting this because the case did fall off my coffee table and broke, yet they stepped up to help me out. Great case, good look and texture. Just make sure it doesn’t drop on the plastic wireless plug cover.

What it’s about
There are several technologies for transmitting electricity through the air, including lasers, sound waves, and other interesting methods. But so far only one of them can be called commercial – the use of electromagnetic induction, through which Faraday and Tesla tried to transfer energy. The most common standard for inductive charging today has been developed by the Wireless Power Consortium for seven years. This standard is called the Chinese word Qi – pronounced as “chee” in English or as “qi” in the Russian translation tradition. It is officially supported by almost all mobile phone manufacturers, starting with Samsung, Sony, Lumia, and ending with small companies whose names do not tell anyone anything. Some American airports, British McDonald’s and Starbucks are promised to be equipped with charging stations that meet this standard within a year, and this, as it becomes clear, is only the beginning of the list. It also includes new IKEA furniture and lamps with built-in charging panels – they will start selling in Europe this month. Even Apple, which, as always, stands a little on the sidelines and does not officially support Qi, seems to still adhere to WPC principles in its watches.
How it works
Wireless charging using WPC technology involves the presence of telecoils in the phone and charger: one acts as a receiver, the other as a transmitter of electricity. When charging is connected to the mains, a voltage arises in it, and a magnetic field surrounds its transmitter coil. When a phone enters this field, electromagnetic waves in its receiver coil are converted into electricity – the phone’s battery starts charging. The Qi standard implies that for a full-fledged energy transfer, the distance between devices should not exceed 3–5 centimeters. That is, they should practically touch each other. Therefore, most of the current induction chargers are small panels on which you need to put your phone. At the same time, their efficiency is about 75-80% – slightly less than that of wired chargers.
What are the pros and cons
Speaking about the average user, inductive charging has only one significant advantage. It eliminates the need to connect the cable to the phone (player, camera, watch and other small devices). And although it is called wireless, it does not actually release the wire, since it is needed to connect the charging pad to the outlet. These panels have other drawbacks: they are a little more expensive and charge one and a half to two times slower on average. 9Is wireless charging dangerous? The manufacturers of electric shavers and electric toothbrushes are trying to convince everyone of the same thing – the same induction principle has been used to recharge them for a long time. But it should be borne in mind that electromagnetic waves, due to which wireless panels transmit energy, belong to the spectrum of the so-called non-ionizing (and therefore safe, unlike, say, X-ray) radiation. Electromagnetic waves of the same spectrum are used to transmit the signal of radio stations, cell towers, Wi-Fi routers. For example, a mobile phone signal is transmitted constantly and over much longer distances, but a small power (within 1-2 watts) is enough to operate its receiver. The maximum power of Qi standard wireless panels is much higher – 5 watts. But they (so far) work at extremely short distances, and besides, they automatically turn off (and therefore stop emitting waves) if the device is charged.
In any case, no one has yet presented convincing evidence that Qi wireless charging (as well as a cellular signal) can threaten health. However, the Wireless Power Consortium is also working on more powerful wireless chargers (up to 120 watts) capable of charging laptops. But they are still being cautious with these devices, and no one seems to be releasing them.
Which devices support Qi wireless charging
You can find out by searching on the WPC website. It is worth remembering that in order to carry out wireless charging, you need two things: a receiver and an energy transmitter. Some phones (and wearable devices) already have built-in charging modules, they are also receivers; to them it remains only to pick up a wireless panel, it is also a transmitter. Other phones – all iPhones, for example – do not yet support this technology. To them, in addition to the panel, you will also have to buy a special case or nozzle with a charging module that connects to your smartphone through the usual charging connector.
Examples of wireless chargers
Samsung Wireless Charging Pad
Samsung’s latest invention, which is touted for its ability to charge a phone regardless of its position on the charging pad. The charger supports not only the WPC standard, but also technologies from competing and lesser-known organizations AW4P and PMA. This means that, most likely, it will not matter to him what phone you have. If there is a wireless charging module, everything should work. Also in the manufacturer’s video, they promise that this Wireless Charging Pad can charge the Galaxy battery by 60% while you sing a song (but this, one must think, is just an advertisement).

Cota
Perhaps the most exciting promise of recent years is a breadbasket-sized transmitter that can charge phones, smartwatches and bracelets, remotes or gamepads up to 10 meters away. This is more of a wireless technology, freeing you from fussing with the charger. It doesn’t matter if the phone is on the table or in your pocket: as soon as it runs out of power and is within range of the transmitter, it will start charging it. However, the device to be charged must be equipped with a special Cota receiver. The developers promise to start deliveries of these receivers to device manufacturers at the end of the year.

Acer Predator Triton 500 SE review: I expected more
Spending a grip on a gaming laptop isn’t difficult; a cursory search on gaming laptops will net you several options that cost more than $4,000. But finding a laptop that’s giving you the greatest return on your investment is more of a challenge. If you’re spending around $3,000 on a gaming laptop like the Acer Predator Triton 500 SE, you want it to bury the competition, not just scrape by. Unfortunately, the Triton 500 SE is a bit disappointing and doesn’t flex its hardware enough to set it apart in a crowded market.
Housed in its all-silver chassis, the $2,999.99 configuration of the Triton 500 SE we tested includes a 12th Gen Core i9-12900H processor, RTX 3080 Ti graphics card, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB of PCIe NVME storage. This hardware is more than enough to take full advantage of its 16-inch 240Hz 2560 x 1600 display. Acer has less expensive models of the Triton 500 SE available, too; the base model, with an Intel Core i7-12700H CPU, RTX 3070 Ti, and 16GB of RAM, costs $2,099. 99, about as much as a Lenovo Legion 5i Pro with twice the RAM and storage.

The Triton 500 SE has enough ports that it doesn’t need an external dock or a mess of dongles. Along the left side, you’ll find an ethernet port, DC connector, a 3.5mm audio jack, a single USB-A port, and a USB-C / Thunderbolt 4 hookup. The right side features another Thunderbolt port and USB-A port plus an HDMI output and SDXC card reader.
On the right side: an SDXC card reader, USB-A, USB-C / Thunderbolt 4, and HDMI 2.1 ports.
And on the left, DC-IN, ethernet, USB-A, USB-C / Thunderbolt 4, and combo audio jacks.
If you’re sticking to the area around the WASD keys, the keyboard is fine, but trying to get actual work done on the keyboard can be a challenge. The switches have good tactile feedback and a small amount of travel, and they don’t feel mushy, but they’re smaller than average, and the gaps between them make me wish this space were used a little more efficiently. Too often, I missed a key or had to pause what I was doing to search for a function that had been relocated. In a few cases, I hit the key that summons the Acer Predator software instead of the backspace key. I made far fewer errors with the keyboard on the Asus ROG Zephyrus M16 thanks to its slightly larger keys and more familiar layout.
The trackpad is sizable, at roughly 5 x 3 inches, and has a satisfying tactile response with a nice click. It’s accurate and responsive and didn’t randomly register my palms when using it. It’ll get you by if you’re playing Civilization 6, but you’re going to want a dedicated mouse for your Valorant ladder matches. It’s a bit disappointing that the fingerprint sensor takes up part of the upper-left portion of the trackpad. It doesn’t get in the way very often, but I’d rather have a bigger trackpad surface with a fingerprint sensor on another part of the chassis.
At just over five pounds, it might be tempting to call the Triton portable, but the battery life prevents it from going far without an available outlet. The Triton lasts a couple of hours when gaming on battery power, which isn’t spectacular but is slightly more impressive when you consider that it offers roughly the same gaming experience you would get when it’s plugged in. The motherboard is equipped with a multiplexer, or MUX switch, that boosts battery life by dynamically switching between the integrated and dedicated GPUs depending on the task. By leaning on the integrated GPU instead of the RTX 3080 Ti, it managed to get almost three hours of YouTube streaming / working. You can’t expect too much from a laptop this size that uses such a demanding graphics card, but if you need longevity from your gaming laptop, the MSI GS77 Stealth lasts about as long as the Triton but charges you less for the privilege.

The hinge on the display is firm and won’t wobble as long as you use the laptop on a flat surface. However, I would’ve appreciated a material on the lid and chassis that did a better job of resisting fingerprints and other visible markings. One of our big complaints from the previous Triton model has resurfaced: the slim lid has a surprising amount of flex. Just about any amount of pressure causes the display to bow, which isn’t something I want to see in a laptop that costs over $3,000.
The speakers, housed between the hinge and the keyboard, are uncommonly good for a laptop — at least, I didn’t immediately want to reach for the closest pair of headphones. They’re not far enough apart to provide the spatial audio you’d get from a pair of headphones, but they’re competent enough to provide a high and low end that doesn’t sound tinny or washed-out. The Acer software has a few different EQ presets that are intended to provide a better listening experience for different game genres, but “Music” provided the most balanced sound of the bunch.
The hinge produces a noticeable gap between the keyboard and screen.
The 2650 x 1600 IPS display has a 16:10 aspect ratio, and Acer says it can hit 500 nits of brightness. It also supports G-Sync, with a maximum refresh rate of 240Hz. The hardware in the Triton 500 SE is remarkably powerful, but even an RTX 3080 Ti can’t hit 240fps in modern titles. Only Counter-Strike: Global Offensive got close, maintaining around 200fps at max settings and up to 333fps when I dropped the resolution to 1080p. It’s nice to have a screen with plenty of overhead, but the fact that it has adaptive sync is more important to most people than the refresh rate.
The lid doesn’t have much wobble but can flex under too much pressure.
It wasn’t easy to challenge the Triton 500 SE with our current benchmarks. The Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti in our review unit is the current top-of-the-line gaming GPU, and it’s powerful — it hit around 60fps or better at native resolution with ultra settings and ultra ray tracing in almost every game we tested it with.
In our Shadow of the Tomb Raider benchmark with ultra presets, ray tracing enabled, and DLSS off, it averaged 79fps. The $4,000 Razer Blade 17, another RTX 3080 Ti laptop with a 2560 x 1600 screen, got 70fps at the same settings, while the $2,800 MSI GS77 Stealth, with an RTX 3070 Ti, only managed 58fps.
The Triton 500 SE also hit 67fps in Red Dead Redemption 2 at ultra settings with DLSS off, compared to 72fps for the Razer Blade 17 and 59 for the GS77 Stealth.
In the more demanding Cyberpunk 2077, the Predator Triton 500 SE hit 61fps at ultra settings with ray tracing set to ultra and 48fps with ray tracing set to “psycho,” both with DLSS off. Even games like Doom Eternal put out a relatively steady 60fps with ultra presets and ray tracing enabled and hit a consistent 120fps when using DLSS performance mode.
Like the other laptops we’ve tested with RTX 3080 Ti GPUs, it blazed through our video export test, managing to complete the run in two minutes and 20 seconds.
The Predator logo is the only branding on the Triton.
All of the benchmarks were performed while using the highest performance presets available through the Acer control software, which yielded excellent results, but I did most of my gaming in the aptly named “whisper mode,” which thankfully lives up to its name. I’m not sure you’d be able to market the Triton 500 SE without this feature, as the fans can be loud enough to be distracting if the system is under even a modest level of strain. This mode has the fans operating at their minimum, so some throttling would be expected here, but in testing, the 500SE still managed to provide solid performance when placed under these constraints. Playing Doom Eternal with the same settings, for instance, didn’t change much, still managing up to 120fps when using DLSS performance mode. However, the Shadow of the Tomb Raider benchmark took some pretty serious hits, managing an average of just 50fps using the same settings.
Switching between performance profiles is done through the Acer control software, which is simple and unobtrusive. You can summon this software via the desktop or by using its own dedicated macro key. The software lets you adjust fan speeds, performance profiles, and RGB lighting. But unlike some other gaming laptops, like the Asus ROG Zephyrus series, you can only change the performance profile while the laptop is plugged into an outlet. Even while at a nearly full charge, I found that unplugging the laptop causes the hardware profile to revert to its default balanced power state.
Agree to Continue: Acer Predator Triton 500 SE
Every smart device now requires you to agree to a series of terms and conditions before you can use it — contracts that no one actually reads. It’s impossible for us to read and analyze every single one of these agreements. But we started counting exactly how many times you have to hit “agree” to use devices when we review them since these are agreements most people don’t read and definitely can’t negotiate.
As with other Windows 10 computers, the Acer Predator Triton 500 SE presents you with multiple things to agree to or decline upon setup.
The mandatory policies, for which an agreement is required, are:
- A request for your region and keyboard layout
- Windows 10 License Agreement
- A Microsoft account for sign-in
- A PIN
In addition, there are several optional things to agree to:
- Connect to Wi-Fi network
- Set up fingerprint sensor authentication
- Device privacy settings: online speech recognition, Find My Device, Inking and Typing, Advertising ID, Location, Diagnostic data, Tailored experiences
- Send Microsoft your activity history to sync your activity across Windows devices
- Connect your Android phone for My Phone services
- Opt to save files via OneDrive
- Sign up for Microsoft 365
- Allow Microsoft to access your location, location history, contacts, voice input, speech and handwriting patterns, typing history, search history, calendar details, messages, apps, and Edge browsing history to help Cortana provide personalized experiences and relevant suggestions
- Provide your name, region, and email address for Acer support and protection
That’s five mandatory agreements and 15 optional ones.
The Predator Triton 500 SE is in a tough spot. On one hand, it’s the least expensive gaming laptop we’ve tested with specs like these. Of the RTX 3080 Ti models we’ve tested, the Razer Blade 17 has better build quality but a less powerful CPU and costs $1,000 more. The MSI GE76 Raider costs more and has a lower-resolution screen. But the Gigabyte Aero 16, which cost $5,000 when we reviewed it, is now only a few hundred bucks more than the Triton 500 SE. It’s hot and loud and has bad battery life, too, but it also has a 4K AMOLED screen.
The RTX 3080 Ti is Nvidia’s current top-of-the-line mobile graphics card (for now, at least), and 2560 x 1600 seems like the right resolution for it right now. You’ll have to drop ray tracing and quality settings to hit 60fps on a 4K display, and 1080p is just too low-resolution for a 16-inch screen. Springing for a 3080 Ti instead of a 3070 Ti means you’ll have playable frame rates for longer, which means you’ll get more life out of your laptop before you have to upgrade.
On the other hand, the fans on my test unit were so loud that I spent most of my gaming time in quiet mode and got lower frame rates than a 3070 Ti. So why spend the extra money unless you have really good noise-canceling headphones?
With a 3080Ti under the hood, the Triton 500 SE needs some seriously loud fans to compensate.
That’s the RTX 3080 Ti. But the sweet spot GPU in Nvidia’s lineup right now is the RTX 3070 Ti, which can still hit close to 60fps at ultra settings in many games, though usually not with ray tracing all the way up. And it costs a lot less. The Triton 500 SE has a $2,099.99 model with a Core i7-12700H CPU, RTX 3070 TI, 16GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage. That’s much more compelling, especially because you can easily upgrade the RAM. We haven’t reviewed that model, but unless its performance is wildly different from laptops with similar specs we’ve tested, you’ll still get most of the performance of the $3,000 model for around $800 less.
But for the same price or even less, you can get a Lenovo Legion 5i Pro on sale with the same CPU, GPU, and RAM, virtually the same port selection, and a similar 2560 x 1600 G-Sync panel. (Though it tops out at 165Hz instead of 240Hz.) In his review, my colleague Cam Faulkner found that the Legion 5i Pro had better build quality and quieter fans than the Triton 500 SE I tested. Even if you can’t get the exact same RAM and SSD configuration, both of those are easily user upgradeable, unlike build quality and fan noise.
The Acer Predator Triton 500 SE isn’t a bad gaming laptop, and the RTX 3080 Ti model I tested has powerful hardware for the price. But it’s still not worth the price premium, especially with how loud the fans are, especially with new graphics cards coming soon, and especially when the RTX 3070 Ti laptops get you 80 percent of the performance for almost $1,000 less. However, with Nvidia’s new 40-series GPUs on the horizon, the pricing for many gaming laptops equipped with 30-series GPUs may cool down significantly.
Acer Predator Triton 500 SE (2022) Review: Blazing Speed, Scalding Chassis
$3,000 at Amazon
Don’t like
- Runs incredibly hot
- Touchpad feels cheap
The Acer Predator Triton 500 SE is not a budget gaming laptop by any stretch. It starts at $2,100, but the top-end configuration reviewed here is a little under $3,000. While this is cheaper than just about any competitors with its specs, this isn’t an entry-level machine. It’s for a gamer who wants the raw power of a desktop machine with the portability a laptop provides. And, as someone who’s a desktop PC gamer, I’ve been amazed at how well it does in some areas and shocked by how bad it is in others.
While the outside of the 500 SE is rather plain, when you open the lid you are welcomed by a beautiful backlit RGB keyboard. The keys are well-spaced and typing on them is surprisingly nice. I spent a couple of days using it as my work computer and I wasn’t disappointed by the experience. The keys also feel soft and offer great travel, and the keyboard doesn’t feel rubbery as some do after a while. Acer even added dedicated media controls and a PredatorSense button that brings up the overclocking system whenever you need it. And the additions don’t make the keyboard feel cramped, which can often happen when you shoehorn in extra keys.

One of my biggest bugbears when it comes to gaming laptops over the years is the touchpad. While the 500 SE has a glass-topped touchpad that feels smooth under your hands, the functionality is just not there. The pad itself works fine if you tap the top, but pressing it feels cheap and awkward. It pushes down too far and often doesn’t register the click when I do press it. In the end, I stopped using it and used my Razer Naga Pro gaming mouse instead. The only positive with the touchpad is the built-in fingerprint reader, which makes it easy to log in to your laptop securely using Windows Hello.
The PredatorSense key was helpful while I tracked heat buildup.

The display is something of a joy, though. The 2,560×1,600-resolution display is 16:10 rather than 16:9, which I appreciate. I know it isn’t a massive difference, but the taller screen lets it fit in the bottom bar without sacrificing gaming real estate, so it’s a welcome shift. Visuals are crisp and clean, as you would expect from a 240Hz panel with a max brightness of 500 nits. I found the brightness on this screen held up in most lighting conditions short of direct sunlight.
When it comes to gaming performance, the Triton 500 SE is pretty much the cream of the crop in this price range. It’s worth mentioning that the 500 SE has more memory and a better processor than the rest of the machines tested in our benchmarks, but the cost is equal to or lower than other offerings in this space. For example, we recently reviewed the Razer Blade 15, and while it’s more expensive it failed to beat the 500 SE in any of our tests. This makes the 500 SE something of a bargain for a high-end gaming laptop, even at $3,000. (The 2022 Triton 500 SE isn’t currently available in the UK or Australia, but the price of my review laptop converts to roughly £2,525 or AU$4,450.)
All of the games I played, from first-person shooters like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Destiny 2 to strategy games like Civilization 6, worked beautifully. Graphically they looked fantastic of course — with an Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti graphics card you would expect nothing less — but even on high or ultra settings I experienced no lag or slowdown, even when the screen was filled with enemies and particle effects. Clearly, the 500 SE was born to play games and it does it with the ease and skill you would expect from a powerhouse like this.
Playing Sea of Thieves as rendered by the 3080 GPU was a pleasure.
James Bricknell/CNET
Playing games on battery power is a different experience, though. As you can see from our battery drain test, the 500 SE isn’t the best or worst, though the battery will drain much faster when gaming. That’s normal and I managed to get around 1 hour, 10 minutes, before the battery dropped to 10% and I was forced to plug it back in. The Acer uses MUX switching technology to swap between the power-hungry RTX 3080 GPU and the more energy-efficient integrated graphics. It works great if you’re not looking to play graphics-intensive games on battery power, but the moment you switch to using only the 3080 your gaming minutes are numbered.
These numbers are a little too high to want to keep this sitting in my lap.
James Bricknell/CNET
Whether you’ve got it on battery or running off its power brick, one thing is certain: The 500 SE has a heating problem. While Acer speaks of its “fifth-generation AeroBlade 3D fans” and “liquid metal thermal grease” I’ve never used a laptop that runs this hot. After three hours of playing Civilization 6, the system temperature reached 82 Celsius or a whopping 180 degrees Fahrenheit — enough to make a decent cup of green tea.
The entire laptop got so hot that using the touchpad made my wrist uncomfortable to the point of pain. I dread to think what it would be like with the lid closed and attached to a monitor. If you’re going to play games on this for long sessions you will want to keep it on a desk and as cool as possible. Certainly don’t play for long sessions with the laptop in your actual lap. That will get uncomfortable very quickly.
A warning label is never a good sign.
James Bricknell/CNET
Heating issues aside, I’ve really enjoyed my time with the Acer Predator Triton 500 SE gaming laptop (though I think that name is ridiculous). If I’m going to spend $3,000 on a laptop I want it to run anything I can throw at it with equal ease and the 500 SE can do just that. In addition to gaming, I used the laptop for photo editing and rendering 3D models that I’ve designed and it easily handled both tasks, often simultaneously, something that even my custom-designed PC struggles to do.
Gaming on the 500 SE was an excellent experience (apart from the excessive heat and the touchpad, of course). I was pleasantly surprised by how crisp the screen was, and even when I hooked it up to my old 70Hz monitor everything ran smooth as butter. While the battery life is pretty poor when using the discrete graphics card, having the option to switch between it and the onboard graphics on the fly is a huge bonus. It means you can use your laptop for browsing and streaming and get relatively good battery life, then plug it in when you’re ready for a big gaming session. Just keep it on the table or you might burn your biscuits.

summary
Acer Predator Triton 500 SE
The 2022 Triton 500 SE is a 2021 generation hardware update with a few other minor upgrades. Combined with a solid build and excellent input and display options, this can be a competent all-in-one laptop, whether for gaming or everyday use, or for video or imaging work that requires good processing power to complete complex tasks.

Processador
It’s no surprise that this flagship laptop is a performance leader. When it comes to laptop processing power, the Acer Predator Triton 500 SE is second to none with its processor options. Insane test scores carry over into the real world when you play games, edit videos and photos, or render 3D videos. Heavy games with thousands of elements on the screen, such as a strategy game (Total Warhammer, World of Warcraft) will use all this processing power and complete tasks much faster, and games will be lag-free and lag-free.
Performance and screen
The Triton 500 SE is equipped with Nvidia’s flagship mobile graphics, so it’s no surprise that frames fly across the screen. If you’re more interested in eSports, FPS or other games where high refresh rates are important, you can take advantage of the Triton 240 SE’s 500Hz display to enjoy full 1080p graphics and see everything that’s happening in real time. Colors don’t disappoint either, providing a display with vibrant and vibrant tones for those who need precision when editing videos, photos, or simply enjoying the increasingly realistic and beautiful scenery of modern gaming.
This is a display that puts gaming performance first. It doesn’t have the incredible contrast ratio of an OLED screen, but its 520 nits brightness and 100% DCI-P3 color gamut make it one of the best screens we’ve seen in a gaming laptop. (Most gaming laptops suffer from dim screens and muddy colors covering about 60% of the P3 gamut.)
The 1600p screen is very smooth with a 240Hz refresh rate and is easy on the eyes during long gaming sessions. Games look great with vibrant colors and bright whites. While its relatively low contrast ratio isn’t suitable for serious film or photo editing, the screen is good enough for rough layouts or retouching for color-sensitive work.
Starter Predator Triton 500 SE
Construction and battery
While some laptops may struggle to find a compromise between thin chassis and providing ample space for components, Acer has managed to strike a balance with its Triton 500 SE. The metallic gray finish of its all-metal body is beautiful and fingerprint-resistant. Its slim profile also makes it easy to fit in a bag. The Predator logo is tucked away in a corner so as not to draw too much attention in a crowded room. Even the speaker grill looks cool, with a wavy pattern that’s nice to look at.
The trackpad is also fantastic. It’s as sleek as a MacBook trackpad, and it’s gigantic. Acceleration and speed feel perfect. The fingerprint scanner is hidden in the upper left corner. Meanwhile, the keyboard is made up of thin, quiet keys that respond quickly when pressed. There is nothing exceptional about this, but there is nothing that could be repulsive either.
The Triton 500 SE’s five hours and 38 minutes of battery life is pretty impressive for a gaming laptop with this kind of processing power and screen, but it’s certainly not the most impressive when we look at gaming laptops. recently. At least it’s better than the Predator Triton 300’s two and a half hour battery life.
This battery and metal chassis will make the product get a little warm, which will make the fans work hard, which may cause noise. Combined with the average sound of the product (details below), this can be a problem for those looking for a quieter product or not using headphones while gaming. It is also important to keep the laptop on a suitable desk and in a ventilated area.
Audio
The sound on this laptop isn’t the worst sound you’ll ever hear, but it’s not impressive, especially given the high price of the laptop. The sound is quiet even at maximum volume and is devoid of bass, which gives a feeling of emptiness. On the plus side, mids and highs are crisp, and voices are emphasized in the sound. Players should use headsets or headphones for better spatial awareness and subtle audio cues, but the audio is fine for casual movie watching when you’re bored.
Predator Triton 500 SE
Where to buy?
At the moment, you can buy Triton 500 SE only on international sites, since even the official Acer store is not available with a price in real. It might be interesting to wait a bit and throw in some cash for more accessories and peripherals, and put together a gaming setup. On the other hand, if you want Acer Predator laptops, we have many great options at special prices on Amazon.

Are Nintendo Switch games that expensive, or how I spent 24,000 ₽ on games instead of 60,000 ₽ in December — Nintendo on DTF
There is nothing easier than getting to the bottom of Nintendo’s pricing policy, just look at the cost of games in the eShope. From here, the hooves of typical horns grow a la: “I would like to buy haze for 8k right now!” (this is a real comment).

The film, by the way, is excellent
Before I bought the Nintendo Switch, I too, like a blind kitten, roamed the field with stereotypical rakes, stepped on them and meowed to myself about expensive games. But the desire to play Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey overcame the reluctance to pay 5000 ₽ for the game. So I got the Switch.
And suddenly it turned out that the talk about high prices was exaggerated. Yes, eShop prices remain around 5k, but there are ways to save money.
I’ll divide the article into two developments:
- It’s mindless to go for games in eShop.
- Turn on Scrooge and look for games outside the eShop.
Disclaimer #1
This is probably too obvious an article, because everyone already knows that things can be taken cheaper than the original price. But it is surprising that in the era of access to any information, we often continue to hit the wall without understanding the issue.
Therefore, I hope that this article and my own experience will help to dispel a little the fog of war about the prices of games from Nintendo.
Option #1: go for eShop games
Let’s say I bought all the games at full price. I specially made screenshots of those games that I now have on cartridges.
Ring Fit is not sold in eShop, so I chose the cheapest option on Yandex Market
As a result, I spent:
We do not look at discounts for Boxing, Yoshi and Golf, but we calculate at the full price:
4999 + 4999 + 4999 + 4999 + 4999 + 4999 + 4999 + 4499 + 49 99 + 4149 + 5799 + 4999 = 59 438 ₽.
Is it expensive for 12 games? Blaine, of course. I’M BETTER TO TAKE HeBox FOR THIS MONEY!
59 438 ₽
Worth 12 Nintendo Switch exclusives if you buy digital copies from Eshop at full price
What will the nintendo haters think of this
I see Zelda for 5799, round up to 6000, add another thousand for effect and the indignation is ready: “Who needs this owl with five-year-old games for 7k!”
Option #2: Look for games outside the eShop
How it happens in reality, for example, for me (yes, for any adequate person). I go fishing for discounts. I fish for a month, and here is the catch:
In M-video I take Mario Party Superstars on sale + 1500 points are written off. And before the New Year, I take 2 more games for the New Year’s sale.
I take 3 cartridges in Eldorado for 3997 ₽ – 700 points, total for 3297 ₽
And these are 5 deals on Avito and a catch of 6 exclusives
As a result, I spent:
1995 + 1599 + 1599 + 1499 + 999 + 1499 + 1642 + 5404 + 2362 + 1894 + 4048 – 700 = 23 840 ₽
23 840 ₽
Paid for 12 games including the purchase of used cartridges for Avito and discounts in stores
What will nintendo haters think of this:
EVERYTHING is expensive! I bought one haze FOR CHILDREN, AND ON A PIECE OF PAST GENERATION PLASTIC!
Final account
Awesome, but it turns out that it is not necessary to run to the digital eShop for games for 4999₽!
- eShop: 59 438 ₽
- Outside eShop: 23 840 ₽
- I saved: 35 598 ₽
And in general, games are sold cheaper in stores than in eShop, even without sales discounts.
Each exclusive costs at least 1000 ₽ cheaper than in eShop
Cartridges can be resold
I have already made sure that games for Nintendo are sold on Avito at a favorable price for me (for us). But I’ll try to sell the cartridge myself.
Wrote an advertisement for the sale of Mario Party Superstars, set the price at 2500₽. The results are in the screenshot, there are buyers. On the same day, I removed the ad, because due to a sudden business trip, I lost access to the Russian Post.
Two people wrote a negative review because I did not sell them a cartridge
So it turns out that in the future I can still return some of the money if I want to. Even selling each cartridge for 2000 ₽, I will go to zero.
Compare prices for 3 games for different platforms
And the last moment is the most unexplored for me. Many players complain that the same games for different platforms cost differently, and the prices for Switch are always the highest.
I have a list of games in my wishlist that I’m waiting for at a discount. Compared prices:
- Xbox: 3000 ₽
- PS5: 2639 ₽
- Xbox: 1500 ₽
- PS5: 1429 ₽
- Steam: 411 ₽
- PS5 – 2149 ₽
- Xbox – 2263 ₽
- Steam – 1749₽
Nintendo games are still expensive!
Yes, it is, but not always.
Disclaimer #2
While writing this post, I realized that the main idea is that you can always find a game cheaper than it costs.
But that doesn’t mean you have to always wait for discounts, because there are games you want to play right now. This means that you will have to pay 8k for a conditional GTA 3-in-1 platinum unit mega ultra gold mod. That’s life!
P.S. Damn, I have so many questions. But very interesting, how do you feel about the prices of games? Are you ready to overpay for a cool game, or for the opportunity to play right away, and not in six months, but cheaper? Do you think that Ninka games are expensive? Has it often happened that you pay 5000 ₽ for a game, but it turns out to be the bottom?
For example, I haven’t paid more than 2500 ₽ for a game yet, I just haven’t come across such masterpieces yet. But at the same time, I am sure that a good game can cost 5000 rubles or more.
Invested in 12 games 😉
Nintendo to update Switch
game console in 2021
Nintendo console sales are on the rise: Between March 2017 (when Switch was launched) and end of June 2020, Nintendo sold 61 million Switch consoles / Tom Jacobs / Reuters
The Japanese company Nintendo plans to introduce an improved model of the Switch game console in 2021, accompanied by a series of new games, sources familiar with the situation told Bloomberg. The full set of technical specifications of the new console is not yet known, however, according to sources, the novelty will have higher power and graphics with 4K resolution. Nintendo, which has never released upgrades to the Switch console before, is trying in this way to keep gamers on its platform in the face of fierce competition: in November this year, just in time for the start of the Christmas season, new items are released – the PlayStation 5 from the Japanese manufacturer Sony and the Xbox Series X from American company Microsoft.
While Nintendo won’t be able to compete for a spot under the tree this year with its Switch, the company is doing well. “The Expendables” (as Bloomberg called them) Nintendo’s share price has risen 70% since March 2020 to over 56,000 Japanese yen ($525), one of the best performances among blue-chip companies in Japan. Analysts expect further growth of the company’s shares to $635.
On August 24, a record growth of 4.8% was recorded for this period. This added $3 billion to the company, which now stands at $61.5 billion. According to Eiji Kinuchi, an analyst at the Japanese investment bank Daiwa Securities, American small investors made a certain contribution to the growth of quotes, namely the audience of Robinhood, a brokerage application that allows everyone to trade assets on exchange without commission. Nintendo is the second most popular Japanese company among Robinhood users (13 million people) after Sony (SoftBank is in third place). However, the latter two companies have ties to China, so in the face of the US-China trade war, potential shareholders have begun to choose Nintendo more and more, Kinuchi said.
70%
was the increase in Nintendo’s stock price since March 2020.
Sales of Nintendo consoles are also on the rise. Between March 2017 (when the Switch was released) and the end of June 2020, Nintendo sold 61 million Switch consoles, including the lower-priced Switch Lite version released in 2019. The company’s goal for Switch sales this fiscal year is to 19 million. Of this amount, more than 5.5 million have already been sold between April and June 2020 (First Quarter of the company’s financial year). Nintendo’s quarterly operating income was $1.4 billion, the highest in the company’s history. Operating profit of the company in 2019up 40% from 2018 to $2.3 billion
Analysts say sales of the updated Switch could outsell previous Nintendo consoles – Wii (102 million) and DS (154 million) – and make this line of consoles the most commercially successful company in history. “The Switch will beat the Wii even without an upgrade, and with it the console could well outperform the Nintendo DS,” says Ace Research Institute analyst Hideki Yasuda.
The reason for the popularity of consoles was the COVID-19 pandemic. In conditions of home confinement, people were more actively buying gaming devices. In the US, for example, sales of game consoles in the first half of 2020 grew by 25% compared to the same period in 2019 to $1. 6 billion. Not only did the Nintendo Switch sell, but so did its competitors, the PlayStation and Xbox. PlayStation sales in April-June 2020 increased by 31% to $5.65 billion. Xbox sales grew by 49% over the same period (Microsoft does not disclose the absolute figure). Although the most popular console in the history of sales is still the PlayStation 2 (157 million) and last year Nintendo still lagged behind competitors in terms of sales, as early as June 2020, Nintendo occupied 52% of the market (in terms of the number of units sold). PlayStation accounted for 36% and Xbox for 12%.
The popularity of the Switch (and the success of Nintendo in general) is largely due to the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons in March 2020. The island life simulation video game was a real hit, with 12 million 10.6 million – for the last quarter. New Horizons outsold all previous Animal Crossing titles, becoming the top-selling game in March 2020 in North America, and the company’s third-best-selling game for Nintendo and the second-best-selling game on the Nintendo Switch.

Wireless headphones for TV
Wireless headphones for TV – how to choose, connect and use?
A device with which you can watch your favorite movie, even if it’s late or the child is doing homework – these are wireless headphones for TV. There are many varieties of such devices, so before making your choice, you need to consider them all.
Can I connect wireless headphones to my TV?
Such a gadget as wireless headphones for TV appeared recently, until that time people used ordinary wired headphones, which limited movement and did not allow moving away from the screen. With wireless headphones, the user has the option to move away from the screen if the signal distance is respected. You can connect wireless headphones to your TV in different ways, depending on what technology the manufacturer used.
How do wireless TV headphones work?
The ways in which wireless headphones for TV receive sound signals are different:
- radio channel in the VHF band – provides a stable, reliable connection;
- IR connection – via high ripple line-of-sight signal;
- Wi-Fi – works in the router zone, has good coverage and a stable signal;
- Bluetooth – provides connection to the TV and other equipment, works at a distance of up to 10 m.
Wireless TV headphones for the hearing impaired
Such a modern device as wireless TV headphones for the hearing impaired allows people with hearing problems to watch TV shows and movies without any problems. Ordinary television sound can be reflected, distorted or attenuated, and for a hearing impaired person this becomes a serious hindrance. Turning the sound on to the maximum in urban conditions is also often not an option. Wireless headphones help solve these problems, and a hearing-impaired person can listen to TV from almost anywhere in the apartment.
What are wireless TV headphones?
Before answering the question of which wireless headphones are best for TV, you should find out what they are:
- compact in-ear – very small, but not always comfortable for many hours of use;
- on-ear – headphones with headband, lightweight and comfortable;
- full size – covers the entire ear, but may be too heavy.
Bluetooth headphones for TV
The most common and cheapest option is wireless headphones for TV with a Bluetooth adapter. This option is popular with many users. Not all TVs support Bluetooth, so you need a special adapter to connect headphones. The convenience of such wireless headphones is that they can be connected to any device that supports Bluetooth – a tablet, smartphone, computer.
TV radio headphones
Using a TV with wireless headphones operating in the radio band is very convenient – the gadget provides excellent sound quality and a significant reception range, which is not available to other varieties. Most modern televisions are already equipped with the blocks necessary to transmit the radio signal to the headphones. Experts call the only drawback of radio headphones a weak resistance to interference that may appear due to the operation of devices or equipment that uses a radio signal.
Infrared TV headphones
Not only remote controls can be operated via infrared. To successfully use infrared wireless headphones, you need to connect the IR block, which is included with the device, to the TV. Using them to watch TV, you can not go far – any obstacle immediately degrades the signal.
Wi-Fi headphones for TV
Modern wireless headphones for smart TV work using Wi-Fi connection. If the TV is not equipped with a special unit for receiving and transmitting Wi-Fi signals, it must be purchased separately. Wi-Fi headphones provide good signal range, wide range, excellent sound quality, convenience and ease of use. The only drawback is the small selection of Wi-Fi headphones for the TV.
How to choose wireless headphones for TV?
In addition to the way information is transmitted, wireless headphones have other criteria that you should pay attention to when buying. How to choose wireless headphones for a TV – technical parameters:
- frequency and frequency range – these criteria are important if the user is going to listen to music and the sound quality is important to him;
- impedance – this parameter shows the signal impedance at the input, which directly affects the headphone volume;
- sensitivity – the sound depth depends on this parameter, the higher the sensitivity, the better;
- THD – demonstrates possible sound distortion, the lower the THD, the better.
Wireless TV headphones performance:
- Comfort – The headphones should be tried on to evaluate how comfortable they are to move, sit, lie down.
- Power supply – headphones can be powered by batteries or rechargeable batteries, the second type of accessory is more expensive, but more economical.
- Weight – too heavy device will be uncomfortable in long-term use, headphones are lighter with batteries than with batteries.
- Range – a criterion that determines how far you can move in headphones from the TV.
- Noise Cancellation – This feature enhances sound quality by blocking out background noise.
- The volume control is a handy option that allows you to decrease or increase the volume without the TV remote control.
- Ability to control headphones from a mobile device, listen to the radio, switch to a wired connection. These comfort-enhancing features are found on higher-priced wireless earbuds.
Disadvantages of wireless headphones:
- Obstacles and other equipment can interfere with high-quality signal reception;
- batteries can run out at the wrong time;
- due to batteries and accumulators, the headphones may be too heavy and large;
- the price of such headphones is higher than wired ones.
TOP wireless headphones for TV
Many people are afraid to buy wireless headphones for fear that they need to be recharged very often or they will break quickly. The TOP of the best wireless headphones for TV includes only cool models that have proven their durability and comfort:
- Sony MDR-RF865RK – wireless headphones for TV with 3-channel transmitter, use radio signal for reception, battery life – more than 24 hours, very long range – 100 m.
- Sennheiser RS 175 – excellent wireless headphones for TV use a radio signal, are distinguished by power and high sensitivity, this model is also appreciated for its durability.

- IR headphones : Install the IR transmitter on the TV and on the headphone housing, select the IR audio output and turn on the speakers.
Doorbell video: The 5 Best Smart Doorbell Cameras of 2023
Best Video Doorbell Cameras of 2023
Which is the best video doorbell camera?
The Arlo Video Doorbell comes with added features you won’t get with other devices, such as night vision and a wide, 180-degree field of view.
Arlo
The Arlo Video Doorbell is our pick for the overall best video doorbell camera. It has a wide field of view (180 degrees), built-in siren and night vision. This camera will meet and exceed expectations for most households, making it stand above the competition.
As shown by Arlo’s model, not all video doorbell cameras are created equal — design, installation cost, video quality and video storage subscriptions for each doorbell cam can vary immensely. Some also have features that may give you pause on ethical grounds.
If you aren’t sure where to begin in your search for a smart video doorbell, take a look below, where we’ve rounded up our favorite models. We’ve also offered a few general pointers on finding the best security camera device for you. If you’re looking for the best doorbell camera, chances are it’s among those we’ve tested. We update this list periodically.
Best doorbell cameras of 2023
How we test video doorbells
Testing to determine the best video doorbell is similar to testing any other home security camera.
Installation and setup process
First, a reviewer will download the corresponding app and create an account. While a lot of products include tutorial booklets in the box with your purchase, a good app includes detailed steps on the installation process, as well as how to connect to your Wi-Fi network and actually get the smart device up and running. It’s your one-stop shop for taking your doorbell setup from start to finish.
We make sure the doorbell is installed based on the manufacturer’s specifications — either a hardwired doorbell, or a battery- or solar-powered one.
Here are two wireless video doorbells, Wyze and Blink, that we installed to the CNET Smart Home for testing.
Chris Monroe/CNET
Additional features and settings
As soon as it’s connected and we’re able to view the live video feed, we check the settings. We make sure features like motion detection, two-way or activity zones are enabled (they aren’t always turned on by default) to get a complete sense of what it’s like to use the product — and to see how well the device actually works as a replacement to a regular, nonsmart doorbell.
To test motion zones, we first determine the motion zone, then move around it to see when we get an alert and when we don’t. The aim is to discover how precise those zones really are. For two-way talk, we’ll have a conversation with a partner on the porch via the doorbell to listen for clarity and latency.
While testing, we always check how seamlessly the video doorbell camera integrates with third-party smart home voice assistants, like Alexa, as well as how usable the brand’s app is for installation and monitoring.
Chris Monroe/CNET
App integration
Like smart locks and home security cameras, many top-notch video doorbells will allow the camera to be integrated with voice assistants like Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. We download the respective apps, connect the video doorbell and see the ease (or hassle) of using voice commands to control the doorbell camera, plus how easily the doorbell cam integrates into the wider ecosystem of smart devices.
If you want to read more about our review process, check out our in-depth article on how we test home security cameras and video doorbells.

What to consider before buying a doorbell camera
Does it work with smart home platforms? If so, do the smart features work well together? Nowadays a smart home device is expected to work with at least one major smart home platform. Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple HomeKit are the main ones you need to look for.
How’s the latency? If your smart doorbell camera takes a long time to send a push notification after someone rings your doorbell, then you risk missing your visitor completely. You also need to be sure you’re getting notifications when something sets off the motion detector, as you can set the motion sensor of most video doorbells to notify you of activity happening near your door, even if no one rings the buzzer. If you have latency problems, start with your Wi-Fi connection. If it isn’t strong where the doorbell is installed, you might consider moving it (or, more easily, getting a Wi-Fi range extender). But it could also be the way the software works.
How’s the live view? Doorbells are often exposed to direct sunlight, but many others are installed under porches, near shady trees and in all sorts of other settings. It’s important that the camera has night vision and can handle any of these scenarios so you don’t get stuck with a nonfunctioning product that can’t see faces under a porch.
How’s the two-way audio? If the doorbell’s microphone and speaker don’t work well, you’re going to have a tough time communicating with whoever’s there. We tested this out multiple times to see how the doorbell’s audio sounds over my phone.

Arlo Video Doorbell review: Arlo ousted Nest as my favorite video doorbell
2020
Arlo made us wait a long time for its first video doorbell, but I’m happy to say it was worth it. The Netgear spinoff Arlo has essentially transformed its excellent Arlo Pro series of outdoor security cameras into a doorbell — a great doorbell — for just $150.
When you consider that the Nest Hello clocks in at $229, Arlo’s $150 Video Doorbell starts to sound like a pretty good value. While many of Arlo’s own cameras are expensive, if not overpriced, the company has made significant strides in the past year to introduce more affordable options, including the Arlo Video Doorbell.
It’s priced well, it performs well and the Arlo Smart cloud service is competitively priced, starting at $3 per month. With Arlo Smart, you get a ton of features, from advanced motion alerts to 30 days of cloud storage and much more.
Yes, I wish this buzzer had free cloud storage and that the doorbell itself was smaller (it looks nice, but it’s over 5 inches tall — even bigger than the Nest Hello). But I strongly recommend the Arlo Video Doorbell, enough to give it an Editors’ Choice Award and enough to say that it’s my current favorite video doorbell.
Finally, an Arlo doorbell with live streaming
This is Arlo’s first video doorbell, but it isn’t the brand’s first doorbell. I reviewed the $80 Arlo Audio Doorbell back in April 2019 and was… confused. As the name suggests, the Arlo Audio Doorbell doesn’t have any video capabilities. Instead, you’re supposed to use it with an Arlo Pro series camera.
The Audio Doorbell had two-way talk, but a nearby Pro camera was supposed to provide the live video stream. Since then, I’ve been waiting for Arlo to introduce a video doorbell — a device that didn’t require a Pro camera to perform the functions of a regular smart buzzer.
Now, Arlo has delivered with the hardwired Video Doorbell.
Follow the step-by-step guide to install your doorbell. As always, consult a professional electrician if you have any questions.
Screenshots by Megan Wollerton/CNET
The Arlo app lays out the Video Doorbell setup process from the beginning, making it easy to install the doorbell and to complete the initial configuration.
Start by downloading the Arlo app and creating an account, if you don’t already have one. Follow the steps in the app, from turning off power at your circuit breaker to installing the Power Kit (an adapter that connects to your doorbell chime to regulate the power going to your Arlo Video Doorbell) — and installing the Arlo Video Doorbell itself. Unlike some of Arlo’s cameras, the doorbell connects to your wireless network directly, no expensive hub needed. It will also work with either a mechanical or a digital doorbell chime.
Be sure to consult an electrician if you have any questions about your particular home set up, but it only took about 20 minutes from start to finish to install the Power Kit and the Arlo Video Doorbell at the CNET Smart Home.
The Arlo Video Doorbell is a bit oversized (pictured next to the Google Nest Hello).
Tyler Lizenby/CNET
The Arlo Video Doorbell has a decent design, but I do wish it was a little smaller. At over 5 inches in height, it dwarfs most of the other smart doorbells I’ve tested, including the Nest Hello. Still, it looks nice — just think about the spot where you plan to install your doorbell and whether it will fit.
Using the Arlo Video Doorbell in the app is easy too. Like the Arlo Pro and Essential security cameras, you can arm or disarm the Arlo Video Doorbell, not unlike a traditional security system. When it’s armed, motion detection and video recording is active. When it’s disarmed, you won’t receive alerts.
You can also set an automated schedule when you want your doorbell to be armed or disarmed — or even set it to work within your own geofencing range, which controls the doorbell’s mode based on the location of your phone. When you’re home, it disarms the system and when you’re away, it arms the system. You can set the radius to small, medium or large, although the app doesn’t specify the size of each range. I used large and it successfully armed and disarmed the doorbell for me as I arrived and left the CNET Smart Home.
Without the Arlo Smart subscription plan, starting at $3 per month (read more here), you can’t do much in the app. You get alerts when the system is armed and motion is detected, but you won’t get saved clips of any of the other advanced features Arlo offers.
When your system is armed — and you have an Arlo Smart subscription — you’ll get custom alerts that tell you whether the motion was a person, a car, an animal or a package being delivered. 99% of my alerts were from people walking in and out of the front door — and the doorbell correctly identified them every time as person alerts. One alert I received was a generic motion alert from a bird that flew very close to the doorbell — it should’ve been an animal alert, but I’ll give it a pass on this one given how close the bird was to the doorbell itself.
You can activate the doorbell’s built-in siren on demand — and the doorbell’s 1:1 aspect ratio (bottom image) makes it possible to see more of your front stoop.
Screenshots by Megan Wollerton/CNET
If you want to customize the area where you get alerts, you can set up a motion detection zone. This enables you to draw a “zone” where you want motion to be detected; the doorbell will then ignore motion that happens outside of that zone.
The doorbell also has a built-in siren — and an option in the app to “Activate Siren” if you see something fishy going on at your home. You can also call a friend or use the E911 service to dispatch local law enforcement to your home if needed.
I particularly like this doorbell’s square aspect ratio, making it possible for me to see the front stoop where packages get delivered. Some doorbells display live feeds and recorded clips in a more traditional landscape mode, leaving out critical areas that you want to track.
The verdict
For $150, you get a solid hardwired doorbell that, yes, is a bit oversized, but works extremely well. It has a lot of advanced features, and its essential features — like livestreaming, motion alerts, two-way audio and cloud storage — also work as expected.
The square aspect ratio is one of my favorite features of this device overall, because it clearly addresses how people often use their front door nowadays — to monitor when packages are delivered. And with that 1:1 aspect ratio, you can easily see everything that gets delivered.
I still wish Arlo offered a basic, free cloud storage option, even just a few hours of saved clips, but I’m slowly starting to come around on the $3 per month price for cloud services, especially when they work as well as the Arlo Video Doorbell.

Connecting Home base 2 to Wi-Fi
This article will help you switch your home base from an Ethernet cable connection to a Wi-Fi connection.
Theoretically, the home base can be located 15 meters from the WI-Fi router. The actual range will vary depending on a number of factors such as wall thickness, obstacles inside the home, and the location of the router.
Before you do
1. If the range of the home base and camera is within acceptable limits and the signal is strong, it is recommended to use a standard Ethernet cable connection.
2. If your home base and camera range are out of range, you can set your home base to connect via Wi-Fi. Of course, the corresponding network transmission will become less stable and the real-time stream may have more delays.
How to do
1. During setup, the home base must connect to the router using an Ethernet cable.
2. Once set up, the home base can be switched to Wi-Fi connection under the device tab > Select Home base > Home base settings > General > Wi-Fi connection . This step in the application also applies to other versions of home base.

Xiaomi Smart Video Doorbell (White)
*Receiver speaker module (speaker) is not included.
Suspicious environment detection
Smartphone notification
The doorbell is equipped with a PIR sensor and MotionClips video recording function. If a person lingers within a zone of three meters from the door, the device will record a short video and send it to your smartphone. You will be able to take the necessary measures in time.
Voice interaction
Find out who’s here without getting up from your sofa
Connect the bell to a wireless speaker that will tell you about the guest and show him.
More useful features!
Many useful functions are available to you. For example, you can record a message that a guest hears, or set it to automatically ring after a knock on the door.
Watching the door around the clock
Often delivery couriers come when we are not at home and leave the package under the door or in a secluded place on the site. The call camera monitors what is happening around the clock and can tell whether the package is waiting for you or the courier took it with him.
Remote care for relatives
You no longer need to be afraid that children or the elderly will let a stranger in, because now you can use the video call and find out about the guests, even if you are not at home. In the MiHome application, you can additionally link the bell to the speaker and record a reminder message not to open the door to strangers, which will be played when the doorbell rings.
Voice change in dialogue
The call is equipped with a special SafeSound function that works in conjunction with a smartphone. It allows you to change the timbre of the voice in the running dialogue mode. The function is useful for children and young girls who are alone in the house. They can turn into a strong man in a second and talk to strangers.
Smart Face Recognition
Xiaomi’s AI Face Recognition technology accurately detects whether there is a stranger standing in front of the door or someone already listed as a trusted person*. You will receive a notification with the names of visitors, so it is not necessary to approach the screen or open the picture. *Recognition is influenced by external conditions and may make mistakes.
High autonomy, energy saving
Four AA dry batteries provide high call autonomy. The secret lies in the FastWake feature. When someone rings the bell, it starts recording and transmitting video. The call also quickly enters the power-saving mode. *According to laboratory data, batteries are enough for 6 months of operation, subject to ten awakenings during the day and recording six-second clips.
Video cloud storage
Now, when buying a video call, you do not need to spend money on memory cards, because free cloud storage is much more convenient and safer. You can always access it from your smartphone and not be afraid to damage or lose it along with your data.
Clear night vision
The corridor is clearly visible even in the dark
The bell camera provides a clear image of the corridor even in pitch darkness. The built-in dual IR-CUT light filter automatically triggers the system based on lighting conditions, freely switching between normal mode and night vision mode.

How Much is My PS4 Worth? (Jun 2023)
- Thinking about selling your PS4 but aren’t sure what it’s worth? We got you covered!
- Depending on the system’s condition, model, and storage capacity, you could get somewhere between $50.14 and $175.00. That’s not a bad chunk of change, considering it came out in 2013.
- But where can you sell a PlayStation 4 for the most money? eBay / Gamestop / Buyback Stores?

How Much is a Used PS4 Worth?
The PS4 might be an older system, but it’s still incredibly popular. That being said, new generations of game consoles come out regularly. If you’re going to sell, you should sell soon, before the system becomes obsolete or completely floods the used market and drives the prices down.
So, let’s talk about money. As a rule of thumb, a used PlayStation 4 generally sells for about 50-55% of its retail price. An average Playstation 4 with a single controller, a 500GB hard drive, and cords currently costs $299 brand new.
Right now, depending on the model and condition, your used console would likely sell for around $50.14 to $175.00. However, this amount will continue to drop as more recent models debut, similar to what happened when the PS5 came on the scene.

Top 3: Where to Sell Playstation 4 Consoles?
You have various options when it comes to selling a used game console. Let’s break it down…
- Online buyback stores
- Gamestop
- eBay
Compare Buyback Offers Online
The first place you should look into is an online buyback store. You can use a comparison site to find the best deals from trustworthy buyback stores with 5-star reviews. Accept the deal from the store with the best up-front PS4 trade-in value, pack and ship your console, and you’ll receive your money through PayPal, direct deposit, or a check. It truly is that simple!
How Much Can You Sell a PS4 For?
That all depends on what type of Playstation 4 you own. The PS4 Pro, PS4 Slim, and the original PS4 all had various price points, so their trade-in value will differ as well.
PS4 Pro Trade-in Value (Jun 2023)
How Much Is a PlayStation 4 Pro Worth?
The PS4 Pro trade-in value is higher than the other models. The used prices currently offered at buyback range from $82.32 to $175.00, depending on condition. If your PlayStation 4 Pro is pristine, you stand to make more money on your deal.
Stores will still pay reasonable rates for a PS4 Pro in good condition with minimal scratching, but a dead or faulty model isn’t worth much these days. Your PS4 Pro hard drive size also affects its value. Understandably, the 2 TB model means a bigger payout for you than the one with only 1 TB of space.
PS4 Slim Trade-in Value (Jun 2023)
How Much Is a PlayStation 4 Slim Worth?
The PS4 Slim has a trade-in value between $53.40 and $115.00 as of this month. Again, stores pay more for mint-condition models, middle-of-the-road prices for units in good condition, and little, if anything, for badly damaged consoles or those that no longer run. The PS4 Slim came with a 500 GB or 1 TB hard drive, and more storage means more cash in your pocket.
Original PS4 Trade-in Value
How Much Is an Original Playstation 4 Worth?
A used original PS4 will currently get you between $50.14 and $120.00 at most buyback stores. It’s not a lot compared to the PS4 Pro. To maximize your payout, we recommend viewing all of your options on a comparison website first. Make sure you’re honest about its condition, though, because if it doesn’t match your description upon arrival, you may lose the sale entirely.
The original PS4 included a 500 GB or 1 TB hard drive, just like the Slim model that came after it. If you’re lucky enough to own the higher-storage console, you’ll make out slightly better when looking for a buyback.

1TB | $105.00 | Compare | ||
500GB | $85.00 | $3.84 | Compare | |
* Best market prices updated June 15th 2023 |
Gamestop Console Trade-ins
Gamestop is a great place for a quick and easy sale. Keep in mind, however, that a cash buyback could be significantly less than you’d get elsewhere. They only offer the total buyback value if you trade your console in for store credit.
eBay Marketplace Auction
Selling your original Playstation 4 on eBay could generate a more lucrative sale, but it can be a hassle if you don’t already have an account. You’ll need to set that up, attach an active PayPal account, and then spend time listing the item. eBay also charges you a large percentage of your sale as a kind of finders fee, so you still might fair better with a buyback store.
In Conclusion
The most important takeaway from this guide is that console prices change quickly. The latest Playstation model right now is the PS5, which means the Playstation 4 consoles are still in high demand, but the longer you wait to sell, the less money you’ll make.
As of this month, used PS4 consoles are worth between $50.14 and $175.00 based on the model and its condition. You may make a little more selling on eBay, but pay attention to the fees and shipping cost.
Selling to an online buyback store is more straightforward, and comparison websites allow you to choose the best deal possible. Avoid Gamestop unless you are looking for in-store

PS4 Pro vs. PS4 Slim: Which PlayStation is Right For You?
When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.
(Image credit: Tom’s Guide)
Update: 2025 is the year Sony will stop releasing games for the PS4 and PS4 Pro.
Weighing up the PS4 Pro vs. the PS4 Slim is still something you may want to consider, even with the PS5 now available. Although the new console has got through the worst of its availability problems, the PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro are still offering a compelling gaming experience given they can run some cross-generation games. So picking up one of the last-generation consoles might not seems so strange.
The $299 PS4 Slim (which is now simply known as PS4) replaced the original model with a slightly shrunk-down design. The $399 PS4 Pro is a 4K entertainment machine that can play games and movies in ultra-high resolution.
Read on for a head-to-head between the PS4 Pro and PS4 Slim, so if you’re also fed up of not getting a PS5 you’ll know which back-up choice to go for.

The PS4 Slim is the refreshed version of the standard PS4, with a design that Sony says is 30 percent smaller, 16 percent lighter and consumes 30 percent less power than the launch model. So unless you really need those few inches of extra space, folks who already own a PS4 have virtually no reason to buy the Slim.
At $299, however, the Slim is the cheapest barrier of entry for aspiring PS4 owners who want to play Ghost of Tsushima or Death Stranding. Also, the Pro won’t do you much good if you don’t have one of the best TVs with 4K compatibility, so if you don’t already own a 4K TV or don’t have the budget to buy one, go with the Slim.

If you don’t have a PS4 yet, own a 4K television and can afford to spend a little more, you should absolutely go for the PS4 Pro. For $100 more, you get a console capable of playing games and streaming movies in 4K resolution.

So should existing PS4 owners upgrade to the Pro? That’s a tougher call. The ever-growing list of PS4 Pro enhanced games includes Red Dead Redemption 2, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Horizon: Zero Dawn, Uncharted 4 and Destiny 2, so it all depends on what you play and how badly you want to see those games in shiny 4K. Naturally, due to its extra power, the PS4 Pro is notably chunkier than the PS4 Slim, which you may notice if you’re trying to fit it under your TV or in a narrow cubbyhole.

The PlayStation VR headset works on any PS4, though you’ll get the smoothest virtual reality experience possible on the Pro when getting immersed in games like Tetris Effect and Resident Evil 7.
Both the PS4 and PS4 Pro support High Dynamic Range for richer, brighter colors on supported TVs. So whether your screen of choice can use HDR or not, it won’t make a difference to your buying decision.
PS4 Pro vs. PS4 Slim: Game Library
One thing you won’t have to factor in when choosing your PS4 is game selection. All current and upcoming PS4 games work on PS4, PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro — the only difference is they might look a little prettier on the Pro. That means that you’ll get to play excellent exclusives like Spider-Man, God of War and Uncharted 4 as well as third-party blockbusters such as Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare no matter which console you choose. Even new first-party exclusives like God of War Ragnarok are still coming to PS4.
PS4 Pro vs. PS4 Slim: What About the PS5?
If you’re debating between the PS4 and PS4 Pro, perhaps you’re also wondering whether you should get a PS5. The next-gen PlayStation is more powerful, offers new features like its haptics-heavy DualSense controller and 3D audio and comes with some new exclusive games. But it’s more expensive, and difficult to buy due to ridiculously high demand. Besides, it probably won’t come into its own for another year or two yet, once developers have got to grips with making games for the system.
The PS4 Slim is arguably better to buy right now because it’s cheaper, leaving you more money for the PS5 when you fancy picking one up. However now Sony has ended production of most PS4 models, you may just accept the wait for the PS5 to come back into stock.
All in all, the PS4 Slim is a good budget buy, while the PS4 Pro is a wise choice for gamers with 4K televisions who want the very best experience available. That is, if you want a PlayStation right now. Waiting for the PS5 might be a good idea if you want to make more of an investment, albeit a more expensive one, in long-term gaming enjoyment.
You also shouldn’t forget about Microsoft’s offerings either, even if you consider it blasphemy to buy a non-Sony console. There’s the $249 Xbox One S, which has a 4K Blu-ray player and offers HDR gaming, as well as the $499 Xbox One X, which offers even more 4K power than the PS4 Pro, although it does cost more. Then there’s the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, the next-gen Xbox consoles. Like the PS5, they are more expensive, but will have a longer life overall.

PlayStation 4 PRO – review of the new console, model differences, specifications
Sony PlayStation 4 PRO is a new generation game console, a more powerful version of the PlayStation 4. Its key features are 4K UHD and HDR support, which makes the graphics brighter, more contrast, more realistic. The new set-top box slightly changed the design and dimensions, new ports and connectors appeared. In addition, the filling has been significantly improved, which has increased the performance and speed of launching games.
Comparison of PlayStation 4 PRO and Xbox One X
PS4 PRO’s main competitor is the Xbox One X, which was released a year later than Sony’s console and also supports 4K resolution with HDR. In the hope of surpassing its main rival, Microsoft has thoroughly worked on the hardware, and therefore the X has a higher processor frequency, a better video card with a performance of 6 teraflops (Sony has 4.2), increased RAM (12 GB versus 8 GB) and consumes less electricity (245 versus 310 watts).
But the PRO version will not lose its face either. The console has several advantages over its main competitor, thanks to which gamers choose it. Main advantages:
- lighter weight: 3.3 vs. 3.8 kilograms;
- availability of virtual reality technology PS VR;
- nice tiled design;
- exclusive games that are not available to Xbox users;
- lower cost game console.
Appearance, dimensions
Let’s start the review of the new PlayStation 4 PRO with the appearance. It is made in a tiled design – all the same inclined design and sharp edges. True, the third tier appeared in the new version, which is why the dimensions have also changed: now it is 2 centimeters thicker and 0. 5 kilograms heavier than its predecessor. The surface of the set-top box is matte, made in classic black or white colors, although there are also exclusive color schemes.
PS 4 Pro dimensions are as follows:
- length – 29.5 cm;
- width – 32.7 cm;
- height – 5.5 cm;
- weight – 3.3 kg.
An additional USB port has appeared on the rear panel of the new model – now there are 3 of them. The third port will be appreciated by those who plan to use PlayStation VR. We also note the presence of HDMI and Ethernet connectors.
Specifications Sony PS4 PRO
The changes affected not only the appearance of the model, but also its filling. Although the processor remained the same (8-core AMD Jaguar), its frequency was increased from 1.6 to 2.1 GHz. The graphics adapter is AMD Radeon, which has 36 improved blocks and a frequency of 911 MHz. For comparison, in a regular Sony PS4, the number of blocks is 18, and the frequency is only 800 MHz. Due to the improved video card, the set-top box is able to work with high resolutions, up to 4K.
Overall performance also increased to 4.2 teraflops (PS 4 only 1.84). The RAM remains the same – GDDR 5 with 8 GB on board, only now the set-top box has another 1 GB DDR3 for background tasks. Also, the new device, like the Slim series, received support for Wi-Fi routers with a frequency of 5 GHz. But the internal drive remained the same – 1 TB HDD.

Advantages and disadvantages of 4K for console
The main advantage of 4K resolution is improved graphics, because with an equal screen diagonal, players get a greater pixel density. Games look more drawn, detailed and high-quality, but the difference is not so great.
The downside is that not every game supports 4K resolution by default. It is not always possible to simply insert a disc and enjoy the gameplay – sometimes you have to spend extra time finding and installing patches. However, this disadvantage is leveled by the fact that the range of games with 4K support is constantly growing, publishers are seeking support for the highest resolution.
Features of the HDR function
Another difference between the PlayStation 4 PRO and past series is the support for the High Dynamic Range function. It is designed to improve the quality of graphics, is an extended dynamic range and color gamut. For the average user, this means that the picture in your favorite video game will look more colorful and realistic. The color palette expands due to deeper shades of blue, green, red, as well as their various combinations.
PS 4 PRO supports HDR 10 but does not compete with Dolby Vision. To enjoy more realistic graphics in video games, you need to connect the console to a 4K TV, without receivers and adapters. However, there are a few important points to remember:
- only 4K TVs support High Dynamic Range, but not all of them are compatible with HDR 10;
- enabling HDR on PS4 PRO is easy, but setting it up on a TV can be tricky;
- 4K resolution per se will not allow you to enjoy improved color reproduction, this is only possible on TVs that support HDR 10.
Virtual Reality on PlayStation 4 Pro
The development of virtual reality technologies in the new version of the device did not happen. However, reviews of the new PlayStation 4 PRO indicate that when using PS VR, you can enjoy higher resolution and detailed visualization.
Overall gaming performance for console
Comparing the performance of the PRO version with the Slim version of the game console, you can find that games run faster on the new device. The difference is insignificant – only 2-3 seconds.
The graphics on PS 4 PRO are also better. But not enough to write off the standard fourth-generation device or its subsequent Slim version for scrap.
The new PS 4 PRO has video recording and gameplay streaming capabilities, perfect for YouTube gamers. Unlike earlier versions, it does this at 60 frames per second and in FullHD resolution. All this will improve the quality of recorded videos and broadcasts, which subscribers will definitely appreciate.
Conclusion
Before summing up, let’s briefly go over the main advantages and disadvantages of the updated game console.
The main advantages of the new console model are:
- more powerful video card;
- improved technical characteristics;
- the ability to play in 4K resolution, HDR support;
- additional USB port;
- support for all PS4 games;
- good image on screens with FullHD resolution;
- Wi-Fi support in the 5 GHz band.
However, it was not without drawbacks. The main ones are:
- problems installing HDR;
- no support for 4K Blu-Ray.
Sony has released a really improved and more powerful PlayStation 4 PRO game console, which will be a great solution for those who have not had time to buy an older version. The maximum pleasure from the gameplay will be received by the owners of 4K TVs with support for HDR 10. However, owners of simpler TVs can also use the device.
