Logitech G PRO X Wireless Headset Review - The Truth!
For $200 I had high expectations and I'm happy to say most were met or exceeded. This headset is incredibly comfortable with great sound quality and the most stable connection I've seen on a wireless headphone. The Blue branded microphone is really good, but not a game changer when compared to ones like the Audio-Technica ATH-G1WL or even the Stealth 700 Gen 2 with regards to clarity in upper frequencies.

Incredible review!!! Thank you so much for going into so much detail in regards to the frequencies. That’s so much more important than they sound good, or bad, and loud and soft.
Yes!!! Thank you!! The low sound was such an issue, this fixed it and I've been looking around for an answer everywhere! Thank you so much, I almost returned them but was dreading it because I liked everything else about them. Thank you again, I'm keeping them now!
Great video my Man! In depth, very thorough and informative. Yours is probably the 6th video I watch aimed at the GPro X and this is at the top. I also heard about the issue on the cords breaking after a sort time of use but that comes down to factory error and that's always up to chance. I hope mine wont break and It will serve me well for years. Thanks again for the review and keep up the hustle! Subbed!
DUDE im so glad you brought up Peace i just found out about it recently and it makes a world of difference!
Thanks a lot for this review, you mentioned a lot of details I wanted to know that are not mentioned in most reviews.
Great review. The tip about "peace" really helped me out big time!

I have used Astros for a LOOOOOOOONG time. I still have a gen 2 Mixamp Pro TR and a set of A40's. That being said, I just went through a terrible experience with their "support". They have switched over to an email only system. So, if your headset isn't working, you will wait 2 days for a response. The resource that got my ticket put in troubleshooting steps for A50's but I have A40's so there is another day. Seemed like he was just copying and pasting stuff for recommendation without actually reading my questions/response. After his 3rd response he gave up. Basically said he had exhausted all steps, the headset was out of warranty and here is a link to buy a new one. No loyalty program, no offer for a % off, no suggestions to rollback drivers, nothing. If this would have been a better experience I would have stuck with Astro and ordered the A50's Funny enough I think Astro is owned by Logitech now. So in a round about way they are still getting my money as I just ordered this G Pro X wireless headset.

I have a pair of LucidSound LS15X off your recommendation. I haven't regreted that one bit either. You're one of the only ones who really realize how good of a sound they put out. That being said, I'm switching to PC gaming, from my xbox. The LS15X's work on my PC, but I lost Game/ Chat mix capabilities. Still amazing sound, but here in lies my question: Are these comparable sound-wise to the LS15X's? My A40's aren't, neither are my SS 7X's. I want to buy a PC gaming headset to get the chat/game function back, but I'm nervous I'll be in trial and error all over again, especially since the LS15X's were so good. If not these, what else? Great review again btw. Your channel is supper underrated, actually your ear is!

Thanks, Joe. Great review. Not a gamer but looking for a good wireless headset that won't break my bank - with good mike audio. However... real question... what is your mike & audio setup? What a great warm audio sound you have on your YT track. I know the good voice does much of the work, but there's such excellent sound quality here, it stands out from the sea of tech-videos. Have you done any YTs about your setup? I'd me most interested to know the full setup, sure others will too. Really impressive, and a terrific presentation style. 👌 Cheers and all the best
Thank u very much for your review, I just bought mine. If I may ask, do you suggest any pre EQ config for everyday use?

How does it work on PlayStation 5? Do I need the cable to get the best sound?
Bought these headphones about a year ago and overall, I love them. The only issue I have ever had was the lack of footstep tracking while in FPS games. Other gaming audio was great but footsteps were horrible. I watched some of your other videos and found GG Sonar from SteelSeries which works with this headset and was able to improve footstep audio tremendously. I have the wired version and the EQ is just 5 bands and is basically useless for tuning. For the price though, I am pretty happy with them now, just wish the GHub software was as good as the GG Sonar from SteelSeries for controlling footstep audio.

Equalizer APO & Peace don't work right with the Logitech G PRO X Wireless. When I install all of that and setup just a +6 gain, I lose any sound in games like PUBG if someone is coming up from behind me. It also makes my mic sound like trash. When I uninstall both EQ APO + Pease, my mic sounds great, I get back the simulated surround of someone being behind me in games... but I just don't get the boosted volume. I tried changing the sound channel setup to "stereo" rather than the default 7.1... but no luck. I will have to seek out other solutions for upping the preamp that ONLY does the preamp without messing everything else up.
this headset has a few complaints about its clamping force, it hurts my head if its on too long and with it not being open back that can be a pain too just a heads up to anyone looking to get it
Thanks for the review! I'm currently looking at wireless headsets for PC. I'm curious if you've used a Logitech G935 and would be able to give a comparison. From what I can tell they seem to have a lot of the same components mostly just different style, but I'm unsure. Any thoughts?

Are there any headsets that do a good job with simulated surround sound?

You take a deeper dive than most tech channels out there. I was also kind of disappointed in the mic quality.

It turns out Blue never made the mic, they only licensed the software. It explains why the mic sounds similar to other Logitech headsets and isn't a class leading headset mic. Most gaming headsets do better in stereo mode, but Atmos and DTS can help (DTS requires a special sample rate setting for it to work). The best wireless headset mic I've heard is the Stealth 700 Gen 2 from Turtle Beach.
Hey man I bought the headset recently... Have you tried setting your advanced speaker properties to 16 bit, 32000 Hz (FM Radio Quality) I believe that fixes the surround sound problem that you're talking about. I am no audiophile I am wondering what difference in Quality does it do? I am a competitive guy when it comes to CS:GO I prefer losing that quality for the surround sound advantage but I don't notice any difference anyway. I wish I know what Audio settings does S1mple use since he uses these headset as well...

Let me offer to you what worked for me with no distorting of audio or adding gain at the preamp level. Hope this will help if you still have the headset. 1. Completely uninstall both applications and remove all of their configs. (Equalizer APO and the add-on, if installed) 2. Reboot just to be safe. 3. Install ONLY the Equalizer APO. When going through the setup, be sure to select that you want to use it on the G Pro X Wireless, and that it's set as the default audio device. 4. Launch a game that you were having low audio issues in and see if it sounds significantly louder. Those are the steps that worked for me. Seems like just installing Equalizer APO for the headset causes it to sound the way that it should out of the box, not thanks to Logitech. None of your EQ settings or anything from the G Hub app will be impacted, and no functionality is lost, which is absolutely wonderful. Prior to me doing this, I would have volume at 100% in RDR2, and it was the equivalent of any other headset I've used set to about 40%. After, running at 90% is uncomfortable for me when there are gunshots. 70% is about where I like for it to be if gaming causally, 80% is perfect for when I want it loud lol. I hope this helps you!

A nice middle ground is the Drop PC38X or EPOS H6PRO and either use your built in sound card or a good middle ground card like the EPOS GSX1000 or Creative G6. Just something to consider!
My truth about them. Coming from the wired version, Logitech G Pro X, I have noted the following: The build quality doesn't feel as premium as the wired version, the wireless feels more clumsy. The sounds... Oh boy, the sound doesn't even compare. The wired is way superior. I was expected the sound to be at least the same but I came to realize that the wireless output is about half of the wired version. It's true you have way more bands to customize the EQ on the wireless but you're never able to achieve something comparable with the wired version. The Logitech DTS is pure garbage. You can substitute it with DTS Sound Unbound but in order to do that, you'll have to uninstall Logitech drivers and replaced them with some generic audio driver. This means you lose all of the G Hub perks. (if you can call them perks) The microphone is ok, though my friends notice a downgrade while using it. (coming from the wired version). Overall, I would suggest against this pair of headsets, unless you really want something wireless that looks alike G PRO.

I dont like it either, flat bass, bad individual, and not loud enough. It sounds like theres something blocking the sound

Would you go with this or the astro a50 gen 4?

A50 Gen 4 has a better mic but unless you need the extra features of the base station the Pro X is a better value. The Pro X does not work on Xbox if that’s an issue for you.

@@erikjoyner7767 you bet! The Pro X was a little. It more comfortable for me between the two but I didn’t experience the same discomfort you had mentioned. It’s been a while since I’ve used them though so perhaps I forgot!

I can't use dolby atmos or DTS in win10 with this headset. Do you know why?. Thanks nice video.

You should turn it on through Windows 10 settings - right click on speaker icon -> open audio settings -> device properties under your headphones and here choose DTS (not by right clicking on speaker icon and trying to choose DTS directly from here ;)
how loud can the sidetone get?

It's not as loud as Astro or Turtle Beach but it's not bad. I think it's more limited by the mic quality at that point.
Not good build quality, sorry - the plastic joining the ear cups to the headset will break after around 12 - 18 months (twice now), and I do not treat them particularly roughly - this could have been easily fixed by Logitech using something other than plastic to hold it together. Feels like a deliberate flaw given how easy it is to fix. Not recommended for quality and use reasons (too many bugs with too many games).
WARNING!!!! the plastic part does break easy after a couple of month's of use or less trust me mine broke after like 6 months of use. and i heard allot of people had the same issue. but great review though. but everything else is build great.
