ViewSonic’s new Elite gaming monitors are compatible with multiple RGB lighting ecosystems

By

Elite, ViewSonic’s new gaming monitor sub-brand, has announced a pair of new gaming monitors, dubbed the ​XG240R​ and ​XG350R-C​, equipped with 16:9 standard and 21:9 ultrawide displays, respectively. They are typical, flashy gaming monitors that have high refresh rates and use AMD FreeSync to avoid screen tearing, but their true standout feature is that they both support multiple PC lighting ecosystems.

That’s right. You can mix and match peripherals, but still maintain synced lighting. ViewSonic’s Elite RGB software partners include the TT RGB PLUS ecosystem​ by Thermaltake, Chroma​ by Razer, and MasterPlus by Cooler Master.

The XG240R features a 24-inch display with 1080p resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and a 1ms response time. The XG350R-C is its curved counterpart, and it features a WQHD (3440 x 1440) resolution. Both monitors have HDMI and DisplayPort connections, USB 3.0 ports, AMD FreeSync, and built-in speakers. The XG240R will retail for $266, while the curved variant will cost $716 when they both debut later this month.

While it’s true that none of ViewSonicElite’s specs are groundbreaking or very different from what’s already on the market, the new line strikes a blow for user customization. After all, the main reason why you’d choose one of these monitors is if you care deeply about cross-platform PC lighting. Three software partners aren’t much, but that’s better than just one, especially when one of them is Razer’s own Chroma ecosystem, which includes dozens of well-liked peripherals and gaming computers. It also means you’ll be allowed to customize more parts of your desk setup, rather than being locked into a single ecosystem.

ViewSonic has more than just gaming monitors to tout at CES. It’s also showing off portable and 4K projectors, which will debut around the same time as its Elite sub-brand.

The new M1+ LED portable projector has Wi-Fi / Bluetooth support, 250 lumens of brightness, branded Harman Kardon speakers, full HD support, up to six hours of battery life, and a $549.99 price tag. If you’re more interested in high-end 4K home projectors, ViewSonic will have two debuting later this spring.

Magic Leap is shipping across (most of) the US

By
As Magic Leap holds the first developer conference for its Magic Leap One mixed reality headset, that headset has started shipping across the contiguous United States, instead of in a set of select markets. The Magic Leap One Creator Edition costs $2,295, just like before, but there’s now an installment plan that starts at $96 per month. All orders are supposed to arrive within 60 days. The Magic Leap One Creator Edition went on sale in early August, and while Magic Leap has touted it as a fully functional device, it’s basically meant for people who want to design apps, games, or art for mixed reality. We were ambivalent toward the hardware, which we found limited, and we noted that Magic Leap hadn’t shown off a lot of material that showcased its potential. The company’s developer conference keynote has revealed several new projects. Among other things, Spider-Man studio Insomniac Games is building an experience that will let you grow a holographic creature on your tabletop, and...

The company behind the adorably doomed robot Kuri is shutting down

By
Less than a month after Mayfield Robotics said it was stopping production on its Kuri home robot, the company announced today on its blog that the company will be shutting down. Mayfield Robotics launched in 2015 as part of Bosch’s Startup Platform, but struggled to integrate with and find a business fit within Bosch. Since the cancellation of its Kuri robot, Mayfield Robotics had been looking for external partners for long-term technology development, but was unable to find investment to support its future. The company will cease all operations by October 31st. We first met Kuri at CES 2017, and it wasn’t yet able to showcase all the features it was promised to have in the future. The robot was supposed to have smart assistant functionalities like an Amazon Echo, but with a much cuter face and movable body. Promo videos showed it working as a moving home security camera that was controllable through the Kuri app, but in the demonstration we saw, it only had as much functionality a...

Amazon’s plans for a New York office are under new scrutiny

By
A month ago, when Amazon announced that it would build regional offices in New York and Virginia at great expense to the taxpayers there, I wrote that it had misunderstood the moment : Perhaps the furor over Amazon’s regional offices will blow over. But it’s hard not to feel today as if the company misread the room — overestimating the public’s appetite for a billion-dollar giveaway to one of the world’s biggest companies, and underestimating the public’s ability to raise hell on- and offline. Amazon may yet feel that pain, in the long run. Today, Amazon met the room: 150 protesters who showed up to the first New York City Council hearing about the plan. According to reports from the scene, demonstrators’ concerns start with the $3 billion in incentives that New York plans to give Amazon in exchange for locating there — and, it says, creating 25,000 jobs. Here’s Leticia Miranda in BuzzFeed : ”You’re worth a trillion dollars,” New York City Council Speaker Corey Johnson told the ...
