EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid review

 

Gaming with your buds

Premium, stylish design ; Comfortable ; USB-C dongle works really well ; Decent sound

Can’t use the microphone at all if the dongle is plugged in ; No multipoint connection ; Expensive for what they are

Nearly brilliant, but won’t satisfy every type of gamer

EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid

 

The GTW 270 Hybrid buds ship with a USB-C dongle that provides low-latency performance when gaming and Bluetooth 5.1 for when you're not.

EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid Review

 

Ready to replace that big, bulky gaming headset? We test out the latest wireless gaming earbuds from EPOS - the GTW 270 Hybrids.

+ Can be used with USB-C or Bluetooth devices + Aesthetically pleasing + Comfortable for extended periods of time + Excellent overall performance + Closed design blocks out external noise + IPX 5 water resistance

- Microphone only available with Bluetooth - No physical volume dial

We’ve reviewed countless headsets here at Vortez but this is the first time we’ve had the pleasure of delving into the world of earbuds, (and gaming earbuds at that) and we’ve been blown away by what EPOS has to offer in the GTW 270 Hybrids.

EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid Review

 

The true wireless EPOS GTW 270 earphones come with a dongle for streaming audio from your Nintendo Switch. They sound, feel, and look good, but they're not designed for voice chat.

Expensive ; Microphone doesn't work with adapter ; No place to store adapter

These wireless gaming earbuds deliver less lag but not much more

 

Solid execution when it comes to minimizing latency and preserving audio quality, but the microphones don't work while connected wirelessly to the USB-C dongle.

Imperceptible lag when paired to USB-C dongle ; Swappable silicone tips for comfort and sound isolation ; Compatible with multiple devices

Microphones are inoperable when connected via USB-C ; Scratch-prone charging case ; They’re light on features for the cost

The GTW 270 Hybrid truly wireless earbuds from EPOS can deliver great audio with an imperceptible amount of lag from the included USB-C Bluetooth dongle, which is compatible with the PS5, Nintendo Switch, and more. However, its microphones don’t work...

EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid Truly Wireless Review

 

The EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid Truly Wireless are truly wireless headphones with a USB-C dongle for low-latency audio for on-the-go gaming. They're a good match for cas...

Low latency on mobile devices over Bluetooth. Companion software features an EQ and audio presets. Good mic recording quality. Impressive build quality. Comfortable, stable fit. Very little audio leakage.

No power-saving features. Sub-par mic noise handling capability. Small soundstage. Limited control scheme.

The EPOS GTW 270 are okay for neutral sound. They have a fairly well-balanced default sound profile, with a touch of added bass that emphasizes the boom and punch of EDM and hip-hop music, but without overwhelming more delicate vocals or lead...

EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid Gaming Wireless Earbuds Review

 

EPOS has launched its very first solely EPOS-branded mobile gaming peripheral, introducing the GTW 270 Hybrid wireless earbuds.

Review: EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid | Small And Fast EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid

 

EPOS has created a set of truly wireless earbuds for the player that cannot settle for Bluetooth.

Really good sound. AptX for near-CD quality. Loss- and lag-free sound via USB dongle.

No electronic noise reduction. The microphone is not as good as on full-sized gaming headsets.

The EPOS GTW 270 Hybrid is an exceptional gaming headset by virtue of its size. Or an unusual pair of completely wireless earbuds thanks to the wireless USB connection. And it works pretty well in both roles. For long gaming sessions, I would still...
