I really have to compare it to my old ones, Sennheiser, Logitech, etc. and YES some of the best I've ever used.

Haven't compared it to my latest wireless AirPods Max (best wireless ones I've had so far) will have to do that this weekend and let you know.

Logitech PRO X WIRELESS I have had my Pro X for over 15 months now, battery still lasts over 20 hours. The Mic is fantastic, the headset is lighter, more comfortable and much better sounding than my last headset G935( when new they had very noisy plastic creaking at any head movements and the earpads went flat eventually with cracks starting at the headband transition) and better than my Sennheiser headset did (ear pads split and cracked, ear cup mount broke and mic boom switch bad). Most headsets don't last me longer than 15 months. The most common problem is physical breakage at an ear cup mount or headband to ear cup mount transition. in the last 12 years I have purchased at least 15 headsets. I have my headset on a minimum of 4-5 hours or more daily If I break the PRO X or when they wear out I'll probably get another one. Currently they run about $120 US or less with free shipping. RGB on a headset is pointless, I automatically avoid any headset that has it anymore they are all shiny junk.  Brands to avoid for headsets  Razar, Roccat(love their Mice), Turtle beach and Logitech G9xx headsets, They sound good but are fragile AF & no longetvity. 

My significant other hates my current Pro X headset because I cannot hear her talking  +++!

I use the Logitech G935 wireless. They are pretty decent in my opinion, but do not let your kid use the charger cord for their ps4 controllers! 😬😄 It trashes the charger port. Lol

I got the Corsair H2100 wireless headset about 7-8 years ago and they are still going strong. Excellent battery life, can use whilst charging, no latency (that is noticeable), excellent software to upscale to virtual 7.1 surround, noise cancelling. I don't like the proprietary wireless dongle, but I guess that's a standard thing. Really comfortable too.

So tried out my current favorite all time wireless headset which I use mostly for meetings, youtube and music.  Fantastic battery life, sound quality (for wireless) and incredible noise cancellation.  Doesn't even come close to holding a candle to my wired Arctis Pro for playing COD4.

Here a cool review site I found while searching for some data:
