EKSA Introduces Air Joy Plus Ultralight Gaming and Mobile Headset with 7.1 Surround sound and ENC Technology
With an eleven-year history of developing and manufacturing headphones for top global brands, gaming peripheral experts EKSA is pleased to announce the release of its latest headset, the Air Joy Plus. This Ultra-light wired gaming headset with 7.1 surround sound, noise cancelling microphone and advanced ENC technology to block out external noise is available directly from the EKSA website for $35.99/£28 approx until January 31st 2022 (RRP $55.99/£43 approx)
The EKSA Air Joy Plus 7.1 surround sound gaming headset was developed by pro gamers and game designers to be ultra-light and thus comfortable for long gaming sessions. Weighing in at just 204 grams, the Air Joy Plus is almost half the weight of most other gaming headsets currently available in the market. The slim, yet sturdy, inner metal body distributes the pressure evenly across the head while the soft woven, extra-large and breathable earmuffs ensure a comfortable fit with less clamping force.
The Air Joy Plus headset allows gamers to enjoy extreme immersion whilst gaming with 7.1 surround sound (driver included) so they can hear exactly where enemies coming from as if they were actually in the game itself. The custom-tuned driver and accurate and balanced audio production means gamers can tell where a noise is coming from rather than be overwhelmed by thundering explosions, in turn losing the subtle footsteps of opposition players. If being used in a noisy environment on a smartphone or Nintendo switch, the Joy Plus’s built in Electronic Noise Cancellation technology drowns out external noise to ensure the gamer isn’t distracted and can focus on the gameplay.
The noise canceling microphone picks up the voice clearly while isolating the ambient noise and the detachable design allows it be removed when not in use. The audio wire is also detachable and the 90° adjustable hinge makes the headset extremely portable for travelling, mobile gaming or for wearing around the neck when on a gaming break. The volume slider and microphone mute button are easily accessed on the Air Joy Plus for quick and convenient control.
Compatible with most smartphones, the EKSA Air Joy Plus also provides seamless use across multiple platforms including Windows 7/8/10, PC, Laptop, Mac, PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch.
The EKSA Air Joy Plus 7.1 Surround Sound Ultra-light Gaming Headset is available directly from the EKSA website for $35.99/£28 approx until January 31st 2022 (RRP $55.99/£43 approx)

It has been quite the run for NaVi despite their loss with back to back grand finals in recent weeks but CSDB.gg’s predictive model suggests there will be no let up for the Ukrainian esports organisation.
G2 will also be looking to build more momentum in preparation for Majors season with NiKo on a quest to finally get over the line this year to win his first major title. Hopefully Rio won’t have to see a repeat of his reaction in the semifinals at BLAST Premier Fall Final 2024 where he punched a hole in a table after losing out to Team Vitality in a key moment.
However, the hosts of Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024 may want to lockdown any nearby furniture and reinforce their desks if G2 are set for disappointment at the semifinals stage as predicted by the CSDB.gg SuperComputer.
A victory in Rio could be even more consequential for how the end of the year shapes up for the leading teams on the circuit. The Valve Global rankings have both teams close at the very top (NaVi at 1988 and G2 at 1953) meaning a win for either team could hand them a key advantage when it comes to who enters the Majors as top seed.
Back-to-back wins in T1 events for G2, should they prosper in Rio, would set the Berlin-based team on an incredible trajectory going into the winter months.
Meanwhile, Brazilian hopes for glory look slight according to the CSDB.gg SuperComputer with FURIA, the team co-owned by Neymar, having only been given a 20.9% chance of even making the playoffs.
They are the leading contenders to make an impact for the home crowd but there are other teams flying the flag for Brazil with paiN and Imperial also set to give it their best to give local fans something to cheer on.
In terms of forecasted matchups of note, G2 and FaZe Clan could offer up a fascinating encounter in the quarterfinals should both teams qualify, with each organisation rated as having a strong chance of making the semis with little to separate them should they meet.
How was the CSDB.gg CS2 Tournament SuperComputer created?
The CSDB.gg CS2 Tournament SuperComputer is a predictive model created using world ranking points, team quality ratings and performance trends. An element of randomness is also included in the model to avoid the best teams and players always winning, to reflect the fact that upsets can happen.
Every tournament is simulated 1,000 times with the results aggregated into a percentage rating of the chances teams or players have to achieve the predicted result.
