Hiditec HDT1: technical characteristics

Hiditec HDT1: unboxing and product analysis

The Hiditec HDT1 are offered in a cardboard box in which the colors black and blue predominate with a quite attractive combination to the eye. The front part is a large window that also has a small flap that we can open to see the most important characteristics of the product. On the right side we only see the brand logo and a part of the window, on the other hand on the left side we are shown the compatibility with the different systems. Finally at the bottom and the back we see all the most important specifications of the speakers and the microphone.

We open the box and we see the helmets very well accommodated by a plastic blister first, we continue investigating and we find a very complete bundle formed by the helmets themselves with a simple cable with a 3.5 mm mini jack tip, and all the cables and accessories we need to use the helmets in the different systems with which it is compatible. We have a cable that includes the remote control that we will connect to the 3.5 mm jack connector integrated in the helmets themselves and various extra cables that we will connect to the cable with the remote to connect it to different systems such as PS3 and Xbox 360.

Of course we also find a removable microphone and a small instruction manual that we must necessarily read if we want to use the helmets on any of the consoles, otherwise we will not know how to make them work.

We are already focusing on the Hiditec HDT1 themselves and we got a pretty good first impression right away. We have a design based on the colors black and blue that looks very good and has lines that remind us that it is a product focused mainly on a young audience, although of course everyone can benefit from high-quality helmets like these. The Hiditec HDT1 are mainly made of plastic, this allows achieving a very contained weight that will undoubtedly contribute to a much more comfortable wearing experience.

We have a classic headband design, quite padded by the way so it will be comfortable during long sessions of use. In the union of the headband to the headphones we find the typical system that allows to adjust the height of the helmets so that it can adapt very well to the head of all users. Helmets for gamers must be comfortable to allow pleasant use during long sessions and Hiditec has done an excellent job in this regard.

We are still talking about the headphone area, inside are hidden 40mm amplified neodymium speakers with a sensitivity of 117dB that promise excellent immersion in the game thanks to its digital processing. The speaker characteristics continue with an impedance of 32 Ohm and a response frequency of 20 - 20, 000 Hz. The speakers have pads finished in synthetic leather and with a quite soft padding for greater comfort during long sessions of use, let's not forget that the Hiditec HDT 1 are helmets mainly intended for players and they usually spend many hours in the field of battle.

In the left earphone we find a 3.5 mm jack port that will serve to place the removable microphone that we can put on and remove in a very simple way so it will not bother us when we are not using it. It is an omni-directional microphone with noise cancellation technology that will allow us to communicate with our colleagues in a very comfortable way during our favorite games.

Now we look at the cable of the Hiditec HDT1 and we see that it is finished in rubber to increase its durability, thus preventing it from being easily damaged. As we have said before, the cable integrated in the helmets is very simple and it only has a 3.5 mm jack connector to which we will connect the main cable with the control knob and the rest of cables according to the system in which we are going to use them, its instruction manual details everything perfectly.

The control knob includes numerous controls among which we can highlight the activation and deactivation of the microphone, the selector for PC and PS3 / Xbox 360 modes and several ports to which we can connect the different cables necessary.

Final words and conclusion about Hiditec HDT1

The Hiditec HDT1 are gaming helmets whose main differential value is a tremendous compatibility that means that we can use them in practically any multimedia device, whether you are a PC, console, smartphone or tablet user, you will be able to enjoy great sound quality in all your games and with the same device, with this you will end up saving a lot of money compared to having helmets for each platform and you will avoid having a closet full of gadgets.

WE RECOMMEND YOURazer Tartarus Chroma review

In our tests we have tested the Hiditec HDT1 both on PC and PS3 and the experience has been very good in both cases. It is mandatory to read the instruction manual if you are going to use the helmets in console since otherwise you will know how to mount them well, your initial instinct may be to plug them into the USB port of the PS3 without further ado and thus you will not get them to work.

Despite being a fairly inexpensive product, Hiditec has been able to install a sound subsystem that works really well and offers very good sound. I have used them to play, listen to music and watch videos and the result has been very good in all scenarios with a loud and clear sound, the sound they are capable of offering is high, so there is no problem in this regard. They do not have virtual 7.1 sound but the truth is that they are not missed due to the good experience they provide. In this sense, what is most missed is a software for PC that allows us to squeeze them a little more with some extra functions, however we believe that helmets are not directed in this sense so it is not a great inconvenience either but it would be something to keep in mind for future reviews.

We recommend reading our best gamer helmets for PC.

Finally, the microphone offers the expected performance in a product like this, it will help us to communicate perfectly with our friends, but as it always tends to be below the quality of the speakers and this time it is also true, we have a very correct microphone but that does not stand out, really nothing to object because we remember once again that we are facing one very cheap gaming helmets.

As a final conclusion we can say that the Hiditec HDT1 are an excellent option if you want to buy high quality helmets that will suit all your platforms, for an approximate price of 60 euros they offer us excellent sound, an attractive and comfortable design and a microphone that perfectly fulfills its mission. The Hiditech HDT1 are for sale in the main online stores for an approximate price of 60 euros. It is not easy to make such an attractive product amid so much competition in the market for PC helmets.
