Platform connections

Playing on Xbox Series / One? These wired headsets plug into the controller, and their makers list that console: Turtle Beach Recon 70 ($29.99 at Turtle Beach), ASTRO A10 Gen 2 ($44.99 at Logitech G) or Razer BlackShark V2 X ($59.99 at Razer).

“Works” means the maker lists that platform for the connection shown; “Maker doesn't say” means it doesn't mention it either way. On a headset, it also depends on the edition you pick.

You want to hear your own voice through headphones while you play.
You want a wearable microphone rather than a separate desk stand or arm.

Before choosing this model

Logitech's page lists Xbox, but Logitech names no way to connect it to an Xbox: the LIGHTSPEED receiver is for PC, Mac, PS5 and PS4, and Bluetooth for phones and a Switch.
On Switch 2, Nintendo says Bluetooth headphones play sound but their mic doesn't work in GameChat.
Bluetooth pairs with one device at a time.
Early units need a firmware update, run from a Windows PC, before they pair with a Switch.
Logitech designed it for smaller heads and younger players.
A dongle that fits a console's USB port doesn't mean the console takes the mic: check which platforms its maker lists on this page.
No stand or arm needed: the mic is on the headset.
Use the cable in the box; you only need an adapter if your computer lacks that port.
