While many of us will purchase the XPG EMIX H30 and SOLOX F30 from our favorite online retailer, if you happen to find the headset in an actual store, you’ll find plenty of information on the package to know exactly what you are looking at. The front of the box doesn’t give you too much information, just an overview picture of the H30 and F30. If you flip the box over, here you will find the details of the features.
