Our Picks
Best High-End Pick1 of 7
Logitech G PRO X 2 Lightspeed Wireless
The G PRO X 2 is the most complete wireless headset here: Lightspeed for low-latency games, Bluetooth for a phone and a 3.5mm cable for a controller, all around 50mm graphene drivers.
Best for
- Esports and PC.
Skip if
- Its weight is not published, which rules it out if you need that number.
Why we like it
Its detachable 6mm cardioid mic lets it double as everyday headphones. On battery life it sits mid-pack at 50 hours: the G522 runs for 60 hours, and the G435 comes in at 18 hours. It matches the G432 on driver size (50mm).
You get a detachable 6mm cardioid microphone here, which sets it apart from the G432 and its a 6mm flip-to-mute boom microphone. You also get a USB-A dongle with a 3.5mm pass-through port. On a PC, use the Lightspeed dongle for games and keep Bluetooth for a phone, since Bluetooth adds latency.
A 3.5mm plug means it works with a controller or front-panel jack; on PC, a separate mic and headphone jack may need a splitter. It was the highest-priced of the 7 picks at the time of writing, so the case for it rests on what it adds over the G735 and the rest.
Key specs
- Battery life
- 50 hours
- Driver size
- 50mm
- Connection
- Lightspeed 2.4GHz, Bluetooth, 3.5mm
- Microphone
- Detachable 6mm cardioid
Pros
- Up to 50 hours of battery life
- 50mm drivers
- Dual wireless: dongle plus Bluetooth
- Graphene drivers
Cons
- No published weight
- Costs more than the G432 at the time of writing
The catch
The maker doesn't give its weight; if that figure matters, the G435 weighs 165g.
Longest Battery Life2 of 7
Logitech G522 Lightspeed Wireless
The G522 is built around voice: Logitech offers a full-bandwidth 48kHz microphone alongside 48kHz/24-bit audio.
Best for
- Long sessions away from a charging cable.
Skip if
- Its driver size is not published, which rules it out if you need that number.
Why we like it
It weighs 280g and offers up to 60 hours with lighting off. Its 60 hours battery life is the longest here; the G PRO X 2 comes next at 50 hours. Its 280g weight is the heaviest in this group; the G435 leads at 165g.
Like the G733, it has a lightspeed 2.4GHz connection, while the G335 uses a wired 3.5mm connection. You get a 48kHz/16-bit microphone here, which sets it apart from the G435 and its a dual beamforming (built-in) microphone. It connects through a USB wireless dongle, so keep a free USB port near your desk for the best range. On price it sat fifth of 7, between the cheaper G733 and the pricier G735, at the time of writing.
Key specs
- Battery life
- 60 hours
- Weight

Best for Smaller Heads3 of 7
Logitech G735 Wireless
Logitech's G735 is sized for smaller heads, according to the maker, and offers Lightspeed, Bluetooth and 3.5mm.
Best for
- Smaller heads.
Skip if
- The maker gives no battery life, so skip it if that figure decides your choice.
Why we like it
Its Blue VO!CE mic detaches. Its 273g weight ranks third of 4 here, behind the G435 (165g) and ahead of the G522 (280g). It shares a detachable with Blue VO!CE microphone with the G733; the G PRO X 2 goes with a detachable 6mm cardioid microphone.
It also offers three connection modes. On a PC, use the Lightspeed dongle for games and keep Bluetooth for a phone, since Bluetooth adds latency. A 3.5mm plug means it works with a controller or front-panel jack; on PC, a separate mic and headphone jack may need a splitter.
Its price falls between the G522 and the G PRO X 2, based on our last check. Buyers who need a confirmed battery life should compare it with the G522, which runs for 60 hours.

- Chat and games.
Skip if
- Skip it if this is a deal-breaker for you: shorter 29-hour battery.
Why we like it
It has 29 hours of battery life. On battery life it sits mid-pack at 29 hours: the G522 runs for 60 hours, and the G435 comes in at 18 hours. It matches the G435 and the G335 on driver size (40mm).
Like the G522, it has a lightspeed 2.4GHz connection, while the G335 uses a wired 3.5mm connection. It shares a detachable with Blue VO!CE microphone with the G735; the G335 goes with a flip-to-mute microphone. You also get Lightsync RGB.

Lightest Build5 of 7
Logitech G435 Lightspeed Wireless
Logitech's G435 weighs 165g and hides beamforming mics in the earcups instead of using a boom.
Best for
- Long sessions where clamp and weight add up.
Skip if
- Pass on it if shorter 18-hour battery rules it out for your setup.
Why we like it
The maker notes it does not support Xbox. Its 18 hours battery life is the shortest in this group; the G522 leads at 60 hours. On driver size it ties with the G733 and the G335 at 40mm.
Nothing else here matches its 165g weight; the G335 comes closest at 240g. It is the only pick here with a dual beamforming (built-in) microphone; the G335 has a flip-to-mute microphone instead. On a PC, use the Lightspeed dongle for games and keep Bluetooth for a phone, since Bluetooth adds latency.
When we checked, only the G335 and cheaper picks cost less, and the G733 cost more. Battery life is its weakest area, and the G522 covers it better at 60 hours.

Best for
- Consoles and PC.
Skip if
- Skip it if driver size matters most to you; the G PRO X 2 offers 50mm.

You get a flip-to-mute microphone here, which sets it apart from the G432 and its a 6mm flip-to-mute boom microphone. It also offers memory foam ear pads. A 3.5mm plug means it works with a controller or front-panel jack; on PC, a separate mic and headphone jack may need a splitter. On price it sat second of 7, between the cheaper G432 and the pricier G435, at the time of writing.
Key specs
- Driver size
- 40mm

Skip if
- Skip it if you need to know its weight before buying; the maker doesn't publish one.
Why we like it
Its 6mm mic flips up to mute. On driver size it ties with the G PRO X 2 at 50mm. A wired USB DAC and 3.5mm connection is unique to it among these picks, while the G733 uses a lightspeed 2.4GHz connection.
It is the only pick here with a 6mm flip-to-mute boom microphone; the G PRO X 2 has a detachable 6mm cardioid microphone instead. USB and 3.5mm options let it move between a PC and a controller.

How We Chose These Logitech Gaming Headsets
Alex Morgan compared the manufacturer specifications, connectivity, warranty terms and compatibility of every pick. Figures come from the makers unless a third-party source is named; we did not test these products ourselves.

- What we compared
- We lined up seven headsets on battery life, driver size, weight and connection, using each maker's published specs. These are research figures, not bench results: 3 of 7 picks leave out battery life.
- The shared baseline
- All 7, from the G PRO X 2 to the G432, state connection and microphone.
- Where the specs have gaps
- The G735, the G335 and the G432 give no battery life; the G522 and the G735 give no driver size.
- Price range
- At our last check the picks ran from the G432 (under $50) to the G PRO X 2 ($150 to $250).
