“I understand when used with a PC, 7.1 surround works great, however, when used with a console like the Xbox One or PS4, I've read many reviews that surround sound does NOT work... Can anyone confirm or deny this based on experience with either consoles?”

I actually just posted a headset review about this, myself. I was told by Logitech themselves that you CAN NOT get true surround sound on ANY console headset. Which is very misleading when they advertise something that says "7.1 surround sound wireless headset for PC, PS4, and Xbox One" when it' only actually gives surround sound for PC and IS NOT wireless for Xbox One. It was the G933 Artemis Spectrum, by the way.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Playstation supports Dolby surround sound but not 7.1. The Xbox does not. I will be returning these because they aren't wireless on Xbox one. And the sound quality isn't that good
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I've personally used it on the PS4 and hadn't had any issues with the surround sound. But the other thing a lot of people don't realize is that you can adjust the settings for the headset in the Logitech program you can download for it. This allows you to adjust the automatic shut-down for when the device detects it may not be in use, the light set-up, even if it uses the surround sound or not. I'd say go ahead and buy it, try the program and test out the headset. If it doesn't work just be sure to bring it back to the store before a week is out with the receipt. They're pretty good with returns if you explain the product didn't work the way you intended it to if you have trouble with the surround sound.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It does not support 7.1 surround sound on consoles because it needs the Logitech software to utilize this feature. Still sounds great but only in stereo on consoles.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have these for Xbox One. The Surround Sound works just fine. B.F.1. even has an option for Logitech G products.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The headset still has surround sound on consoles but not 7.1. You can still tell when people are walking up behind you or from the sides.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Surround works amazing for me on warfare remastered ps4. Also works amazing for me in counterstrike so it could be their game settings or sound controls you can change what it is ex. "Cinimatic gaming" or "first person shooter" fps is better for me personally.
