The Xbox Wireless Headset, Microsoft’s official accessory for game voice chat, private chat, audio for video chat, and in-game voice recognition, has been refreshed with several key enhancements, including support for spatial audio technologies (e.g., Dolby Atmos), improved battery life offering up to be 20 hours of playtime, and advanced auto-mute and voice isolation, Xbox has announced. Connectivity options for the new headset include not only direct pairing with Xbox consoles, but also Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity for PC and mobile devices, as well as Qualcomm S5 Gen 2 technology for what is said to be ultra-low latency wireless connectivity for smooth, uninterrupted gameplay. A promo for the new headset, which is available now in select Xbox markets worldwide for $109.99 USD ERP, can be found below.

Long gaming sessions require maximum comfort, and the new Xbox Wireless Headset is designed with that in mind. Its adjustable headband and plush earcups provide a snug, comfortable fit, while the sleek, all-black design effortlessly complements any gaming setup. With up to 20 hours of battery life on a single charge, you can focus on gaming without the hassle of frequent recharges. The extended mic boom ensures your voice is heard clearly, even during the most intense moments. Need to adjust your audio mid-game? The intuitive on-ear controls make it easy to fine-tune your game/chat balance without interrupting the action. And for players who want even more control, the Xbox Accessories app offers deeper customization, allowing you to tailor the headset to your personal preferences.
