Customer Ratings & Reviews

Writing this review after 2 days of purchasing two other, more expensive and highly reviewed headphones that I KNEW would not be like the ones I purchased here. That's the difference between listening to others advice and simply reading the technical specifications of the manufacturer and knowing EXACTLY how the product is going to perform based on those specs. For $49.99 (plus tax) this is probably one of THE BEST purchases I've made in terms of value-to-quality I've made in a quite some time (this entire computer in 2012 as well as the longevity and outpacing of 95% of what's out there with 5-6 years ahead of it was probably THE best). Prior to today, I was using the Corsair Vengeance 1500 V2 for some 10 years and they finally broke for good. If you try to find them now, they've gone up in price, from between 2-3 time and even 10 times what I paid for them, no lie. They had the best processor for Dolby II, DTS & 2.0/5.1/7.1 Surround and the sound was clean, not muddy, not brash or too bright, and the frequency response was good enough to drop some bass through. For video games, you were hearing people in any direction, 360 degrees around horizontally, 360 degrees around vertical (above and under) as well as panning at any direction. Guy walking in brush and you could pop your head up and know exactly where to aim. Sounds in the distance and oncoming planes, tanks, whatever... and again, you knew at what distance and it only enhanced the visual experience even greater. So I salvaged them for a very long time, even using duct tape to keep them together... but like all good things, they come to a final end. Now the problem was, where was I going to find something that rivaled them and not pay an arm and a leg to do so. First things first and I knew I had to start with at least a 50mm speaker so as to induce the proper bass tones I needed. A frequency response of 20-20,000, (with companies like Sennheiser always advertising 12-44,000Hz, ranges that most studios neither use at either end as they are both inaudible, unusable and could damage 95-99% of the rest of speakers out there). But SNR is important and so at a sensitivity of107 +/-3dB and you're talking a very clean sound coming out of them. Before I even installed their G-Hub software (which enables all of the DTS surround features, as well as graphic equalizers and more) I tested these plugged directly into Windows 7 to listen to the flat response with no EQ. SMILES FROM EAR TO EAR as I didn't hear some muddy, hollow or low level sound that needed to be boosted (with an impedance of 39 Ohms (passive), 5k Ohms (active) why would I?) and then tried it with some EQ shaping and it was brilliant on both passes. At no time did I hear any distortion, crackling, feedback, hum or clashing of frequencies and the EQ I tested on could be configured for 15 or 31 band, with customizable settings on the Hz of each band. Installing the G-Hub software was easy, intuitive and worked without any conflicts (which is usually a finger crossing experience on a Windows 7 for most people... but my machine is lean and clean and free of bloatware or Microsoft's mitts on it). The testing panel for surround sound and with it's own EQ system were again, straightforward and the demo for the surround was excellent in that it lets you shape the sound that sounds best for your ears, per speaker, delay, distance and +/-db levels per individual 7.1 channel. Now, if this sounds like overkill to you, you should know something about me first... I have SUPER sensitive hearing and perfect pitch. So much so that I can pick out and identify sounds that are often inaudible to others. In fact, I had a 7.1 home theater system back some 20 years ago and I noticed that with some DVD Blu-Ray titles, there was a terrible popping sound, sounding more like the sound of "Ffffffttt" and only when the scenes were loud, action packed and kicking in the DTS surround or similar. It wasn't on every title, but enough that I noticed it throughout many titles. I brought the main unit to a local dealer as it was under warranty yet and they said they couldn't find anything wrong. I hooked it up and sure enough, it was still there. They tried listening again, this time with high quality speakers in a special soundproof room and with equipment that picks up electrical hum and other sound phenomena. The guy calls me up from the shop and says, "Sir, you must have ears like a dog because we hooked this thing up and every, single scene you said you noticed the problem, our ears in the shop couldn't hear it, but our equipment probes picked it up exactly." (I had written down scenes with times at where I heard the problem and was correct on all of them). He then laughed and said, "Would you like a job? Not for nothing, but I'd hate to have your sense of hearing, it must be annoying". Like you have no idea. Anyway, all I can say is, if you are looking for gaming headphones that can also handle sound AND, ones that aren't made for tiny heads or for teenagers and kids the same, these things expand quite a bit and don't make you feel like a vice clamp is on the sides of your head. The sound quality is superb and the value again, is what we all need in a product like this. Good luck on your future purchases!

I never write reviews, but this headset is amazing and I wanted to tell people to go for this one if you're on the fence. Ignore all the "professional" reviews found on Google searches saying these are just alright or mediocre. These really shine when plugged in via USB and Logitech's G Hub software is enabled. If you do not use the USB adapter and simply plug them in like normal headphones, they sound like anything else with 50mm drivers. Backstory: I have been running high-quality Sony MDR-7506 studio headphones for years and wanted to pick up a new headset with a mic built in. I originally tried some other gaming headsets in this price range, but I was never happy with the sound quality (especially looking at you, Astro A10...utter garbage), so they were returned. After plugging in via USB and turning on surround sound in Logitech G Hub, I was instantly blown away. These provide better audio quality than the Sony MDR-7506, which is the standard for many audio engineers. There is no reason to get anything more expensive unless you need special features like lighting effects / different soundstage. Downsides: there is slightly more clamping force than some other headsets. The foam pads are pretty terrible. Neither of these are deal breakers. If you want to make these 100x more comfortable, add Noisefighters silicone gel-filled ear pads with glue backing. They're not a perfect fit since the original pads are weirdly shaped, but the Noisefigthers makes this G432 more comfy than any headset on the market (I'm serious, these are now more comfortable than my friend's $2000+ Sennheiser's)...all at $100 total. 5/5 buy this.

These worked exactly as I expected them to. Although it says the connector says that it is USB these are a 3.5mm but they do come with a USB adapter so in the end I will be able to use these on more than just my PC. Sound is good. They are comfortable even with my glasses.

It is the perfect budget headset for listening to music and for any game you really want

I’m a avid gamer and I’ve been using tons of earphone headsets but they’ve often disappointed me as they break at the hunches or end up losing sound after a few months. “Looking at you turtle beach”. I saw the G430 on sale for Black Friday last year and bought them and they have been perfect since purchase to now. I also bought these G432 since they are an upgraded version of the G430 and they are much better than the previous iteration.

This headset is actually so good! It sounds amazing and when I mean amazing I mean it I had it for like 10 months at most and it still works find and I can plug into an Xbox controller, PlayStation controller and even a PC how cool is that?

Absolutely horrid if you’re using on console. PlayStation and Xbox users DO NOT BUY. No way to balance eq at least on ps5, audio input from a tin can. 1/5. Not going to give 1 star cause they’re decent on PC but still mid.

Great gaming headset, excellent surround sound, makes you feel like you are in the game, if you are thinking about getting them, I recommend 100%

Great sound and comfortable fit but only lasted 6 months. There are screws to remove the broken joint, but no replacement parts available.

I’ve had the original from 2010 it just broke so I’m not upgrading to this new version . I would say if you are Pc gaming this is a phenomenal buy for the price and the sound quality you get .

These headphones overall are very nice. However, I use these for pc and you need software to activate surround sound. I would imagine the sound quality is pretty bad without the Logitech software used to enable the surround sound. But I haven’t used anything other than pc.

The headset sounds and feels great. But....I've been using them daily for 6 months and the pivot of the rear ear piece just broke. Upon closer inspection, the Left side is getting ready to do the same thing. The plastic at these points is thin and has cracked and failed.

Good Quality product.Have purchased this item before.

This is definitely 7.1 Surround Sound headset, but to me, it appears to be the areas of sound, Front Right and Right for example, are to closely put together and, during gameplay, doesn't feel like 7.1.

Fits around the ears nicely not heavy easy to use lg software

The sound on these is pretty decent, but unfortunately, mine broke after just 6 months of regular use (I never dropped them or anything, I would just set them down on my desk normally after every use). I recommend looking elsewhere.

The Logitech G432 Surround Sound Gaming Headset is a good device for gamers looking to have an immersive gaming experience. I recently acquired this headset and have tested it out with a few different types of games, ultimately having my preference of using it for adventure, exploration style games where understanding surroundings and sensing directions of sounds is key. This is one of the great aspects of the 50mm Drivers and DTS Headphone X 2.0 Surround Sound. Good sound quality that is robust for the adventure experience. While nice for this type of game, other genres like sports or fighting games don't really need the feature as much. In those instances, the headphones become a way of simply playing a game without using TV audio. The microphone works well enough for what is advertised. The flip to mute function is handy and not a distraction while wearing the headset. In general, the headset is comfortable for long play sessions, having been tested by me for multiple sessions of 3+ hours without issues. I had no issues with pain or pressure on my head or ears and felt that the padding was good for the design. The main issue I had with this headset was using across multiple platforms. I primarily game using the Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch consoles. I also occasionally use mobile devices for gaming. While the functionality of the Playstation 4 and mobile device market makes this headset easy to use (with a 3.5 mm cable), the Nintendo Switch is another story. In handheld mode, the Nintendo Switch device works fine with this headset for gaming audio. However, syncing with the Nintendo Online service app via your phone renders native voice chat useless. This is a Nintendo, not Logitech issue. But still nonetheless, voice chat while listening to gameplay is not possible. Using the headset while the Nintendo Switch is in docked mode is also not practical, as there is no 3.5 mm audio port on any current Nintendo controllers. So unless your Nintendo Switch device is within 3-5 feet of you, it isn't worth using. Overall, my experience with this device was great on the Playstation 4 and mobile device platforms, while adequate to poor on the Nintendo Switch. If in the market for a gaming headset, I would purchase this device provided the platform I game on has functionality conducive to its use.

Let me start off with how comfortable the G432 headset is even for someone that wears glasses. I was playing Crysis 3 for a couple of hours with no ear pain or my ears getting warm. Normally with previous gaming headsets, I would have to stop after an hour to take a break due to either one of those issues. Normally Leatherette earpads are comfortable to use but they tend to get warm on extended game play periods. But whatever material Logitech use on this bravo cause they somehow managed to stay cool. As for the style, they pretty much look the same as previous models before except for the color scheme. I actually like the look of the G432 it’s not over the top and the blue earpads go well with the black scheme. For the build quality it’s good overall they don’t feel cheap. The only complaint I have is the cable it’s too thin for my taste and I would of prefer it to be detachable. So if the cable goes out the entire headset will need to be replaced. Now for the USB DAC dongle, it does feel cheap and every time I plugged in the cable it can hear a clicking noise from the inside almost like something is loose. It does feel hollow overall. Sound quality is very good when you take advantage of it using the included USB DAC dongle. They sound good without it but the effect is not immersive when using them with DTS surround option. Games like Crysis 3 campaign I can tell a big difference with and without the DAC dongle. The Logitech G Hub provides default sound profile for current popular games like Apex Legends and Destiny 2. You can also adjust the volume level individually for the 7.1 speakers. If you don’t like the default settings you should be able to find one to your liking with so many options to adjust. As for the mic, you can quickly mute it by flipping it back. Logitech did a good job with noise suppression even with a loud fan on the background my friend was able to hear me loud and clear. So far it’s been the best mic I’ve used for online gaming. Overall Logitech did a fantastic job on with the G432. They’re not too expensive and you also get tons of sound customizations. The complaints are minor mainly due to the thin non-detachable cable. Just keep in mind if you’re a console player you will not be able to take advantage of those sound profiles. For PC gamers it’s a solid pick up for a wired gaming headset.

Broke in half 13 months after purchase. Right earpiece broke off. It was great until I put it on today and snapped like cheap tableware.

After gaming with the Logitech G432 headsets, I've found them to be lightweight and comfortable. The padding around the headset is just right for a nice comfortable fit. You have a volume dial on the left side cup and it comes with a variety of connections for you choosing. You have the option of connecting via a splitter (headphones and mic) or through a USB adapter. I found that connecting them via the USB adapter provided better sound than just plugging the headsets directly from their audio jack. Im mostly into shooter style games and racing, and I must say that it's been a great audio experience with the Logitech G432 gaming headset. So far, the only drawback that I have found in the Logitech G432 headset is the need to utilize the USB adapter for a better sound experience. This can be a letdown if you are using them with an Xbox or other gaming console. In all, the Logitech G432 gaming headset is great for budget gaming.
