Great sound, plug and play

The Logitech Yeti GX is a sharp looking and high performance microphone. There are cheaper options out there, and if you already own a Blue Yeti microphone, there's little reason to upgrade unless you just have the RGB lighting.
It's a much smaller than most USB microphones I've used and takes up little space on your desk due to it's small footprint. It's small enough so that when you're streaming or otherwise on a video call it won't be seen, but given it's lighting, you might want to prop it up to show it off.
There's USB-C port on the bottom, RGB light ring on the bottom. On the back, the only buttons you get are a mic gain and a mute button. Honestly, it's really the lighting that sets this microphone apart from an otherwise plain black microphone.
I like that a red light comes on when you're muted, which is nice, although the light and gain dial are on the back. The lights on the gain dial will go red if it's too high and you have the option to push the dial in to hold the gain at a specific level (light goes blue) to prevent accidental changes.
It's purely plug and play. Plugging it in is really all you do to get up and going. You'll get great, balanced sound without doing a thing, although there are plenty of software options on Logitech G Hub to tweak the sound to your liking. G Hub is also where you'll go to change the RGB light ring at the bottom. It's a supercardiod microphone so it picks up the best sound when speaking to it through the top, and rejecting sounds from the sides. It picks up everything from whispers to harsh singing without being too close. It does a great job of not picking up extraneous sounds like game sounds and a clicky keyboard.
One minor hiccup was that I had a hard time getting Logitech G Hub to recognize it on my work laptop. It worked great on my laptop, just by plugging it in, but I wasn't able to to adjust the lights. It was however instantly recognized on my ASUS gaming laptop. It's a small sample size, and I wouldn't necessarily expect you to have the same issues, it was worth noting.
In sum, this is a nice sounding microphone with a small footprint that's dead simple to use (meaning you don't need to make any sound adjustments to get great sound IMO). Although I like it a lot, primarily because it matches the aesthetic of my Logitech gaming keyboard and mouse, other than the RGB lighting it does little to separate itself from the crowd. But it's competitively priced and has the sound you give to expect from Blue Yeti.

I never knew how much a dedicated microphone can have such a huge impact on my videos. Logitech made an excellent mic with this Yeti GX. Granted I would either use my S23 Ultra or my GoPro and never had complaints about sound quality, but as soon as I listened when using the Yeti, the difference was clearly night and day.
In the box is the Mic, Stand, an adapter (screw) if you want to use a boom arm, and a the USB cable. Setup is rather easy since it is just plug and play. I already use the G Hub software for my G502 gaming mouse and the PC instantly picked up the mic and was ready to go. The G Hub app is used for tweaking the RGB on the mic but I left it blue as that's my favorite color. It's just for looks and I am not staring at the Yeti when I am creating content.
Sound quality is amazing. Crisp and clear sound even without a 3rd party pop filter. Even when gaming there were no complaints at all.
As this is the first time using a dedicated mic, I was blown away at what I was missing and how 1 thing can make such a huge impact on content creation. If you are in the market, don't pass up the Logitech Yeti GX. You will thank yourself.

My family has been quickly impressed with the Yeti GX Gaming Microphone. Not only is it easy to use, but it has several features to help ensure that audio sounds great with no need for lengthy touch-up editing.
My son has shown interest in streaming and recording podcasts and we wanted a mic that would be simple for him to use (as he is still very young). He also requested a Mic with lights that would look cool if we ever decide to allow him to add video to his streaming content.
...Thankfully the mic was able to be used right out of the box. Even before I could get him to slow down and take the time to set up mic within the Logitech Gsync App, he was able to record a podcast and upload it to Spotify. I immediately noticed that the foam microphone cover was able to all but eliminate the pops and clicks of hard the hitting T and P sounds.
Once we set up the Microphone within the Gsync App - audio quality was taken to the next level. The software enhanced the audio quality and volume while eliminating the clicks of his mechanical keyboard and mouse. The scroll wheel acts as a manual gain control and easily adjusts the volume of the recording - which is helpful so that you don't have to place the mic right up against your mouth. With a simple click of the wheel, it locks the settings. I also appreciate that the scroll wheel features a light that communicates the following:
White Light: Mic is powered on
Solid Green Light: The Mic is actively delivering audio
Flashing Red Light: Gain level is too high and is causing audio distortion
Blue/Cyan Light: Smart Audio Lock is initiated
The Yeti GX is a killer option for beginners or experts as it captures incredible sounding audio. My only complaint is that customization within the app can be confusing. It is easy to download audio profiles created by other users in various categories such as gaming, or podcasting - but it is not clear what each of the profiles actually impacts. There also appears to be sound effects built into the app, but it is not clear how to actually use them in any meaningful way - such as assigning them as macros. But for simple, quality recording, the Yeti GX is excellent.

Another decently good Yeti mic…for beginners! It’s great for beginners with little experience with professional mics and great for young gamers alike. It has the cool factor with the led lights glowing around the mic and matching the rest of the space with lighting layouts. It’s build with good quality plastic, so it doesn’t feel flimsy or inferior to other mics in this class.
The mic is simple yet refined. It looks great no matter where you put it, but can also attach to a boom arm, or other stands, especially with its included stand adapter. It’s easy to operate, kind of like a plug and play and it uses a usb-c to usb cord. There aren’t tons of dials to configure and play around with on the mic itself. There’s an easy to reach mute button on the back side which is a plus. You can also quickly adjust and set gains with the dial above the mute button.
The sound quality is pretty good. It sounds good in several environments. But I feel like the mic has to be fairly close and directly in front of your mouth to have better quality audio right out of the box. The distortions can be really bad if you don’t change or adjust your gains. You can make adjustments on the Logitech GHub for more optimization, personalized settings and effects. If using it on desktop it will pick up keyboard sounds or bumps on the table but it does fairly well trying to block it out.
I would say it’s great for individual setups. It’s not great for podcasts, interview style setups, multi person setups. The mic is unidirectional so it’s best straight in front of the main person.
One of the things I wish were different is where the usbc cord is located. It would’ve been more streamlined if the cord was placed elsewhere. On its current stand its visible from any angle as it plugs directly under the mic but it isn’t a big issue and seeing that the mic can be removed from its desktop stand and placed onto different stand setups like boom arms, the cord then seems to be out of the way and less noticeable.

Logitech's Yeti GX is a classy looking device, with just a bit of RGB and a handsome satin finish. The build quality is solid and feels premium, with a stand just heavy enough to do the job. I do think the arm could stand to be a couple of inches longer as it doesn't quite reach optimal position for my face. An adapter is included to attach it to any standard boom.
The primary draw for me was the presence of a dynamic microphone capsule instead of a standard condenser, which does a fantastic job of reducing or eliminating background noise while targeting what's right in front of it. If you're recording or streaming in something other than complete silence, it's just great. This does mean that you need to be speaking into the microphone directly. The foam windscreen is reasonably thick and does it's job well.
It's clearly marketed to gamers/streamers, but the audio quality (24bit/96KHz sampling rate) is solid enough for most general studio work as well. I did some acoustic guitar recording with it and it honestly rivals some better studio mics on the market.
It features a lighted gain dial with a mute button that sits below, and comes with both a stand and an arm adapter. There's a little bit of a noise when you press the mute button before the mic is silenced, so if you do a lot of that with your recordings, you're going to have to get a little heavy with the editing. The gain dial will present itself with different colors depending on the status, letting you know when it's recording and if it's detecting distortion. It has the ability to lock in settings once you've got them tuned just right. It connects via USB-C and includes a USB-A to USB-C cable.
Smart Audio is almost as great in practice as it is in theory. It adds some additional processing to your recording and adjusts itself on the fly to keep things balanced and level, in a way I've never experienced before.
You can get surprisingly granular with the G-Hub app, which has plenty of options, including gain adjustment and master output, as well as high-pass and EQ settings. There's also a bunch of signal cleanup options for things like noise reduction, gating and compression. You can create custom presents for easy switching between projects. There's also around 20 voice effect presets, which you can also customize to your liking with pitch and ambiance settings. Logitech did an impressive job with their app.
If you're a studio pro, this probably isn't a mic for you, but for anyone dabbling in streaming, content creation, or home studio recording, this is great option to consider. I definitely recommend it.

Although some have bemoaned the purchase of Yeti by Logitech, and the direction they are taking with the lineup, I think if you fairly evaluate this mic on its own merit you will find it to be a very nice choice in its price range.
It is well-built, as all logitech products are. Solid metal where it needs to be, and high-quality plastic where it doesn't. It looks sleek and modern; certainly a big change from the retro-looking Blue line, but it's pleasing on its own and fits in well on a business-focused desk.
Software is top notch, IMO, and as a bonus if you use other logitech products, very well-integrates multiple products together. There are a lot of configuration options to modify the sound profile, and they work very well with extremely low latency. The RGB lighting is subtle, and implemented well--I do wish you could see it, though, while you are using the mic--because the capsule is a supercardioid oriented as if to look straight out of the top of the mic, you point this mic directly at you and not speak into the side as with a side-facing Blue cardioid capsule. The end result is you can't see the RGB at all. I suppose if you're a livestreamer, you audience may enjoy it, but I'm using it in Teams meetings and I'd kinda like to see that little pop of color myself.
Note the "supercardoid" isn't severely so--you will still pickup keyboard noise if you use a mechanical keyboard, so you will need to use the well-implemented noise-cancelling or noise cancelling in your capture/meeting software so as not to annoy others.
Otherwise, there's little to fault here: it is a massive improvement over any built in laptop or webcam mic, as you'd expect from a quality full sized external mic. I received many compliments on sound quality in business meetings using just the included desktop stand. A boom will improve the sound, but at what cost to your desk setup, visually? If you want ultimate sound quality, definitely go with a boom. If you can have the desktop stand near your keyboard while on meetings, it'll still sound great.
There's lots of adjustability in the software to tune the sound profiles, and although maybe not quite as crisp as the old Blue lineup, it's plenty good enough unless mic sound profiles really geek you out, and chasing the absolute best sound quality is a hobby. In which case, you're not looking in this price bracket, anyway, IMO.
I'd recommend it to anyone who doesn't currently use an external mic and feels it matches their style better than a retro Blue, wants a well-built and highly configurable mic for gaming/streaming, wants a mic that works "just fine" on a desktop stand vs. needing a boom, or wants a mic that (with RGB off) doesn't draw any attention in a business meeting. You'll get the upgrade you're looking for.
The Logitech Yeti GX offers impressive sound quality, a solid build, and customizable features. Its modern design and versatile configuration options make it a great choice for both business and personal use. While it may not be the absolute best microphone on the market, it provides excellent value for its price.

Logitech G Yeti GX – Great main stream microphone

The Logitech G Yeti GX makes for a great gaming or mainstream microphone especially if you’re in the Logitech ecosystem. The microphone comes well packaged in a slim box with an included stand and boom arm mounting adapter. The stand does not offer any sort of shock absorbing features so if that is a requirement look into getting a boom arm with a shock absorber. The Yeti GX connects via USB-C from the bottom of the microphone to USB-A on the other end of the cable. There are a plethora of audio settings to fine tube the microphone as well as adding voice effects to your audio in the Logitech G HUB software. There is a scrolling gain wheel as well as a mute button on the side, the scroll wheel does light up red when muted but the main RGB light on the bottom does not follow suit. The Yeti GX has great noise suppression features that make it so that you don’t really hear loud gaming keyboards when using the microphone as well as other background noises. The Smart Audio Lock is a great feature in the software that prevents the microphone from clipping and distorting when there are sudden shifts in the input volume. Using the Logitech G HUB software you’re able to sync the Yeti GX to your mouse, keyboard, headphones and other peripherals so they are in sync color wise. Overall I am satisfied with the Logitech G Yeti GX as it makes for a great mainstream microphone as well as one for gaming.

The build quality is impressive, with a sleek, durable design that looks great on any desk or recording setup. The built-in gain control, mute button, and headphone monitoring offer excellent convenience and control during sessions.

Nice microphone, but lights didn't work for me

The Logitech G Yeti GX Dynamic Microphone with LIGHTSYNC is a Plug and Play USB mic. The mic can be used with either a boom arm or with the included desktop stand.
What’s in the Box:
• USB Mic
• Desktop Stand
• Boom Arm adapter
• USB A to USB C cable
The Specs:
• supercardioid polar pattern
• 24 bit / 96 KHz
• 50 Hz – 18 KHz frequency response
• 95 dB dynamic range
• 78 dB signal to noise ratio
The mic is Plug and Play and was recognized by my Windows 11 laptop as soon as I plugged in the cable. The sound quality was good. I tested with an online game, and I was understood, and the mic produced clear audio. I also tested by recording my acoustic guitar. It worked well, but the mic does pick up a small amount of background noise.
Logitech G Hub (download on the Logitech web site) lets you customize the Lightsync lights, but I never could get the software to work correctly. On my two Windows 11 systems the Logitech G Hub software installed but would not recognize the microphone. Yes, on both systems, even though I was able to use the microphone on both computers. The software installation just failed altogether on my Windows 10 system. So, the cool Lightsync part simply didn’t work for me.
In summary, the microphone works just fine. However, the software used to customize it and take advantage of the cool light show did not. So, if you need a good USB gaming mic and you don’t really care if the lights work or not, this one may be for you.

For a usb mic the quality is high. The g-hub software is very user friendly. The only downside is the size. When using on a boom mic it would be nice to screw directly into the mic and not have that little metal bracket that attaches to the mic stand.
We truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts. It’s fantastic to hear the product is delivering as expected. Your feedback helps us grow and refine what we do. Thanks for choosing Logitech!

Overall a pretty good microphone. Sound quality is excellent, gain control is easy to use. But for its price, its outperformed by various other microphones. And the lack of a headphone monitoring jack at this price is not good. I ended up choosing the Elgato Wave 3, because at the same price, it has various features the yeti doesnt.
Thank you for your feedback on the Yeti GX. We appreciate your honest assessment and will consider your suggestions for future product development. We're always striving to improve our products to meet the evolving needs of our customers.

Logitech x Yeti mic

Got for my brother and he loves it. Happy with my purchase, as it looks nice on his desk, and is a simple usb microphone for a person that isn’t like me and wants simplicity in using mics for gaming and work related activities. Only gripe with it is that it needs a strange adapter to mount it to say a mic arm that you have but it does come with the mic, so that is good. Overall solid purchase as it should be with Logitech stuff usually.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad the Yeti GX microphone made a solid purchase and is well loved.

Great Mic! I wish it had the aux plug-in on the device, very straightforward use out of the box. Make sure you put on the blue mode in the software. I use it with my iPad and Mac. Easy to travel with, great for any set-up.
Thank you for your detailed review. We’re delighted the microphone offers ease of use, portability, and versatility across your devices. Your feedback regarding the aux plug-in is appreciated and will help guide future improvements.

Great, but a bit pricey

I’ll get straight to the point. The mic itself is obviously expensive, but it has great quality and it feels super premium. However it is a bit short, so I’d recommend a microphone stand or something to hold it up close to your mouth or else you’re gonna end up having to hold it up with one hand or lean in to speak which isn’t very comfortable. With that being said everything else about this is great. Had no problem setting it up or any issues with the way it sounds on the other end. I’d say if you have the money for it and you get a microphone stand, get it.
Sounds like you're really enjoying your Logitech Yeti GX! It's great to hear you're impressed with the microphone quality and finding all the customization options in the Logitech app super useful. Glad it's been a fantastic product for you!

Crisp sound that doesn't seem to pick up any background noise even in an apartment setting without soundproofing. Plug it in, go to your audio settings to select it for your incoming sound and you're set to go.
