JBL Quantum One vs Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED - Where are the differences?

Let's take a closer look at the differences between the Quantum One* and G PRO X LIGHTSPEED* gaming headsets.

What year are the headsets from?

The release year is of course important when comparing two headsets. After all, the release date has an influence on the state of the art and usually also affects the price. There is no difference in this comparison. Both gaming headsets, the JBL Quantum One and the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED, are from the year 2020. Thus, the technical starting point is not very different.

Connection options

Let's start with the connectivity options from JBL Quantum One and Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED. Both give you the option to be wired. A wired connection reduces connection problems and interference, which is an advantage. In return, the cable can possibly interfere.

Radio offers the disadvantage that there can be interference in the verdinbung. In addition, with radio you are usually dependent on a battery, which can also go flat during use. Only with the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED* do you get the option to connect wirelessly. This is not possible with the JBL Quantum One. However, often the wireless headsets also offer the additional option to connect the headset via cable.

Cable and battery

In this comparison, only the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED has an integrated battery. The Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED has a battery life of up to 20,0 hours.

Audio

Both gaming headsets have a driver of 50 mm and thus do not differ. The bigger the driver, the better and louder low frequencies can be reproduced. However, it depends on more factors and can therefore only be taken as a small benchmark.

The frequency range starts at 20 Hz for both models. The end is at JBL Quantum One for the 40000 Hz and at Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED for the 20000 Hz. What is really important here is the range between 50 Hz and 10,000 Hz, which is covered by just about every headset nowadays.

The higher the impedance, the more power a speaker can produce. Also the sound becomes clearer. With a value of 32 Ω both models are equal here.

7.1 surround sound is offered by the two gaming headsets from the comparison.

Microphone

Of course, both headsets have a microphone built in, which is also adjustable. Additionally, the microphone can be detached for both the JBL Quantum One and the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED. If no microphone is needed or the headset is to be transported, this can be an advantage.

Both microphones have a frequency range which starts at 20 Hz. The microphone of the JBL Quantum One ends at a frequency range of 40000 Hz. The frequency range from the microphone of the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED ends at 20000 Hz.

Volume control and mute

Almost every gaming headset offers the possibility of volume control and mute. So it is also in this case.

Which headset has more features?

Finally, let's take a look at the equipment. Here, some models have lighting. This is where the two headsets differ. Only the JBL Quantum One has an illumination. However, this does not necessarily make the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED worse, since it only has optical effects.

Furthermore, some headsets have freely programmable buttons, as is also known from gaming mice or keyboards. But you have to do without this for the JBL Quantum One and Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED.
