ople are now so used to iPads that we don’t accept crappy airline check-in kiosks anymore. We’re so used to excellent battery life and high-speed internet, that anything that falls short of it sparks impatience and frustration. Relatively affordable consumer-grade quadcopter drones only became possible when accelerometers and processors became cheap enough for consumer electronics tinkerers to take existing components and put them together in new and interesting ways.
The march of technology advances is never-ending — and it’s ever so exciting to see Apple launch its own ludicrously powerful processors, and when Google shows off the Tensor processors in the newest-generation Pixel phones, you’d better believe we lean in for a closer look. These are technologies that will have far-reaching impacts in the computing world, but they live in the siloed universes of Apple and Google respectively. Fun, sure, but where the real impact of new processors can be felt by the startup-loving readership of this very publication, is when the OEM manufacturers flex their vision for the future. In short — as a startup, you’re probably not going to be able to get your hands on an Apple M1 Max or a Google Tensor for your own hardware devices. The same isn’t true for Qualcomm and its Snapdragon silicon.
Qualcomm is in the unusual space of making processors that are powering the entire world around us. This is the technology that’s going to be powering everything from fridges to cars to drones to … well, anything you can possibly imagine, really. SnapDragon 8 lives in smartphones across the world. The 4100+ platform powers wearables. XR2 with its 5G chipset is going to be doing the heavy lifting for AR/VR applications. The 8cx processors will be living in tablets and PCs — and we’ve seen the Snapdragon Ride platform turn up in cars. Seeing Qualcomm taking a serious look at the gaming market is interesting, taking deep niche products like the Nintendo Switch and giving hardware manufacturers a toolkit to build their own, powerful handheld gaming console platforms.
More than just tossing together a pile of chips and wishing console developers a happy journey, Qualcomm made the ever-so-shrewd move to partner with gaming veteran 回收筆電razer to build a developer kit, so software developers can start getting busy while the hardware manufacturing world spools up its product development afterburners.
The Snapdragon G3x Gen 1 Gaming Platform delivers cutting-edge performance and the entire arsenal of Snapdragon Elite Gaming technologies to run all Android games, play content from cloud gaming libraries, stream games from a home console or PC and much more. Available today, the platform is a battle cry for market dominance — and it’s going to be spectacularly interesting to see this one play out.

The platform has a lot that is particularly interesting, including:

The Qualcomm Adreno GPU, which promises 144 frames per second and 10-bit HDR for gaming in over a billion shades of color.
A built-in 1080p60 webcam with two microphones for livestreaming the gaming action to audiences.
A full battery of connectivity options using Qualcomm’s FastConnect 6900 Mobile Connectivity suite. That means Wi-Fi 6 and 6E for low latency and fast upload and download speeds. 5G mm Wave and sub-6 for cloud gaming while streaming the most bandwidth-intensive games from services like Xbox Cloud Gaming or Steam Remote Play.

跟一般耳機相比，一副好的「電競耳機」能提供精準的聽聲辨位能力和高清晰麥克風。（圖／各品牌）

對於玩家來說，想在一場遊戲中贏得勝利，所需配備不只是一台高效能的電競電腦，電競周邊同樣是關鍵，才能相輔相成，近來又以電競耳機的話題度最高，周邊廠商戰力旺盛，各品牌相繼投入開發，究竟音質效果差在哪兒，讓重度玩家們願意花錢投資？

相信很多人想問，一般耳機不行嗎？為何非得要「電競耳機」不可？其實只要是行家，都會告訴你，一副好的「電競耳機」真的很重要，跟一般耳機相比，最大差異就是提供精準的聽聲辨位能力和高清晰麥克風。

請繼續往下閱讀…

＜關鍵1＞聽聲辨位更精準 一般耳機無法比擬

在遊戲的世界裡，「耳朵」相當於玩家的第二副眼，尤其是射擊或大逃殺類型的遊戲，聲音影響勝敗，遊戲中的任何一個步聲、槍擊聲、爆炸聲，甚至只是因武器、彈藥造成的環境音效，都能成為玩家判定敵人位置的關鍵，「聽聲辨位」是一般耳機無法精細呈現的。另外，好的電競耳機在聲音的細節處理也會更細緻，讓玩家聽出各種混雜聲。 也正因為取向不同，拿電競耳機去聽音樂，對講究音樂的人來說，同樣不是一個好選擇。

＜關鍵2＞高清晰麥克風 團隊溝通無阻礙

電競耳機另一個重點是「麥克風」，打團隊遊戲時必須跟隊友們對話，為了讓彼此溝通順暢，麥克風的收音效果可不能太差。除了音質，也有一些使用上的細節不妨注意一下，像是能調整長度和角度，方便麥克風貼近嘴巴，收音更清晰；具備一鍵靜音切換或降噪功能，讓玩家在不需要講話時快速關閉聲音，以及不會收到多餘的環境音。

當玩家一頭裁入遊戲世界，通常沒幾個小時是不會抽離的，因此電競耳機只靠酷炫外型絕對無法讓玩家傾心，「配戴舒適性」才是最重要。

．無線是主流趨勢 可跨平台使用

「耳罩式」為主流，除了舒適性，另一原因是擁有較大的空間配置，得以放入更大的驅動單體等元件，音質自然較佳。 現今市場的銷售走向，除了考量差異化需求，也會鎖定主力客層進行精準行銷。一般玩家為了方便性，愈來愈偏好無線款式，高階電競耳機主打支援多種無線連接方式，可對應不同裝置和遊戲平台。

．硬體搭配軟體 優化個人體驗

此外，時下電競耳機趨勢，不只是強調硬體，也訴求軟體整合，透過軟體來優化個人化的體驗設定，畢竟每一個人對聲音的要求和喜愛都不同，包括可調整遊戲音頻等，這部分則依個人需求而定。
