Generation & platform
The scores rank quality. This is the other question: is the newer one actually newer technology, or the same platform in a new shell?
Same generation
The Alienware Pro Wireless is 4 years newer, but it is the same generation of hardware: nothing in the radio, the codecs or the noise cancelling separates them. The platform is level; the newer hardware shows up in convenience features instead - the Alienware Pro Wireless adds USB-C. For 4 years between them, that is a thin return - treat this as a restyle rather than a new platform.

What reviewers said
Alienware Pro Wireless
Its leatherette pads and moderate 310g weight aim for comfort during long sessions, while the 2.4GHz wireless option and USB-C charging add versatility for desk and on-the-go use. Sound quality is generally strong, but the microphone performance and a single SBC codec limit keep it from being a flawless all-rounder.
- Pro:Excellent battery life, especially with ANC off
- Pro:Comfortable leatherette ear pads for long wear
- Pro:Active noise cancellation and transparency mode included
- Con:Microphone quality is underwhelming for the price
- Con:Only SBC codec support limits high-res wireless audio
- Con:No multipoint connection for seamless device switching
Beyerdynamic DT 770 Edition
The Beyerdynamic DT 770 Edition are wired, closed-back over-ear headphones built to last, with a rugged frame and plush velour padding for long listening sessions. They deliver a detailed, energetic sound with a pronounced treble that some may find sharp, while offering solid passive isolation but no wireless or ANC features. Overall, they're a competent, studio-oriented choice, though not without stiff competition at this price point.
- Pro:Sturdy, durable construction
- Pro:Comfortable velour ear pads
- Pro:Good passive sound isolation
- Con:Bright treble can be fatiguing
- Con:Non-detachable cable
- Con:Average performance for gaming
