Logitech G935 WIRELESS 7.1 LIGHTSYNC Gaming Headset

Pros: -I like the headset, i got what i payed for, people actually badmouth the seller, first i was skeptical that i won’t receive my product because of the reviews so i immediately doubted them because they took 2-3 days to process the shipment, although this was normal because of the pandemic, took 12 days to receive my product, from us to philippines Overall Review: thanks hot deals 4 less, i saved money

Pros: Some slight design improvements over the 933, as usual good sound quality/battery life with plug and play for the price point with okay mic quality. Cons: No dolby digital (dts surround is horrendously worse). This can be solved by setting up dolby atmos while disabling the logitech software (not great) or pairing a 933 hub. Overall Review: TLDR: Would not recommend purchase on DTS’s poor sound quality alone if you intend to use the surround sound and don’t have a g933 dongle, or can’t be bothered to try and set it up with Dolby Atmos. I was 100% ready to immediately return the headset before figuring out the 933 hub option. As a preface, this is the 4th g9XX headset I’ve owned in a decade, I like what it brings to the table but there’s been some consistent design issues across all models (2x 930s, a 933, and now a 935) here’s my experience. Disclaimer: I’ve yet to crack open the 935 and cause any warranty issues incase something similar to the below arises. -The nut/bolt securing the mic boom has worked itself loose on all 3 previous headsets over time and eventually causes the boom to not maintain its position. In the 933’s case this caused one of the switches that controls the mute to get bent out of place disabling the microphone and snapping off when I tried to bend it back in place. Ended up wedging the switch with the tip of a toothpick until the 935 arrived (though still with spotty mic activation from the cable fraying mentioned next). -My first 930 was destroyed by my niece, but both the second 930 and 933 have had their microphone fail first, cracking them open shows that the cable to the mic jig is built at an angle that causes a ton of metal fatigue in the wire over time. In the 933’s case there was also some unprotected cables laying on top of each other that would contact when the mic cable shifted. I suspected this is what caused occasional static but the effect was inconsistent. -The 935 seems more solidly built for now but the sound roller concerns me. The 933’s was extremely flimsy and would slip causing it to not register properly if you didn’t move it slowly, or rocketing the sound to 0 or 100%. Worth mentioning is the 930’s power button was pathetically (and I mean “j-f-c you couldn’t have spent 2 cents more in plastic/metal?” pathetic) designed and was replaced with a switch in further models. So far I don’t notice any obvious build quality deficiencies in the 935. The above said I like what the g9XX series offers, great battery life (with plug and play charging, which somehow is still missing from some wireless headsets), good sound quality for the price point, and the fit (not a fan of corsair void). However I honestly had to do some soul searching before buying the 935 because I’m starting to get fed up with the design deficiencies and logitech’s (in my experience) fairly poor support for software issues (if I see one more “oh I’m sorry, I’ll pass that on to our design team” copy/paste response without actually offering any help/feedback). LGS/GHub would still fight each other for control of my 933 but I needed both of them to interact with all the headsets features, the firmware updater has no access from either unless you know where to dig in to the logitech folder. The updater itself bricked both the 930s and 933 about 75% of the time and I’d have to spend an hour+ cycling the updater or downloading separate firmware patches fixing them. In all, unless there’s a firmware update I haven’t received enabling dolby or you’re okay with one of the fixes I listed I would not recommend buying this headset purely on that issue, and would beware of the above if you do. As time goes on I will update the review if any build quality issues arise.

Pros: – Reasonable sound quality – Good feel on the head and ears, not too heavy Cons: – G Hub software is garbage – Numerous power button issues Overall Review: I was a longtime happy user of Logitech’s G533 and when finally that old headset started to break down, I readily moved to a 935. What a terrible mistake. The G Hub software will regularly interfere with Discord by dropping the microphone entirely after enough time in-channel (known issue, plastered all over Reddit and tech forums). One of my best friends also owns a G935 and we struggled with this for months. I’ve also had numerous problems with muted/muffled audio and bizarre fake-surround glitches. I gave up and uninstalled it entirely. Worse, the power button is poorly designed and will regularly fail to power up the right-side earpiece until fidgeted with (another known issue, widely experienced). Sometimes it also loses power to both earpieces and everything gets quiet until I recognize that the power button has slid 0.2mm out of the sweet spot and have to play with it again. This headset is absolutely brutal and a total disappointment. Steer WELL clear.

Overall Review: Great product, easy to install, the sound quality is so nice and recommand it
