About this deal

The DTS Headphone:X technology does a pretty good job of simulating 7.1 surround through a pair of headphones. Nothing recreates a surround effect like a bunch of real speakers, but it really added a sense of depth and place to the creeping Typhon in Prey, and I could easily locate the origin of distant shots in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. When listening to stereo sources, the surround technology made everything sound a little echo-y and robbed of all clarity. This is true of basically every virtual-surround technology I’ve ever tried, for what it’s worth. If you’re listening to stereo-only sources on your PC, you’ll want to disable DTS Headphone:X.

To sum up, G433 is a good value for money as it combines flexibility, versatility, and affordability. It works well with PC and consoles, and you can easily plug the headset into your mobile device (Sorry, iPhone 7 users) and listen to music during your daily commute.The Logitech G433 is a great new addition to the crowded headset marketplace. The fabric covering will be sure to appeal to many, and although the headset feels a little cheap, it’s light and airy in use. It also sounds fantastic in gaming scenarios, has a brilliant microphone, and does a decent job with music too – everything the Roccat Cross wanted to be. The carrying case is a soft, zip-up pouch that comfortably holds the headset with the earcups folded flat. It also has room for both cables and the extra earpads, but unless you use some method to keep the cables neatly looped (we recommend hook-and-loop strips), you're inviting an annoying tangle every time you pull your headset out. Game Performance The G433 is covered in a sports mesh. Well, this is kind of a weird design decision, some of you would say. At a first glance, it is. However, the sports mesh helps you keep the headset clean. Trust me, this is a perk you will appreciate that after a few months of usage. The stains can be easily removed with a damp sponge. You can have your headset up and running without fiddling with the Logitech Software, but if you want to make the most out of the DTS Headphone:X virtual surround, you have to use the USB adapter and spend some time adjusting the settings to your personal taste.

Wired and wireless gaming headsets from Logitech G are comfortable for extended periods. Made from durable materials, PC headsets feature great microphones for communication with other gamers, and outstanding audio quality so every detail comes through. Frankly, the mic input level was a bit too low for me and I was disappointed to find out that there was not a boost toggle. However, if you use a PC, you can go to the microphone properties settings, find the Automatic Gain Control option and have this issue solved. G433 Sound Quality Logitech has a real winner in the G433. It’s a very good value, and provides a lot of flexibility for gamers who want to be able to take their headset over to the console, or out of the house with their phone or laptop. They’re light, comfortable, and sound better than most other headphones in this price range. You even get an extra pair of earpads if you prefer microfiber to Logitech’s mesh fabric. Gaming audio is critical for playing at your best. Gaming headsets and speakers from Logitech G deliver immersive surround sound, crystal-clear mics for voice/chat communication, and customizable EQ to acoustically tune for the best sound.

The Logitech G433 is a wired gaming headset offering virtual 7.1 surround sound, two detachable microphones and a unique fabric covering. Regardless of whether you’re a PC or console gamer, the headset has been designed to work without fuss, with easy setup and plenty of connectivity options.

I found it a bit challenging to get the headset recognized on my PC supporting Windows 10, but I am likely to believe the problem was on my end. Anyway, no need to babble about that. Playing games and listening to music with the G433 left me suitably impressed for a headset in this price range. There’s tight competition from the HyperX Cloud II and Corsair Void, but I’m happy to report that the Logitech holds its own. It’s the most versatile of the three, and its sound quality is similar to the Void, but a little less detailed than the Cloud II. Both of those headsets are much cheaper, however, and the G433 doesn’t sound significantly better. The versatility of the G433 can be seen in the form of the detachable microphones and cables that come bundled with the headset. The optimal configuration for console gamers will be to use the boom microphone and 4-pole 3.5mm cable, while PC gamers can utilise the included USB DAC for 7.1 virtual surround sound. An additional cable includes an in-line microphone – useful for portable gaming on the daily commute.I’ve been PCMag’s home entertainment expert for over 10 years, covering both TVs and everything you might want to connect to them.
