An open electroencephalography (EEG) dataset is presented for evaluating consumer-grade EEG devices in comparison with a research-grade EEG device. Datasets were collected from 30 participants using four consumer-grade EEG devices (BrainLink Pro, NeuroNicle FX2, MindWave Mobile 2, Muse 2), including two single-channel headsets (BrainLink Pro and MindWave Mobile 2), and one research-grade EEG device (DSI-24). Each participant completed four experimental paradigms: eye blinks, jaw clenching, head movements with eyes open, and head movements with eyes closed, with the resting-state EEG data recorded before and after each task. The dataset enables the validation of device signal quality, the assessment of neural features such as alpha-band activity, and the examination of robustness to movement-induced artifacts. The dataset is publicly available on Figshare.
