They tell you a lot but not enough. E.g. I have a pair of Sony XB-900F or whatever, the bassy wireless earbuds. If you compare those to the KZ ZST IEMs that I have on RTings, the frequency response graph says the Sony has more bass response, but the KZs just have much clearer bass parts where you can hear each frequency properly, and distinguish instruments really well in that zone. Frequency response charts are just one metric. The only way you know a pair of earbuds is for you is if they sound good to you.

Picked this up for $35 from facebook. Was new in box, the black an yellow ones. I have a pair of way nicer headphones, and a blue snowball mic so these work great for me. The main issue with the other headphones is my glasses get pushed into my temples and it can hurt gaming after a few hours. These sound pretty good, and are the lightest headphones I’ve ever worn. Very comfortable
1:30 as someone who daily drives the black and green ones as my main PC headphones (and have for about a month now), I can confirm that they are so light that the lack of padding at the top is a non-issue. They sit snug but not too snug and are light enough that they don't need any padding, and that bit of fabric up top is all it needs, at least for my oversized head shape. :D

Maybe you're just unlucky, I have been using my G430 since 2018 and its still great. I'm actually interested in this new one because with a bit of tuning G430 sounds pretty nice too.
As a G935 owner who got a RMA replacement in about a year putting up with 6 months of problems, I sold the RMA pair so I'm back at $0 invested. If they can't make their top end headset reliable or decent with missing basic options in Logishit G-Fuck then they can gtfo with this garbage, I will say all Logitech headsets are garbage, end of story. Gamer headsets are a piss joke and Logitech isn't the only company making hot garbage, I want wireless but my options are limited to shit because 90% of solutions require shitty software that has 2 offshore programmers working on it.
Got these for $52 and change including Tax from Amazon and really like them. Most headsets give me a headache after an hour or so of use, these are nice and light as well as comfortable. Sound isn't the greatest but it's acceptable for $50. Mic seems to work well too.
Logitech has released a few of these colorful headsets in the last year or so which all fell between the $80 - $120 range. After all of the reviews and mic tests, I'm constantly more and more glad I went with Steel Series.
Logitech's headsets tend to have terrible build quality and the microphones are garbage, but the sound quality is usually good for the price. Unfortunately for me, if I want something wireless to be able to chat with friends on Discord while I do the dishes or something, they're the only ones that fit my small head comfortably. Corsair was by far the worst for me; even on the smallest settings their headsets would fall right off! Steelseries, unfortunately, wasn't great either.
It's really unfortunate, because they showed with the Pro X that they can actually build a half decent headset (even if they rely too heavily on Blue Vo!ce to fix bad mic quality). Yet all of their other "gamer" headsets suck all over. The SteelSeries Arctis headsets are better in almost every other regard if you're willing to shill out the money.
@@doppiovinegar1292 Arctis 1 wireless are by far the best you can get for the price. If you have a bigger head you can't even use the 5/7/9/pro, because your head will constantly touch the metal headband and start to hurt.
Ditched this option and got the 2022 Razer Barracuda X, has bluetooth, type-c hyperspeed and WIRED. 40 hours battery and Insanely good mic quality too. totally worth the extra.
Yeah, having Bluetooth and/or wired as a secondary source is required for me to think about getting one, not having the ability to just connect a pair of headphones to my phone is a deal breaker by itself, but is good for these headphones because they do that. Even better if it has a corded option like USB or even plain old aux
thats the reason i got the Arctis 9! They expensive for sure but they are great! both 2.4Ghz and bluetooth so it got great wireless but you can use also the micro usb and the 3.5mm headphone jack!
For almost this price point, I love my Void Elite. Very comfortable even with my eyeglasses. Sounds pretty decent and Mic is also good. The only drawback is, it is dongle only, not dongle/Bluetooth.
I just got this haedset, and over all coments saying the mic is bad en everything. I tested the mic and it's actually really good and sounds just like my voice. Idk what happend with your mic but i really like this headset. it's compfortble for my ears too. It is a little small, but my ears fit in.
for anyone reading, this headset is very good for like vr, and the battery is totally decent, you can go like max volume for like 6 hours on vrc and +11 with mid volume, it's not uncomfortable at all and very hard to brake, it feels cheap but only because it's all made out of plastic making it super light, and the audio quality is also very good for any kind of game , not for any kind of music, specially more bass demanding styles. This is my personal experience, I have this headset for over 3 months and I've had more then 20 different headset, this won't take the crown but I really think they're worth the value for like vr or like, apex (that I also play a lot)
forgot to mention, I also play assetto corsa with a 12nm wheel, and obviously I have to move a lot, and the headset won't move around my head, and doesn't feel annoying, thing you'd realize during tandems or things you rlly need to feel your wheel... so again, I have my Kraken X , blackshark V2 , arctis 1 and corsair hs55 still with me working perfectly, but I always go for the light wireless g435.
Logitech naming all of their products: "Let's start with a G and add 3 random numbers" IMHO these headphones look like these noice cancelling ones for infants
The three numbers are a 10-bit series of flags. Then that binary number is converted into decimal. If you want to know what type of product it is, just decode the dec number into binary.
Yup. Children's pastel colors. Could be a Teddy Fresh product with that color scheme. Oliver Tree is amazing by the way, I love his music and creativity.
I use these for my WFH/Gaming set up and theyre fantastic! I switch between bluetooth and LightSpeed when im changing between my work laptop and my PC. Only charge them once to twice a week for 40 hrs use. Battery stacks up man
I want to get these but i’m worried clients won’t be able to hear me since the mic doesn’t extend. do you find that you have to talk louder for people to hear you?
for $80 everyone should just get the cloud ii's... sound great and are the most comfortable headphones i've ever had.. this is coming from someone who owns headphones that cost $500 and $300
why are there so many people saying they're comfortable with fake leather, do you all change pads? Fake leather your ears literally die, i don't get these comments, can you explain? I'd buy them but i don't want leather on my fukin ears
@@Galexlol dude, they're so good trust me. I got the alpha s and they have fake leather. But if you hate that they also come with fabric cups. But they bleed sound a bit if you use the fabric ones
I disagree with most the things said here. Comfort on these is superb! They weigh only 160 grams, which is less than half as much as most of its competitors. Combined with a relatively high clamping force, they sit on my head extremely securely. I wear them 12 hours straight without issues, where I would get a headache with Sony XM3s or Astro A50s. Build quality is great (plastic sure is a great material) but might not appeal to the 'premium feel' crowd. Sound is dogshit on mine. Lot's of static and compression artifacts. It's a real shame.
@@techconclave6201 Trash, but good enough for Teamchat and Zoom. Can be improved in post with something like Nvidia Broadcast. I like how out of the way it is. A lot of Wireless headsets have huge boom mics that are always dangling around but still sound like shit. At least this one doesn't bother me. If sound quality is important there isn't a single wireless headset that can do the job so I'd just use a condenser or a modmic.
i think this is one of those situations where "saving money" on a cheaper wireless headset is gonna end up costing you money when these fall apart quickly
I bought a set of USB-wired Logitech G635s for $80-90 and I'm very happy with them. The microphone is very good, though the same can't be said for the Bluetooth G635s. The USB G635s also sound very good compared to other headsets I've had, which admittedly have all been of the "budget" variety, and the virtual 7.1 surround can completely change a gaming experience in a positive way when supported well. Finally, they'll fit on at least 95% of people's heads comfortably; the ear cushions are even large enough to support up to 1 inch gauge piercings, which was a vital selling point for me.
Based on reviews, the microphone test in this review seems to be an anomaly - there's no clipping or distortion on others. It's a tad disappointing this wasn't given more time, the sound as shown in this vid implies that they're unacceptably bad in terms of microphone quality when that's not true.
Burned down JVC HA-S660 for the win, a bit bassy before the burndown, absolutelly perfect afterwards, coupled with a cheap desktop mic, it makes for a fantastic experience.
For less than $80 I picked up the void pro wireless from a few years ago. They're a bit dated these days with micro USB charging and the wireless range seems to be diminishing, the boom mic no longer holds upright, but they're 4 years old. The microphone quality is much better sound quality and comfort is fine.
I dont understand why would anyone get this except for the weight? You can get the corsair void elite wireless and hs70 for the same price. And they are much more comfortable. Especially the void
Bluetooth + 2.4ghz is typically found on much pricier set of headphones. Some people just want an all-in-one especially those who aren't super picky about audio quality.
@@nicholaschan2982 i get it. i just don’t ever feel the need to get up and continue listening to the content from my pc. i also produce music so kind of a double win for me personally
It's more that it's budget for headphones. Basically anything under $200 is considered budget for headphones. High end ones can be super expensive. In the thousands of dollars expensive.
@@TheWeeJet Yeah nope, 200 dollar headphones are considered expensive by most people, just because some people on head-fi have weird definition of budget doesn't change that. "High end ones can be super expensive. In the thousands of dollars expensive." By this logic a 100 dollar power cable is budget since 2000 dollar power cables exist.
@@TheWeeJet tell me you're an audio elitist without telling me you're an audio elitist no normal person thinks a $200 headset is budget. and anyone thinking that's budget has clearly been scammed by other companies
For anyone looking at that Sub-$100 range, the wireless Corsair HS70 Pros can be had for ~$80 most of the time. Well worth their price and deliver on everything they say. Honestly most of the Corsair headsets have been top notch and have been my primary headsets for years.
I mean, you do pay a premium for the wireless, I totally understand that. But even so, they do not sound that great. Logitech can make good audio products in the higher end price-range, but for the budget and mid-range they are still quite a bit behind.
I got a pair of these today, I have to say I think they've changed a few things cos my ear cups are big... Also my mic and sound are absolutely spot on
Yeah. 80$ is still wired territory. You can't expect good wireless headset at 80$ unless they use some cheap parts. Comfort is something very important especially for hardcore gamers. Cooler master provide some really good headsets with good mic around 50$ - 80$ price range.
@@falcon3169 That’s what I was thinking. You can get a pair of solid-ass wired headphones for $80 rather than sacrifice quality for wireless at the same price.

I wish sennheiser wasn't selling their consumer stuff off, you could get headphones for like 20$ less that murdered anything in Logitechs "gamer" line of products
For clarification: Sennheiser is selling off it's consumer brand yes, but they are still being made in Germany and they will still continue to make headphones. Realistically, it's more of an upper management change more than anything. Great interview on DMS' channel ua-cam.com/video/PC4HUvQvago/v-deo.html
Seinhesser consumer products will still be sold. Nothing is really changing other than someone else will make them. Seinhesser will still be working with the new company to design the products but won't be making the products themselves
so i have them now, and they are incredibly, like incredibly comfortable. not sure what everybody here is talking about. they sound great too. microphone, yeah its alright. there are much more expensive headphones that sound much worse than these.
@@yogaastuparamaartha1167 they are so light, that the headband is virtually irrelevant. there isnt really any pressure on that part anyway. i can feel them touching my head/hair, but thats about it. the reviewer says "your ear are gonna be touching plastic" which is not true for me. i have pretty regular ears - not standing away from the head too much, but also not completely flat on my head, and they dont touch the plastic on the inside. so its not relevant that there is no padding on the inside either.
i guess anybody can buy another microphone because everyone knows that wireless headset microphone is worst even the high end, but people still complaining about the microphone lol
@@murfad actually im tend to buy the arctis 1 wireless, but then heard that switch can use audio bluetooth is a win win for me having bluetooth for pc, phone, switch, and usb dongle for playstation
@@Draxxter27 as i wrote in my initial comment, the microphone is perfectly fine. no one has ever complained that they cant understand me or that i sound particularly bad. its ok.
I bought these on clearance towards April, it didn't impress me all that much. The first time i used the mic during a Splatfest to chat with my friends on Discord and immediately noticed that the mic was picking up everything around me. The Astro A10 i bought on sale was just better overall.
For all those here in early January 2023, the white ones and the blue ones are on sale for 29.99. My Corsair Virtuoso SE's just died unfortunately. Just ordered these for a quick replacement until i can afford another pair of Virtuoso's. lol For $30 bucks, these seem like the best wireless choice.
I have an old pair of Logitech(G935) wireless headphones with a boom mic and it's really good. Like I get complements about how good it sounds. 6:10 THAT MIC WAS TERRIBLE! omg no that's not ok. Idk how common it is for the G935 to drop to $99 in a post covid world, but it's a good value even at its MSRP. And it has a user replaceable battery.
If you want budget headphones but still want great sound you really can't beat the Koss kph30i. Comes with a mic and limited lifetime warranty. I love these for everyday listening.
Paying for “carbon offsets” has got to be the best scam ever created. The ignorance of people fooled into thinking they’re making a difference is astounding.
"not strange for a cheap pair of headphones" wtf its 80 dollars. That's far from cheap. Unless you compare it to some studio headphones but who would do that?
i got the same headset from amazon that was on sale for aroudn 30 dollars, and bought it, sounds better then my airpods which i spent about 150 dollars on, and is overall a very good headset and the only complaint is the lack of adjustability for the head
ah those were the ones that look FUCKIN COMFORTABLE along with the q701, i put them in a list while searching. Since people here are actually gamers and not brainwashed, would you consider them good on the leaking part? I've people sleeping in the same room but i HATE closed headphones. I'm using KSC75 right now, i loved the carcharias back in the day. You have any suggestions?
@@Galexlol They're open so no they aren't great at keeping sound in but at the same time not super leaky. Depends how loud you like to listen and how sensitive the others in the room are.
I feel that even though the headset was super light. The fact that you have 2 plastic bars directly against your head made them very uncomfortable after a while, and I had to return them. If Logitech only would put some thin padding on these, they would be super comfortable.
Nothing seems all that appealing to these headphones aside from the fact it has Bluetooth. If you want good headphones for not too much, get a second hand pair of audiophile headphones such as the HD598 or DT 770 Pros. They sound better, last longer, look better and have far better build quality, while not running you that much more second hand. And reusing an old pair of headphones is more environmentally friendly then buying 22% recycled ones 10 times out of 10.
@@vadnegru I can run both my HD598s and DT770 Pros with/without dac and as long as you don’t want to blow your eardrums out, and you’re not an audio snob, you’ll be fine with most PCs aux ports. I have AirPods Max and I like Bluetooth headphones as much as any other guy; but you know what helps a lot more then bluetooth? Having significantly wider soundstage, better sound quality, longer longevity and superior build quality.
@@vadnegru Oh I think there’s a misunderstanding, I just don’t think the only positive (being the wireless capability) of this specific headset over any other in its price range justifies the price. I love me some wireless gaming gear, but what I don’t like are extremely overpriced and underperforming wireless gaming gear for the price.
dude, i've got me the soundcore Q30s for 70 dollars, they don't need no dongle, have a hugely better build quality and comfort, has a pretty good mic for a headphone, way more battery capacity, ACTIVE noise cancelling and aux cable input. i can game on them totally fine, ther's no noticeable lag nor mic glitches. YIKES for logitech.
In Australia, these are considered a mid-range headset because they retail at a whopping $199AUD or thereabouts. *Edit* I just tried the G435 and they are pretty bad compared to my Corsair Void Pro which I have purchased for years and at the exact same price of $199. The bass is poor and the mic almost torments those who are on the other end of your VC with lots of what is considered background static while I am in a quiet room.
I bought a Razer Seiren mini for ~50 bucks and a Samson Sr850 semi open back for ~35 bucks. The setups is abit more cabley and stuff, but it does audio way better than what this seems to be

If you have a bigger head you can't even use the 5/7/9/pro, because your head will constantly touch the metal headband and start to hurt.
@@KraljHD thanks man, I'm torn between getting the most expensive one, I'll go with the 1 I don't care that much about audio quality
Ditched this option and got the 2022 Razer Barracuda X, has bluetooth, type-c hyperspeed and WIRED. 40 hours battery and Insanely good mic quality too. totally worth the extra.
Yeah, having Bluetooth and/or wired as a secondary source is required for me to think about getting one, not having the ability to just connect a pair of headphones to my phone is a deal breaker by itself, but is good for these headphones because they do that.
Even better if it has a corded option like USB or even plain old aux
thats the reason i got the Arctis 9! They expensive for sure but they are great! both 2.4Ghz and bluetooth so it got great wireless but you can use also the micro usb and the 3.5mm headphone jack!
I use Type-C dongle, Bluetooth is always have some delay in it.
Hs70 Bluetooth.
It does have Bluetooth I think
For almost this price point, I love my Void Elite. Very comfortable even with my eyeglasses. Sounds pretty decent and Mic is also good. The only drawback is, it is dongle only, not dongle/Bluetooth.
ive been using my void elites for 4 years and i love them. i was able to get the g435 for 17 on amazon as a backup/replacement
I just got this haedset, and over all coments saying the mic is bad en everything. I tested the mic and it's actually really good and sounds just like my voice. Idk what happend with your mic but i really like this headset. it's compfortble for my ears too. It is a little small, but my ears fit in.
for anyone reading, this headset is very good for like vr, and the battery is totally decent, you can go like max volume for like 6 hours on vrc and +11 with mid volume, it's not uncomfortable at all and very hard to brake, it feels cheap but only because it's all made out of plastic making it super light, and the audio quality is also very good for any kind of game , not for any kind of music, specially more bass demanding styles. This is my personal experience, I have this headset for over 3 months and I've had more then 20 different headset, this won't take the crown but I really think they're worth the value for like vr or like, apex (that I also play a lot)
forgot to mention, I also play assetto corsa with a 12nm wheel, and obviously I have to move a lot, and the headset won't move around my head, and doesn't feel annoying, thing you'd realize during tandems or things you rlly need to feel your wheel... so again, I have my Kraken X , blackshark V2 , arctis 1 and corsair hs55 still with me working perfectly, but I always go for the light wireless g435.
That mic really does bring out your inner Max Headroom:)
Logitech naming all of their products: "Let's start with a G and add 3 random numbers"
IMHO these headphones look like these noice cancelling ones for infants
is it a mouse, is it a keyboard who knows
The three numbers are a 10-bit series of flags. Then that binary number is converted into decimal. If you want to know what type of product it is, just decode the dec number into binary.
@@NonsensicalSpudz lmao same thought
Everything they make is a G### or a G Pro/Pro X. It makes the Series X|S look like genius marketing.
Oliver Tree called, he wants his headphones back
HAH
Yup. Children's pastel colors. Could be a Teddy Fresh product with that color scheme. Oliver Tree is amazing by the way, I love his music and creativity.
GOT DAMN r/rareinsults material right here
PLEASE DONT LET HIM DOWN
They have other colors go buy some headphones with cat ears on em….Fuckin cry baby ass people in these comments smh
I use these for my WFH/Gaming set up and theyre fantastic! I switch between bluetooth and LightSpeed when im changing between my work laptop and my PC. Only charge them once to twice a week for 40 hrs use. Battery stacks up man
I want to get these but i’m worried clients won’t be able to hear me since the mic doesn’t extend. do you find that you have to talk louder for people to hear you?
for $80 everyone should just get the cloud ii's... sound great and are the most comfortable headphones i've ever had.. this is coming from someone who owns headphones that cost $500 and $300
I've had mine for 4 years now, still working perfectly, just had to get my worn ear cups replaced
why are there so many people saying they're comfortable with fake leather, do you all change pads? Fake leather your ears literally die, i don't get these comments, can you explain? I'd buy them but i don't want leather on my fukin ears
@@Galexlol dude, they're so good trust me. I got the alpha s and they have fake leather. But if you hate that they also come with fabric cups. But they bleed sound a bit if you use the fabric ones
@@Galexlol might just be preference, I prefer leather earpads
Laughs in m50x
I disagree with most the things said here. Comfort on these is superb! They weigh only 160 grams, which is less than half as much as most of its competitors. Combined with a relatively high clamping force, they sit on my head extremely securely. I wear them 12 hours straight without issues, where I would get a headache with Sony XM3s or Astro A50s.
Build quality is great (plastic sure is a great material) but might not appeal to the 'premium feel' crowd.
Sound is dogshit on mine. Lot's of static and compression artifacts. It's a real shame.
what about mic?
@@techconclave6201 Trash, but good enough for Teamchat and Zoom. Can be improved in post with something like Nvidia Broadcast.
I like how out of the way it is. A lot of Wireless headsets have huge boom mics that are always dangling around but still sound like shit. At least this one doesn't bother me. If sound quality is important there isn't a single wireless headset that can do the job so I'd just use a condenser or a modmic.
@@hermanhuge6109 Corsair’s mics on the HS80s are insanely good, almost as good as a dedicated mic.
i think this is one of those situations where "saving money" on a cheaper wireless headset is gonna end up costing you money when these fall apart quickly
I bought a set of USB-wired Logitech G635s for $80-90 and I'm very happy with them. The microphone is very good, though the same can't be said for the Bluetooth G635s. The USB G635s also sound very good compared to other headsets I've had, which admittedly have all been of the "budget" variety, and the virtual 7.1 surround can completely change a gaming experience in a positive way when supported well. Finally, they'll fit on at least 95% of people's heads comfortably; the ear cushions are even large enough to support up to 1 inch gauge piercings, which was a vital selling point for me.
Based on reviews, the microphone test in this review seems to be an anomaly - there's no clipping or distortion on others. It's a tad disappointing this wasn't given more time, the sound as shown in this vid implies that they're unacceptably bad in terms of microphone quality when that's not true.
One thing I learned over the years when it comes to headphones is that if it has other colors other than black and white, it's probably shit.
I like how they look, i wish more headphones would go beyond basic shape with black coloring
Burned down JVC HA-S660 for the win, a bit bassy before the burndown, absolutelly perfect afterwards, coupled with a cheap desktop mic, it makes for a fantastic experience.
Just bought it for $32, it’s on sale on Amazon
For less than $80 I picked up the void pro wireless from a few years ago. They're a bit dated these days with micro USB charging and the wireless range seems to be diminishing, the boom mic no longer holds upright, but they're 4 years old. The microphone quality is much better sound quality and comfort is fine.
I like how you can just... Buy... being carbon neutral, for the most part lol
I bought these on sale on amazon for $30 and they have been working great. I've had them for 7 months so far.
I dont understand why would anyone get this except for the weight? You can get the corsair void elite wireless and hs70 for the same price. And they are much more comfortable. Especially the void
Yeah but then you have to deal with iCue.
Bluetooth + 2.4ghz is typically found on much pricier set of headphones. Some people just want an all-in-one especially those who aren't super picky about audio quality.
@@zagohcap not having to use icue is a huge bonus lol
It's great. The color alone and adjustability already shows It's for kids and girls and they'll love it. Buying my daghter one right now.
i think the main selling point of this is the bluetooth + 2.4ghz combo as there are much more expensive headphones that offer the feature
don’t buy gaming headsets. buy wired from guitar center for like $40 and never go back
Buy a koss kph30i and never look back. It's the perfect cheap gaming headphones. You can get one for like $20

@@apapods Yes exactly, and if you have a little bit more money to spend and you want a closed back buy DT770 pro
since when 80$ considered a budget item? O mY dAyz
I think it's just because they're wireless. Wired headsets are better for cheaper, you just have to deal with the cable.
It's more that it's budget for headphones. Basically anything under $200 is considered budget for headphones.
High end ones can be super expensive. In the thousands of dollars expensive.
For a wireless headset it's "budget"
But any headset especially wireless is bad (above 50bucks) imo if it's can't be tune on software
@@TheWeeJet Yeah nope, 200 dollar headphones are considered expensive by most people, just because some people on head-fi have weird definition of budget doesn't change that.
"High end ones can be super expensive. In the thousands of dollars expensive."
By this logic a 100 dollar power cable is budget since 2000 dollar power cables exist.
@@TheWeeJet tell me you're an audio elitist without telling me you're an audio elitist
no normal person thinks a $200 headset is budget. and anyone thinking that's budget has clearly been scammed by other companies
honestly i'll stand by the Logitech Artemis Spectrum headphones (G633/G933) have both love them still
Thank you. I feel as if no one knows about the 33’s. Truly a buried wonder.
It says this is uploaded a minute ago... been watching for 3 minutes now
For anyone looking at that Sub-$100 range, the wireless Corsair HS70 Pros can be had for ~$80 most of the time. Well worth their price and deliver on everything they say. Honestly most of the Corsair headsets have been top notch and have been my primary headsets for years.

But even so, they do not sound that great.
Logitech can make good audio products in the higher end price-range, but for the budget and mid-range they are still quite a bit behind.
That pink, blue and purple one looks like something D.Va would wear.
If you're good with a headset with a cable, just try MH650 instead.
I got a pair of these today, I have to say I think they've changed a few things cos my ear cups are big... Also my mic and sound are absolutely spot on
Wouldn’t it be better to stay wired at that price?
Yeah. 80$ is still wired territory. You can't expect good wireless headset at 80$ unless they use some cheap parts. Comfort is something very important especially for hardcore gamers. Cooler master provide some really good headsets with good mic around 50$ - 80$ price range.
@@falcon3169 That’s what I was thinking. You can get a pair of solid-ass wired headphones for $80 rather than sacrifice quality for wireless at the same price.

I wish sennheiser wasn't selling their consumer stuff off, you could get headphones for like 20$ less that murdered anything in Logitechs "gamer" line of products
Which midrange to cheap Sennheiser or any other over ears would u recommend?
For clarification: Sennheiser is selling off it's consumer brand yes, but they are still being made in Germany and they will still continue to make headphones. Realistically, it's more of an upper management change more than anything. Great interview on DMS' channel ua-cam.com/video/PC4HUvQvago/v-deo.html

so i have them now, and they are incredibly, like incredibly comfortable. not sure what everybody here is talking about. they sound great too. microphone, yeah its alright. there are much more expensive headphones that sound much worse than these.
can you tell me what made the pair so comfortable? because the lack of padding on the head band is a turn off for me
@@yogaastuparamaartha1167 they are so light, that the headband is virtually irrelevant. there isnt really any pressure on that part anyway. i can feel them touching my head/hair, but thats about it. the reviewer says "your ear are gonna be touching plastic" which is not true for me. i have pretty regular ears - not standing away from the head too much, but also not completely flat on my head, and they dont touch the plastic on the inside. so its not relevant that there is no padding on the inside either.
i guess anybody can buy another microphone because everyone knows that wireless headset microphone is worst even the high end, but people still complaining about the microphone lol
@@murfad actually im tend to buy the arctis 1 wireless, but then heard that switch can use audio bluetooth is a win win for me having bluetooth for pc, phone, switch, and usb dongle for playstation
@@Draxxter27 as i wrote in my initial comment, the microphone is perfectly fine. no one has ever complained that they cant understand me or that i sound particularly bad. its ok.
I bought these on clearance towards April, it didn't impress me all that much.
The first time i used the mic during a Splatfest to chat with my friends on Discord and immediately noticed that the mic was picking up everything around me.
The Astro A10 i bought on sale was just better overall.
ive been using the same 5$ earphones for the last 4 years lol
For all those here in early January 2023, the white ones and the blue ones are on sale for 29.99.
My Corsair Virtuoso SE's just died unfortunately. Just ordered these for a quick replacement until i can afford another pair of Virtuoso's. lol For $30 bucks, these seem like the best wireless choice.
This will pair nicely with my clown outfit.
For me it fits my head perfect and I tried over 40 type of headset and it’s really comfortable
Can you hear yourself talk in these?
Just got them today for $30
I have an old pair of Logitech(G935) wireless headphones with a boom mic and it's really good. Like I get complements about how good it sounds.
6:10 THAT MIC WAS TERRIBLE! omg no that's not ok. Idk how common it is for the G935 to drop to $99 in a post covid world, but it's a good value even at its MSRP. And it has a user replaceable battery.
David is such a great host!
If you want budget headphones but still want great sound you really can't beat the Koss kph30i. Comes with a mic and limited lifetime warranty. I love these for everyday listening.
Paying for “carbon offsets” has got to be the best scam ever created. The ignorance of people fooled into thinking they’re making a difference is astounding.
I spent 50 bucks on a pair of Sampson SR850, they're so comfortable I can wear them all day long. Has a great sound stage too.
remember that 80$ is not cheap at all tho
I think 50$ is limit for cheap and then starts low mid range.
For a wireless headset it's can be considered "budget" even tho there's not many wireless headset with this range price
@@rei_hsym begins with 100$ presented with arctis 3 wireless/baracuda x
0:52 First budget one yes. The G Pro X wireless headset will connect to your phones bluetooth also.
That color scheme looks like a Fisher price toy lmao
They look nice and all, but if the only thing going for them is the sound, then it won't offer a good all-rounder experience
Overrated audio products. In the sound department logitech only did great with the speaker systems, not the headsets.
Even with the speakers only the really cheap ones are worth it, all of their "higher end" systems are average at best.
The ps5 part could be that 3d audio is on. With its default setting it removes a lot of the high end.
"not strange for a cheap pair of headphones"
wtf its 80 dollars. That's far from cheap. Unless you compare it to some studio headphones but who would do that?
If you compare this to other USB wireless headphones, that ones will be cheapest.
smell like broke in here
i got the same headset from amazon that was on sale for aroudn 30 dollars, and bought it, sounds better then my airpods which i spent about 150 dollars on, and is overall a very good headset and the only complaint is the lack of adjustability for the head

"Probably the one I like the most"
That's the one I was thinking looked ugly...
Wow. This is one of the worst logitech product in a while
I feel that even though the headset was super light. The fact that you have 2 plastic bars directly against your head made them very uncomfortable after a while, and I had to return them. If Logitech only would put some thin padding on these, they would be super comfortable.
Nothing seems all that appealing to these headphones aside from the fact it has Bluetooth. If you want good headphones for not too much, get a second hand pair of audiophile headphones such as the HD598 or DT 770 Pros. They sound better, last longer, look better and have far better build quality, while not running you that much more second hand. And reusing an old pair of headphones is more environmentally friendly then buying 22% recycled ones 10 times out of 10.
Good DAC is required to get full potential. And going wireless is a whole another level.
@@vadnegru I can run both my HD598s and DT770 Pros with/without dac and as long as you don’t want to blow your eardrums out, and you’re not an audio snob, you’ll be fine with most PCs aux ports. I have AirPods Max and I like Bluetooth headphones as much as any other guy; but you know what helps a lot more then bluetooth? Having significantly wider soundstage, better sound quality, longer longevity and superior build quality.
@@setsuna1778 Do you sacrafice that much going Bluetooth? Most of gaming headsets have their own dongles and sound is way better than over BT.
@@vadnegru Oh I think there’s a misunderstanding, I just don’t think the only positive (being the wireless capability) of this specific headset over any other in its price range justifies the price. I love me some wireless gaming gear, but what I don’t like are extremely overpriced and underperforming wireless gaming gear for the price.
When I say Bluetooth I refer to wireless computer accessories as a whole, dongle or not.
I like the way David will call out garbage and praise good stuff with little filter. Makes for brutally honest reviews.

dude, i've got me the soundcore Q30s for 70 dollars, they don't need no dongle, have a hugely better build quality and comfort, has a pretty good mic for a headphone, way more battery capacity, ACTIVE noise cancelling and aux cable input. i can game on them totally fine, ther's no noticeable lag nor mic glitches. YIKES for logitech.
Jumpscare 1:05
In Australia, these are considered a mid-range headset because they retail at a whopping $199AUD or thereabouts.
*Edit* I just tried the G435 and they are pretty bad compared to my Corsair Void Pro which I have purchased for years and at the exact same price of $199. The bass is poor and the mic almost torments those who are on the other end of your VC with lots of what is considered background static while I am in a quiet room.
For $80-100 just get a pair of used xm3's.
I bought a Razer Seiren mini for ~50 bucks and a Samson Sr850 semi open back for ~35 bucks.
The setups is abit more cabley and stuff, but it does audio way better than what this seems to be
These reviews are pretty pointless without frequency response graphs.
It's weird because Linus has always been a go to for technical information - but when it comes to headphones you guys just rely on the touchy-feelies.
Like he said, this isn't a review... More like unboxing. They have LTT for in-depth discussions
G435 is a big step back from the previous wired G432 on the mic level.

WTH MAN JUST 24 hours ago I was literally searching if Logitech had released a successor to the G433 and BOOM!! Just a day later you guys post a video about it. I mean is this telepathy or something? Like 1.5 years after buying my last headphones I browse for a new one and just a day later Logitech listens to me and announces a new pair. I honestly can't explain how amazed I am, and probably sound crazy by writing all this.
Even just 24 hours ago, during my search, I didn't find a single mention of a G435 anywhere and was thinking quite a lot about how much I would love to have a G435 if it's reasonably featured and price, and releases within a few months, not knowing it would be way less than that :-). This is just phenomenal and I find it difficult to stop writing about...!
