Logitech also has a community platform, which allows you to download community-made sound profiles. For players who don’t want to tinker with these settings, there are a number of preset profiles, including some based on popular esports pros. It includes EQ and a number of advanced settings generally reserved for hobby-grade mics, such limiters to suppress unwanted background noise and compressors to regulate the volume of your voice. Blue Vo!ce includes EQ options, presets, and filters designed to enhance and customize how your audio sounds. SoftwareUsing Logitech G’s configuration app, G Hub, you gain access to sweeping controls to customize the headset’s EQ, virtual surround sound, and unprecedented controls for fine-tuning the sound of your microphone using Blue Vo!ce control panel. That suggests Logitech’s estimate may be a bit generous, but not wildly far off. Anecdotally speaking, I found the headset could last through a long day of work and gaming – 8 to 10 hours – but needed a charge on day two if I didn’t charge it overnight. According to Logitech, the fully-charged Pro X Lightspeed should last more than 20 hours – that’s as well or better than most of IGN’s top wireless headset picks. Last, but not least: Let’s talk about battery life. The connection is generally very stable: I didn’t experience any dropped connections, lag, or lost audio.

This kind of connection tends to be more stable and introduces less lag than a Bluetooth connection, which may explain why Logitech didn’t support both connections.

The Lightspeed Pro X connects to your PC exclusively through a 2.4 GHz WiFi connection via a USB dongle. That means you’ll need to use two USB ports on your PC to charge the headset and use it at the same time. It’s worth noting that plugging in the charging cable does not enable a wired audio connection, as it does on some headsets. On the left can, starting just beneath the fork, you’ll find a mute button, volume wheel, power switch, USB-C charging port, and the detachable mic.

The hardware-based controls and ports are actually where you see the biggest changes in the Pro X Lightspeed. The design also has its disadvantages, though, as my colleague pointed out in the original Pro X review, the forks do not have any kind of swivel mechanism, so you can’t lay these headphones flat against your shoulders or on a desk. That is, in part, a testament to the fine-tuned band design, but also of the large, well-padded memory ear cups, which are slightly bigger on the Lightspeed. And yet, the band still presses down with enough force to provide strong passive noise canceling. The cans fit flush against your head and stay in place, without creating an overtight “clamping” feel against your temples. The headset looks like a piece of premium kit because it’s constructed from durable materials: The handband has a steel core and the forks connecting the band to the cans are made of aluminum.

Where many gaming headsets are made to reflect the flashy “gamer” aesthetic, there’s a subdued, classic elegance to the Pro X Lightspeed. It has the same minimalist, studio-style design: The cans are covered with matte black plastic with silver discs, and black leatherette covering the headband and ear cups. Design and FeaturesAt a glance, the Logitech Pro X Lightspeed looks identical to the standard Pro X – just without a cable.
