Customer Ratings & Reviews

Best Buy: Arrived earlier than expected, undamaged, brand new, accurate description When I bought it the headset was $27.99 on Bestbuy which was cheaper than other sellers and is an excellent Price for above average starter headphones. Logitech G332: 3.6/5 on mic, 3.8/5 on sound quality, Overall 3.7/5 These Headphones are a great starter headset, would highly recommend if you are just getting into gaming or are just looking for budget headphones that work great and are decently comfortable. Includes: 3 foot-ish wire connected to headphones, (1) seperate audio and mic splitter, volume wheel on headphones, UN-detachable mic, adjustable frame. (BestBuy has more details, please read) *Heads up: Although it says the mic mutes when flipped up, I have experienced that it does not it just muffles the sound so its quieter. If you are loud enough or the sounds on the headphones are loud enough, the mic will still pick it up.

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.

It’s good for a gamer I like it, I thought it was going to be worth it but it was

The Logitech G332’s are the newest budget friendly stereo gaming headset option from Logitech. These more or less slot in as a replacement to the outgoing 230’s. I am a pretty big fan of products Logitech releases – speakers, keyboards, mice, remotes, etc. My one sticking point has been the headsets – they just didn’t do it for me. I typically stick in the more budget to mid-range on headsets ever since I started using the HyperX Cloud series (Core and Alpha). In previous gens the Logitech’s checked the right boxes once I went up market, but that went against my ingrained frugality. When the 332’s came out it looked like Logitech addressed some of the issues I had with the 230’s, so I figured I would give them a shot. First Up – Build Quality Build quality, like with most Logitech stuff, is pretty solid. The fit and finish of parts is excellent. No sharp corners, or leftover flash from the mold. The headset is very light – owing to the liberal use of soft-touch plastic throughout the headset. An aside to that, I am skeptical about how well a mostly plastic headset will hold up, but that is just speculation. I am used to the all metal structure of the Cloud’s, so I make a mental note to be a little more careful with these. Logitech maintained the same frame structure from the 230’s – plastic super structure with metal slides to adjust the earcups. Unfortunately, like most plastic structured headsets I have used, 332’s (like the 230’s) creak a bit when putting them on/taking them off. Most of that comes from the pivot point of the earcup attachment, so it’s mostly just a friction squeak. The 332’s ditched the inline volume and mic control in favor of flip to mute, and a volume wheel on the left earcup. The mic boom is well made, and it holds its shape well when you bend it into position. The mic rotation has enough resistance to maintain the position you put it in. There is also a ‘hump’ to rotate the mic over – that is the mute/unmute point. You can rest assured that if you flip up past the hump, your teammates won’t hear you tear into that bag of chips. I only have one real issue with the build/design of this headset – the cord. The cord is loooong (2M, 6ft), and pretty thin. If you have a long way to plug your headset into you rig, OK this is a benefit. But the headset comes with a Y-splitter for PC gamers, so why not put that length in there? I want to use these with my Xbox, and all that length just gets in the way. The cord does have any attached Velcro strap to wrap up the excess, but that’s like bringing back the bulk of the volume control (that I was happy to see go). The thinness of the cord also worries me when it comes to the 3.5mm connector – the risk of premature failure due to shorting is on my mind (I have kids – they are not always kind to my stuff). I wanted to see a braided wrap on the cord that protects it more, and acts like a slight strain relief. I have some heat shrink tubing on hand that I think I might toss on just for some piece of mind. Second Up – Comfort I still think the Clouds have the headset comfort nailed, and are as good as you can get down in the budget friendly range. I doubly thought that when I tried the 230’s over a year ago. I have an average sized head, so I wasn’t pushing these things to their size limit. I didn’t care for the headband or the earcups – mostly for the mesh material and the padding being a little too stiff. The 332’s have mostly addressed this. The earcups are much more plush feeling – the leatherette feels much softer than the mesh and the padding feels like it has a little more give. This is one of the reasons I wanted to take another look at the budget Logitech’s. They aren’t as comfortable as the Cloud Core’s, but they are a lot closer. I can wear these for about 3 hours before I need to give my head a break – the top padding is a bit too narrow and it starts to give me a heat band after a while. If it was a quarter inch wider, these would be just as comfortable as the Cloud’s. Overall, much improved over the 230’s. Last Up – Sound For this generation Logitech ditched the 40mm drivers and switched to 50mm. Most mainstream headsets these days have changed over to 50mm drivers, so that is likely what customers are looking for when comparing specs. The jump from 40 to 50 doesn’t really change much – its mostly just specmanship. The new drivers do benefit from higher sensitivity (107 vs 90 dB), so they are a little more efficient with their power usage. Overall the 50mm’s should, and from what I can tell, do deliver a little bit deeper bass. The frequency response for these drivers is 20Hz-20kHz, which pretty well lines up with most headsets <$100. The Cloud’s have a little wider range (15-25k), but I didn’t feel like I was missing out on any sounds when I made the switch. I have used the 332’s for gaming, music, and conference/Skype calls. When using them for music, I wish they could have been a little punchier on the bass, but they stayed crisp and sounded good. Phone/Skype calls were great. Voices came through perfectly clear, with the only distortion coming from their end. As far as gaming, they worked out well. The leatherette earcups help isolate out room noise, so I can hear footsteps. These being stereo headsets you really only get the left/right spatial awareness, which is fine for most games. I have the Dolby Atmos for headphones app on my Xbox, so I can do simulated surround. The 332’s handle it just fine, and it gives them an extra bump in capabilities. The mic is also great. I’ve never had an issue with a Logitech mic. It does a good job of keeping out background noise – not as good as a puffball on the end would do, but still pretty good. My voice comes through crisp and clear with no distortion or pitch-i-ness. Other thoughts The 332’s really look like they took some of the issues with the 230’s and addressed them as best as they could while maintaining the same price point. I like that they toned down the color accents on these – the 230’s always looked a bit too flashy for me. The look is more understated and refined while still obviously being gamer headsets. I’m perfectly OK with that. I also like that they maintained the rotating earcups. These are so much easier to stick into my work bag because they can lay flat. There is a trade off with the plushier leatherette earcups. You get a little more comfort as well as good noise isolation, but in return you get hot ears. I never have that problem with my mesh cupped headphones, but then I must live with the background noise. Conclusion Logitech’s newest budget headset offering is a pretty good one. They provide a good value at the price point, and I think they have competitive specs. They are an improvement over the previous gen 230’s in both comfort and styling. I like that they kicked the inline controls out in favor of the earcup controls. The sound quality is good, and maybe a touch better than I expected for an entry level offering. My only gripes come down to the squeaky plastic (small gripe), and the cord (little bigger). However, if you treat these headphones well, and not chuck them in a rage quit they should hold up fine.

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.

Pretty good headset for gaming. I used these on my PS4 and the sounds quality is quite impressive. The large speakers give good sound quality and a pleasant thump on those explosions and machine gun fire. I was playing some RDR2 and COD: Modern Warfare and the headphones sounded pretty good. Headphones come as shown along with a splitter. They have a good weight and can be used for long periods without any discomfort. For those with big heads like me, these fit just fine with no pinching at the top like some other headphones do. I used these on my PC as well and sound better simply due to the fact I'm able change EQ settings. Other then that, they work just great on either console or PC. These are wired so sometimes you'll hear some vibrations from the cord if you move around. Would've been nice if these were bluetooth but, considering the price, I think these are great for all around 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.

The Logitech G635 is a gaming headset that is designed with PC gamers in mind. The headset is comfortable and can be worn for extended play sessions. The design is slightly bulky, but not a major complaint. The headset connects to your gaming device either through a USB or 3.5mm cable. Most of the features of this headset require the use of the USB cable. The 7.1 surround sound, microphone mute and volume control buttons, as well as the 3 programmable buttons all need the USB connection to function at all. Unfortunately, this means that while using the 3.5mm cable as the connection on the Xbox and PS4 controllers and the Nintendo Switch system itself, you lose access to these features. So while playing on console, you get a fairly bare bones experience. The sound is good, but lacking when missing the surround sound, and the inability to mute your microphone or change the volume can be frustrating. Which is why I say this is probably best suited for PC gamers who will be using the USB connector. I highly recommend it as a mid-range gaming headset. If you plan on using this primarily via 3.5mm cable for console gaming, just know that you will be giving up most of the advertised features of the headset.

Logitech is not new when it comes to gaming headsets, they make excellent products and these have their marked on it. I own several headsets from wire to wireless, surround and stereos, from different vendors and now these. This wire Logitech G332 headset is very well built, light, comfortable and has a nice modern design. The sound quality on these is pretty good, they are loud and clear, and the cups does the job pretty well by shutting the external sound. The non-removable boom mic is excellent picking up the sound, people heard me with no issues. I did love the feature to mute the mic by just pulling then mic up, it just not only convenient but also help getting the mic out the way when needed. The volume rocker is behind the left ear cup some people may not be fond of it but it just matter of getting use to. I found it very interesting and probably what makes this so comfortable is the padding on the overhead, they are little thick compare to my other headsets. The leatherette material used for the cups are soft and comfy when they pressed against your ears, that’s also thanks to the padding. Overall for the price these are very good all around headset for those who don’t care much for surround sound, and are looking for affordable headsets, they are Light, comfortable, with very good stereo sound. In the box it comes with the with the headset, manual, and a Y splitter cable.

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.

PROs: - Let's get this out of the way up front; the surround sound effect really is QUITE convincing and effective; sound-source localization and panning/movement was consistent and individual sound sources were easily distinguishable from surrounding dialog, effects, music, etc.--definitely recommended for creating an immersive gaming experience! - No USB dongle or headphone/mic splitter cable to keep track of--a single-wire USB connection to the headphone is all that's needed for the PC to see a 7.1-enabled device - Construction seems very solid and reassuring for an all-plastic set of cans; the cable is braided and the earcups fold smoothly and nearly flat to make storage a bit less problematic than some competitor's models - The boom mic becomes almost completely invisible when folded back up into the left earcup's housing--this creates the same clean, uncluttered lines as a completely removable boom mic without the frustration of having to keep track of that extra part - Once the boom mic is folded down from the earcup, a short, somewhat flexible extension is available to better position the mic for voice capture - Nice usability flourishes for those who use voice/chat--the LEDs momentarily changed color when the mic was muted/unmuted and in-ear tones also differentiated between mute and unmute when deploying/restoring the mic - Voice/chat intelligibility actually seemed high according to my online teammates--further acoustical tweaks for noise cancellation were also available in the accompanying G Hub software - Speaking of which, G-Hub integration was seamless--I could immediately customize lighting zones (back lighting strips and 'G' logos on each earcup) and effects, EQ curves and presets, onboard button behavior (cycle surround settings, activate game profiles, change lighting effects, etc.), and synchronize the lighting effects themselves (colors, pattern cycle, breathing, etc.) across the headphones and my other Logitech peripherals (currently the G Pro Wireless and G903 Wireless mice) - Includes a separate 3.5mm cable to use with a game console or other portable device (though in this mode, no surround, lighting, or onboard controls/volume are functional) - Sport-mesh coverings across the underside of the headband and over the earcups didn't seem to trap body heat at all even after several hours of gaming--earpads themselves are also removable and washable (very nice touch to help increase longevity/usability) - The stylized, trapezoidal earcups and openings were actually large enough and anatomically angled well enough to accommodate what I would assume is a "typical" ear--in my case, the earcups were fully circumaural and did well to isolate most of the outside world! - I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the musicality of the G635; though they give up just a bit in detail and articulation up high, especially when compared to a really good set of planars or higher-end dynamic driver cans, the hefty/beefy lows and low-mids still came off as "full-bodied" rather than muddy or bloated...though I wouldn't use them as daily drivers, I think they would be fine for most non-critical music listening/streaming CONs: - I really wanted to like these cans, but my chief complaint is the rather high clamping force I experienced during use--not sure that will abate over time given their sturdy build quality, but I found the inward pressure to be intrusive and even uncomfortable--I HIGHLY encourage you to audition the G635, especially if you have a larger head (though my hat size is only 7 5/8" so I don't think my noggin in freakishly/uncommonly large) - Along these same lines, the underside of the headband (and the earpads) are cushioned, but it doesn't feel like Logitech went with cushy memory foam--I personally found the foam choice kind of hard and a bit unyielding--that MAY change over time as these parts wear/break in, but at least at the outset, the top of my head had some noticeable "hot spots" after only 20-30 minutes of use - The other major complaint I have concerns the usability of the onboard controls--the Aztec-style angular buttons all feel pretty much identical along the backside of the left earcup--though it's great that you can customize what some of those buttons do in the G-Hub, it was virtually impossible to tell any of them apart just by feel so I was constantly doing things like cycling the LED lighting while looking for the EQ button, or muting the mic while fiddling for the surround toggle...differently shaped buttons, or raised dots for each button, rather than slightly embossed lettering you can't see on the back/read in the dark anyway, would have improved the user experience SO much - Note that unlike last year's iteration of the G Series headsets, these completely do away with giving you the choice of Dolby or DTS in favor of just DTS Headphone:X 2.0 for all 3D positional audio. Though I personally felt DTS sounded just a bit more enveloping with a larger 3D sound field than Dolby, sometimes Dolby 3D just sounded a little better, especially in less frantic/action-oriented games, with less reverb or obvious sounds of "processing" in the effects channels (obviously this sort of preference is going to be highly personal) - The mic is SO well integrated into the headset that it's actually very difficult to find with a single hand without having to resort to clawing at the front of the earcup to find the little indent at the tip of the mic - Speaking of the mic, it folds straight out from the earcup but stops at just a bit more than 90 degrees which, at least for me, put the mic just a tad too high up for my tastes--the boom ended up sitting just near my upper lip rather than below/beside my mouth; it didn't seem to have much of an impact on voice quality, but it lent itself to feeling just a bit "cramped" when deployed because I could see the mic along my lower line of sight - You get the headphones and two cables in the box--that's it...no bag, no case, not even a branded velcro strap for the unused cable--not a deal-breaker, but at this price point, it would have been nice to have a little something just to keep the extra bits organized Summary review: Bottom line, there's not much to get really excited about here UNLESS you're a PC gamer. Sure, the G635 will do the Switch, XBox, Playstation, DAP, etc...but only as a set of plain vanilla stereo headphones...the onboard LED lighting, customizable controls, inline volume, 3D positional audio, etc...basically everything that makes these cans shine...will only work on a PC (Mac, too, though I couldn't test that one myself) with the G-Hub software installed. Assuming that's going to be you--you might really like what Logitech has dished up this year. As a positional audio PC gaming headset, these cans actually do their job very well. The 3D soundfield is indeed expansive, engaging, and convincing, though I do miss the inclusion (and therefore choice) of Dolby's 3D audio solution as well. Last year's G933 wireless and the G430 wired (each of which I owned at one time) allowed the user to toggle between Dolby and DTS positional audio for real-time comparisons of the two formats--a missed opportunity, especially when you consider we're pricing/operating at the upper end of the G Series headset line. The extra LED flair is definitely engineered with the gamer in mind and is certainly cool to look at, especially when flashing/changing in sync with another Logitech mouse or keyboard. Just note that the LED color zones on these headphones are only visible to those around and behind you while they're actually in use--the logos illuminate out to the sides, and the LED strips only run along the back of the earcups. For non-gaming use, this headset delivers more than respectable performance. I personally found that stereo was more pleasing than simulated surround for 2-channel sources, even for music that would seem to lend itself well to added ambience/environmental effects (i.e. live concert recordings). Just note that you're asking a gaming headset to pull double-duty--they get the job done with some warmth and bloom down low without being overly boomy--I suspect the bass-heads out there will actually quite dig the G635's sound signature (which, of course, can be further tweaked to taste with some preset and custom EQ options right in the G-Hub software). Oh, and for what it's worth, the G-Hub's DTS "Super Stereo Mode" includes 3 options for further acoustic customization...none of which I could tell the difference between even after multiple, quiet room, eyes-closed auditions of several songs/movie soundtracks--your mileage may vary! Where these primarily fell short for me was in comfort and ergonomics. My head isn't all that big (I don't think), but I found the G635 to be fatiguing and uncomfortable after only modest amounts of use due to high clamping force; those with smaller heads might feel completely different. Given all that these phones do RIGHT, and that fit and comfort are very personal experiences anyway, my advice is to audition the G635s at a local Best Buy to see if they feel right for you. I also encourage you to run your fingers along the front and back edges of the left earcup to see if you have the same issues deploying the boom mic and locating a specific button as I did. Obviously these usability issues might get better with more practice and experience, but I always value a product that is immediately usable/intuitive right out of the box. Again, your experience may be different than mine which is why I still cautiously recommend this headset for someone in the market for a gaming headset.

I have a PS4 and so this plugs into the 3.5mm port. To take advantage of the listening experience when you game, you must set the output volume on the PS4 controller to the max, and then adjust the volume on the headset. So, in comparison with another headset I have with relatively the same specs, it’s also great with just a few differences. Here, you have a volume adjustment knob that is behind your left ear pad, which means if you had to adjust while your gaming, you’d have to make one hand free (left) and perhaps pause or “stop moving”. Some other headsets have volume knobs near the 3.5mm male plug going into the input of the controller, whereas it’s a bit easier. That’s just different and for this Logitech design, you would just have to adjust to it. Microphone works the same way (like my other one, flip up to mute and down to talk). The weight feels a bit heavier but not much. I would think it’s because of the leatherette used and also metal within the headset adjustment (my old one is plastic). Though I don’t have a gaming PC, it does come with an extra accessory of a USB male to 3.5mm analog stereo female, which this headset plugs into. So this can be already advantageous right out of the box when you have a desktop gaming PC with an available USB for audio. I do like the colors and it does compliment my dark blue 500million series collectors edition DualShock 4 controller. I will look forward using this in many new games to come, especially horror when you need to hear carefully; these are a must.

This headset is adequate for a budget priced headset. The sound quality is good. The volume control is on the headset not on the wired cord which I find to be a better design and less prone to fail than if located inline on the cord. This headset is large and fairly heavy. The swivels on the heads allow for better adjustment than many other budget headsets. I wear glasses though and find that my glasses will pinch some after wearing for anymore than about an hour. This may be one downside of any over the ear headset.

I needed a decent, economical headset for conference calls, but I wanted something that could also be used for gaming. Comfort was a primary concern and I am pleased with how they feel after an hour-long meeting. I wear glasses so there is a slight discomfort as the cushion push against them. But aside from that they are not tight and the cushions are soft and pliable. One feature I needed was the ability to use with PC USB and with a normal 3.5mm headphone jack. Comes with the DAC adapter for USB and an analog splitter adapter for phones/mic jacks. The audio quality for voice and gaming is fine. Other have said the mic is sub-par, but no one has complained about the quality on their side yet. I like that the mic pivots up out of the way and servers to mute the audio as well, but I would like another option as that action becomes annoying in a long call. Also nice that they fold flat for transport. Overall a good value and good performance.

It comes with USB adapter and a Microphone/Headphone splitter so you can use it anywhere the audio quality is great for such a low price and the fit is very comfortable. The only issue is I wish the cable was braided it seems very weak.

Good for the price, fair sound and mic works well. Got it for Zoom meetings not gaming. It could have a little heavier cable, but it works well for my use. Plug and play. Did not need any downloads. Would prefer not to need USB adapter but that is what you get. Comfortable padding on the headset. Not sure about 7.1 sound I’m plugged into a PC. Adjustable headband is nice.

Creates a great audio aura for gaming. The volume control is convenient on the left ear. Great gaming accessory if one is into gaming. Its worth the price tag was well considering the discounted price. The color is premium and it matched well with my Dell G3 gaming laptop which also holds a Black/Blue shade.

Bought this to replace its predecessor from Logitech. Older model was great! This one is slightly different. It is my opinion that the sound quality is slightly worse (lacking good base and midrange sound. The connection cord is much shorter than the old model. The older model had cloth earpads. This one is equipped with a leatherette material which is not as comfortable. Volume dial is now on the headset instead of the inline block. This is better. The mic on/off is now activated by raising the mic boom. This too is a good improvement.

My son wanted a new chat headset for PC gaming. I was also in the market for a headset as well. See my related review on the Corsair HS60 Pro. This G432 was the last one on the store shelf and he swiped it out from under me and bought it before I could do so. Somehow though, I ended up paying for it. Overall, he is pleased with the headset. It sound fine and the virtual 7.1 works about as well as you would expect. It is not true 7.1 but it does ok for spatial awareness and sound placement. The cord is pretty long. Microphone is not detachable. His only real gripe is it can get uncomfortable after a few hours but he did say now that he has "broken it in", it's fine. Not sure if he is used to it or if it truly more comfortable after some use under its belt. It does come with a 4 pole to two 3 pole splitter so you can use it with 3.5mm mic and headphone jacks. The headset itself only has a single 4 pole 3.5mm plug on it. He is pleased. I prefer the Corsair unit I bought, but I think it is a matter of preference. Overall, this is also a fine unit.

I purchased this headset to replace another Logitech gaming headset that was at least 10 years old. (As a testament to the quality of the brand, the old set had held up well and still worked, but the ear pads were beginning to dry rot. After I accidentally broke the USB connector, it was only held together with duct tape.) For the price point, I think this new set is quite respectable. The sound won't blow you away with its richness or surround effects but it's good enough on both counts for your typical gaming session, and the cost won't break the bank. This headset also works well for work-related phone conferences at home (Zoom without video), which was the other reason I bought it during the coronavirus quarantine. It's reasonably comfortable for this type of equipment, but I couldn't wear it all day long. Overall, I give it a solid B.
