There is also the option of using it with the 3.5mm cable, which won't drain the battery at all. The G935 is rated for up to 12 hours while using it wirelessly and I didn't need to charge it until my second day of gaming. The last thing you need during a match of Overwatch is to lose all audio. Finally, battery life for a wireless headset is always a concern. In all situations the Logitech sounded fantastic. With Xbox and Switch I used the included 3.5mm cable.

Wirelessly it has full functionality on a PC, but my PS4 automatically recognized it with the dongle plugged into one of its USB ports. The G935 is useable on anything you need. Muting the mic while not speaking is obviously an option, but it also means taking my hands off the controller to reach up to my left ear and hit the mute button. This was more of an issue while on the Xbox since it’s easy to map a push-to-talk key while at the computer. It also tends to pick up some room noise, so if it was constantly on any ambient sounds from my room (especially keyboard clicks) were heard a bit too much. In both the situations I came through nice and clear to my team, although they all found it to have more high end than they’d like to hear, at least from me. “I tried the mic in two different setups, one using the wireless dongle with my computer and the second on my Xbox One X. They’re also uncomfortable when sitting forward. That could lead to a loss of bass or, if you sit them further forward on your head, a bit more high tizzyness. The ear cups are large and might not seal properly around your ears.
Where you might run into some trouble is if you have a smaller head. Even with that minor drawback, the G935’s audio easily rivals wireless headsets that cost $200 or more.
The only frequency drawback is a bit of sibilance in the highs, although I didn’t find that it was piercing or fatiguing over long play sessions. In the low end where many headsets suffer from dreaded bass bloat, the G935 stays clean and sounds are easy to delineate. Nothing overpowers another sound and there’s excellent clarity across the whole range. Logitech informed me that its audio team went into the redesign process with the intention of creating a balanced frequency response and I can affirm that after using them they have accomplished their goal effectively. Logitech G935 – GamingBells and whistles are all fine and dandy, but when it comes to a headset for me it’s all about the sound. Profiles can be set up on a game-specific basis as well.
#LOGITECH GAMER HEADSET SOFTWARE#
The software is incredibly easy to use and very intuitive. Here is where you can turn on DTS and adjust the volume for multiple surround zones on a scale from 0-11 (thanks Nigel Tufnel). There are 7 different EQ presets and a 10-band graphic equalizer to customize the frequency response to your liking. Within the software you can program lighting effects for each zone independently, assign dozens of different options to the buttons including app specific commands (taking a screenshot in Overwolf or muting yourself in Discord), and adjusting audio settings. This Logitech G Hub software is a ground-up rebuild of the long-standing Logitech Gaming Software that links all your Logitech peripherals. The lighting and programmable buttons can all be customized with the new Logitech G HUB software. On the left ear cup is a wheel to control volume, a mute button, three assignable buttons and a power switch. There are two LED lighting zones on the G935 – a strip down the back side of each ear cup and the Logitech Gaming ‘G’ logo on each ear cup cover. Logitech had this on previous generations and I’m so glad they kept it as it solves a simple but persistent problem with wireless headsets. My favorite feature is a storage space in the left ear cup for the USB dongle. It’s barely viewable in my periphery, but I prefer that to a blindingly bright light in my view. There’s also a mute button on the headset and a red LED will illuminate when the mic is muted. The boom mic hides neatly in the left ear cup and is muted when it's tucked away. The leatherette earcups also rotate flat when you take them off, which is a handy feature. Thanks to the comfortable ear and headband cushioning I had no difficulty wearing them for hours, but I could definitely feel a relief to my head and neck when I took them off. “The G935 weighs just 5g more than the G933 at 379g, and I’d consider both to be on the heavier side for a gaming headset.
