Gaming performance is where the Asus ROG Cetra True Wireless Speednova shines. Using the USB-C 2.4GHz transmitter connected to a PC, audio latency drops to negligible levels. Where previously you would see a slight audio lag in a video (e.g. mouth not syncing with voice), the Speednova in 2.4GHz mode has no such issues. I tested these earbuds in a competitive FPS with no issues. They felt almost comparable to my regular over-ear gaming headset (also using 2.4GHz).

Simply 5 minutes of charging provides 60 minutes of audio playback.

ASUS ROG Cetra in Speed Nova version are true wireless headphones that aim to better assist gamers with latency support. In addition to their gaming functions, they are also great for simply listening to music thanks to noise cancellation, and thanks to the included adapter, they are also very good for notebook PC gaming.

Video review from the channel ASUS ROG CIS

These are headphones that achieve excellence in each and every one of the sections to be evaluated in this type of product.

I really like the concept of in-ear TWS headphones that work through a dongle. It's really convenient, because you can use them with a PC at home, a smartphone on the street, and several other devices. One device for many occasions is great!

We found the battery life of the ROG Cetra True Wireless Speednova to be impressive. The headphones are very flexible: in addition to wireless Bluetooth, you can connect them wirelessly 2.4ghz via the supplied USB-C dongle with adapter. The listening experience was good, the bass has the right depth and the headset offers a very rich sound that does not lose detail, not only during games, but also when listening to podcasts.

Their customization options are really impressive and the overall sound quality ranks them among the top premium pieces.
