EPOS H3Pro Hybrid Review - another ANC headset with wife blocking powers
69This is a review of the @EPOSGaming H3Pro Hybrid, a headset that surprised me. After previously trying the H6 Pro Open (https://youtu.be/u3RpNHAVnSU) and the H6 Pro Closed (https://youtu.be/w4c0EkvJI0s), I was expecting more of the same. But this one is different thanks to ANC and other things like dual-wireless connectivity.
