Q: For this price point, will it tell me how great i am even after i’ve completely botched the game?

A: No, but with the crystal clear side-tone you can whisper sweet nothings into your own ear while you play.

Q: Why do you state that the headphones will be ready today, when in fact you have oversold the product, creating false promises so that customers are now waiting on the product rather than if they had bought elsewhere before the product sold out?

A: I agree! I paid around $10.00 extra for shipping because they quoted that it would arrive on 02/22/2024. However, yesterday I received an email informing me that there is a delay. Now, it will be delivered on 02/24/2024 (hopefully). What was the point of paying extra for shipping then? Unacceptable!

Q: Can this over charge or charging station will automatically shutdown

A: Yes, the Logitech Astro A50 X LIGHTSPEED charging base station is designed to prevent overcharging. Once the headset's battery reaches full capacity, the charging process will automatically stop.

Q: Do these connect to both PC and Xbox simultaneously like the original Astro A50s? I know they work with all systems, I’m just wondering if I can listen to my music on pc and play on my xbox

A: With Bluetooth it should connect to your phone so you can stream music that way at the same time. It cannot connect to pc and Xbox at the same time though since it can only toggle between both. So the only combination possible is (console+ Bluetooth)

Q: Does this work with the nintendo switch as well? A50x doesn't show anything about it, but the Astro 50 does.

A: The Astro A50 X is compatible with the Nintendo Switch. You can connect it via Bluetooth to the Switch and enjoy wireless audio. However, it's important to note that the A50 X doesn't support the PLAYSYNC feature, which allows you to switch between multiple devices directly from the headset.

Q: Is it glasses friendly because I wear glasses and I want to know

A: I usually wear glasses when I game and there’s not a lot of head pinching going on and I have a pretty big head, I think they would be great for you

    Amazing sound quality and comfort!

    Amazing sound quality and comfort! These headphones exceeded my expectations. The sound is clear, powerful, and immersive—perfect for gaming, music, and movies. The bass is strong without overpowering, and the noise isolation really helps you focus. They’re also very comfortable, even after long hours of use. The design feels premium and sturdy, and the charging stand is super convenient and keeps everything organized. Battery life is great, and the connection is stable with no issues. Overall, this is an excellent value for the price. I would definitely recommend these headphones to anyone looking for quality, comfort, and great performance.

    Astro A50X: Next-Level Gaming Audio!

    The new Astro A50X have completely changed the way I game and create content. The sound is insanely clear—deep bass that doesn’t drown out details, and in shooters you can hear every footstep and gunshot with perfect precision. The built-in Dolby Atmos makes the experience even more immersive. My favorite feature is the base station with HDMI passthrough, which lets me switch seamlessly between Xbox, PlayStation, and PC without unplugging a single cable. Just one button and I’m set. That’s a game changer no other headset offers right now. Comfort is top-tier. The ear cushions are soft, breathable, and stay comfortable even after marathon gaming sessions. Battery life is solid, and since the headset charges while docked, I’ve never had to worry about running out mid-match. The mic is crystal clear with excellent noise rejection—perfect for streaming or team chat. In short, the Astro A50X isn’t just a headset—it’s a premium audio system for serious gamers. If you want pro-level sound, cross-platform convenience, and long-term comfort, this is the one to get.

    A50X Lightspeed

    Amazing headset, super comfortable with amazing battery life and great audio. The Logitech app is nice and user friendly. Overall this is the best headset I’ve ever owned but the problem is I’ve had this headset for just over 5 months now and either the base station or the power cable itself seems to have crapped out. Naturally Logitech doesn’t sell replacement base stations or power cables, you have to replace the entire unit as a whole. I reached out to customer support and created a ticket and if approved I will be receiving a whole new headset entirely instead of them just replacing the base station and power cable. So good on them for that as long as they approve the claim but overall sad that a $400 headset could possibly only last a few months before something breaks.
