Newskill, specialist in gaming peripherals, has just unveiled the first wireless headsets of its catalog: these are the Seth news, available in black and in the usual Ivory (white) of the brand, and which will allow us to forget about the wiring while we play but without giving up having a spectacular sound and, of course, RGB lighting.
Wireless headphones represent a giant leap in terms of comfort, because having a cable from the PC to our head is often a big inconvenience. With the new Seth, Newskill offers an alternative so that players can choose between playing wirelessly using their USB receiver, or via cable since they have the particularity of having a connector as well. 3.5mm minijack, thus increasing its compatibility.

As we mentioned a moment ago, the greatest peculiarity of these Newskill Seth is that it gives the user the possibility to operate them in wireless mode, thanks to the included USB receiver, and thus have the greater freedom of movement and comfort, or can be connected via the included 3.5mm minijack cable, making them compatible not only with PC or Mac, but also with any other audio source that supports the 3.5 connector mm, like consoles PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S, Nintendo Switch
For wireless communication, Newskill did not complicate life and used technology 2.4 GHz wireless, a very reliable technology that gives us a maximum distance of 10 to 12 meters to move freely without interference. Of course, in the pursuit of a fairly light design, the Seth do not display a great autonomy since, according to the manufacturer, they have up to 5 hours if you have the RGB on, and double if you unplug it.
As this is a wireless headset, we do not have a control panel on the cable but it is built into it. Thus, in the left earpiece we have the microphone but also the buttons to raise and lower the volume, mute the sound, turn off the lighting and, of course, the on and off button. the microphone by the way, it is removable, which gives us even more convenience if we want to use the headphones only for watching a movie or listening to music and not for communicating by voice.
Regarding the design, Newskill opted for the traditional closed circumaural with faux fur covered earmuffs and an oval design. It has of course a padded and adjustable headband to fit all head sizes, which, combined with its soft pads and low weight, will make it easy for us to forget that we are wearing headphones.
Finally, it should be mentioned that Newskill has installed drivers for 50mm neodymium magnets to ensure clear sounds in the treble and midrange with powerful bass, although it is true that in this case the sound is only stereo and we don’t have a virtual surround sound option. Overall, they travel in a very standard frequency range (20Hz to 20KHz) and high quality sound is guaranteed.
Pricing and availability
The new Newskill Seth wireless headphones are now available, both in black and ivory (white), in the manufacturer’s online store for 69.95 dollars, although it is true that they currently have a launch promotion thanks to which we can save 10 Euros and acquire them for 59.95 $.
As usual, Newskill also announced that in a few days we will have them available at the manufacturer’s usual outlets, such as Amazon Europe and PcComponentes.
