Turning them on while listening to more instrumental artists, like Pink Floyd and classical orchestras, resulted in a very immersive, rich soundstage. Vocal-focused tunes from artists like Childish Gambino and blues/rock, like Larkin Poe, sounded best with the SXFI enhancements disabled. (opens in new tab) That said, music sounds better than you’d likely expect from gaming-focused headphones, particularly in this price range. Musically, the headset can’t match the depth and clarity of more audiophile-oriented headsets, like my Sennheiser Momentum 3.

In Bluetooth mode, I didn’t perceive any lag between video and audio, so watching YouTube videos on my phone or shows on my Bluetooth-equipped TV were both pleasant experiences. The strong bass response was great for action sequences, and voices remained clear with or without SXFI enhancements engaged. The SXFI Air Gamer also worked very well for watching movies and other videos. While the virtual surround performance was convincing, the difference between 5.1 and 7.1 channels was negligible. With SXFI enabled, you can choose between stereo, 5.1, and 7.1 channel audio. Still, for games where you’re not as focused on someone poking around the corner to kill you, the standard SXFI mode has a slightly more natural overall tone. It didn’t harm the experience, and I had no trouble understanding dialogue or picking up other sound cues. When engaged, it de-emphasizes other audio slightly, giving other background sounds a more distant, ethereal feel. SXFI Battle Mode worked extremely well with Call of Duty: Warzone, Just Cause 4 and Watch Dogs: Legion. Creative has addressed that weakness well with the addition of SXFi Battle Mode, which accentuates low sounds like footfalls and weapons fire and makes detecting them much easier. When we tested Creative’s earlier SXFI Air headset, the earlier iteration of SXFI tech fell behind some of the competition when it came to using 3D audio imaging to locate enemy movement and fire. Sounds not only feel positionally distributed, but also like they’re coming from detectably varying distances. Creative says that the Super X-Fi computational audio maps your head and ear shape and uses that information to tweak the audio output create a virtual “holographic audio” 3D soundstage tailored for your unique physique.
Once you engage the Super X-Fi (SXFI) audio, the soundstage really does spread out effectively around you. It feels just right for a set of cans aimed at gamers. Explosions and shots in games (and drums in music) have a serious thump to them, but bass isn’t overemphasized to the point of muddying audio clarity or feeling overblown.

Its large 50mm drivers do a great job of delivering clear audio across sound effects, voices and music, and the bass reproduction is among the better I’ve heard. In its pure state with enhancements disabled, the SXFI Air Gamer’s audio quality is quite good.

You can connect via USB to PC, Mac, Nintendo Switch and PS4/PS4 Pro and to an Xbox controller via the 3.5mm cable. The SXFI Air Gamer comes with both USB-C and 3.5mm cables, as well as a USB-A to USB-C adapter.

Music playback quality was great, but given that the only navigation through your tune collection is skipping forward and back through all of the tracks on the card, it’s hard to see getting much use from this feature when playing through your PC or phone will offer dramatically better music navigation.
Though technically only rated for cards up to 32GB, the smallest MicroSD card I had available was 64GB, and it worked fine, with the headset recognizing both MP3 and FLAC files. The touch controls are responsive, and I didn’t encounter any issues with accidental activation when adjusting the headset.Īlso on the left earpiece are USB-C and 3.5mm audio connectors, a microphone connector and a MicroSD card slot that lets the SXFI Air Gamer function as a standalone music player. Tap the pad to pause playback or answer/end a call. Swipe up/down to adjust volume or left/right to skip audio tracks.
You can also manipulate volume and audio playback via a touch surface on the outside of the left earcup. The controls are smartly spread out far enough from each other that you won’t hit the wrong switch once you learn the placements. There’s a power button, a toggle to swap sources and a button that enables the headset’s audio enhancements. The earcups are ringed with a tiny “Super X-Fi Headphone Holography” slogan repeated around the circumference, but the writing’s small enough that it’s an unobjectionable visual accent.Īll of the headset’s controls surround the left earcup. There’s a padded headband featuring a subtle Creative logo across the top, as well as SXFI Air Gamer branding.
