Where are the differences?

Let's take a closer look at the differences between the G PRO X LIGHTSPEED* and Blackshark V2 Pro* gaming headsets.

There is no difference in this comparison. Both gaming headsets, the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED and the Razer Blackshark V2 Pro, are from the year 2020. Thus, the technical starting point is not very different.

Connection options

Let's start with the connectivity options from Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED and Razer Blackshark V2 Pro. 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. From this comparison, both models offer the wireless connection. A wireless connection offers the advantage that the cable is not in the way. However, you usually have to rely on a battery, which can run out. However, often the wireless headsets also offer the additional option to connect the headset via cable.

Cable and battery

The end is at Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED for the 20000 Hz and at Razer Blackshark V2 Pro for the 28000 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.

Only the Logitech G PRO X LIGHTSPEED offers the possibility for 7.1 surround sound.
