Xbox Announces New And Improved Wireless Headset

Today, the new Xbox Wireless Headset was announced. This headset features the same sleek and classic look as the original Xbox Wireless Headset but comes with some new enhancements to make the headset better and provide a more immersive and seamless experience for those who want that surround sound feeling. For those who are interested in picking up the headset, you can purchase it for $109.99, with this new version of the headset officially replacing the original model. The headset is available for purchase now.

To make sure that players are getting the most immersive gaming experience with this new headset, players will be able to use Dolby Atmos for immersive, spatial audio at no additional cost. Compared to the previous headset, the battery life has now been improved and offers players up to 20 hours of playtime. Additionally, the microphone for the Xbox Wireless Headset has been improved, offering a new enhanced auto-mute and voice isolation system featuring Bluetooth 5.3. The Xbox Wireless Headset is available in all-black, with no current plans to create the headset in other colors.

If Dolby Atmos isn’t your style, the Xbox Wireless Headset also comes with built-in support for Windows Sonic and DTS Headphone: X. For those who like to be able to hear every single detail during their gaming experience, this is the perfect audio combination. Just in time for October, the month when everyone is braving some new horror games.

Even if you aren’t planning on using this headset for the Xbox, it has Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity for both PC and mobile devices, which means that players using this headset will be able to switch between devices without any issue, and there won’t be endless fiddling around with the Bluetooth settings to try and get your devices to sync up. Additionally, there are no dongles or extra pieces of equipment that you’ll need to use in order to get your headset working.

The Xbox Wireless Headset comes with Qualcomm S5 Gen 2 technology, providing a low-latency wireless connection, allowing for smooth gameplay and perfect communications between teammates.

On the blog post for the Xbox Wireless headset, it is noted that for those wanting to use DTS Headphone: X, you may have to purchase additional content and apps to be able to use it. Additionally, the battery life of the headset depends on a number of factors, including the distance from the console, additional accessories, usage, and more.
