Industry-leading AI noise-cancelling mic for crystal-clear in-game voice communication
ROG Strix Go 2.4 is engineered with an industry-leading, AI-powered noise-cancelling microphone for crystal-clear in-game voice communication. The algorithm draws on a massive, 50-million-record deeplearning database and tens of thousands of hours of training to accurately identify and counteract up to 95% of environmental noises. The upshot of this smart technology is that everything from keyboard clatter to background human chatter is virtually eliminated — ensuring crystal-clear in-game voice communication with teammates.
In addition to the bidirectional, detachable boom microphone, there’s also a hidden mic for on-the-go use. Both mics are equipped with AI noise-cancellation technology and certified by leading communication providers, including Discord and TeamSpeak.
Impressively fast charging, plus up to 25-hour total battery life for nonstop gaming
ROG Strix Go 2.4 is equipped with a power-charging chip that supports up to 5V/900mA input, enabling charge times that don’t leave people waiting. A mere 15-minute top-up provides enough juice for up to three hours of use, while the battery capacity itself is sufficient to power the headset for up to 25 hours nonstop — providing days of real-world use between full charges.
Exclusive airtight chambers and 40mm ASUS Essence for rich, pure sound and deep bass
With an exclusive airtight-chamber design and 40 mm ASUS Essence drivers, ROG Strix Go 2.4 delivers incredibly rich, pure sound with optimised deep bass. The arrangement creates immersive audio experiences to draw gamers deeper into their virtual worlds and ensures faithful reproduction of both music and podcasts and similar audio content.
