The JBL Quantum Stream might be your next gaming microphone
The first USB microphone under the award-winning Quantum lineup!

JBL expands its award-winning gaming product portfolio, bringing its first USB microphone. Meet the JBL Quantum Stream, a dual-condenser microphone with a reversible 360-degree stand.
The microphone aims to be a standalone solution, bringing crystal-clear communication for efficient coordination between gamers. It has a 2 x 14mm dual-capsule Electret condenser with a 24-bit and 96kHZ sampling rate.
With two selectable voice pickup patterns, users can focus on the microphone’s capture between the speaker’s voice or everyone’s voice in the room, which is particularly helpful for podcast recordings or during a group call.
It also comes with easy configurations. For instance, you can tap on the microphone’s top button to instantly mute it. Afterward, it will activate an RGB indicator light, which you can also customize.
Furthermore, there’s no need for additional setups. Thanks to its universal mounting solution, the Quantum Stream can be simply mounted on a stand to fit a certain setup.
Price and availability
The JBL Quantum Stream will retail for PhP 5,499. It will be available starting early June at JBL.com.ph and at select retailers.

Apple Watch Series 9 + Watch Ultra 2 Unboxing
Featuring the bundled bands plus the new FineWoven and Nike Sport bands

Apple’s September 2023 “Wonderlust” Event isn’t just about the new iPhones. They’ve also announced updates to the well-loved Apple Watch Series 8 and Watch Ultra.
The Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 may not look so different from their predecessors, but the new features cater to older Apple Watch users to upgrade.
Aside from the upgraded S9 SiP (System in a Chip), this also enables new features like having a built-in Siri and even Double Tap using your two fingers and wrist.
And thanks to Apple’s Carbon Neutral goal by 2030, the new Apple Watches (at least the Ultra 2 and aluminum-cased Series 9s) are now more sustainable for the environment.
This also means saying bye-bye to our good ol’ leather Watch bands — but wait until you see what Apple has to offer.
Watch our latest unboxing of the new Apple Watch Ultra 2, Apple Watch Series 9 (in Aluminum and Stainless Steel), plus a plethora of bands to try out!

Afterwards, users may easily configure the soundbar’s settings using the professional setup menu on the Philips MediaSuite TV.
All other related settings can be quickly copied and transferred to the entire TV fleet remotely through cloning via PPDS CMND.
