Best Xbox Series X Headset Under £150 / $199

I can get the Arctis Nova 7x (Gen 2) for £179.99, whereas the Arctis Nova 7x (Gen 1) is £137.99. I believe the Gen 2 introduces the app features? Are they worth the extra £42? Whereas the Nova 5x comes in at the cheapest, £129.99. Seems to be a lot of recommendations for the SteelSeries Nova line.
