Practical notes owners raise — setup, quirks, and issues to watch for. They don't say whether the person likes the product, so they're not counted in the score, but they inform the pros, cons, and who it's for.
“The quick fix is to just EQ the mic with Synapse and it makes a huge difference.”
“Didn’t experience it at all neither on the v2 pro v2 pro 2023 nor the V3 Pro”
