I like that you don't overhype products in your reviews. It's incredibly common to see these so called reviewers praise every product beyond measure. Thanks for being real!
Yeah, that mic is unacceptable compared to corsair's and razer's or even steelseries' mics
Same
I'll just chime in after trying these for a day (desktop gaming). Right now they're a massive step down from the 1st Gen Wireless Pro X I've been using (which I'll be comparing this to). The out the box sound quality is significantly muddier (especially in the mid range). The advanced EQ adjustments (through G Hub) just aren't there at launch, so you're forced to work with basic sliders that don't resolve any of the audio quality problems. The passive noise cancellation of the earcups isn't any better. And the mic is still trash (and unchanged!) after so much backlash/feedback. It's a joke of a headset for $250.
Super disappointing. I'd wait 6 months to see if they iron out the software/driver issues before trying, but tbh if you're looking at this just buy the Gen 1's they're cheaper and sound better (or offer more flexibility for tweaking).
Worst reviewer by far is Spawnpoint. He literally gets on his knees the moment he receives a piece of overpriced tech from any company.
@@lingonberryjam320 My jaw dropped when he switched to the Razer mic, holy moly the difference is night and day!
Thank you for the mic comparison, your videos are a great point of reference for gaming headsets
lighting and video quality is absolutely unmatched! Dmitry, thank you for many years of top notch content!
Thanks thanks 🙏
-D.
@@HardwareCanucksdoes g pro 2 connect 2 devices at same time like ps5 and phone on same time ?
I sometimes feel no company WANTS to build the perfect wireless pair of headphones. There is always something broken about it leaving the user jumping to the next promising device, and the next after that. And the manufacturers benefiting overall, from the high-end user seeking perfection. The game is rigged. 😄
ikr 😂
you'd think that by now some manufacturer went rogue and said "fuck it, i'm gonna check all the boxes this time"
Thank you for the video, good comparisons ! I just got this headset and I realise why my friends say my mic sounds bad lmao. RIP them I guess because I love the audio and comfort it offers, also they say they're getting used to it after a few days anyway. It's not a good mic, but it's also not bad.
Yeah the comfort and audio is a huge improvement over the original. I say keep it and just live with the mic.
-D.
great review thanks! yeah im getting these soon they seem awesome! :) happy holidays soon everyone!
I bought the Logitech G Pro X2 and am delighted with the quality of these headphones. I was looking for something that would work for both PC and Switch gaming and am very happy with them.
Great review thank you! Definitely reconsidering on the microphone quality, such a shame, everything else seemed so good.
Great review!
Just a quick question:
Will I be able to connect this headset to my GOXLR with a 3.5mm cable? I don't want to use the wireless feature, but not sure if that is the only option.
I would be nice to get a wired version with the same driver and ergonomics updates but lower price.
Hi man, nice review!
Do you prefer this one or the astro a30? Thx!
Great review. Just one question. Since the microphone is detachable, can't I in theory switch it out with a better one?
Vitosha mountain at the back, sick intro ;D
Can the microphone of the Logitech G Pro x 2 be changed with the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro microphone? Or is there no difference because the headsets have an audio chip that controls the microphone?
I am not sure if the mic capsule was the issue, I have a suspicion that it is how the wireless transmission was handled, is there a way to test if that's the case? Is there a wired mode? Can it work in wired mode?
Wow what a review.subscribed !
You literally have answered everything I wanted to know
How are you tuning the EQ on the headset to be usable?? I fixed it but reinstalled windows, now have no idea how I fixed it in the past.
can you go over your EQ settings for cs? i just got some and i feel it is a little muffled! great video as always
Suggest me some tws in terms of ensuing sound quality, super active noise cancellation, voice clarity and the balance between high and low end and mids. Which one would you like to prefer for buying a budget tws for both listening music and calling features?
Hello, if you use the jack cable, do you need to turn on the headset ? Do you need to charge it too ?
Have you tested the Logitech/Blue Ice Pop microphone that you can get for the G Pro X and X2 Lightspeed? Does it bring the Mic quality on par with the competitors?
Hey. Nice comparation. Please can u tell me where can i buy those earmuffs for steelseries ???
Thought about switching to this but dayuum after hearing about the mic I'm having flashbacks to the many replacement mics I had to buy for the original. Just got the Virtuoso xt after watching ur vid on the base one then seeing all the versatil connectivity options and better mic. G715 somehow seems weird lol
I am looking for an audiophile headset that also comes with a mic that doesn't totally doesn't break the bank. Is the sound quality good for simple music enjoyment with depth? My other option would be the Drop x EPOS headset, as well as the Audeze Maxwell but that's a bit much for me. I am also interested in something by seinheisser and sacrifice the mic but get a big bump in quality.
Does only I have or it is normal for those headsets? My left adjustment hinge is a little bit weak than right hinge? I returned it to store and get new one but it is almost same. Left hinge is a little bit weaker than right. It should be like that?
As an owner of the GPro wireless you sold me on this one now to save or wait for a sale, cause with a mic like that, I feel that 249 is a bit much! Great review as always :)
I swapped the mic boom from my old wired gPros (blue voice model) when I upgraded to the wireless GPro (x1) and there was a noticeable improvement. If you already have the GPro wireless and get these I recommend testing both mics in case one sounds better.
This is why I am a separate mic and headset guy. I have had the same mic for about 10 years, a Yeti Blackout Edition, and have gone through multiple headsets in the same time for a fraction of the price.
what's your current setup?
@@SuperUltra_
Cheapest Mic arm I can get with the Blue Yeti Blackout Edition (had planned to upgrade to Pro and XLR but a ton of stuff happened and they stopped making it in between) And currently I am using the Oneodio duo input headphones (if you need a larger headset don't even buy them) and until recently a set of open back cans from a knockoff brand and now I am looking at getting a pair of Sampson Semi-open headphones.
On the software side I have Ear Horn and Sound Switch to manage my audio better and control my sound outputs better.
I just wish they would make open-back audio quality wireless headphones. I hate being tied down, especially after years of not having a cable. Wireless is all closed-back, so people can use them in public. I really don't care about that. So gaming headsets and not using the mic it is...
I would love to have separate headphones and mic, but being in University and having to move in and out during the years, gaming headset has been more convenient
@@nevcairiel Same, I don't like the sound of closed-back headphones. One problem is I suppose is how to make wireless headphones open and fit a long lasting battery inside of it.
can you replace the mic or will that not effect anything?
The mic test is very much appreciated!
With slight differences in price based on black friday sales , which WIRED headset would u recommend between G Pro X , HS80 and the cheapest being Razor V2 X , for ps5
for valorant what do you recommend around 150$? i cant decide, hyper x cloud alpha s or cloud 3 or this or beyer mmx100 , dt 770 pro 80ohm
so if i think that the virtuoso SE of Corsair is tooo quiet than i am going wrong with this one? how is the Music and loudness compared to the audeze Maxwell?
In comparison to Logitech g535, is it worth another 100$ ? I have seen on rtings that g535 has higher sound quality even thou they are much cheaper ? Thanks for any info. Also what headphones would you buy in 2024 for listening to music and gaming.
I have a question about this headset. How good is the seal on the earmuffs? Can you hear outside noise or is it completely blocked out? Grateful for any reply :D
Hey,
Stupid question here, but can i chaghe that mic with another one, still connecting it to the headset?
Can I still use the usb external soundcard from the previous Pro X model and put it on this one?
Awesome review. What do you think of the Logitech for music or movies?
Please also review, if possible, the Hyper X Cloud III, really looking forward to it, thanks.
cant wait for a translucent one to pair with my x2 superclear!
what eq preset do you use or do you make a custom?
I use a external yeti mic so I’ll be buying these, thanks for the review and info!
Can I use same headset for playing game and answering phone call sometime? Similar like playing and chatting in discord without shutdown game sound
The Verge PC-build never escapes the internett, huh. 😂
What do you recommend, for people that have already an micro?
My only question is can I use it with my Xbox. Like at least the wired version of it and just use wireless for my pc. Will it save my custom EQ’s for when I play on my Xbox too.
In your opinion what would be your choice between baracuda pro vs logitech gpro x2.
Had the HyperX's, SteelSeries Nova Pro's, Razer's hs, nothing compares to this ones. Im literally Stunned how great of a Headset X2's are from literally any aspect.
Sound is impeccable, Battery is insane ,im currently on 6th day of use in intense Gaming and Music and im left with 60% battery, the Graphein thing is something i thought will not play any rule but hell i was wrong.
This are the only gaming wireless headset i could recommend to anyone and stand behind that strong feet XD
You think it got better sound than the blackshark v2 pro
@@GunlogicsTV I had the blackshark v1 headset, not the v2, so this might not be the same, but they were so overwhelmingly uncomfortable, I had to return them.
Dimitri, the microfone sound is not identical, seems an like the noise is louder with the new one, nothing major but your video shows it
Is the surround better than previous versions?
I use the original G Pro X headphones (wired) and the mic is phenomenal with Blue voice (most people complement it) so what happened when they went wireless??
Can you actually change the microphone as long as it's a 3.5 or does the software reject it?
thanks for the review, always nice to see Vitoshka :>
What kind of connector does the microphone have? Can you replace it?
For me I have a pro microphone so I’m only looking for the headphones. What is the best?
What about testing with the additional blue microphone
Are you able to replace the mic and put in something with a higher quality?
Damn, now I am struggling if I should get these or Steelseries arctic nova pro's. I hade EPOS H6PRO before and I had them on max volume and it was not loud enough, I am afraid that Logitech would be the same.
Good review, hopefully they fix the microphone in the next version. This is unacceptable at that price.
Or how about they just release an updated microphone capsule for a few sheckles and NOT make us spend another $250 for the next headset. Its just a simple plug-in mic after-all.
@@matt.gillispie That would be dope if they offer a better quality one and ALSO update the current headset to be paired with that better one for new buyers! At that price point it should be offered with it for sure!
Any chance you could review the Audeze Maxvell pls?
I agree! I appreciate the "real" attitude; telling us both what is good and not so good, and what is bad. I don't feel like I can trust opinions when the product is hyped up....
hows battery life ? is it 50 hours or 20 hours ? after about 2 years of using the first version of these i got less then 16 hours.
Why is there no review on the Audeze Maxwell? I would love to see that.
Hi, can you review NZXT H9 flow case?
Between these two, edifier wh950nb and logitech g pro x, which one should I go for?
My computer dosent have a Bluetooth chip can i still use this ones to my PC with the dongle?
how about the range if i walk downstairs and there is a concrete between will it scuff the audio like in version 1
Very good review thanks! Out of curiosity, what if you had both, could you use the razer mic with the pro x 2 and get a really good outcome?
Not sure it fits, I haven’t got the g pro x2 but the GPro x1 has a cutout for the mic so it would depend on whether you could get a different mic to fit in the slot
I still use the very first G PRO. It's always been a very comfortable, light weight and good quality gaming headset with great positioning. But Soundblaster z just brought it to a completely different level. I don't think I would be able to use build-in sound card ever again.
Z SE ?
How are they compared to CORSAIR VIRTUOSO XT Wirelress?
wonder if u could just plug some third party boom arm mic into the port...
How would you compare this headset with the most recent astro a50?
Can you just plug in a better microphone to raise audio input quality? or is the problem not solved that way?
Will you try the Audeze Maxwell?
What would you say is the best settings to have the headset?
I’d love to see a comparison between this and the Astro A30!
which one is better steel series artic nova pro or this one?
Can you connect a different mic to the headphones? :D
Which one is the best? This one or razer blackshark v2 pro 2023?
It looks like you can buy a different mic for the logitech headset. Good idea or no?
Hopefully they come out with a Non wireless version only too.
Can u just put the BlackShark V2 Microphone in the Logitech Pro X2?
Is the sound quality then the same?
I'm wonder. Do we get Wired version for G Pro X 2.
Hey, I found a pc37x headset for 80$. Do you recommend me to buy it?
And i am pc player
the jump from the Pro X2 to the Blackshark V2 Pro and HS80 is fucking insane XD
I enjoy my hyper x cloud alphas wireless, 300 hour battery in them is amazing. Sound is good , microphone is good to but i hardly use it. They are probably not the best at comfort.
Is that in Sofia during the clips with you walking outside? 🤔
Is the mic detachable?
Perfect. I already went out of my way to buy a microphone and a boom arm so my heart did sink to my balls when I heard the audio quality on some of those other headsets but it seems my money isn't really going to go to waste afterall.
Hmmm thinking if it is worth upgrading from a G935 probably not right?
You shoudl have a look at the Audeze Maxwell's. They're great!
Where can I buy these steelseries pro pads?
Is the mic removable and replaceable with something better?
So is the microphone identical to that in the original G Pro X wired version? Granted, out of the box its trash but with some tweaking it sounds excellent (as good as, if not better than the Blackshark example you gave)
hi there! what tweaking did you do for the mic? I'm looking at getting this headset and my bf always complains my mic is trash 😂
was hoping there ll be a audeze maxwell review here
Would like to see a review on the Audeze Maxwell Wireless, RTINGS rated as the best gaming headset, it has planar magnetic drivers and a decent mic and 80hr battery life from the other reviews I watched, would love to see your review on it.
Yeah really want to see one of the bigger channels review the maxwells. Not sure why since I already have them and love them, just need someone to tell me I made the right choice haha.
@@jht8367 I would buy them already but they are out of stock everywhere, if theres a bigger channel that reviews them then I'd preorder. btw hows the mic? It sounded pretty decent from what I heard, wondering if it can replace my bulky mic
Can you do a review for razer blackshark v2 pro too gonna compare with this
but, can you change the mic with a diffrent one?
looking to swap to these from the arctis nova pro, i cannot understand what steelseries thought when they went from the earcup size of the arctis 7 to the nova pros, its like they halved the inside volume, the top of the inner cushion pushes down on the top of my ear and just below it, it also pushes my earlobe up, either they made it for the head and ear size of a 10 year old child or forgot to scale it up from their design program, i shouldnt have to shell out 400 usd for the headset, THEN 50 dollars to get cushions that make them possibly usable
I got the G Pro X 2 Lightspeed a couple weeks ago. Its a very good headset. The sound quality sounds the same if not better than my old G Pro X wired headset. The microphone sounds the same as the old wired one, which is impressive for a wireless headset. None of my friends noticed a difference over discord that I was using a different headset.
Did you see any downgrade from G Pro X wired headset? Plan to upgrade my G Pro X wired headset to Pro X 2 lightspeed.
Bro... Just how? My mic on GproX2 is awful with ton of settings and EQ attempts. GproX mic is way better
I have enjoyed your video and willing to ask you something regarding the headset. I do you use Apple Airpod pro version 2 and suddenly I want to change the my tws and convert it from TWS to a headset for better sound quality. so please let me know if I go and get the Logitech g pro x 2 over Airpod pro 2 . Is it worth enough to listen music and purpose?
Don't buy gaming headsets if you want good sound quality
