  They fit very well. The sound quality is great and so far i have not had any issues. Set up was very easy and they connected pretty quick to the PS5.

  The A20X headset feels lightweight and comfortable on my head. The compact design sports a flexible detachable boom mic, RGB lighting on both cups, and multiple connectivity options. Wireless options include a Lightspeed USB dongle or Bluetooth. The headset can also be used tethered via USB. The headset is compatible with Xbox, Windows, Switch and PS5. It can also connect to mobile devices through Bluetooth. The ear cups feature a wireless connection button, Bluetooth button, volume rocker, power switch, mic mute button, and two user sound mode buttons. All buttons are easily findable and accessible during wear. The Lightspeed wireless USB dongle is larger than the typical small USB pluggable format. It plugs into a USB-A port on the device and has two separate USB-C output ports for Xbox/USB and PC/USB. Either port can be used for Switch or PS5. Status LEDs indicate which connectivity option is in use. The headset also works through Bluetooth, which I was able to easily connect to my PC using the cup mounted Bluetooth button. Both the dongle and Bluetooth have been reliable on console and PC with no noticeable latency nor loss of connectivity during gameplay. The headset can also be paired with multiple devices and quickly switched as needed. Sound quality on both Xbox Series X and a Windows gaming PC is great. The drivers have good clarity and volume. Bass is acceptably deep, and treble and mid are sharp and clear. Sounds are nicely isolated during gaming with distinct background and foreground separation that helps add to the overall immersive effect. Sound effects are accurately reproduced and sound realistic compared to real-world counterparts. Music sounds fantastic as well and can be enjoyed without compromise. There is no ANC but the cups block out a decent amount of environmental sound. However, if the environment is loud, it will bleed through. Mic quality is excellent. Remote parties say I sound clear and a voice recording playback confirmed this. My voice is clear, decipherable and has good volume. The detachable mic is flexible and has a red LED indicator that illuminates for visual confirmation when the mic is muted. Comfort is excellent for the most part. It is lightweight and never feels heavy or hot during wear. The soft foam padded cups mostly stay cool and have good breathability, but do get lukewarm occasionally. Never warm enough to be uncomfortable but warmer than the other areas of my head. The foam lined top headband is also comfortable and adjustable. I have a large round 7¾ hat size head and the headset fits me perfectly, even when wearing my thick or thin frame glasses with the headband at the default largest size. Battery life has been solid so far. I’ve been gaming off and on for several hours at a time over several days with the RGB enabled and haven’t had to recharge the headset yet. The headset recharges via USB-C when necessary. The G20X is a great midrange headset. It’s not quite as robust as its bigger sibling Pro X2 headset, but is a very nice and capable headset at a friendlier price point. It’s perfect for most home gaming needs and our household has had good success with Logitech Lightspeed G series headsets the past 5+ years. My daughter refuses to use any other brand or model after finding the “perfect” G series headset years ago. I’ve purchased it twice for her so far and it gets extremely heavy use every day. It almost never leaves her head when she's home but it has proven durable and worthy of the task. There may be some short-term early adopter pains because this headset is so new. For example, I mention the two mode buttons above in a generic manner because I have no clue what they do or whether they even work yet. There is zero online documentation available for this headset at the moment. Scanning the QR code inside the box currently returns a 404 page not found error. The headset also won’t connect to the G-Hub application because the software doesn’t detect the headset when I plug it in. I am unable to find any additional support options or software for this specific headset, but that should obviously change after the official rollout. Aside from the currently limited support options, I have no complaints with this headset and I like that it can connect to any of my devices. I’m accustomed to being forced to choose specific headsets for Xbox or PS5. It's great to have one that can seamlessly switch between the two consoles.

  Comfortable and customizable

  Included- The A20 Lightspeed headset, Boom mic, Playsync base, 2x- USB-C to USB-A cables The Astro A20 Lightspeed Wireless headphones is a great gaming headset. First of all, the comfort and fit are designed well. The headset is very lightweight at just over half a pound. With option of it being wireless, you have the freedom to sit and game where you want since you're tethered with a wire. But there is the option to play while wired with the USB C cable that is included depending on your gaming needs. The battery life boasts up to 40 hours.   The Astro A20 Lightspeed Wireless headphones offers a few ways to customize your headset for the best experience. You can customize the colors for a personalized look. The 8 zone LIGHTSYNC design on the headphones is fun and cool. You're trule able to rock your own style. The 48 kHz high-resolution detachable microphone is a bendy, pliable arm that is easy to adjust in and out, up or down. I like that there is a small red light so you know the mic is on. You can also customize the audio on the headset using the G Hub and G Mobile app. I found the sound with 40 mm PRO-G Audio Drivers to be clear and crisp.  One great feature of the Logitech G Astro is that it will sync to two different gaming systems. It is compatible with PS 5, Xbox X, Xbox S, Nintendo Switch and Windows. So you all you have to do simply tap a button and it will switch to the other gaming device you have the headphones paired with.  One drawback I personally see is the size of the headset does not adjust enough for me. There's just two settings and switching the comfort band to one or the other is hard to believe that it's universal in size to fit everyone. While the suspension band is very comfortable and keeps the plastic off your head, I wish the size could be adjsuted more. The ear cups are large and completely cover my ears without pressing into my head and bothering them. I don't like a smashed ear, especially over a long time period.  The Logitech G Astro A20 X LIGHTSPEED is a great headset to own. They're very comfortable and offer customization which I appreciate.
