Oh no i dropped my gamer headset pro#

Lightspeed (opens in new tab) is a proprietary wireless 2.4GHz tech usually found on the company’s mice and keyboards. But that’s less of an issue these days when it feels like I’m in at least three video conference calls every day for work. Normally, I’d be worried about losing the mic after unplugging it during some downtime when not working or gaming. But keep in mind they need to be plugged into something via a USB-A port to work, so you aren’t likely to use them with your phone. It’s easy enough to pop off, which can come in handy if you just want to use these as headphones. The mic itself is an old-school bendy, removable affair. Additionally, if you prefer something more breathable on your ears than leatherette, the company also includes a pair of velour earpads in the box. Having thoroughly dated myself with the above description, I’ll summarize by saying that Logitech has done a good job of adding just enough understated style to keep these cans from looking bland, and the whole package feels like about as solid as you’d expect from a $200 headset.

Logitech G Pro X Wireless Lightspeed (Black) at Best Buy for $229.99 (opens in new tab).In keeping with that aesthetic, there are also exposed coiled wires running to each ear piece that look like old-school telephone handset cables. There’s a forked metal headpiece that’s comfortably covered in a faux-leather material, which reminds me of high-end headphones from the 1980s.

Instead, you get classy spun-metal pieces on the side of the earcups with a two-tone chrome-and-blue-gray finish. And unlike most gaming headsets, there are no RGB lights or even any aggressive styling here. The Logitech G Pro X headset definitely looks and feels like a high-end device. But, of course, they cost more, use standard Bluetooth, have a shorter 13-hour battery life and don’t come with Logitech’s suite of gamer-focused features.

My Bluetooth-based Sennheiser Momentum 3 (opens in new tab) headphones are much more comfy for long-term listening. At 0.7 pounds, the cans feel a bit heavy and tight on my (admittedly big) head after hours of use. There’s a lot to like here.īut at $199 (opens in new tab), they’re also priced for the “pros.” And while the headset is generally comfortable, I take issue with Logitech’s “ultimate comfort” claim. A followup to the wired Logitech G Pro X model we looked at (and liked) last year, the wireless Lightspeed version features 13-plus meter (42.7-foot) range, Logitech’s low-latency Lightspeed tech, 20-hour rated battery life and - oh yeah - great sound, thanks to 50mm “hybrid mesh” drivers. Are you after a set of wireless gaming cans that are more class and less gamer-aggressive RGB explosion? Then Logitech’s G Pro X Lightspeed Wireless might be one of the best gaming headsets for you.
