Is there a reason why you chose the smaller X version over the default Barracuda? Was it just the price or did you expect any issues?
I can't remember well. But: price in the X was good enough for me like 100€ maybe a bit less.
And secondly. The detachable microphone that can be located close to the mouth. That was a deal breaker for me because I use the headset to work (Microsoft teams) and play with friends (Warzone). And I like my voice to be as clear as possible. Especially if I have the windows open and some background noise.
So in short. I prefer unidirectional microphones that point to your mouth and if they are closer (so the gain doesn't need to be high), better.
