A cable-free classic
Fewgaming headsetsweave together top sound quality, sustained comfort, and clean mic input as deftly as the Logitech G Pro X Wireless. As such, it usually costs a bundle, but withPrime Big Deal Daysadministering some cuts, it’s going cheaper right now. Alotcheaper: on Amazon UK, it’s down to£110, a full 50% off the RRP. Amazon US, meanwhile, has it down from $230 to$130.
The Logitech G Pro X Wireless is, you will surely be shocked to hear, the wireless version of theLogitech G Pro X. Former hardware ed Katharine (RPS in peace) called the latter the best gaming headset of its time, noting the comfort of its velour-adorned earcups, which can pump out rich, detailed sound even on the default settings. Katharine’s dead now – to us – but the G Pro X and G Pro X Wireless live on as ideal examples of headsets done right.

The only potentially non-excellent thing here is the battery life. 20 to 23 hours from typical usage is fine, but I’ve personally become accustomed to the 300-plus hour uptime of myHyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless(which isn’t on sale, tragically) and am not sure that I could go back. If you haven’t been spoiled as such, though, don’t let that put you off; the G Pro X Wireless sounds just as good, if not better, and certainly has a superior mic to the Cloud Alpha Wireless.
