Mavix M9 Gaming Chair Review: Where Ergo and Gaming Collide

Logitech’s MX series is known for delivering high-quality peripherals with features for creatives and professionals. Its Brio line has officially joined with MX bringing us, for the first time, the Logitech MX Brio. It offers a crisp 4K resolution, exceptional, DSLR-like image controls, beamforming microphones, and great low-light performance. The best part? It’s also one of the most affordable webcams of its kind. 

When it comes to seating, few names are as widely known and respected as Steelcase. It has been in business for more than 100 years and has released iconic pieces of furniture, such as the Steelcase Leap, a staple recommendation for chair shoppers and a staple ergonomic chair in offices around the world. Today, we’re looking at the company’s flagship, the Steelcase Gesture. It’s an ergonomic chair that’s perfect for long hours at the PC and one of the best gaming chairs — nay, chairs in general — we’ve ever experienced. It’s expensive but worth every penny.

The Keysme Mars 03 is one of the most unique mechanical keyboards I’ve ever seen. Themed after space exploration, its appearance is equal parts spaceship and custom mechanical keyboard. With a fully aluminum chassis and some of the best attention to detail I’ve encountered, there’s nothing else like it. It also offers a great typing and gaming experience thanks to its smart design, pre-lubed switches, and tri-mode wireless connectivity. At $330, it’s middle of the road for custom keyboard pricing but is more than a little original. 

At only $89, the Celest Plutus Beast offers a lot for the money. It uses a unique tribrid design consisting of an unlikely trio: one balanced armature, one bone conduction driver, and full-range square planar driver.  We would expect these drivers at a higher price point, but the Plutus Beast seems designed to act as a gateway drug to the IEM hobby and Celeste/Kinera’s wider line-up. It’s a good value and a better listen for music and gaming alike. 

It’s a week of unique keyboards here at MMORPG and we have another for you today! The Epomaker Brick 87 allows you to build on it with LEGOs to make it truly unique. It also offers hot-swappable switches, smooth switches, and tri-mode wireless connectivity for an enhanced typing and gaming experience. It has some areas for improvement but is a decent option for LEGO fans.

The upcoming Star Wars strategy game is still in development, Bit Reactor has confirmed. The studio's project status update was offered as part of a wider reflection on the recent news of Electronic Arts canceling Respawn's Star Wars FPS, which was rumored to place the players in the shoes of a Mandalorian bounty hunter.

Corsair just launched its latest gaming mouse, the M75 Wireless. It’s ambidextrous in the truest sense, features swappable side buttons, high-speed wireless with a 2,000Hz polling rate, and an ergonomic shape tailored for speed. It’s a heavier take on the M75 Air Wireless which launched earlier this year, a gaming mouse for gamers not sold on the ultralight craze. At $129.99, it’s expensive but its performance is hard to argue with.

Sennheiser is what many would consider to be a legendary audio brand. It has been in the business for decades making some of the most popular and highly acclaimed headphones you can buy today. We’ve loved its true wireless offerings going all the way back to the original Momentum True Wireless in 2020 and most recently with the Momentum True Wireless 3 in 2022. 

Over the years, we’ve explored many different audio brands in this column. They’ve come from all around the world, including many from China where the personal audio market is exploding. But one place we haven’t yet examined closely is right here at home in the United States. That’s changing this year with our proverbial home-town hero: Campfire Audio.

Xbox Game Pass is scheduled to add Space Engineers to its content catalog later today, February 29. This will be the final February addition to the platform and the 14th new title overall to reach Xbox Game Pass during the shortest month of 2024.

The Cooler Master MK770 is the first keyboard we’ve reviewed in some time from the brand and it seems that it has something to prove. Like Razer, Corsair, and ASUS, the MK770 is Cooler Master’s custom-inspired gaming keyboard, complete with sound dampening silicone, gasket mounting, and pre-lubing. It easily offers the best out-of-the-box typing experience of any Cooler Master keyboard to date, and is competitively priced at only $119.99, but misses the mark in a number of ways.

Welcome back to Golden Ears, our semi-regular column exploring the world of high-end audio. Apart from highlighting neat and interesting products you might not otherwise know about, our goal here is simple: to discover exactly what makes these headphones worth their high entry price. Today, we’re looking at the HIFIMAN HE-1000se, a $2,000 pair of headphones that have been out for several years and are widely regarded as some of the best money can buy.
