Today Bitfenix announced that they will move into another direction as the did before.

They are now even producing Headphones, besides ther Chassis, Cable extensions, Fans and Lighning thingys.

 

The BitFenix Flo is a "Headset" designed for multiple usage.

The user should have a decent Headset for using with his/her PC/Laptop and a pair of Headphones for using

with thier mobile device such as a Smartphone etc.

The Flexible Microphone can be de/attatched if you so desire,

to remove the issue of having a standalone Microphone at your Computer but also for mobility reasons

(seriously who takes a standalone Mic with him/her to a LAN party anyways?)

 

 

Features:

 

 BitFenix's amazing SofTouch™ Surface Treatment

16µ, Neodymium magnet drivers, Φ40mm

Rated Impedance of 68 Ω

sensitivity of 96db /1mW

 

 

Price:

~ £50

Hmm interesting, do we have a price?

 

I wouldn't have expected a 68 Ohm impedance for mobile devices though? Don't they start to hit their limit at about 32?

I really hope BitFenix isn't going to be another Monster or Skullcandy, these better sound at least somewhat decent...

Hope they don't turn out to be Beat-Fenix headphones.

Too many shitty overpriced headphones on the market at this point, hope Bitfenix doesn't take that approach!

They looks nice, and that price tag seems very competitive. Will wait for reviews though, could be another entry to Fashion headphones.

They cost £50 and they look like they spent £45 on the aesthetics.

Pretty sure these are going to be bad, lol

Nice that they have their soft touch material on the headphones. The reviews for this seem to be pretty great. Gotta find a chance to test it personally. :)

Hope they're good. Not even my fanboyism will mean money for BitFenix in this case if the audio is typical Razer/ Skullcandy/ Turtle Beach/ Koss shit.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

To me, they look unappealing AND uncomfortable, and while the modularity of including options for dual 3-pole, single 4-pole, and having a removable mic is nice, the mic itself looks really stiff and overall not that good. I'd rather go with a SteelSeries if I didn't already have a headset.
