The wired Arctis Nova Pro for Xbox costs $214.99 and ships with the GameDAC Gen 2, whose 96 kHz/24-bit stage and two USB-C inputs are what the money buys; the headset itself stays tethered.
Buy the $349.99 Quest 3S 128GB as a first headset. The $100 step to 256GB buys storage alone; the $599.99 Quest 3 changes the optics, not the game library.
Valve now sells the OLED Steam Deck in two US tiers — $789.00 for 512GB, $949.00 for 1TB — and the $160 step buys etched glass, a lined case and doubled storage, not a faster machine.
Logitech's entry wireless gaming mouse pairs the HERO sensor with a 1 ms receiver and a single AA cell, and lists at $59.99 in every color. The battery is the whole design, for better and for weight.
For $59.99 the Ultimate 2 Wireless adds TMR joysticks, switchable Hall effect triggers, back paddles, a 1000 mAh battery, and a charging dock over the $29.99 Ultimate 2C. The compatibility list grew to include SteamOS and Apple, but Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch are still absent.
For $29.99 you get Hall effect sticks, 1000 Hz polling over 2.4G, and a 19-hour battery claim. The compatibility line reads Windows and Android, and 8BitDo sells a different Ultimate 2C for Switch.
