If you want one headset that jumps between PlayStation, PC, Switch and your phone without ever swapping cables, choose Nacon RIG 600; if you need a simple wired headset with big drivers and a fit that plays nice with glasses, choose Turtle Beach Atlas 200.
These two sit at opposite ends of the same question: how much convenience do you actually want? The RIG 600 is the flexible, wireless, app-tweakable option. The Atlas 200 is the plug-in-and-play option with the larger drivers. Neither is "better" in a vacuum — it comes down to which trade-offs you can live with every day.
• Nacon RIG 600 — biggest strength: Dual wireless (2.4GHz dongle plus Bluetooth 5.3) with up to 24 hours of Bluetooth battery life and a 240g ultralight build.
• Nacon RIG 600 — biggest trade-off: Wireless means charging, and 2.4GHz playtime drops to about 18 hours; it also leans on an app for deeper audio tuning.
• Turtle Beach Atlas 200 — biggest strength: 50mm Nanoclear drivers and glasses-friendly ProSpecs dual-foam cushions, with zero charging to think about.
• Turtle Beach Atlas 200 — biggest trade-off: Wired only via 3.5mm, no Bluetooth, and no active noise control on the spec sheet.
• Who each pick is for: RIG 600 for multi-device players who hate cables; Atlas 200 for console and PC players who want a straightforward wired headset that fits over glasses.
The RIG 600's whole pitch is versatility, and the spec sheet backs that up. It pairs a low-latency 2.4GHz USB-C transmitter with Bluetooth 5.3, and Nacon throws in a USB-C to USB-A adapter so the dongle works with standard USB ports too. In practice that means you can run the dongle on a PS5 or PC for lag-free gaming, then flip to Bluetooth for a phone call, a Steam Deck session, or music while you're away from the console. Bluetooth range is listed at 30 feet, so you're not glued to your desk.
Comfort is the second story here. At 240g it's the lighter of these two headsets, and the RIG signature Snap-Fit design lets you adjust the headband across small, medium and large sizing rather than relying on a sliding band alone. The WC Padz ear pads use dense foam to isolate sound around the ear, and the cushioned headband is built to reduce pressure over long sessions. For battery, Nacon quotes up to 24 hours over Bluetooth and up to 18 hours over 2.4GHz, with a 2-hour charge time — enough for several evenings of play per charge in either mode.
Where it asks something of you: the 600 PRO Navigator app is where you get custom EQ, microphone sensitivity and wireless mode switching, so if you'd rather never touch an app, you're leaving some of the headset's tuning on the table. The flip-to-hide boom mic is genuinely convenient though — fold it into the earcup and it mutes automatically, which is a nice touch for anyone who forgets to mute. I'd point this headset at players who own more than one device and want one set of cans to cover all of them.
The Atlas 200 takes the opposite approach: it's wired, and that's the point. A standard 3.5mm jack means it works with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation and PC without dongles, pairing or charging — you plug in and you're gaming. There's no battery to manage and no connection mode to think about, which is exactly what some people want from a headset they leave hanging on a stand.
The headline number is the driver size: 50mm Nanoclear drivers, noticeably larger than the RIG 600's 40mm units. Turtle Beach builds the Atlas 200 around immersion, and bigger drivers are the physical foundation for that. You also get a uni-directional flip-to-mute microphone for voice pickup, plus on-ear volume control so you can adjust without diving into a menu. The 3.5mm connection is the most universally compatible audio standard there is, so this headset travels well between a console, a controller and a laptop.
Comfort gets real attention too. Turtle Beach lists a floating headband and memory foam cushions, and it specifically calls out patented ProSpecs dual-foam ear cushions designed for gamers who wear glasses — a detail most headsets ignore entirely. At roughly 280g it's a touch heavier than the RIG 600, but the floating headband is meant to spread that weight. Two honest caveats: it's wired, so you're tethered to your device, and the spec sheet lists no active noise control — the fit provides passive isolation, not noise cancellation. If those don't bother you, this is a clean, no-fuss pick, especially for glasses wearers.
• Best for multi-device flexibility → Nacon RIG 600. 2.4GHz plus Bluetooth 5.3 plus a USB-C/USB-A adapter covers PlayStation, PC, docked Switch and mobile in one headset.
• Best for battery life → Nacon RIG 600. Up to 24 hours over Bluetooth and up to 18 hours over 2.4GHz, with a 2-hour charge.
• Best for a cable-free setup → Nacon RIG 600. No wire at all in either wireless mode.
• Best for big-driver immersion → Turtle Beach Atlas 200. 50mm Nanoclear drivers versus 40mm on the RIG 600.
• Best for glasses wearers → Turtle Beach Atlas 200. Patented ProSpecs dual-foam cushions are designed specifically for that.
• Best for zero-maintenance simplicity → Turtle Beach Atlas 200. Wired 3.5mm means no charging, no pairing, no app.
• Best for app-based tuning → Nacon RIG 600. The 600 PRO Navigator app handles EQ, mic sensitivity and wireless modes.
• Best for lighter weight → Nacon RIG 600. 240g against roughly 280g.
In my opinion, the Nacon RIG 600 is the one I'd buy for most people, and the reason is simple: dual wireless is the feature you notice every single day. Switching between a console dongle and Bluetooth on your phone without touching a cable is a genuine quality-of-life upgrade, and up to 24 hours of Bluetooth battery means charging isn't a constant chore. The lighter 240g build and Snap-Fit sizing round out the case.
That said, if you wear glasses, hate charging anything, or just want the biggest drivers for the money, I'd steer you to the Turtle Beach Atlas 200 instead — the ProSpecs cushions and 50mm drivers are exactly the strengths a wired headset should have. Check the current price on Amazon before you commit, since that's the one number that can tip a close call.
FAQ
Not universally. The RIG 600 wins on versatility and battery (dual wireless, up to 24 hours Bluetooth), while the Atlas 200 wins on driver size (50mm vs 40mm) and glasses-friendly comfort. Which is "better" depends on whether you value wireless freedom or wired simplicity.
Yes. Its standard 3.5mm connection is listed as compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation and PC, so it works across those platforms without adapters.
Yes. The Bluetooth 5.3 connection lets you pair with mobile devices like iPhones, Android phones, the Steam Deck and Switch 2, and you can also take Bluetooth calls with it.
Both are built for long play. The RIG 600 is lighter at 240g with a cushioned Snap-Fit headband, while the Atlas 200 uses a floating headband and memory foam cushions — plus ProSpecs dual-foam pads if you wear glasses.
