The ultimate multiplatform gaming headset
Logitech G Astro A50 X Review • Instant platform switching
Logitech’s PlaySync tech lets you change console connections at the press of a button.
• Base station
A solidly built charging port to sit next to your TV.
• Superb audio
40mm Pro-G drivers make bass tones sing. ✔ A multiplatform dream.
✔ Extremely comfortable.
✔ Superb microphone ❌ Tedious set-up.
❌ Odd mic arm You regularly switch between platforms while gaming The Astro A50 X makes hopping between consoles and PC a breeze with its PlaySync tech. Other headsets offer comparative audio quality, without the PlaySync tech, at more attractive price tags. Logitech G has made no secret of the Astro A50 X’s intended audience. This is a swish, premium headset with superb audio performance, a robust mic, and comfort for days. What sets the A50 X apart, is its swanky console-hopping functionality. This is a truly all-in-one headset that will see you right for watching films and playing games of any variety. If you’re not likely to take advantage of that, though, then the Astro A50 X’s main attraction will be wasted. For serious eSports players, consider the AceZone A-Spire.
