Acer Predator Galea 500 technical characteristics

Unnboxing and design

Acer Predator Galea 500 is a luxury product and it proves it from the first moment. The headset is offered in a cardboard box with exceptional manufacturing quality, this is mostly based on black and a greenish blue tone, the corporate of the Predator brand focused on the most demanding players who seek the best.

Once we open the box we find the Acer Predator Galea 500 perfectly protected by several pieces of foam to prevent it from moving and being damaged during transport. Acer has put a lot of care into ensuring that the peripheral reaches the end user's hands in the best possible conditions. Your bundle is made up of:

Acer Predator Galea 500 has been designed to offer the best comfort during use, which is why a double bridge design in the headband has been chosen.

This design makes a very flexible piece of fabric rest on the head, and this time it is very well padded. Thanks to this design the headset will feel very light and will put very little pressure on our head.

To better fit all users , a height adjustment system has been installed in the headband, this will make the headset adjust automatically when putting it on, so it cannot be easier.

The padding of the domes has also been designed to offer maximum comfort, it is a very soft and abundant padding, it is finished in synthetic leather of the best quality to offer a very good insulation and boost the bass.

Inside the domes there are drivers made of bio-ceculosa and with a rubber coating, these have a size of 40 mm and are supported by TrueHarmony 3D Soundscape technology to offer exceptional sound. These drivers offer 112 dB sensitivity for high volume and sufficient in all situations.

Another element of vital importance in a gaming headset is the microphone, in this case we find a one-way model with a retractable design so that we can store it and that it does not bother us when we are not using it. This mic offers a response frequency of 100 Hz to 10 kHz, an impedance of 2.2 Kilo Ohm and a sensitivity of -40 dB. It is a microphone of the best quality that guarantees crystal clear sound, something very important to have a perfect communication with our companions.

All control must be done from the command integrated in the helmets. This is very easy and intuitive to use. We can choose between the TrueHarmony 3D technology that we will talk about in a little while… We also have the option to activate the music, sport (to play) or cinema (Series and movies) style. We have tried both options and we have fallen in love after several days of testing.

The control knob has a small clip to equip it on our shirt or shirt. The truth is that it is very useful, but somewhat robust.

TrueHarmony 3D Soundscape technology is a virtual 7.1 sound engine that will offer a very faithful positioning of enemies on the battlefield. It is also responsible for boosting the bass to recreate explosions and shots with the best possible fidelity.

We also highlight its connection cable with the PC, this has a length of 2 meters and ends in a USB connector, which is gold plated to improve contact and prevent corrosion over time.

And that's what it looks like once we turn it on. That last! Truth?

Final words and conclusion about Acer Predator Galea 500

The Acer Predator Galea 500 gamer helmets hit the market by stomping. They are focused on those users who are looking for the cream of the cream in sound and have an emblematic design.

Among its technical characteristics we find an impedance of 2, 200 Ohm, a top-notch DAC built into the controller, one of the best built-in microphones we've tested (incorporates retractable design), 40mm headbands, and a sensitivity of 112 dB.

Our experience has been quite good with the Acer Predator Galea 500 both in film / series, music, gaming and daily use. They are comfortable when we use it and the sound quality is very good. Although it took us a while to get used to them, since we usually use professional-grade headphones with an external DAC;).

How is it different from classic gamer helmets of less than 100 euros? Clarity, treble and much higher bass. In addition, the profiles that it incorporates are very noticeable and are very well established. TrueHarmony 3D technology helps to quickly identify by the area that our rivals come to us, this is ideal in games like PUBG or Fortnite.

We miss a couple of details, the first is the incorporation of velvety pads. With these we would have greater comfort than the synthetic pads that it incorporates. While the second best is the incorporation of management software.

Its RRP is 299 euros, but on Amazon we have seen it above 220 euros + shipping. Is it a high price? It may be, but its characteristics and that the set is so good is the reason for its price. What do you think about the Galea 500?
