Hey everyone!
I currently own the Philips Fidelio X2HR, and I absolutely love them. The soundstage and overall sound quality are fantastic. However, I’m considering adding a wireless headset that I can use across all my gaming devices.

My platforms are:

Xbox Series X
Steam Deck OLED
Nintendo Switch 2
PlayStation 5
Steam Machine (still on waiting list)
Retroid Nova

I’ve narrowed my options down to three headsets:
Razer BlackShark V2 Pro (Xbox version) – around $100
SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5X Wireless – around $135
HyperX CloudX Flight 2 – around $150, as I’d need to import them from the US.

I previously owned the HyperX CloudX Flight 1 and was really happy with them, so the CloudX Flight 2 is definitely tempting.

Sound quality is obviously my top priority, but comfort is equally important. I want something I can wear for long gaming sessions without my ears getting too hot or feeling uncomfortable.

Which one would you choose, and why?
I’d especially appreciate feedback from anyone who has tried more than one of these headsets. How do they compare in sound quality, soundstage, comfort, microphone quality and wireless connectivity? Are there any compatibility issues with the PS5, Switch 2, Steam Deck or Android-based handhelds that I should know about?
I’m happy with my Fidelio X2HR for wired listening, so I’m mainly looking for a comfortable, good-sounding wireless option that can cover all my gaming devices without compromises in compatibility.
