    Amazing sound, mic quality, light weight

    Light weight but feels quality. Adjustable head strap and super soft fabric cups make for a comfortable extended playtime. Easiy to go from wireless connectivity, to type-c without loosing sound or chat with friends. Then switch to Bluetooth when i am away from my pc on my phone and need to listen to something privately. Mic attaches easily and sounds excellent. Can be muted with the push of a button. All buttons are easy to push unlike some headsets with tiny buttons. Adjustable strap can be taken off for cleaning. All audio input and output, as well as the RGB can be djusted using the Ghub app on your pc, or download the app on your phone. This is. Much quicker method and you dont need to exit out of your game. The app is straight forward. Not that you need to use Ghub. Its pretty much plug and play. I can walk through most of my house and still listen to music on my PC. The only con i can think of is the price, but with the quality of everything combined, its well worth the price.

    Light and Functional but Detaching Mic is a Pain

    I returned another headset I had because it was heavy and hurt my head. This one has all the same features (bluetooth, wi-fi, wiresless, etc.) but is very light and comfortable. The charge is lasting a long time too which I'm very happy about. Unfortunately, -1 star ⭐ because the mic is not a flexible piece, it is a single hard piece that can only be inserted into a fixed position and removed if not needed... not very convenient if wanting to move it out of the way for just a moment or two. Mine is in the box for safekeeping, but even to show it for a pic I'd have to go through a lot of effort to unearth it. So my pic is just of the hole where it goes for it's fixed position. Adding a small joint piece could make it both a detachable AND flexible mic piece, it wouldn't take much extra to accomplish yet set the headset far ahead of competition. Something for logitech to consider.
