Finally gotten the Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headset for Xbox from Amazon...

first time got held up by Kastam due to need Sirim certification for bringing in wireless stuff, never got it previously for all of wireless stuffs imported from overseas... anyway, paid RM20 only for the SIRIM certification, process was extremely fast and painless done DIY online. If thru agents you'll need to pay at least RM100++ doh.gif

For the new cans, love the improved audio quality, a lot more louder and crispier compared to my 7X and Pro Wireless, but a bit too sharp, probably need to burn in and adjust the EQ a bit more.
Best thing is one headset to rule them all! No need to switch headset when switching consoles! rclxms.gif
But the ANC is a bit lackluster... probably I've been spoilt by the superior ANC from Sony XM sets

RM465 in total with SIRIM after redeeming my citipoints with Amazon US biggrin.gif

for those who has Citibank cards, IMO it's more worth it to redeeming them on Amazon US compared to locally, my points only worth around RM600 is use locally, but on Amazon US is RM1K+ rclxms.gif

1.2K for a 2Tb, still a lot more expensive than the other camp, compatible 2Tb NVME SSD can be bought at less than 700 now

even with WD releasing their version for xbox series, their price will never come down as cheap as the nvme

probably due to the cost of economics, this xbox expansion card is low volume manufacturing lol, niche product. Not sure why microsoft going thru this, maybe they thinking convenient can swap like memory card

Anyway... now am switching games between PS5 & XsX to make sure I spend equal times with each one tongue.gif

Graphics = both the same
Game collection based on GPU & PS+ Extra = Xbox has slight edge with their day 1 first party games
Controllers = DS5 wins, Xbox controller felt empty after you're used to the HD rumble on DS5, but haptic trigger is just a gimmick for me, doesn't miss it
UI = MS smokes Sony by miles until Sony can't even see MS's taillight
New Console features = again MS smokes Sony in this, Dolby Vision & Atmos? MS does a much better job, based on the same compatible headset (Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro wireless) and same OLED TV.
Things I missed the most from XsX when switching to PS5 is the sweet Quick Resume feature, wanna quit anytime? just quit and resume at the same spot anytime. PS5? I need to waste minutes watching the start sequence again, and most of the time I'll need to waste time play back a certain sequence of the game from the last checkpoint...

and not forgetting my undisputed loo champion : Nintendo Switch tongue.gif

Quick Resume : Yea, when i playing GoW from PS5 cold boot, the waiting feels so bad unless from rest mode and no suspense the game. What's more Now M$ Xbox boot up time also increase thanks to their "fast forward" booting logo time.

Some feature i also dun like after playing with PS5 are:

1) Dualsense battery really bad
2) I cannot charge dualsense directly when it is turned on ; must turn it off and plug the cable (from PS5) and wait the orange light glowing then only can use it again if wan to wire
3) the pop out notification on the right side - can we customise it like xbox ? Xbox is good cause we can adjust to any corner we like even in the mid.

Overall, both console works about same actually for this generation.
