A great lightweight gaming headset
• Extremely lightweight
Weighs just 165g, making it incredibly comfortable to wear for long periods.
• Solid sound
Impressive sound quality for its price point, although isolation could be better.
• Interesting microphone
No microphone arm, using beamforming instead ✔ Really, really light.
✔ Solid sound and acceptable microphone.
✔ Very comfortable ❌ Feels noticeably flimsy.
❌ Microphone could be way better You want a lightweight headset above all If weight is your priority when you try out a headset, the Logitech G435 could be a great budget choice. You play socially a lot, and microphone quality matters For pure sound quality, there are obvious compromises with the Logitech G435, and the microphone is middling. If you want a headset that’s light as a feather and consequently really comfortable, and you’ve got a budget that can’t stretch towards £100/$100, the Logitech G435 is a solid choice. In the wearing and using, it feels a little like it made compromises just to keep the weight as low as possible, which leaves it feeling slightly flimsy and with sound quality that isn’t truly the best in class. However, it does top our current favourite budget pick, the Turtle Beach Recon 70, in terms of style, connectivity and audio.
