Logitech G Pro X Wired Gaming Headset: Blue VO!CE Detachable Boom Mic, DTS 7.1, 50 mm Drivers, USB/3.5mm Aux, Spare Memory Foam Ear Pads, USB DAC & Bag Included – Black
In-Depth Review
As a guy living in my mid-30s, I’ve been through my fair share of gaming headsets, especially since gaming has always been a big part of my life. So, I recently got my hands on the Logitech G Pro X Wired Gaming Headset, and I thought I’d share my experience with it.
Right out of the box, I was struck by the sleek design of the headset. The black finish gives it a professional look, and the detachable boom mic seems well-built—definitely a good sign. Logitech is known for making quality peripherals, so I was expecting nothing less.
When I first put it on, the memory foam ear pads provided a comfortable fit. I could immediately tell that this headset was designed for long gaming sessions. The weight felt just right—not too heavy and not too light. It hugs your head snugly without making it feel like a clamp.
Now, moving on to performance: this headset didn’t disappoint. The 50 mm drivers deliver fantastic sound quality, whether I was buried in an intense gaming session or just chilling out to music. The DTS 7.1 surround sound feature is impressive, giving me an immersive experience that really made me feel like I was in the game. Every footstep and every whisper came through clearly, adding a new level to my gameplay.
I primarily used this headset for gaming on my PC and occasionally for console gaming. The option to connect through a USB or a 3.5mm aux cable is a nice touch—very versatile! I tried it with my PlayStation, and I was equally impressed with the sound quality. The mic clarity was also mentioned by my friends during voice chats—they said I sounded clear and crisp.
Now, who is this headset best for? If you’re someone who plays competitive online games, this headset is a no-brainer. It really enhances your ability to hear opponents moving around, and the clarity of the mic is essential for team communication. Even if you’re just casually gaming or using it for movies and music, it holds up quite well.
There are always pros and cons to any product, and this headset is no exception. The comfort and sound quality are definitely pros. You can genuinely wear it for hours without discomfort, plus the RGB lighting options add some flair. On the downside, while it’s mostly a solid product, I did notice that it could become a bit warm after extended use. The detachable mic is great, but it’s also a bit picky—if you didn’t position it perfectly, it sometimes didn’t pick up my voice well.
Overall, the Logitech G Pro X Wired Gaming Headset has been a solid addition to my gaming setup. The combination of quality sound, comfort, and design makes it worth considering. If you’re looking for a reliable headset without diving deep into the premium price range, this could be it.
In conclusion, I think it’s a great buy for gamers and non-gamers alike, offering a well-rounded headset experience. I’ll definitely be keeping this one as my go-to for gaming sessions!

Perfect for casual and professional work
Pretty much a jack-of-all-trades in terms of performance, quality, etc.Does everything pretty well and has a lot of nice features like 7.1 surround and 50mm audio drivers. It comes with a carrying bag and a set of fabric ear pads in case you don’t like the leather ones (the leather ones are better IMO)The mic sounds decent, nothing to rave over but its better than most for the price.Audio quality is great, not a whole lot of bass but that’s by design. Fairly good in games like Rainbow Six Siege where listening to sounds is crucial.The one thing that could use work is the software support. Its ok, but the biggest offender is the surround sound toggles within the Logitech software. Most of the time when enabled the audio will sound tinny and distant (like hearing through a wall) basically very flat audio. Its pretty much unusable for me for 99% of applications. I have no idea if its a software issue, firmware issue, or just user error but nevertheless its something to keep in mind.Comfort wise its very comfortable even during long sessions. Its well padded in all respects.Overall, It’s a great headset with a few quirks but nothing crazy. One of the best wired headsets I’ve used to date (coming from older Astro and Turtle Beach headsets) 10/10

Fantastic sound, but be sure to set it up right.
As with most hardware with accompanying software, the software truly isn’t great. So, for a good setup, use the included DAC, install G Hub, disable side tone if you want, I did because hearing myself is disorienting, adjust any EQ levels you want, I gave it a bass boost, and then save those setting to the DAC.Then, uninstall G Hub. G Hub has issues, like when I’d try to max out the mic, since I can adjust that later through Voicemeeter, it refused to let me. It kept turning itself back down with no option I saw to disable automatic gain control, so you’re better off saving specific things to the DAC, then uninstalling it, it’s not friendly with other software.After that, you’ll have a good headset which won’t make adjustments on it’s own magically lolMic: The SE variant does have a different mic than the classic, at least different from the classic I bought over a year ago, and it does make me sound better, so that’s a nice upgrade. My voice sounds clean, and though it does pick up background noise, very sensitive, that’s easy to handle with Nvidia Broadcast, or Krisp, or any number of other noise cancellation softwares. I tried the Blue Voice thing, it was horrible, so, again, software bad.Sound: Compared to other headsets I tried before buying this as a replacement for my old Pro X that broke, most miss out on the bass and other low spots, but this covers it fairly nicely. You can adjust it later too using something like Equalizer APO. I tried a Cloud III from HyperX before buying this, wanted to see what others offered, and that thing sounded so flat, even with every equalizer I could find maxed out on the bass layered on top of each other, I’m assuming they lack the hardware, but this headset certainly delivers.Build: Most of the weak points of a headset are made of metal on here with one exception, the two clips that compress the size adjustment point, they’re plastic, and held together by two screws each. This is what broke my classic variant, and I am somewhat sad to see they’re still made of plastic on the SE’s. I plan to have my local machine shop make me some metal replacements, since Logitech doesn’t even sell plastic replacements, much less metal ones. They lasted almost a year before breaking, but they’re the exact same as on the SE’s, so I can take the ones from the broken headset for them to use in the process of making me metal ones which I will promptly swap.Overall: I give it a 4.5, mostly because my last ones broke in the way that they did, and a whole year later, that specific part is still made of plastic. I’ll make it right myself, but I really shouldn’t have to, it’s a weak point, and should be made of metal. Aside from that, solid product, best sounding gaming headset I’ve ever used.

Coming from a long-time Arctis 7/Sennheiser user, hopefully this helps clear up some of the reviews!
I don’t write many reviews anymore, and I wanted to find out myself why there were so many mixed or bad reviews. I’ve been a long time Arctis 7 user, and also came from many other headsets such as Razer BlackShark V2 Pro; including audiophile sets such as Sennheiser 598SR, Philips SHP 9500/Fidelio X2, etc. My wife got me a GPW for my bday a while back, which I’m in love with– normally I bash Logitech products/service, though I came from previous Logitech products and still use a MX Master 3 etc.Anyway, back on topic… I bought these because 1) Wireless is too clean and convenient to pass up, which is why I’ve been using my fine-tuned Arctis 7 with SS Engine EQ (even used Peace/Equalizer APO at one point). 2) I don’t like too many software suites, and wanted to stay within the GHub (haven’t had any issues). 3) I paid attention to the positive reviews for this and was super intrigued, plus I had an Amazon gift card to use, hehe.What I read about hissing and interference, and most of these bad reviews– I work in IT, and there’s a high probability of it being mostly user error. Keep in mind, this is on PC– I don’t know if there are more issues on console, etc. but pretty sure these were made for PC first. The surround sound is definitely worse than the Arctis 7, as it is very muddy. I do enjoy the auto-switching of sound profiles similar to SS Engine’s. For general use for the most part, I recommend turning off surround sound, and just running the natural “Flat” EQ– I prefer this genuine stereo sound, but feel free to mess around with other EQs. For the mic portion, I did notice slightly more static at higher gains– most mics are like this without a good DAC or sound card. I don’t use a DAC anymore, nor do I have an external sound card– I found that the “Broadcaster” and “FM Station” EQs for the mic were best; didn’t need to tweak any other settings. When I did, there was slightly more noticeable noise, but not terrible. The mic beats the Arctis 7 straight up… it’s not as terrible as what others have reported, or from some of the YouTube videos I’ve seen. Again, user error, I don’t know what extra tweaks they’re doing under Advanced settings, but using either Broadcaster or FM Station with Blue Voice enabled sounds great to me at around 88-90 gain. YMMW, and keep in mind other factors such as wireless interference, RGB lighting, etc. can all cause static, so keep that in mind and keep the dongle away from any devices that are prone to interfere; use an extension cable if you need to isolate the dongle.I mainly play FPS shooters like CS:GO, Apex Legends, and listen to a lot of music, but these are primarily for gaming. I really have no complaints, except that I wish the mic was retractable. I like my headphones more open for that nicer soundstage, so I run the fabric ear cushions as opposed to leather. I’m glad they included this because with the two pairs of Arctis 7s that I had, I purchased separate cushions for them ($25+/pair). I never used the Arctis 7 wired, so I didn’t care that the Logi’s can only run wireless. The battery life is also superior to the Arctis 7, by far; GHub also works a hell of a lot better than SS Engine, surprisingly. Again, I moved away from Logi minus their office line, and was hoping to be let down by these… but they have not disappointed. I can’t find a reason to deduct a star, and I don’t understand what these people are complaining about regarding the low volume… I’m guessing maybe they’re console, or not checking everything correctly/not using GHub properly. The volume knob has no stopping point like the Arctis 7, but the overlay is great and the dial feels good with some resistance. And who uses chat mix anyway? It’s trash and not necessary. With the Arctis 7, I also had to use VoiceMeeter Banana. Though I kinda like the SteelSeries input/output dongle/receiver, I rather have less cables; also rather not have to run VoiceMeeter Banana just to improve mic quality etc. which sometimes also caused static. The sound is just really balanced on these on all counts, and the mic is crisp and clear (a lot of the EQ profiles for the mic are meh; just use the ones I mentioned above). Also, try to keep input volume around 55-70, and boost with limiter or compression. Otherwise, if input volume (gain) too high, it’ll pick up extra background/noises.Anyway, thanks for the read, and hope this helps you guys and gals (and clears up some of the indecisiveness from the mixed reviews!). Hope Logitech keeps improving from here. Keep calm, and game on– cheers!

Se escuchan muy bien (vengo de unos audÃfonos económicos) y la transición si es abismal 10/10.Nota: si compraste tus audÃfonos y no “funciona” el micrófono, aserciorate de que los introdujiste bien, ya que yo habÃa insertado el micro pero nos los captaba el programa, pero para hacerlos funcionar tenÃan que hacer doble click al momento de insertarse (o más bien tenÃas que hacer un poco de presión para que se insertará correctamente) jaja

Em geral é um fone que cumpre o que promete e é decentemente confortável. O microfone não é ruim, tem som claro e pode ser melhorado com o BlueVoice do G-hub ; as reclamações irrompem de comparações com microfones de mesa, os quais são evidentemente melhores que o integrado do fone. A bateria é bem durável, e para meu uso, dura cerca de 2-3 dias sem recarregar. A conexão wireless é suficientemente expressiva quanto ao alcance. Compre-o, preferencialmente, em promoções.
