Editor’s take
In favor
- Truly wearable: ~60 g (up to 32 ch) including battery
- 24-bit; same BrainVision Recorder + .vhdr stack as Brain Products' stationary amps
- Onboard microSD enables fully untethered recording
Against
- Sample rate capped at 1 kHz (vs 100 kHz on stationary actiCHamp Plus)
- ~4 h battery on internal cell
