Attack Shark X60 Review (2026): $74.99 Headset With a Charging Dock

A 53mm driver, Bluetooth 6.0 and a magnetic RGB dock that also works as a USB hub, for less than most headsets cost without one. Nothing here has been measured by anyone, and two numbers Attack Shark left out decide whether it works for you.

By Gaming Gear Reviews · Published November 4, 2026 · Specs checked November 4, 2026 · 31 min read

⚡ TL;DR — should you pre-order it?

Maybe, at $54.99. Not at $199.99, and not if you need proven audio. The Attack Shark X60 pre-orders open November 4, 2026 (PST) and shipping starts November 19, 2026 (PST). It is a wireless gaming headset with a 53mm dynamic driver on a PEN nano-polymer diaphragm, app-based 7.1 virtual surround with custom EQ, four connection routes including Bluetooth 6.0, a detachable 360-degree AI-noise-reduction mic and a 1,000mAh battery. The reason it exists is the box it sits in: an RGB magnetic charging dock that also adds USB-A and USB-C expansion ports. The price is where the argument starts. The vendor lists an MSRP of $74.99 and a "VIP exclusive price" of $54.99, but that $54.99 is not a membership tier — it is $74.99 minus a $20 code you unlock with a non-refundable $1 deposit, so the real all-in price is $55.99 and the real saving is $19. One outlet has reported $199.99; nothing on Attack Shark's own store supports that, and at that price this headset has no case at all. Verdict: 3.5/5, provisional. There is no independent review, no frequency response curve, no weight and no battery runtime for this product as of November 4, 2026, and a rating without measurements can only be provisional. Wait for a weight figure and a runtime figure before you treat this as a purchase rather than a cheap experiment.

What the X60 Actually Is — and What November 4 Actually Is

Attack Shark announced the X60 in a PR Newswire release dated October 29, 2026, describing it as its new flagship headset and a "complete desktop audio solution." Pre-orders open November 4, 2026 on Pacific time, and the product page says shipping begins November 19, 2026 (PST) with orders filled in sequence. It comes in Black and White. Attack Shark points buyers at its Amazon stores in the US, UK, Europe, Australia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Japan; the release names no French store, and the terms exclude shipping to Turkey and Egypt.

November 4 is not a launch. It is the day you can pay a dollar for the right to pay $54.99 later. That distinction matters more than usual here, because the pre-order window closes before any unit reaches a reviewer. Attack Shark has published a specification sheet, a marketing page, an FAQ it wrote itself and a blog post dated November 2. It has not published a measurement, and neither has anybody else. This review is an assessment of vendor specifications and vendor pricing, not a test. Every performance claim below is labelled as Attack Shark's, and every place a number should be and is not, we say so.

What is genuinely new for this brand: the dock. Attack Shark already sells a stack of headsets between $26.99 and $49.99, and none of them comes with a charging dock, a hub, Bluetooth 6.0 or a driver bigger than the usual 40mm-class unit. The X60 is the first time the company has tried to sell a headset as a piece of desk furniture instead of an accessory. That is the whole pitch, and it is a more interesting pitch than another $29.99 tri-mode headset.

The Price: $74.99, $54.99, and the $199.99 That Would Kill It

Attack Shark X60, Black or White — $74.99 MSRP, $54.99 "VIP exclusive price." Both figures are vendor-listed on attackshark.com and were read there on November 4, 2026. The page shows $54.99 above a struck-through $74.99, labels them "VIP EXCLUSIVE PRICE" and "MSRP," and takes a $1 pre-order deposit that the terms describe as non-refundable. The page itself states the relationship in its FAQ: a $1 reservation "includes a $20 OFF code that brings the final price to $54.99." So $54.99 is $74.99 minus $20, and the entry fee is a dollar you do not get back.

The pre-order mechanics, in full. One reservation per customer. The $20 code arrives by email "shortly before the product launch," must go to the same address as your Attack Shark account, is valid for one month from the date of issue, works only on the final X60 purchase at attackshark.com, and cannot be combined with other discounts or reward points. Extra reservations earn no extra codes and are not refunded. The color you choose at reservation is explicitly not binding. The deposit is non-refundable in every case, including an expired or unused code.

The arithmetic nobody puts on the banner. $1 now plus $54.99 later is $55.99, which is $19 below MSRP, not $20 — unless Attack Shark credits the dollar against the purchase, which its terms do not say it will. If you reserve and then decide not to buy, you are down $1 and you have taught the vendor nothing.

The timing problem. The code is issued "shortly before the product launch" and dies one month later. Pre-orders open November 4 and units ship November 19. If the code lands with the pre-order date, it expires around December 4 — roughly two weeks after the first retail units exist and the first independent measurements can be published. You are being asked to commit at $54.99 before the data that would justify it can exist, and the deadline for using the discount arrives shortly after that data starts to appear.

The $199.99 figure. One outlet has reported a US price of $199.99, and Gagadget — which covered the contradiction — noted that neither that number nor the $74.99 was confirmed by the brand. Nothing on attackshark.com, in the press release or in the Amazon store listings we could reach supports $199.99. We are treating $74.99 as the vendor-listed MSRP and $54.99 as the promotional price, and we are saying plainly that at $199.99 this product would have no case whatsoever: that is Razer Barracuda V2 Pro money, with hybrid ANC and a 70-hour battery claim, from a brand with a decade of measured reviews behind it.

Prices are vendor-listed and move. Attack Shark's store geolocates by country and converts: our session resolved to Hong Kong and displayed the US$1 deposit as HK$7.85. If you are reading this from the US, UK or EU, the number you see at checkout will not be the number in this paragraph. Confirm the current price on the store before you reserve anything.

What You Get for $54.99 vs $74.99

Four prices matter here, and only one of them is a good idea.

What you payHow you get thereWhat it actually costsVerdict
$1 todayNon-refundable reservation, one per customer, code emailed before launch, valid one month, attackshark.com only$1 spent now; $20 off later at an unknown dateThe only route to $54.99. Cheap, and unrecoverable if you walk away
$54.99 + $1MSRP minus the $20 code$55.99 all-in, or $19 under MSRPThe real pre-order price. Good value on paper, unmeasured in practice
$74.99MSRP, no code — Amazon, a later restock, or the code expired unused$74.99Still a lot of hardware for the money; no longer an obvious bargain
$199.99One outlet's unconfirmed figure. Not on any Attack Shark page—No. At that price the dock stops being a story and the missing measurements become disqualifying

The gap between $54.99 and $74.99 buys you exactly nothing different in the box. Same headset, same dock, same two receivers, same microphone. The only variable is whether you paid a dollar for a code and used it inside the month. That is a pricing mechanic dressed up as a VIP tier, and it is worth naming as one: the "VIP exclusive price" is the price you get for prepaying a dollar on an untested product.

For scale inside Attack Shark's own catalogue, checked November 4, 2026: the L60 tri-mode headset is $29.99 at MSRP and about 230g with a 3.5mm wired mode, the L50 PRO is $49.99, the L30 PRO is $45.99 and the G800 is $39.99. The X60 at $74.99 is the most expensive headset the company sells, by a margin of $25 over its previous top model. You are paying that premium for the dock, the 53mm driver, Bluetooth 6.0 and the aluminium-framed build — not for a brand tax, because this brand does not have one.

The Dock Is the Product

Strip the dock away and the X60 is a $74.99 wireless headset with a big driver, virtual surround and a detachable mic — a crowded, competent category where Attack Shark already sells four cheaper options. The dock is the reason to look at this instead of an L50 PRO, and it is doing three jobs.

Two things about the hub are unknown and both matter. First, whether those ports carry data or only power: the release says "integrated USB and Type-C ports" and the page says "expansion ports," and neither says whether a flash drive or a mouse receiver plugged into the dock will show up on your PC. Second, what the dock needs to run: no power rating, no mention of whether the hub works with the PC asleep, and no indication of whether the dock's ports compete with the headset's own 2.4GHz receivers for bandwidth. If you were buying this specifically as a hub, wait for someone to plug something into it on camera.

⚠️ The honest framing. You are not paying $54.99 for a 53mm driver. You are paying $54.99 for a charging dock, a hub and a headset that happens to be attached to them. If what you want is the best-sounding headset at $55, this is probably the wrong purchase and definitely the wrong way to make it — nobody can tell you how it sounds. If what you want is a cheap desk-charging headset with Bluetooth for your phone, the X60 is the only thing in this price band that shows up with the dock in the box.

Four Ways to Connect, and the Two Compatibility Answers That Don't Match

Attack Shark ships two receivers, a USB-C one and a USB-A one, so the same 2.4GHz link works on a laptop with only USB-C, a PS5, a Switch dock or a desktop with only USB-A. Add Bluetooth 6.0 for phones and tablets, and a USB-A wired mode for zero-latency or charging-while-playing, and you have four physical routes — three radio or cable paths, if you prefer to count it the way the product page does ("tri-mode"). A physical slide switch on the earcup changes modes, which is the correct design: you should not need to open software to move between your PC and your phone.

There is no 3.5mm jack. That is the single most consequential omission in the whole spec sheet, and it is why the Xbox answer is what it is. A 3.5mm jack is how a headset works on an Xbox controller, on a Switch in handheld mode, on a DualSense, on a plane, and on the one device whose USB port you already needed. Wired mode here means USB audio only.

Which brings us to the contradiction. The October 29 press release lists Xbox among supported platforms. The product page's specification table omits Xbox entirely, and the page's own FAQ answers "Does the X60 work with Xbox?" with "No." Given that Xbox accepts wireless audio only from officially licensed headsets and offers a 3.5mm jack for everything else, and given that this headset has neither, the FAQ is the answer that matches the hardware. Treat the X60 as a PC, PlayStation and Switch headset. If a retailer listing tells you otherwise, the retailer is copying the press release.

Bluetooth 6.0 is a version number, not a codec. Attack Shark publishes no codec list — no LC3 or LE Audio claim, no aptX, no LDAC, nothing about multipoint pairing. On a phone you will get whatever the source and the headset negotiate, which in the absence of a published list is likely SBC or AAC. Bluetooth 6.0 also does not by itself mean lower latency than the 2.4GHz receiver; the release claims "upgraded" 2.4GHz technology and "low latency," and publishes no millisecond figure for either path. If you are buying this for wireless competitive play, the 2.4GHz receiver is the mode you will use, and the number that would tell you whether it is good enough has not been published.

53mm Drivers, a PEN Diaphragm, and 7.1 That Nobody Has Measured

The driver is the most substantive part of the specification. 53mm is large for a gaming headset — most of this category runs 40mm units, including the $99.99 Razer Kraken Kitty V3 we reviewed in October — and a bigger diaphragm moves more air with less excursion, which usually buys bass extension and lower distortion at high volume. The material matters too: PEN (polyethylene naphthalate) is a stiff, well-damped polymer film used in proper audio drivers, and "nano-polymer" is Attack Shark's way of saying the film is thin. A stiff, light diaphragm is the right way to reduce the breakup modes that make cheap headsets sound harsh in the upper mids.

The independent acoustic chamber claim is the more interesting one. Isolating the driver's rear volume from the rest of the cup and tuning the airflow is exactly how you get controlled bass instead of a resonant box, and it is the kind of thing that separates a $75 headset from a $30 one on a bench. It also cannot be evaluated from a press release.

7.1 virtual surround is software, not seven drivers. The X60 has two. The 7.1 processing runs in Attack Shark's app, alongside preset EQ profiles, a custom equalizer and spatial audio settings, and the app is where you will spend your first hour with this thing. Whether the surround implementation is any good — whether it images footsteps without smearing the stereo field, whether it adds latency, whether it works on PS5 where the receiver presents as generic USB audio — is unknown. No published measurement, no recording, no comparison. What we can say is that virtual surround at this price is usually a switch you turn off after a week, and the custom EQ is usually the feature you keep.

💡 Read the audio section as a bet, not a review. There is no frequency response graph, no total harmonic distortion figure, no impedance, no sensitivity and no independent listening test for the X60 as of November 4, 2026. Everything above is what the parts are and why they are the right parts to specify. Whether Attack Shark tuned them well is the question the $54.99 is actually wagering on, and the answer arrives after the discount code expires.

Battery: 1,000mAh and No Runtime

The pack is 1,000mAh. At a nominal 3.7 volts that is about 3.7 watt-hours, which is a normal size for a wireless gaming headset and is arithmetic rather than a runtime estimate. What Attack Shark will not tell you is how long it lasts. There is no hours figure in the press release, none in the specifications table, none in the marketing copy and none in the FAQ — which answers "How long does the X60 battery last?" with a sentence about the pack being high-density and the headset supporting play-while-charging. That is not an answer. It is a change of subject.

Two things soften the omission without excusing it. First, play-while-charging plus a desk dock is a genuine answer for desktop use: if the headset lives on your desk, runtime matters far less than it does on a commute, and drop-and-charge means you rarely start a session near empty. Second, the category is full of unpublished batteries — Sony does not publish one for the $99.99 PlayStation Pulse, as our review notes. But Razer claims 70 hours for the $199.99 Barracuda V2 Pro, so the information does exist at the top of this market, and a 1,000mAh pack with RGB running is not going to be a 70-hour headset. Nine lighting effects and a wireless charging coil both cost you energy.

What is missing beyond runtime: charge time (how long the dock takes to refill 1,000mAh), dock power rating, and whether the headset can run entirely from the dock with the battery flat. None published. If you are the kind of buyer who checks a battery number before a driver size, this product has not been specified for you yet.

Comfort, Weight, and the Number Attack Shark Left Out

The mechanical comfort story is better documented than the audio one, and it reads like a company that has been selling $29.99 headsets to people who wear them for six hours and complain. Earcups that swivel 90° lie flat for travel and fit around a jaw. 37.5° of tilt is the number that matters most for glasses wearers and for anyone whose head is not a sphere: a cup that can angle to the side of your skull seals with less clamping force than one that cannot. Microfiber pads and a memory foam headband are the right materials at this price — cooler than leatherette over a long session, less durable over three years. The aluminium alloy supports in a reinforced frame are the part that usually breaks on cheap headsets, so specifying metal there is a real decision rather than a marketing one.

Then there is the contradiction. The press release says the headband adapts "through three-level headband adjustment." The product page says the opposite: "stepless headband adjustment… without fixed adjustment levels." Both cannot describe the same headset. It is a small thing that tells you something larger about how carefully these two documents were checked against each other — and it is one of three specification conflicts we found in a week-old product listing, alongside Xbox support and the wording of the connection modes.

The weight is not published anywhere. Not in the release, not in the specification table, not in the FAQ, not in the marketing copy. This is the number that decides whether a 53mm driver, an aluminium frame, a 1,000mAh battery and a magnetic charging coil are comfortable for three hours. Attack Shark publishes "about 230g" for its $29.99 L60; the X60 adds a bigger driver, metal structure, a bigger battery and a coil, so it is heavier than 230g. Heavier by 40g is fine. Heavier by 120g is a different product with a different audience, and the difference between those two outcomes is precisely the information being withheld.

Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • The dock is genuinely unusual at this price. A magnetic RGB charging dock that doubles as a USB-A and USB-C hub is not a feature we have seen on another headset under $100 in our coverage
  • Two receivers in the box, USB-A and USB-C, so the same 2.4GHz link works on a USB-C-only laptop, a PS5 and a desktop without an adapter
  • Bluetooth 6.0 alongside 2.4GHz, with physical slide switching on the earcup — phone, PC and console without opening an app
  • 53mm driver on a PEN diaphragm in an isolated chamber, which is a more serious acoustic specification than the 40mm units at $99.99 in this category
  • App-based 7.1 surround, custom EQ and spatial audio with savable per-game profiles, not a fixed tuning
  • Detachable 360° mic with a dedicated AI audio chip — detachable means you can use it as headphones without a boom in your face
  • Comfort hardware is specified properly: 90° swivel, 37.5° tilt, microfiber pads, memory foam, aluminium supports
  • 1,000mAh with play-while-charging, and the dock makes topping up a habit rather than a chore
  • 30-day free replacement or refund for functional faults, plus a 15-day no-reason return — better terms than most budget brands publish
  • $54.99 is cheap for this feature stack if the code arrives and you use it

⚠️ Cons

  • Zero independent test data. No frequency response, no distortion figure, no mic recording, no lab measurement, no hands-on from anyone as of November 4, 2026
  • No battery runtime published. A 1,000mAh pack with nine RGB effects and no hours figure is the definition of an unanswered question
  • No weight published, on a headset with a 53mm driver, aluminium supports, a 1,000mAh pack and a charging coil
  • The $54.99 is a $1 non-refundable deposit plus a $20 code, so the real all-in price is $55.99 and the real saving is $19
  • The code is valid one month from issue and is issued before launch, so it can expire before independent reviews of shipping units exist
  • No 3.5mm jack, which rules out Xbox, handheld Switch and every analog source
  • Xbox support is claimed in the release and denied on the product page. One of those documents is wrong and the hardware suggests it is the release
  • No published Bluetooth codec list and no latency figure for either wireless path
  • No ANC — noise handling is on the microphone only
  • Headband adjustment is described two different ways in two vendor documents published a week apart
  • You commit before you can read a measurement, and the discount deadline lands before most reviews will

5 Best Attack Shark X60 Alternatives

All five cost more than $54.99 and three of them cost more than $74.99. That is the point: the X60's argument is price plus a dock, and every alternative here is an argument about something the X60 cannot currently prove — measured sound, a known battery, or a track record.

1

HyperX Cloud III

Best for: if you want proven sound and no battery at all — ~$100

2

Razer Kraken Kitty V3

Best for: spending $99.99 on personality instead of a dock

3

PlayStation Pulse

Best for: PS5 owners who want planar magnetic drivers — $99.99

4

Razer Barracuda V2 Pro

Best for: the $199.99 answer to "what does a finished version of this idea look like"

5

Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra II

Best for: if $199.99 is your budget and your actual problem is the controller — $199.99

Spec Comparison: X60 vs the Headsets We Have Actually Reviewed

Attack Shark L60$29.99 MSRP2.4GHz, Bluetooth, 3.5mm wiredNot publishedAbout 230g by the vendor's own figure, a 3.5mm jack, and less than half the price

The comparison that should give a buyer pause is the last row. Attack Shark's own $29.99 L60 has a 3.5mm jack, which means it works on an Xbox controller and a handheld Switch, and the company will tell you it weighs about 230g. The X60 costs two and a half times as much, has no jack, and will not tell you its weight. The dock and the 53mm driver have to be worth that gap, and until somebody measures them, you are the one underwriting the difference.

Who Should Pre-Order, and Who Should Wait

⚠️ Honest note — is 3.5/5 fair for something nobody has tested? It is the only honest rating available. The specification is strong for $54.99: a 53mm PEN driver, an isolated chamber, two receivers, Bluetooth 6.0, a detachable AI mic, real comfort hardware and a dock that does something no competitor at this price does. The documentation is weak in ways that matter: no weight, no runtime, no frequency response, no codec list, no latency figure, a press release and a product page that disagree about Xbox and about the headband, and a discount mechanic that expires around the time the first reviews could appear. Add those two facts together and you get a product that is worth a $55.99 experiment and not worth a $199.99 commitment. If a retail unit arrives and weighs under 300g with a runtime over 30 hours, this rating goes up. If it weighs 380g and runs for 12 hours, it goes down. Prices are vendor-listed on November 4, 2026 and move; we are not affiliated with Attack Shark, Razer, HyperX, Sony or Turtle Beach.

What We Could Not Verify

This is the most important table in this review. Everything below is unpublished, contradicted between Attack Shark's own documents, or unmeasured by anyone independent as of November 4, 2026. We would rather list the gaps than fill them with plausible numbers.

Open questionWhat we found on November 4, 2026Why it matters
Battery runtime No hours figure in the press release, the specification table, the marketing copy or the FAQ. The FAQ answers the runtime question with the pack capacity and the play-while-charging feature. Only the capacity is published: 1,000mAh. A headset you have to charge every session is a different product from one you charge weekly. This is the number that decides which one you bought.
Weight Not published at all. The same brand publishes about 230g for its $29.99 L60. Nothing for the X60. With a 53mm driver, an aluminium frame, a 1,000mAh pack and a charging coil, this is the difference between a comfortable headset and a neck workout.
Does it actually support Xbox? The October 29 release lists Xbox among supported platforms. The product page's specification table omits it, and the page's FAQ says "No" because Xbox accepts only licensed wireless headsets or 3.5mm, neither of which the X60 offers. If Xbox is your platform, this is a purchase-ending question, and the vendor's own two documents cannot agree on the answer.
Headband adjustment: three levels or stepless? The release says "three-level headband adjustment." The product page says "stepless… without fixed adjustment levels." A small error that undermines confidence in the rest of the specification sheet, and a real difference for fit.
Do the dock's USB ports carry data? "Integrated USB and Type-C ports" per the release; "USB-A and USB-C expansion ports" per the FAQ. No statement on data versus power, no USB standard, no speed. The hub is half the reason to buy this. If the ports are charge-only, the dock is a stand with lights.
Dock power, charge time, and heat Attack Shark claims "minimizing charging heat" and no more. No wattage, no charge time from empty, no dock input requirement, no temperature data. Cheap magnetic docks are where budget headsets fail. Heat is what kills a 1,000mAh pack over two years.
Audio quality, in any measurable form No frequency response, impedance, sensitivity or THD figure. No independent listening test, no measurement rig data, no microphone recording. The entire acoustic case for the X60 is a specification of parts. Nobody has heard a retail unit on the record.
Bluetooth codecs and latency Bluetooth 6.0 is confirmed as a version. No codec list, no LE Audio or LC3 claim, no multipoint claim, and no millisecond figure for either the Bluetooth or the 2.4GHz path. Bluetooth 6.0 without a codec list tells you almost nothing about how it will sound on your phone or how it will behave in a game.
The real selling price on November 4 Attack Shark lists $74.99 MSRP and $54.99 "VIP exclusive." One outlet has reported $199.99. The UK comparison page reportedly shows only a £1.00 placeholder. Our session resolved to Hong Kong and saw the $1 deposit as HK$7.85. Three numbers are circulating for one product. At $54.99 it is a story; at $199.99 it is not.
Amazon availability and price The release directs buyers to Attack Shark's Amazon stores in the US, UK, Europe, Australia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Japan. The $20 code is valid only at attackshark.com. No Amazon listing price was confirmed. The cheapest route is the brand's own store, which means the discount and the retailer in the press release are not the same place.

We did not buy, wear, charge, weigh or listen to an Attack Shark X60. No retail unit existed on November 4, 2026, the day pre-orders opened. Every specification in this review is attributed to Attack Shark, every price to the vendor's own store as observed on that date, and every comparison figure to our own previously published reviews. The 3.5/5 rating is provisional and will be revisited if and when independent measurements exist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Attack Shark X60 worth pre-ordering at $74.99?

Only if you want the dock more than you want measured audio quality. At the $54.99 promotional price the X60 bundles a magnetic RGB charging dock that doubles as a USB-A and USB-C hub, Bluetooth 6.0, 2.4GHz wireless, a detachable AI-noise-reduction microphone, 7.1 virtual surround and a 1,000mAh battery with play-while-charging. No other headset in our coverage under $100 ships with a hub-dock, so the feature stack is genuinely unusual for the money. The problem is that everything in that list is a vendor claim. Nobody has published a frequency response curve, a microphone recording, a weight, a battery runtime or a lab test for this headset, and the pre-order closes before units ship on November 19, 2026. If you need measured audio quality you are buying a promise, and a $99.99 Razer Barracuda V2 Pro at twice the price has a 70-hour battery claim and published ANC spec. If you want a cheap desktop-charging headset for voice chat and casual games at $54.99, the risk is small. That is the whole argument.

What does the $54.99 VIP exclusive price actually mean?

It is not a membership tier and it is not a sale. Attack Shark lists an MSRP of $74.99 and a VIP exclusive price of $54.99 on the X60 product page, and the page's own FAQ explains the difference: a $1 reservation during the pre-order window includes a $20 OFF code that brings the final price to $54.99. So the $54.99 is $74.99 minus $20, unlocked by paying $1. The $1 deposit is non-refundable, limited to one per customer, and the code is emailed shortly before launch, valid for one month from issue, usable only on the final X60 purchase at attackshark.com, and not stackable with other discounts or reward points. Add it up: $1 plus $54.99 is $55.99 all-in, which is $19 below MSRP, not $20. If you change your mind you lose the dollar.

When does the Attack Shark X60 ship, and what happens to my $1 deposit?

Pre-orders open on November 4, 2026 (PST) and shipping begins November 19, 2026 (PST), with orders fulfilled in sequence. The $1 deposit is strictly non-refundable in every case, including an unused code, an expired code or a change of mind, and each customer is limited to one reservation. Extra reservations do not earn extra codes and are not refunded. The code arrives by email shortly before launch and is valid for one month from the date it is issued, so if it lands around November 4 it will expire around December 4 — which is roughly two weeks after the first headsets reach buyers and independent reviews can begin to appear. The color you pick at reservation is explicitly not binding. Attack Shark's terms also exclude shipping to Turkey and Egypt.

Does the Attack Shark X60 work on Xbox?

Assume no. Attack Shark's October 29, 2026 press release lists Xbox among supported platforms, but the product page's own specification table lists PC, laptop, smartphone, tablet, PS4, PS5 and Switch with no Xbox, and the page's FAQ says plainly that the X60 is not listed as Xbox compatible. The mechanics support the FAQ: the X60 has no 3.5mm jack, and Xbox consoles accept wireless audio only from officially licensed headsets. Your options there are the 2.4GHz USB receiver, Bluetooth 6.0 or USB wired audio, none of which Xbox takes for chat and game audio in the way a licensed headset does. On PC, PS5, PS4, Switch, phones and tablets it is fully supported. If Xbox is your main platform, this is not your headset.

How long does the Attack Shark X60 battery last?

Attack Shark has not published a runtime, and that is the single biggest unknown in this review. The pack is 1,000mAh, which at a nominal 3.7 volts works out to about 3.7 watt-hours — a normal size for a wireless gaming headset, and that is arithmetic, not a runtime estimate. The product page and FAQ talk about extended sessions, play-while-charging and drop-and-charge top-ups, but no hours figure appears anywhere in the press release, the specifications table, the marketing copy or the FAQ. For scale, Razer claims 70 hours for the $199.99 Barracuda V2 Pro, and Sony does not publish a figure for the $99.99 PlayStation Pulse either. Until somebody runs the X60 from full to empty with the RGB on and off, treat runtime as unknown. The dock makes it a smaller problem on a desk than it would be otherwise.

How much does the Attack Shark X60 weigh, and has anyone tested it independently?

No weight has been published, and no independent test exists. Attack Shark's specifications table for the X60 lists the driver, diaphragm, chamber, surround, EQ, connectivity, receivers, microphone, headband structure, earpad material, earcup rotation, pivot range, lighting and battery capacity — and no mass figure at all. For context the same brand publishes about 230g for its $29.99 L60, and the X60 adds a 53mm driver, an aluminium-supported frame, a 1,000mAh pack and a magnetic charging coil, so it will be heavier than 230g, but by how much is unknown. As of November 4, 2026 there is no hands-on, no measurement and no lab data from any outlet, which is why this review is a pre-launch assessment of vendor specifications rather than a test.
