In this case, I will be recommending a really budget-friendly headphones meant for the gamers out there with basic setup and requirements.

The Alcatroz Neox HP500 is designed to cater for those who are not looking into spending hundreds just for audio purposes. I know that audio is pretty much a pillar for gaming but at the same time regardless of the price range, the entry level audio gears are already sufficient for you perform well. In case you wonder about the Alcatroz branding, do not worry as it is part of Leapfrog Global where are also the founders of Sonic Gear as well as Armaggeddon.

In the packaging, you get only the headphone as well as the user manual only. The adapter however is non-removable and therefore divided into two outputs which are 3.5mm audio jack as well as USB type A, which practically serves the purpose of powering up the RGB lighting.

Key points of this affordable headphone will be its driver size which is 50mm, foldable microphone rather than removable, decent audio quality with acceptable range of bass, RGB lighting and last but not least the pricing.

The design itself is futuristic and will be attractive when you wear it. Take note that the quality of the product is really not bad, though the pricing is really low. The volume controls are located at the left side of the headset and they have chosen to go with wheel-type volume control which is pretty practical. It will be way easier to increase and decrease the volume compared to the standard button type controller.

The Alcatroz Neox HP500 wired gaming headphone is priced at just RM49 if you tend to purchase it directly via their official website. However, if you would want a cheaper deal, you may head to their official Shopee store and get it for just RM44.90 plus a free USB Type-C adaptor. The headphone comes with 1 year of manufacturer warranty and are available in 4 colors, Black Blue,Black Grey,Black Red and White Grey.
