2020 Christmas Buying Guide Gadget Review

Bionik Chat Mixer

Another gaming and audio gadget this time, but much like the ASUS AI MIC this augments your existing headsets with new features. Simply add this into the chain between your device and your headset cable and you can add a Bluetooth device to the mix!

It’s pretty simply, just a small controller and a USB charging cable. The battery life is huge anyway, as it’s only a Bluetooth dongle really, so doesn’t use much power.

There a master control button on the front.

Bluetooth audio volume on the right.

Game audio volume on the left.

And the headphone jack here. So what’s it really for?

Simple, just connect something like a Nintendo Switch, Xbox Controller or whatever you normally attach your headphones to into the Chat Mixer. Then you can take your Alexa, Mobile, or any other Bluetooth device and pair with it. You can then take calls, listen to music, use Discord and more with your headset. It’s a really cool feature and a cheap way to add a premium headset feature to virtually any gaming headset.

Where to Buy

It’s available directly from Bionic for just $24.99. UK stock is expected very soon, but at the time of writing, I couldn’t find it. I’ll keep checking, between Covid and Blackfriday, there’s bound to be stock issues. You can check Amazon here though.
