Want a new gaming headset? I test a new pair every week, and these are the top 5 I'd recommend this Prime Day

1. Logitech G Astro A50 X | £399.99 £324.99 at AmazonSave $75 - The Astro A50 X is one of the priciest PC headsets you can find, but that's undoubtedly down to the fact it comes with an HDMI switcher, making it the ultimate PC headset for multi-platform players. With Prime Day is full swing, it's down to $324.99 right now, which is still not cheap, but a big deal as its price likes the bounce up to $375 when the deals aren't flowing.
