There’s a lot of tech jargon that goes into explaining them, but to keep things accessible, think of drivers as your speakers, and planar magnetic drivers as an ultra-thin variant that offers up a more accurate representation of sound, less distortion, and in the right hands, a higher frequency response.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.5 out of 5. Price at the time of review: $299.99 / £299.99 Normally when I review headphones, I’ve got several words floating around my head to describe how they sound. With the WH-1000XM5 from Sony, I have one: Versatile. There is very little these headphones can’t do, and they’re one of the few sets of cans that sound great without the need for an equalizer, although to get even more out of these you’ll want to play around to see the true depth of their capabilities.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4 out of 5. Price at time of review: $19.99 / £19.99. It’s easy to see where the ATOM controller from CRKD fits, and what it is and isn’t trying to accomplish. This micro device isn’t trying to compete with the likes of 8BitDo or Razer to be the best controller going. It’s not even a direct opponent to CRKD’s own excellent Nintendo Switch dock-controller hybrid, the Nitro Deck.
