I had the A50s that lasted me since 2013. I am hoping these last me just as long lol I love that this headset has a seamless connection between my Xbox and PC. Super simple to switch over. My voice sounds crisp and the sound is awesome.
That's incredible to hear about the longevity of your previous A50s – a testament to their durability! We're equally optimistic the Logitech Astro A50 X LIGHTSPEED will provide years of outstanding performance. It's truly fantastic that you're enjoying the seamless transition between your Xbox and PC, along with the pristine voice clarity and immersive audio quality. Your satisfaction with its advanced features and robust sound profile is exactly what we aim for.

Overall really great comfortability and sound quality. My only problem with them is sometimes the hdmi will mess up and turn my monitor off mid game which can be frustrating.
Thanks for the honest and balanced review! It’s great to hear the A50 X delivers excellent comfort and sound quality—definitely a win for immersive gaming. That HDMI issue sounds frustrating though, especially mid-game. Hopefully future updates or tweaks can smooth that out. Appreciate you sharing both the highs and the hiccups!

For a headset that was egregiously priced higher after only being out for a year. Which is odd that the gaming industry is the only industry to increase price in such a short amount of time after being sold to the public. The headphones immediately sound absolutely perfect. Although the last gen headset sounded kinda funny when you put the mic up to your mouth it sounded like your a helicopter pilot. Although the comfort is not all there i had to buy after market headset pads to are cooling gel and much kinder on the ears. I like that you dont have to connect the base station to a laptop to do firmware updates it can get updates via wifi in the dedicated app (super cool). Now the biggest grip and the reason why i have rated these headsets so low is that if you plan on hooking this uo via hdmi for that 24 bit audio instead of usb for that 16 bit audio get ready to have the worst experience ever not only do they not provide you with an hdmi cable to even attempt this you have to make sure you get the most new version of it hdmi 2.1 when using in xbox series x ina 4k samsung tv switching between a streaming app or game will cut the aufio and visual for either 1-10 minutes and no amount of updates has fixed said issue. I would imagine after a year and probably not being the only one experiencing this they would figure out a way to fix this i have found ways to help mitigate the frustrating transition but nothing permanent as is to switch between sources eventually getting back to xbox on the base station..
Absolutely! The Astro A50 X LIGHTSPEED sounds like a winner for your Xbox and PS5, offering easy switching, amazing sound, and comfortable wear. Enjoy! Wondering about the LIGHTSPEED wireless reliability on both consoles.

Great headset if you have multiple gaming systems. I’ve been able to take advantage of it having it hooked to my PC, PS5, and Series S all at once and switching audio between them is a breeze. The base station is great and consistent it passes video and audio 4k 120hz through HDMI is makes it great for the price. 4K 120hz hdmi audio adapters are pricey. Would definitely recommend. It’s comfortable and never have to charge because it rest on the base when not in use.
We're delighted to hear that you're enjoying your ASTRO A50 Wireless Gaming Headset with PLAYSYNC Base Station! It's designed to provide a seamless, high-performance audio experience across multiple gaming platforms.

LG OLED HDMI Deep Color Issue

I have the fix for this… Except it’s going to cost you an extra $97…
To make the A50X work with “older” LG tv’s you have to disable HDMI Deep Color in the LG settings. However, in doing this you lose the full bandwidth of HDMI 2.1 and everything that comes with it; 4K 120FPS HDR, ALLM, VRR etc. If this is acceptable for you, you can disable this feature and it will work. If not, here is the solution...
In order to keep HDMI Deep Color enabled along with all the capabilities it provides, you have to place an HDMI 2.1 splitter between the A50X base station and your TV. This gets you around whatever issue currently exists between the base station and TV’s direct connection. The link below is to the splitter I used. It’s not cheap, but cheaper HDMI splitters/switches often lie about their bandwidth capabilities and likely would cause other issues, if they worked at all. I can confirm, I am currently using the below splitter with the Astro A50X base station, and an LG C9 OLED with HDMI Deep Color enabled and have complete HDMI 2.1 bandwidth/functionality with my PlayStation 5.
Once you have the splitter, you will connect your source (PS5/XBOX etc.) to the corresponding input on the A50X base station, then the base station’s Output to the Input of the splitter, and then one of the Outputs of the splitter to your TV. **Be sure to use certified HDMI 2.1 cables for all connections. As a bonus, this splitter also has the ability to split audio out over optical, so you could also choose to connect your source to an AV system/sound bar with an optical input.
Admittedly this is not the ideal solution, but until LG and/or Logitech develop a fix, this is a much cheaper alternative to getting a new TV. The audio and microphone quality and the base station HDMI switching capabilities of the A50 X, for me, are exceptional enough to warrant the cost of this work around while waiting on a firmware update to natively correct the issue. Hope this helps!

Despite its minor HDMI Deep Color limitation, the Astro A50X offers excellent audio, comfort, and features. A splitter provides a workaround for full HDMI 2.1 functionality.

It’s been so long since I had Astros. This headset made me ask why did I stop using them. It’s basically the same as the regular Astro A50s with an additional input on the base station. Having more than 2 consoles connected is great to have and the sound is fantastic compared to my previous headset (Razer Blackshark V2). I would suggest if you want the cheaper route, go with the A50 instead. But with a PC and 2 consoles, it’s convenient to play anything at any time in one location.
I would recommend this to a friend

Thrilled you're back to Astro & loving the A50 X LIGHTSPEED! PLAYSYNC is a game-changer, and the sound is fantastic. While the A50 is more affordable, the X LIGHTSPEED shines for multi-device setups. Enjoy!

The astro a50x are amazing, the setup is a bit extensive but they are seamless, the sound quality is amazing and they are by far the loudest headset ive ever had, i had the arctis nova pro's and i breifly tried the turtle beach stealth pros and all though the novas are a true competitor the a50x are second to none, and you have the option to easily pop off your ear cover and put new ones on like the wicked cushions, you dont need any tool of any kind because theyre magnetic, if you want a top quality headset the a50x will not let you down at all
Thank you for the fantastic review! We're thrilled the A50 X LIGHTSPEED headset has exceeded your expectations in sound quality, comfort, and ease of use. Your detailed feedback is truly appreciated and helps others discover its top-tier performance.

I never invested too heavily on a headset, but never went too cheap either. Was recommended the A50X by a friend and I cannot believe what I was missing out on with a very quality headset.
Dolby atmos license is included, great dock, long battery life, great audio quality. I would purchase the A50X again without any hesitation.
