German company Speedlink is about to bring their own gaming flagship gaming mouse towards the US market, one that is arguably over-saturated. However, as times have shown again and again, there is always a little more space for some products that manage to distinguish themselves in the consumers' eye.

To that end, Speedlink is putting up its Omnivi gaming mouse up against the very best and most renowned in the industry, sporting an ergonomic, polarizing design that is meant to either work or not at all for its prospective users. This means its curves and body design are crafted in particular ways in an effort to provide superb grip and feel - to a limited set of right-handed users whose hands adapt to the mice as it was designed. Like all specific designs, it risks alienating part of the potential user base who simply doesn't possess the physical and hand posture characteristics that best work with this mouse; this being the reason why so many mice have rather "neutral", non-contoured designs - in an effort to appeal to a larger potential customer base.

SPEEDLINK focuses on in-house creation with its new STRIKE NX gamepad. The new gamepad will replace the very successful STRIKE FX and will be available in both wireless and non-wireless models for PC and Playstation 3. Alongside new technical developments, the gamepad has also been given a totally new look. The model for PC allows users to switch between XInput and DirectInput, meaning new and also older games can be optimally supported and played.

SPEEDLINK has left nothing to chance with the new STRIKE NX. The new gamepad is an in-house creation and fits even more snugly in gameplayers' hands than its predecessor, the STRIKE FX. To achieve this, a completely new model was created which delivers both maximal ergonomic quality and ensures that users can comfortably reach all buttons. At the same time, intuitive operation of the two highly accurate analog sticks and touch sensitive buttons mean users feel real control. And thanks to its intense rumble effect provided by the vibration function, STRIKE NX makes for thrilling gameplay.

Jöllenbeck GmbH is continuing to expand. Selected SPEEDLINK products are now available in North America through the wholly-owned subsidiary SPEEDLINK USA, INC. The products are available from Amazon and the electronics retail chain Fry's, among others. Owner-run Jöllenbeck GmbH from North Germany continues its growth course with its own brand SPEEDLINK in 2015. The peripheral manufacturer, who is already exporting to more than 40 countries worldwide, will also be available in North America from now on. In April, the first gaming products will be available from Amazon and in the electronics retail chain Fry's. These include the well-known MEDUSA gaming headset in different versions and the innovative gaming mouse KUDOS Z-9, which is equipped with a free app for smartphones and tablets. North America is a very attractive market for us which offers great potential in the area of PC gaming. I am convinced that we can also excite the Americans for SPEEDLINK with our innovative products", says Tim Joellenbeck, president of SPEEDLINK USA, INC.

Speedlink announces the Kudos Z-9 gaming mouse. Speed is the key: the KUDOS Z-9 responds to your commands with no delay and gives you a considerable competitive speed advantage over your opponents. Customise your KUDOS Z-9 Gaming Mouse with its easy-to-use and extensive programming function to suit the way you game.

All this is rounded off by the KUDOS Z-9 Configurator app, allowing you to easily customise your driver settings - without sacrificing precious gaming time calling up the driver menu. The effects of changing are felt instantly. Among other things, the self-explanatory interface lets you switch profiles, assign keys and adjust the sensor resolution, paving the way to victory.

Speedlink rolled out the Decus Limited Edition gaming mouse. This right-handed, palm-grip mouse is characterized by lit-up cuts on its body, with a multi-color LED lighting that's programmable by software. This software also lets you program up to 5 macro profiles onto the mouse's 128 KB onboard memory. The mouse features a total of 7 programmable buttons. Under the hood, is a 5,000 dpi optical sensor, with an on-the-fly resolution adjustment, which lets you adjust tracking resolution between 400 and 5,000 dpi. A 1.8 m long braided cable, and rubberized body, make for the rest of it. The Decus Limited Edition is priced at 39.99€.

At this year's gamescom in Cologne, Germany, SPEEDLINK will again be focusing on dedicated gaming accessories. It'll also be presenting not just one, but two new mice: the PRIME Z-DW and KUDOS Z-9. Last year the German company presented its first complete gaming line-up - this year the focus is on new innovative products for gamers.

PRIME Z-DW Double Wheel - For even more commands
The second scroll wheel turns the new PRIME Z-DW into a truly innovative weapon. Besides the programmable buttons the additional scroll wheel can also be fully customised with many performance-enhancing assignments such as powerful commands and complex macro sequences using the accompanying software.

The warm season is just around the corner and the first rays of sunshine have awoken a zest for summer. To mark the start of the summer months SPEEDLINK, the specialist in audio systems, is launching not one but six new Bluetooth speakers. They're available in a variety of colours, form factors and performance classes, for a truly melody-filled start to spring. Thanks to these cordless marvels of sound, this summer music lovers will always have the right soundtrack available to suit any situation. Thanks to the speakers' integrated rechargeable battery all they need to do is charge the speaker and take it with them to enjoy their favourite songs and summer hits wherever they go - whether hitting the beach, taking a romantic stroll or at a BBQ with mates. Enjoy the wireless soundtrack of YOUR life!

The SPEEDLINK brand is steeped in tradition, and with the CUBID, XILU, TOKEN and GEOVIS it is proving that its portfolio doesn't just include incredible 2.1 sound systems and headsets. The first Bluetooth speaker, the XILU is available from retailers now and has already been awarded a 'Good' rating by German website Macwelt. In doing so it joins the ranks of SPEEDLINK's multi award-winning speaker series. The CUBID, a similarly compact yet powerful speaker, has now also been added to the lineup. Thanks to its integrated microphone, this speaker can also be used as a hands-free device. The TOKEN boasts more volume and is the perfect mobile companion thanks to its ultra-grippy rubberised finish. What's more, up to eight devices can be connected to it simultaneously. This makes switching between sources a real breeze plus it lets different devices take their turn playing DJ to supply the tunes. The TOKEN is available in the colour combos of white/red or black/red. The GEOVIS is available in three colours (red/white, grey/white and black/grey) plus its additional base membrane delivers thumping bass.

- Last year SPEEDLINK presented its first full gaming line-up. With two new mice and three keyboards the gaming line-up was impressive, both technically and visually, with its consistent red/black design. The new CONIUX gaming headset also features this red/black design, slotting perfectly into the existing gaming line-up. SPEEDLINK has long since established itself as a leading headset manufacturer with the now globally famous and renowned MEDUSA headsets - with the CONIUX it now offers a headset that is outstanding value for money (RRP €29.99) which will also delight newcomers. The CONIUX is incredibly comfortable and extremely effective at shielding out background noise - enabling gamers to immerse themselves fully in their virtual world and, thanks to the CONIUX, forget about the limits of time and space.

Red/black design, sleek yet premium: this is how SPEEDLINK presents its new CONIUX gaming headset. The gaming headset is ultra comfortable thanks to the earcups' high-grade padding plus its low weight of 230g. In addition, its closed-cup design means background noise doesn't stand a chance of getting through. Equipped with a sensitive microphone, the CONIUX offers crystal-clear voice transmission. What's more, the mic is also flexible. The stereo audio with its thumping bass and voluminous sound is perfect for any situation. Friends won't feel left out either during intense gaming sessions or while listening to music as the mic lets the user chat to them between sessions via Skype, ICQ or Yahoo. Regardless of which one is preferred, the headset is compatible with all popular platforms.

SpeedLink launched its Parthica Core gaming keyboard. Built with common membrane keys, the keyboard features a plethora of macro, multimedia, and shortcut keys in addition to main keys that are back-lit in three colors, and labeled/dimpled in a way that makes it easy for gamers to push the right keys. The keyboard also offers anti-ghosting and 6-key rollover. It uses software to map macros, although it doesn't feature any local storage for your key maps. The company didn't reveal pricing or availability details. Watch the video after the break.

Christmas is getting ever closer and SPEEDLINK already has some great gifts in store weeks before the holidays. The new core-gaming line-up was announced at this year's gamescom - and the products will be on sale earlier than expected, with the first of the new gaming products available in just 14 days.

Following the highly successful KUDOS RS Gaming Mouse, the XEOX Gamepad, the XANTHOS and the legendary MEDUSA Gaming Headsets and the REPUTE Gaming Mousepad, SPEEDLINK have now also released their first range of gaming keyboards plus additional gaming mice.

It's the epitome of immersive gaming sound: the MEDUSA range, which revolutionised PC gaming audio with true 5.1 surround sound. Now SPEEDLINK is opening up this sound experience to the console gaming world. Following the successful launch of the stereo model for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, the range of console sound solutions is now crowned by the multi-compatible MEDUSA NX 5.1 Surround Console Gaming Headset featuring true-to-life surround sound.

As you'd expect, the latest member of the legendary, multi award-winning MEDUSA family produces incredible sound. It also lets you determine precisely where sounds are coming from thanks to its eight integrated driver units - delivering a decisive tactical advantage in multiplayer games and a surround-sound experience that will blow you away.

SPEEDLINK, specialist in high-quality and stylish sound solutions, presents its very first circumaural stereo headset that's also perfect for mobile use with smartphones: the AUX.

Notebooks, tablets and smartphones make music and digital communications portable. This new freedom and the increasing variety of sound sources call for a totally new generation of headset. The AUX Stereo Headset from SPEEDLINK is the perfect synthesis of a set of stylish headphones and a convenient microphone headset - and connects to practically any device thanks to its ingenious cable system. It connects to smartphones like the iPhone and Samsung Galaxy series - and an ever increasing number of notebooks - via its conveniently short cable featuring a 4-contact 3.5 mm jack plug, while a really long adapter cable is included featuring standard headphone and microphone jack plugs for desktop PCs. This means the headset is always there when needed, yet it can be connected in seconds when at home.
