Logitech G, a Logitech (SIX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI) brand and leading innovator of gaming technology and equipment, today announced the launch of the newest version of its acclaimed headset – the Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED wireless gaming headset. Designed and tested in collaboration with the world’s best esport athletes, the new PRO X 2 headset features the all-new revolutionary PRO-G GRAPHENE audio drivers, making it the must-have audio accessory and a must-have headset for the most demanding and competitive gamers.
« The core philosophy of the Logitech G PRO series is to create equipment that meets the demanding needs of professional esports athletes and competitive gamers, » said Chris Pate, Product Manager of the Logitech G PRO series. « With the PRO X 2, we’ve taken our PRO-G transducers to a whole new level of performance by redesigning them with PRO-G GRAPHENE technology. The use of graphene allows us to create a speaker that is both incredibly rigid and, at the same time, exceptionally light. Professionals get high fidelity sound with extremely low distortion, giving them the performance they need to reach their full potential.
In esports, clarity of sound and communication are critical factors affecting victory. Being able to hear every sound and communicate with your teammates makes all the difference. The new PRO-G GRAPHENE audio transducer has been precision engineered with a 50mm graphene diaphragm and our exclusive live edge suspension to deliver immersive soundscapes like never before. This new transducer improves sound reproduction accuracy, signal delay precision and distortion reduction. This allows players to more clearly identify sound elements and more quickly discern their location as they move relative to the player.
Going further the PRO X 2 features major improvements over the current PRO X wireless gaming headset, including:
- Reliable Connections – Be prepared to handle any situation with improved LIGHTSPEED wireless, Bluetooth and wired (3.5mm Aux) connections. LIGHTSPEED now offers PRO-quality wireless connectivity, with up to 50 hours of use on a single charge and a robust wireless connection range of up to 100 feet.
- Award-winning PRO design – Designed for, and in collaboration with, professional gamers, the PRO X 2 features a durable, lightweight aluminum and steel frame and supreme comfort with a durable, rotating hinge and interchangeable leatherette and velvet ear cups.
- Communicate with confidence – 6mm cardioid microphone on a removable arm, with Blue VO!CE software filters included on the G HUB, for clear, consistent communications.
- DTS Headphone:X 2.0 Surround Sound – Precise surround sound, so you know exactly where your opponents are with deeply immersive sound experiences.
The Logitech G PRO Series is developed through a unique collaborative design program that brings together many of the world’s top athletes and esports teams. The goal is to develop new high-performance esports equipment that pushes the boundaries of innovation to give them a competitive edge.
« I’ve always felt that Logitech G values my feedback and opinion in product development. That’s why their equipment is the best performing and most popular among top esport athletes. During the development of the G Pro X 2 gaming headset, I appreciated its improved comfort and excellent microphone. In-game, I found the new graphene drivers to be a game changer. They really made me feel like I had a new advantage to beat my opponents, » said Oleksandr « s1mple » Kostyljev, Counter-Strike, Natus Vincere.
