Thankfully, I didn’t abort the mission, because the audio was well worth the wait.

Updating the headset’s firmware in the Swarm companion software app took longer than expected. What’s it like gaming with the Roccat Syn Max Air? Still, with your charging station set up next to your rig, even 16 hours of battery life is never likely to be a much of a problem.

Compare that to the 40 or so hours you get from the Razer Barracuda Pro and honestly, 16 hours seems a little small. It also made charging simple enough, although according to Roccat the Syn Max Air gives you only 16 hours playtime on a single charge. It meant I always had somewhere to keep my headset safe. On the upside though, the charging doc is super useful. However, strangely enough, in Bluetooth mode you can’t just adjust the volume using the headset’s volume wheel instead, you need to adjust the volume on the device itself, which is quite inconvenient. I also used Bluetooth to enjoy a few hours of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on my Nintendo Switch.

Having a closer listen revealed the Max Air’s drivers to be especially tuned for mid-range frequencies, a fact that’s going to especially favor esports players of games like Fortnite or CounterStrike: Global Offensive. Putting all that connectivity to good use I mainly used the device in Wi-Fi Mode on my desktop PC with the included 2.4GHz USB transmitter, but the Bluetooth became extremely handy for gaming on my laptop when the limited number of ports were all occupied. Trying it on, I found it to feel weighty but not to produce any kind of fatiguing pressure. These comfort gains aren’t compromised by the Syn Max Air’s 11.5 ounce (325 gram) weight either, which is only marginally heavier than the 10.97 ounce (311 gram) Syn Pro Air’s weight. The cups have plenty of memory foam cushioning on them too. Gamers can now enjoy a mesh-like material in the inner rim and plush leatherette around the sides, both of which feel soft and cool. It’s scratchy no more, I’m happy to report. One complaint about this headset’s predecessor was the scratchy mesh fabric that made up the inner lining of each earcup. But what’s infinitely more important is that the cups fit well, and thankfully, they did. Of course, square cups aren’t anything new, but glasses friendly ones with ProSpec earpads like the Syn Max Air’s are-the design of the cups providing grooves for spectacle frames to fit through.īeyond that benefit, though, personally I loved how the Max Air’s cup shape reminded me of timeless characters from classic sci-fi TV shows like the Cyberman from Dr Who. How does the Syn Max Air’s design differ from other headsets?Īmong the first things you’ll notice is the square cuboid-shaped cups, which offer gamers a refreshing alternative to the mundane round cups that have become the predominant style of choice.
