Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Headphones Review

These headphones have a warm sound profile. You can fine-tune their sound to your liking using their companion software's graphic EQ, which, as of firmware 1.1.2, can save your EQ settings to the wireless dongle for gaming with PlayStation consoles. Here's a graph showing a comparison between some of the EQ presets .

These headphones come with two different sets of pads that can change their sound profile. Our sound results reflect the leather padding, but we've also tested the frequency response using the cloth pads. Using these pads results in a lot less bass and recessed lower-mids. Vocals and instruments sound weaker and are nudged to the back of the mix. The treble range is largely consistent with the leather padding results, though.

When comparing the frequency response using the dongle and wired analog connections , the dongle produces a weightier low bass. However, the wired connection has a much more bassy boom, while dialogue and instruments sound slightly thinner and are nudged to the back of the mix. Besides a narrow peak in the low-treble range that's more exaggerated in wireless mode, leading to harsher harmonics, the rest of the treble range is fairly similar, and overall, you can expect dull and weak highs.

The frequency response consistency is disappointing, but it's mostly an issue if you wear glasses. Glasses wearers will notice a significant drop off in bass response because the earcups won't form a tight seal with your head. Otherwise, the frequency response consistency is pretty good, regardless of the size of your head or the length of your hair.

The Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED have excellent bass target compliance. They have a touch of extra bass across the entire range, which adds extra thump, rumble, and punch to your audio. There's plenty of warmth and boom, emphasizing footsteps and other sound effects in action-packed games like VALORANT.

The Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED have excellent mid-range target compliance. A small dip in the low-mids and a peak in the mid-mids keeps dialogue sounding clear and not muddy, while a small dip in the high-mids weakens vocals and instruments slightly. However, in general, the range is amazingly well-balanced, so dialogue and instruments alike are rendered accurately and with detail. Sound effects don't drown out voices in dialogue-centric games like Disco Elysium.

The treble target compliance of these headphones is decent. The entire range is underemphasized, with a couple of notable dips in the low treble and another dip in the mid-treble. As a result, vocals and instruments are veiled, while sibilants like 'S' and 'T' sounds are a little dull. However, some listeners m

The Logitech G PRO X 2 have a satisfactory peaks and dips performance. The bass and mid-range regions are well controlled, but the headphones have some difficulty controlling their frequency response in the low- and mid-treble regions which can render sibilants like 'S' and 'T' sounds dull or piercing depending on their pitch.

These headphones have alright stereo matching between their left and right drivers. The drivers are very well matched in terms of phase, but a bit less so in terms of amplitude. Objects that should be centrally panned, such as voices in stripped-back ballads, sound slightly pulled to one side. Unfortunately, given that there are issues across the entire frequency range, most sounds aren't accurately represented in the stereo field, which can make it tricky to identify objects in the stereo field, such as enemy fighters.

The group delay performance is good. It's a little high in the bass range, but it doesn't affect your audio much in practice, so bassy sounds like 808 kick drums have plenty of punch. Meanwhile, group delay throughout the mid-range and treble is basically nonexistent, meaning that sounds like percussive transients are reproduced accurately.

These PRTF measurements indicate a reasonable amount of interaction between your audio and your pinna, but these headphones still lack the qualities of an angled reference speaker. Audio sounds like it's coming from inside your head, and isn't very immersive.

The Logitech PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless have excellent harmonic distortion performance. You can listen at loud levels without fear of your headphones adding distortion artifacts to your audio.

These headphones don't require an amp to drive them and can play back audio at high listening levels on mobile devices.

These headphones are compatible with DTS Headphone:X 2.0 via their companion software designed to make your audio feel more immersive in surround sound, but its effectiveness is bad. Unfortunately, using this feature makes the bass sound boxy and nudges voices to the back of the mix, and trebly sounds come across as harsh. On the upside, sounds like footsteps are better centered in the soundstage, so they're more accurately localized than when the feature is off.

You get a few virtual surround options labeled as Entertainment, Gaming, Sports, and DTS Super Stereo Mode with some presets. Also, there's a visual representation of each virtual speaker, which you can individually customize the volume of. However, playing with these settings didn't improve the boxy-sounding default virtual soundstage.

Some users have also reported issues with the audio enhancement on Windows 11; even if you turn the feature off, it turns back on upon rebooting your computer. By default in Windows 11, 'Logitech HX2E Surround Sound Effect' is enabled and automatically re-enabled when the PC is awakened or turned on and re-connects with the headphones. However, if you disable Surround Sound in the app but leave the Windows Audio Enhancement on, the frequency response is affected, which can be annoying. This Reddit thread provides a fix, but it's important to note that this issue isn't necessarily specific to Logitech; audio enhancement is always enabled by default for any newly connected audio devices in Windows 11. We tested these headphones on a Windows 10 PC, so we didn't experience this issue. We also verify that this feature is disabled when testing.

These are the settings used to test these headphones. Our results are only used in this configuration.

The Logitech G PRO X 2 look similar to their predecessor, the Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset . They have a metallic accent on each ear cup with the manufacturer's logo at the center. Unlike their predecessor, they also have swiveling hinges, which helps the cups accommodate your unique head shape. They come in three color variants: 'Black,' 'White,' and 'Pink.'

The Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED feel very comfortable. They come with two pairs of memory foam ear pads: one set is cloth, and the other is leatherette. The headphones don't clamp too tightly onto your head and won't apply significant pressure if you wear glasses. The ear cups are spacious and have good depth, and the hinges on the yoke give the headphones a better range of motion to fit your unique head shape. Unlike their predecessor, these have ear cups that can rotate flat if you want to sling them around your neck, and they're slightly lighter.

The Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED have simple controls. They're all located on the left ear cup and are easy to use. There's a button to turn the headphones on and off, an infinite volume wheel, and a mic mute button. A red indicator tells you when you're muted (but you have to remove the headphones to see it), and it has differing tones to let you know when you've changed the mic mute setting. The volume wheel also has a chime to indicate max volume, though there isn't one for min volume. It's easy to move the control wheel when adjusting the headset accidentally, so you'll want to be careful when touching it. There are no additional controls for playback like play/pause.

The Logitech PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED aren't very portable, but that's normal for gaming headphones. They're big and bulky and take up a lot of room, whether you leave them on your desk or couch. You can remove the boom mic to streamline the headset's shape somewhat. The cups can swivel to lay flat, but that doesn't make them smaller in footprint.

These over-ears come with an average-sized, soft cloth pouch to protect them from dust when not in use. It has a zipper to keep the pouch closed, but it won't protect the headphones from water or impact damage.

The Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED have great build quality. They're made of steel, aluminum, and plastic, making them feel solid. They also come with two pairs of differently covered memory foam ear pads—cloth and leatherette. While the previous Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset 's yoke-only design was an issue as it could break over time, this model's hinge puts less pressure on the yokes and allows them to pivot to fit your head better. However, we don't know if this design holds up over time. You can see a side-by-side comparing both generations here .

These over-ears have a fairly stable fit. They'll stay in place while you're gaming at your desk or couch. However, if you move around a lot, they can easily fall off your head.

The Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Headset has poor full range noise isolation using their leather padding. They rely on their passive capabilities to block out background sound. As a result, they don't isolate you from any of the low rumble of car engines from an open window and have a hard time reducing ambient chatter. On the upside, they do a better job of cutting down the high-pitched hum of computer fans.

If you're using the cloth ear cups, you'll get even worse noise isolation. You can see a comparison between the leather and cloth padding here .

They also have a hard time isolating you from common scenarios. You'll hear most of what's going on around you, whether you're on an international flight, walking down a busy street, or working at the office.

These headphones have an okay leakage performance. Leakage is mostly concentrated in the mid-range, which sounds full-bodied. If you're gaming with the volume cranked up, others around you can hear it.

With the Blue Voice feature disabled, the boom mic's recording quality is okay but is a step down from their predecessor. While you'll still be easily understandable, your voice sounds closed off and unnatural. If you want more control over your mic performance, Blue Voice includes tools like a de-esser, compressor, and limiter.

We also tested the microphone's performance with Blue Voice enabled. Subjectively, your voice sounds more bassy and robotic with this feature enabled, likely due to the software's filtering and noise reduction algorithms.

The boom mic's noise handling performance is outstanding and significantly better than the Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset . The mic can separate your voice from background noise very well. Even if you're talking near an open window with a lot of noise outside, it almost completely cuts background sound, ensuring your voice sounds clear and easy to understand.

The battery performance is outstanding. The manufacturer advertises them to last 50 hours continuously, which is much longer than the Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset . We measured 97 hours, though, which is significantly higher and not much less than the 123-hour battery life of the HyperX Cloud III Wireless . However, the manufacturer doesn't elaborate on how they test for battery life, and it can vary depending on several factors, including volume level. They have an auto-off timer to conserve battery life, and you can adjust the timer in the app. There's no quick charging function, so once you drain the battery, you'll have to wait roughly 2.5 hours to recharge the battery completely.

The Logitech G HUB software offers an outstanding amount of customization features. You can access a graphic EQ and presets or select user-made presets to customize their sound. You couldn't transfer EQ settings from the PC to PlayStation consoles upon launch. However, as of firmware 1.1.2, you can save your EQ settings to the wireless dongle for PlayStation 4 and 5 use. Just select 'update on-board memory (DAC)' in the software, and the EQ settings will transfer when you plug it into a PS console. In addition, you can adjust the mic and master volume, use the surround sound feature, and tweak the sidetone. You can also check the headphones' battery life.

You'll find the Blue Voice feature in the Logitech G HUB software to adjust the mic. It includes features like a de-esser (meant to minimize sibilant sounds), adjustable noise filters, a compressor (for evening out the levels if you speak at inconsistent volumes or place the mic far away), and a limiter (which helps if you're prone to distorting by speaking too loudly, setting the mic too close to the mouth, or both).

With the update to firmware 1.1.2 on the headphones, we've received reports of decreased perceived loudness and performance issues with their sound. We tested their performance with various applications and devices (including PS5) on both their dongle and Bluetooth connections at typical listening and max volume. We didn't encounter performance or notable decreases in maximum loudness throughout the testing. We also verified that their frequency response behaved identically from firmware 1.0.3 to 1.1.2.

On version 2025.3.696161, the G HUB software automatically enables Audio Enhancements for the headphones in the Windows sound settings after restarting the application (or through reboot). There are community workarounds that involve editing your registry, which you can try out depending on your comfort level.

Unlike their predecessor, these headphones support an analog connection and come with a 1/8" TRRS cable. However, you'll need to turn the headphones off to connect via analog. A USB-A to USB-C cable is also included in the box, but it's only for charging and updating the headphones.

The headphones have decent Bluetooth connectivity. One of the biggest changes in performance compared to the previous Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset is the added Bluetooth compatibility on the Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless. Disappointingly, you can't use Bluetooth and the wireless dongle simultaneously. You can't use Bluetooth or the dongle at the same time as using an analog connection, as this wired connection requires the headphones to be off to work. The headphones also don't support multi-device pairing.

Using a Bluetooth connection on a PC results in somewhat high latency, so you may encounter syncing issues between your audio and video. Because the Logitech G PRO X 2's codec support doesn't include higher quality codecs like aptX Adaptive that can adjust to minimize latency, the headphones are most useful for listening to audio when connected over Bluetooth. That said, some apps compensate for latency differently.

The Logitech G PRO X 2 have excellent wireless connectivity via their dongle. Latency falls within good levels, ensuring that your audio and visuals are synched while gaming.

The Logitech PRO X 2 can connect to PCs via analog, Bluetooth, and non-Bluetooth wireless with full audio and mic compatibility. However, you can only use one connection at a time.

You can wirelessly connect these headphones to PlayStation consoles via their dongle and have full compatibility. You can also plug their analog cable into your controller's AUX port for full audio and mic support. You can also save your EQ settings on the PC to the wireless dongle for use with PS4 and PS5.

You can only plug these headphones into your Xbox controller's AUX port via analog. On the upside, you'll have full audio and mic support.

These headphones come with a wireless USB dongle, allowing you to use the headphones wirelessly on PCs as well as PlayStation consoles. The dongle has a port that lets you connect a device like an iPod (or any audio device with an output jack) to it so you can play external audio when using it.
