Pros and cons
Das Keyboard
Pros
- Wireless is yes, and the headset side runs 30 hours on a charge, so a long session needs no cable.
- The range spans gaming keyboard and gaming headset, so the keyboard and the headset come from the same maker.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre, which includes a phone line rather than email alone.
Cons
- Noise cancelling is no, so the headset gives no quiet on a noisy commute or in a loud room.
- Shipping is listed for US only, so buyers elsewhere need to confirm delivery before ordering.
- Platforms cover pc only, which leaves out console and handheld players.
Edifier
Pros
- The catalogue spans headphones, earbuds and speakers, where HyperX lists headphones and earbuds and CORSAIR lists headphones.
- Entry pricing of $7.99 ranks 2 of 64 brands, near the front of the field on starting cost.
- Noise cancelling is available and the listed battery figure of 49 hours sits just above the 40 hour median across the site.
Cons
- Warranty runs 1 to 2 years, so entry models carry the shorter term rather than the longest cover on offer.
- The direct store serves US, CA and AU, so buyers in other markets buy through a different route to the same range.
- Turntables sit outside the Edifier line, while JBL covers them within headphones, earbuds and speakers.
Who each suits
Das Keyboard
Who it suits
- PC gamers who want a mechanical keyboard and a wireless headset in the same desk setup.
- Buyers who want phone support, since support runs on email, phone and help centre.
- Shoppers in US who want delivery covered in a listed region.
Who should look elsewhere
- Console and handheld players: HyperX covers gaming headset, gaming mouse and gaming keyboard, including a controller.
- Anyone chasing quiet on the move, since noise cancelling is no here; Skullcandy is a headset-only alternative listed at gaming headset.
- Buyers who want a gaming mouse in the same basket: CORSAIR lists gaming headset, gaming keyboard and gaming mouse alongside its headsets.
Edifier
Who it suits
- Shoppers building a single audio setup across headphones, earbuds, speakers, soundbars and hi-fi under one name.
- Gamers on PC, PlayStation, Switch or mobile, since the gaming range covers pc, playstation and switch and wireless is supported.
- Buyers in the US, Canada or Australia, where the direct store serves US, CA and AU.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want turntables: JBL covers headphones, earbuds and speakers, which runs past the hi-fi end of the Edifier range.
- Buyers who only need personal audio can compare HyperX at headphones and earbuds or CORSAIR at headphones rather than a catalogue that also carries speakers and hi-fi.

Questions about each
Das Keyboard
What does Das Keyboard actually sell?+
The range is gaming keyboard and gaming headset, a PC gaming keyboard and a PC gaming headset from the same company. That is a narrow but coherent line: if your desk is built around a PC, you can cover typing and audio without shopping two makers. There is no controller or gaming mouse in the range, so those come from elsewhere.
How much does a Das Keyboard setup cost?+
Entry price is $99 for the headphone side of the range, with keyboards sold alongside it. In the site ranking on price from, the brand sits at 34 of 47, which reads as a middle position rather than either end. Budget for the headset and treat the keyboard as a separate decision.
Edifier
How much does Edifier cost at the cheapest end?+
The catalogue starts at $7.99, taken from the store's lowest priced listings rather than from a flagship pair. That entry figure ranks 2 of 64 brands on starting price, so the budget end is where Edifier is most competitive. Pricier tiers sit above it.
Does Edifier make noise cancelling headphones?+
Yes. Noise cancelling is listed for the over-ear headphones, and that model also carries 49 hours of battery with ldac codec support. The feature is recorded against the headphone rather than the whole catalogue of headphones, earbuds and speakers, so check each model before buying.
