This offers many of the same features as the A50 X, though it skips out on the HDMI Passthrough technology. Beyond that, you can still connect to PS5, Xbox, Switch, and PC, you’ll still get Pro-G Graphene audio drivers (40mm), and you’ll still get an included base station for charging. The same mobile app also lets you tweak a variety of settings like stream output mixing, mic settings, and other variables, and the overall design of the A50 is essentially the same as the A50 X.
Note that if you’re playing on PC, this will support the same 24-bit/48kHz as the A50 X. On console, performance drops to 16-bit/48kHz. In short, if you’re playing just on PC, this is the headset to get. If you’re playing on console, you’ll have to decide if the slight performance bump of the A50 X is worth an extra $90.
