Gaming on a budget with EasySMX!

Rating: 7.5.

Not all gamers can afford to splash the cash on high end peripherals and thankfully there are plenty of budget models on the market to choose from. In this review we take a look at EasySMX's offering in the form of a £19 wireless controller and the £20 Cool 2000 headset.  EasySMX is a Chinese company based in Shenzhen that have been around since 2012 and have focused on creating affordable peripherals since 2014. The big question needs answered though — are they any good?
