i like how redragon has evolved, their earlier products are what one would think of a cheap gamer brand, glossy plastic, bulky weird sharp overdesigned edges and unnecesary geometry that just look inmature, aswell as red-painted plastic that didnt combine with anything that wasnt red already so the rgb itself didnt match nowadays their products resemble a more refined and mature taste, matte plastic mostly, softer, more contour oriented and proportionally refined shapes. aswell as they are approaching a color neutral color scheme to let the rgb show trough unimpeded by the hardware paint
I'm glad tech reviewers are starting to look at more budget oriented products, and Reddragon so far has actually impressed me with how they've managed to keep up with trends while keeping their prices down.
I just purchased one myself. The RGB light doesn't really stand out but it is colorful. The sound however, clear, crisp and loud. Really digging the soundbar thus far.
I was looking for a more precise review of this soundbar and voila! Great review. Looking at the build with the rubber at the bottom, the tactile knob and the sound test, I might just snag this soon enough. Subbed!
@@alnahid7698 I haven't gotten it yet. A bit of a delay of plans since my monitor setup ended up not a go. I was gonna elevate my 2 monitors with a dual monitor stand but one isn't VESA supported. I had to scrap this idea for now and maybe think of getting a new monitor 1st
I also bought one this week. I was blown away by how bad it sounded. Not even listening to music or watching movies. Just youtube videos already made me send it back. It's a shame because the look and feel was perfect for my setup
It's also sold under other brands around the world, like atake, for maybe $20. These are all coming out of the same factory. The material is really cheap, the rgb is random and you can't control it, red led for the dial + rainbow for the base is just a weird looking choice. The sound quality is like you would expect from a tiny set of desktop speakers, ie, tinny and bad. The "usb (only for power)" feels like a cheap gimmick to advertise a usb speaker that isn't. But... they are super cheap! (If you buy the other branded versions like atake, anyway). I know people can have different tastes, but hard to understand how you can make a 99% positive review like this. I kept hearing "super crisp! super crisp!"... yeah that's not crisp, that's clipping at almost any volume, because you're running sound effects through tweeters. So... agree with you on the bass out, and the dial does feel nice! I just think you were pulling some punches in other areas of fit and finish. (Like, was your grill missing paint on the left side?)
Oh, wow, I was wrong about not being able to control the RGB. If you touch the logo on the top it cycles through options. Much better than I thought at first.
USB for power is a good thing actually. The other good reason to separate the mini jack connector and USB for power is that the standard power output for the ports of a laptop or desktop is 500 - 800ma (0.5 - 0.8A) at 5V (which means 0.5A * 5V = 2.5 watts and 0.8A * 5V = 4 watts of power range of 2.5-4.0 wattage) while if you use USB phone/tablet charger of 1.0-2.4A your speakers will have access to at least double to quadruple amount of power. If this was an unified USB port providing both audio DAC and speaker driver power transit then the power used for the DAC would further starve the speaker drivers of this power. This power difference will keep the sound from being too thin when cranked and let bass slam with better authority (I use the Bugha sub/sat and with a good USB charging brick on a secondary laptop, it sounds better than the Logitech Z200 which used to be my easy suggestion for budget speakers).
Yeah I saw this and thought I’d get it, and VERY few actual reviewers on Amazon feel the same. Lol. It looks pretty cool for the price, but he seems like he’s trying to sell this.
Hello there! Thanks for this awesome review! I've been scouring a lot of pc accessories and your reviews are really informative and it really helped me a lot. You just earned a new subscriber. I hope you get 100k subscribers before the year ends!
Man ! I was researching because of I'm getting a new pc and I need some budget friendly Mouse, keyboard and speaker , so I stumbled upon your videos about redragon products. Man I've fallen in love with redragon products. And also your videos are too good for me. After watching your videos , I'm getting K552 rgb keyboard and this soundbar. You're such an underrated youtuber. Hope to see you on top one day 💥
The design looks very clean for the price. I’ve seen some similar sound bars at this price point and they look much cheaper than this one. Also, kind of weird but the Amazon link is not working for me
@@dillanskatez8376 no regrets. I like it and still loving it now. Good for casual listening. I dont do heavy gaming, but for movies and other stuff, for its price, super worth it!
@@swhynhm5922 Edifier R980T, pretty cheap and good sound too. I use it for my record player, and it's pretty good, so I imagine it'll be as good for the PC
I have an ear problem so I particularly game on speakers, even competitive games like Valorant. I usually don't go for soundbars, would you recommend this or a 2 speaker setup? And if that then which one? Are creative pebble 2.0s good?
Would you consider reviewing the GM100 or GM300, they are microphones by Redragon, but haven't seen a good review. Was hoping you could. Always a pleasure to watch your videos tho.
Too much bass is not good for watching TV or gaming. Then you don't hear certain other sounds that are sometimes more important. And if the bass is too high, it will eventually give you a headache. There must be a balance when it comes to gaming, music and watching TV, that's just my opinion of course and from my own experience.
I have an HP DHE-6003 soundbar that looks and works exactly like this... Actually i didn't notice you can change the RGB by touching the top but it has the same functionality.
Would these still be recommended now, or is there another budget sound bar you’d recommend? Not looking to spend much, as use Razer headphones for gaming, but an alternative for when I can’t be bothered to use the headset
Came back to this video and purchased via link, thanks for the review, sound bar looks really great I'm going to use it for 2nd desktop because all I have is monitor speakers for now for it and its terrible audio lol main PC has the GS520 Anvil speakers and they are amazing! Thanks again!
I bought this speaker 2 weeks ago.. And now I found out that the right speaker is not producing any sounds "not working". Maybe I receive a defective item. And maybe you should test your speaker too ahm I just to know if it's not working too.
I'm excited i ordered these yesterday due to wanting them for awhile but amazon here lately ripped off me off a third time because the amazon website said today that it was still at the lexena,KS building and usps said it departed yesterday and was going to be here today. i am also going to ask if anyone else is having problems from amazon like this.
Bro I need help i got the redragon m808 storm elite and its working really good but in rocket league when I jump twice it works but sometimes when I try to jump twice I double click but it makes me jump once for some reason
The 70 has a subwoofer. Anyway I want to ask, is this bar "60" better for gaming than the 20? (anvil) Note that I play offline games significantly more :3
