Illogical but easy upgrade to the Logitech G Pro X 2 mic?
57One of my subscribers (@eschmar ) asked whether it was possible to use the mic from the Razer Blackshark V2 Pro (2023) https://youtu.be/pGtRLI_guv4 with the Logitech G Pro X 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgaC8ETroJk).
So since I had both headsets I thought I'd test that.
The comment suggested that there's a replacement mic you can buy for $20, but all I can find is this https://www.razer.com/replacement-parts-audio/Razer-BlackShark-V2-BlackShark-V2-Pro-Detachable-Microphone/RC30-03220300-R3M1 which is for the OLDER model of the V2 Pro, so isn't as fancy as the newer mic. Keep this in mind. I've asked Razer's PR and they said that the V2 Pro 2023 Edition mic likely won't be available until later on. So this video might have been a waste of time, but hey it still shows that the mic on the Razer Headset is great. Be sure to check out my other videos on both these headsets!
My favourite features of the Logitech G Pro X Lightspeed are:
- The swappable ear cushions included as standard (choices of comfort or passive noise cancellation)
- A solid headband design that includes pivot and tilt ear cups that can easily fit your head
- Both Bluetooth and wireless connectivity (though sadly not at the same time)
- 3.5mm connections on the headset AND on the wireless dongle, so you can wirelessly mic monitor and external mic or mix in another analogue source
- Good punchy bass and DTS Headphone X 2.0 as well as other satisfying sound profiles
- Logitech Blue Voice mic tech (for customised sound)
- Stylish design
- Decent battery life
