Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Review: The All-Round Wireless Pick

★★★★ 4.3/5

Reviewed 2026-06-29

Precise wireless imaging (4/5) from 50mm graphene drivers in a warm, controlled tuning that is more all-round than a footstep specialist. At $249 it is the headphone for players who want competitive imaging plus decent music enjoyment in one wireless package — but the warmer character means the 0.5-5 kHz footstep cue band sits slightly further back than on the brighter BlackShark V2 Pro.

Best for: Players who want a capable wireless headset that handles both competitive imaging and music listening without the bright-only compromise of a pure esports tuning.

AimBench score

Product verdict — build, value & fit, not win-rate.

Footsteps (positional)4/5
Versatility4/5
Music4/5

The good

  • +Precise positional imaging (4/5) — footstep direction is clear and reliable
  • +50mm graphene drivers give a controlled, detailed sound at 38 Ohm — self-amplified, no extra hardware
  • +Warmer, darker tuning that works for music (4/5) without fatiguing over long sessions
  • +Wireless with a solid build and Logitech's LIGHTSPEED low-latency connection

The catch

  • −Warmer tuning means the footstep cue band is slightly more veiled than the brighter BlackShark V2 Pro
  • −$249 is flagship-class pricing — cheaper closed headsets image comparably well
  • −Positional accuracy (4/5) is strong but not class-leading; the BlackShark V2 Pro tops it at 5/5
  • −Bass-present tuning means music is enjoyable but footsteps are not the absolute priority

AimBench insight

You are paying a $50 premium over the BlackShark V2 Pro for a warmer, more all-round tuning and Logitech's ecosystem — the imaging is slightly less precise for footsteps, so only take the premium if all-round audio quality matters as much as positional cues.

Footstep clarity, then refinement

Headphones aren't scored on a "best-built" composite like mice — the one genuine competitive audio edge, positional (footstep) clarity, saturates around the mid-price class (~$80–150). So we rank on footsteps to the floor, then read the rest — comfort, music, convenience — for what it is: refinement, not an edge. First, whether the tuning keeps the ~0.5–5 kHz cue band clear:

⚠ Bass can mask footsteps — its warm tilt lifts the low end into the ~0.5–5 kHz cue band; recover it free with EQ (a tuning issue, not a quality one).

Footsteps (the floor): 4/5 positional · beyond footsteps (refinement, not an edge): all-round/comfort 4/5 · music 4/5 · wireless + mic convenience.

See how it places in its class on the headphone by-budget guide, and why audio is a floor, not a booster.

The G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED is the do-most-things wireless headset: precise imaging (4/5), a controlled warm tuning that is enjoyable for music without being fatiguing, and Logitech's LIGHTSPEED wireless at 38 Ohm in a self-amplified package. It is the choice for players who want competitive-grade footstep cues and a headset they will also enjoy outside the game.

Footsteps: precise but not the specialist

The graphene drivers image well (4/5) — footstep direction and distance are clear and reliably placeable. Where it gives ground to the BlackShark V2 Pro is tuning: the warmer, bass-present character puts slightly more energy into the lower frequencies and slightly less into the 0.5-5 kHz footstep cue band. The difference is real but modest in practice — both headsets are competitive. The V2 Pro is the specialist; this is the generalist that happens to image well.

The premium question

At $249 it costs $50 more than the BlackShark V2 Pro and images less precisely for footsteps. The justification is the music performance (4/5) and the all-round daily-use appeal — if you value a headset that is genuinely good for both rather than optimised for one, the premium makes sense. If footsteps are the only axis that matters, the V2 Pro wins on value and imaging together.

Cross-shopping wireless headsets for competitive FPS? The BlackShark V2 Pro images at 5/5 for $50 less. Buy the G PRO X 2 when you want imaging plus all-round audio quality in the same Logitech ecosystem — not when footsteps alone drive the decision.
