  • HP is competing in an increasingly crowded field with its Omen Mindframe, as gaming headsets are now more common than ever. What's not common, however, is active cooling. HP's thermoeletric solution is both unique and effective, and it's what makes the Om...

  • Imprecise fit, No audio-tweaking options, FrostCap can be uncomfortable
  • The Omen Mindframe's $199 MSRP is way too high for a mediocre headset, but if you can find this item for $150, the value proposition is a little better. FrostCap is a novel technology that could theoretically help out folks whose ears get hot during long...

  • The headset space is exciting these days. The more crowded it gets, the more gimmicks we're seeing. It's one of the few reliable ways to stand out, especially if, like HP, you're coming late to the market. The more gimmicks you put out there, the more lik...

  • The OMEN by HP Mindframe Advanced Gaming Headset offer decent virtual 7.1 Surround Sound for gaming, as well as audio. The real winning feature, though, is just how cool they keep your ears during long gaming or listening sessions. Sadly these are PC only...
