Overview

Wireless gaming headset with base station

Logitech's multi-platform wireless gaming headset: its base station charges the headset and switches audio among three connected systems. Unlike the A50 X, it does not switch video.

  • Three-system switching

    Three USB-C ports on the base connect a PC, a PlayStation or Switch, and an Xbox at once, and a button on the headset switches between them.

  • Charging dock

    The headset clicks magnetically into the base to charge, so it is ready between sessions; it is rated up to 24 hours per charge. The base needs its own mains adapter, which is included.

  • 48 kHz flip-to-mute mic

    The boom mic records full-bandwidth 48 kHz audio and mutes when flipped up. Reviewers found it unusually good for a gaming headset.

Bluetooth in the base

Bluetooth is built into the base station, not the headset. It mixes a phone or other device into the game audio at home, but the headset has no Bluetooth away from the base.
