The review is on Roberts personal website:
Robert Oostenveld writes in his review about the Unicorn Black 8 channel :
“The Unicorn is a low-cost 8-channel wireless head-mounted EEG device developed by Gtec and first released in 2019. Gtec has been developing research-quality EEG systems for Brain-Computer Interfaces for a long time, and in recent years have been organizing a series of BR41N.IO hackathons that target hackers/makers and creative applications. I have worked with Gtec systems at a number of BCI2000 workshops, and we used the Gtec Nautilus for the Cogito in Space project (see also here) Given this background, I had high expectations for this new system and the Unicorn does not disappoint.”
We have not yet read the whole review of Robert Oostenveld, and we do not have any plans to use the Unicorn Black 8 channel EEG devices. But we only noticed that there is no support section on the Unicorn Black EEG web site, but only a contact form:

And we asked ourselves, if the support is by g.tec medical or not. We made bad experienced with these kind of contact forums, especially with the contact form of Rob, ter Horst, PhD., the Quantified Scientist. Rob ter Horst never answered to our contact requests:
