Getting Started - G435 Gaming Headset - Logitech Support

The Logitech G435 sports a modest design. Modeled like the company’s other G series headsets, it offers some of the same features – like soft memory foam cups, a lightweight frame, and adjustable ear cups in place of an adjustable headband. It uses Logitech’s Lightspeed wireless technology, offering a low-latency connection using a USB dongle. There’s also the option to connect to mobile devices via Bluetooth (more on that later). There’s also no microphone boom. The dual beamforming mics are built into the front of the left earcup. LIGHTSPEED Wireless: USB 2.0 port (type A port).

All with up to 10 meters / 33 feet in range.All of the G435’s buttons worked as intended. I liked how it emits an alert to let you know when you’ve muted/unmuted yourself. On one charge I got roughly 18hrs of play. And when it comes to the G435’s 10-meter wireless range, forget about it. I walked all around my house (two floors up and down) and never lost connection. The other hiccup centered on comfort. The G435’s foam ear cups are soft enough, but the adjustability of the cups falters. Because they only move so much, I had to keep readjusting them to relieve the pressure they placed on my ears. The cups would slide up ever so slightly over the course of a match or two and I’d have to fiddle with them before returning to play. Obviously, your mileage will vary here, but I imagine that the cups would have more room to move if the plastic bars were larger. They seem to stop at a point, where going any further would make them more susceptible to brakes, either from wear and tear or from sudden drops.

When you want to connect G435 to another device, you can still play at high-speeds with low-latency Bluetooth. And of course, you can also listen to music and talk to friends. The airy, fabric-covered earcups are comfortable and keep your ears from getting hot, but they do a lousy job of sound isolation. Unless you have the audio cranked, you’ll hear environmental sounds, and if you do have it cranked, others nearby will hear what you’re listening to. With my son wearing the headset and sitting six feet away, I could clearly make out the lyrics to Kanye’s Hurricane as he listened. Corsair Dominator Titanium First Edition DDR5-6600 C32 2x32GB Review: Abundant Capacity And Performance Plastic parts include a minimum of 22% certified post-consumer recycled plastic by weight, giving a second life to end-of-life electronics and contributing to a more circular economy. The Logitech G435 Lightspeed (cyan) sounds better than most gaming headsets. Compared to our house curve (pink), the headset under-emphasizes sub-bass sounds, and adds a little emphasis to bass and midrange sound. The treble response drops off sooner than we generally expect, but there’s arguably not many noticeable sounds above 10kHz in music, video games, and movies for you to miss. Lows, mids, and highs

How do you control the Logitech G435 Lightspeed?

The headset doesn’t include any built-in 3D features or software, but Logitech touts compatibility with Dolby Atmos, Windows Sonic, and the PlayStation 5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech. While that’s true, the PC surround technologies will work on any headset, so it’s a bit like advertising that a car supports highways. Testing Atmos and Tempest 3D, the audio feels more enveloping than pure stereo, but when playing Warzone I didn’t get the kind of enhanced positional information about enemy movements and fire that I found with headsets that have specific gaming-oriented 3D enhancements like the Creative SXFI Air Gamer and the Fnatic React+. The 3D effect is pleasing, but not necessarily informational. Microphone
