RHA SA950i Headphones Review

Luke Hill January 17, 2013 Featured Tech News, Headphones

Black leather and plastic combine with metallic touches to give the SA950i a subtle, understated appearance.

The mirrored finish of each cup's external casing creates an eye-catching reflective look. Surprisingly, the glossy plastic does a good job at resisting fingerprints and smudges.

Weighing in at a miniature 105g, the SA950i's lightweight design makes the headphones easy to use when on the move.

Storage when not in use shouldn't be an issue, thanks to the pair's robust design that minimises the likelihood of unwanted breakages.

The detachable 1.5m cable allows users to quickly and simply disconnect the headphones from their playback device. This has the benefit of allowing the audio-transmitting cable to remain in its routing position while the headphones are being stored, cleaned or are just generally away from the head area.

The supra-aural RHA SA950i headphones' ear cups are able to rotate by a full 360 degrees, giving users an unprecedented amount of freedom when selecting the most desirable wearing position.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.

    They look a little like the beats phones for mobile. probably better. I agree, they look very appealing indeed.

    Nicely detailed review Luke, good info.

    Thanks for a great review. These look great. Any idea if they will work on a Nokia Lumia 920? RHA themselves are not sure. Thanks

    I asked your question directly and they have replied “the SA950i’s (and the MA450i earphones) are ‘Made for iPhone’ so offer full functionality with recent Apple products. Some call and music control is offered on Android and other smartphone devices, however, this functionality is dependent on all of model, generation, software as well as which applications are installed; as I’m sure you can appreciate, we therefore can’t guarantee full functionality on the Nokia Lumia 920.”

    Thanks for trying, it is the same answer that RHA gave me. If I get the opportunity I will try it out and post the results.
