Turtle Beach is introducing a pair of high-performance gaming earbuds dubbed 'Battle Buds,' which come with a removable high-sensitivity boom microphone for in-game chats with other players. The Turtle Beach Battle Buds have 10mm speakers that deliver full-range sound and are compatible with virtually all mobile devices, as well as Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PS4 and PC systems.
The ideal at-home setup for the avid gamer may include a capable desktop computer, a pair of full-sized over-ear headphones, a supportive chair and special peripherals to further enhance gameplay experiences—but these comforts are simply impractical for on-the-go gaming, which often happens with just one's mobile device. As mobile gaming becomes more prevalent, there is ample opportunity for high-quality accessories to be created expressly for the gamer on the go.
