My favourite features of the Logitech G Pro X Lightspeed are:
- The swappable ear cushions included as standard (choices of comfort or passive noise cancellation)
- A solid headband design that includes pivot and tilt ear cups that can easily fit your head
- Both Bluetooth and wireless connectivity (though sadly not at the same time)
- 3.5mm connections on the headset AND on the wireless dongle, so you can wirelessly mic monitor and external mic or mix in another analogue source
- Good punchy bass and DTS Headphone X 2.0 as well as other satisfying sound profiles
- Logitech Blue Voice mic tech (for customised sound)
- Stylish design
- Decent battery life
The highlights of the Razer Blackshark V2 Pro include:
An impressive microphone
Lightweight headset design that makes it comfortable to wear for hours
Tuned EQ profiles for specific games as well as THX spatial audio
Earcups that block out a decent amount of noise without getting too hot
Decent battery life
Lowlights of the Razer Blackshark V2 Pro:
Lacks simultaneous dual connectivity (i.e. Bluetooth and wireless at the same time)
Earcups are scratchy

For 150 dollar cheaper im going for blackshark v2 pro 2023
Your channel is too underrated. Thanks very much for this video, it helped me a lot ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you kindly. Glad I helped
Do you plan on reviewing the HyperX Cloud III Wireless? It would be interesting to see a comparison with other headsets in this price range
Garbage if you dont live in the US, their support is nonexistant
How do the Logitechs measure up to the Astro A50’s?
A50x is what I want to see. 50mm graphene driver vs 40mm. Hmmm
if you use an external microphone with the pro x 2 to get mic monitoring, can you still use G Hub software to customize the headset audio?
Yesss
Sorry to be thick. So, I could plug a 3.5mm in to the dongle and plug it in to any USB power source and it could act as a wireless transmitter for the source connected to the other end of the dongle's 3.5mm input? Or do I need to have the dongle plugged in to the PC and the PC on??
Do either of these mics have mic monitoring? It always bugs me when I can’t hear how loud I’m being.
Yes both have sidetone
gonna get the razer blackshark v2 pro 2023🤩
hii i love ur reviews, thankyou! But i hv a question about the clamping force of both headsets, which one has a lighter clamping force?? I used EPOS h6pro and it was so heavy it hurts the top of my head, and it has a really tight clamping force it hurt my jaw so bad till i can't eat cause i couldn't open my mouth for days... i really need a new headset, pls help thankyou!
Probably Razer but neither of them have a tight clamping force. You don't feel squashed imo
@@TheProvokedPrawn thankyou so much for ur reply! ☺️
Can you use the razer mic on the Logitech with the blue voice technology? Or just buy another mic ?
kzhead.info/sun/dL18pt6Gq3iJZKc/bejne.html
Do the blackshark eq settings save to use on ps5? Or do they save for pc only like corsairs?
Have you gotten an answer because I wanna know too?
@@senanbiback7622 I haven’t 😕 but the new inzone H5s are very comfortable and sound good. I currently have those but saw that the Jbl quantum 910p’s were on sale for Black Friday $150 off. Those come in tomorrow so I’m gonna try those and return whichever is worst
Yes
IF you can get synapse to actually work...
Hey mate, do either make noise on your glasses farms? Nothing pisses me off more than a headset/headphones making noises on my glasses. I'm trying to decide which of these two I want to get myself right now. The Logitech's Mic is unforgivably bad, but I have a desk mic soooo can ignore that a bit.
ProX doesnt
g pro x2 Is eq settings saved? It's a ps5 user
I like your review! Very informative and concise. 10/10!
I bought the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro bcoz I play Fps games. Positional sound is very important in fps games obviously. 🎮
How good are m8 looking at getting these?
Hey, man. The 2023 or 2020 one ? Which one do you got?
@@Bloodstrikeable I got 2023 mate. 🍻
@@PleaseLikeAndShare001 Do you have any noticeable buzzing/white noise/static/high pitched sound playing when you're not listening to anything in the headphones? I've read that was a common problem with these headphones which is the sole reason as to why I am hesitant to buy.
@arthurmorgan8467 Hey man, I don't have that problem. Mine works as intended. I mostly play Fps game. I just change the EQ when I want to watch movies. 👌🏼🍻
I WAS FACING A DILEMMA! Your video was decisive! I wasn't exactly your opinion, but everything you stated and showed in the video was a key factor in my decision to buy one of these two! Thank you! You've earned a new subscriber.
Glad to help
which would you suggest using for console?
I can't say I'm afraid as I'm not a console gamer.
Hi,with would you suggest using for PC Games like cs go ?Tnx!
3 months late but I use the logitech one on ps5 and it’s perfectly fine
I am using BSv2 pro 2023 and I have to agree with you. It lack a bass punch and the richness of sound maybe due to openess of sound stage when gaming. EQ in synapse is needed to partly compensate that. Apart from sound quality, everthing else is amazing.
Hi, have you had any problems with static noises with your bsv2 2023? I've been considering to buy it but I keep seeing static noise problems on reddit
same with the logitech sadly...@@kalkuanchia6417
@@kalkuanchia6417update your firmware. It's been fixed
I had mine 2 weeks ago and I have this problem--actually , nearly everyone has it if they pay close attention. The funny part is no reviewer has ever mentioned this obvious problem.@@kalkuanchia6417
Does anyone know where to buy the 2023 mic for the razer?
Can you tell rusisk what is better?
Does the v2 pro 2023 work on Xbox?
No.
can you use the mic of blackshark on the Logitech g pro x2 ?
Yes!
but will it be the same quality as the razer blackshark or is it just the microphone@@Warpig9
@@JustARussianFloppa It's not as good as razer, only improves the logitech G Pro X 2. I tested both.
@@Warpig9 ah, got it
Man that Gpro mic sounds so bad.
Razer tresher had tge same feature at the dongle as the one from logitech
Does the blackshark v2 pro works for PlayStation 5 with all the functions?
Yes
Synapse cant even detect my Blackshark v2 pro headset, I tried everything. Kind of a let-down...
Razer Blackshark v2 of Astro A40's?
what game is that at 6:21
Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2019)
@@TheProvokedPrawn Thanks! It looked really good, maybe I'll buy the game and try it out.
Where can I find such a red skull ?
amzn.to/4aQs8xD
for rainbow six footsteps which one is better?
Probably Razer as it's designed specifically for competitive play
I've had the blacksharks for less than 2 months now and yesterday a piece of plastic just flew off when i put them on and made them not usable, idk if that is common with them to be poor quslity but something to consider i guess
it has warranty
@@lullaby1 yes it does, sent it back got my money back and staying away from razer products from now on
@@floor.mp3glad u got your money back :)
That's no point todays.... A lot of people broke their audeze maxwell at the had Band because of a cheap Part at the headband that is just glued down..... Youre right buddy theyre trash too, throw it in the trash and stay away from good Audio cause youre Not worth it...
or maybe these companies can just make headsets that don't fall apart instead of highway robbing us? lol They would get more sales if customers were actually confident in the money their spending on a product.@@patrickmareta8791
Nothing can beat vzr model one or turtle beach stealth pro for gaming IMO 👌
how many headset you ve tested? :))))
@@axcn4733 4,5 of the most expensive ones. Nova pro wired/wireless, h6pro, hd560s, cloud 2 etc…
Those 2, of course :))
Turtle Beach is garbage
Had the Stealth Pro it wasn’t that great! Plus a lot of quality control issues with the software
Razer best quality?
please structure your videos with marks -_-
