This review is from: Logitech G35 USB Connector Circumaural Surround Sound Headset
Pros:
Amazing sound. I have done comparisons with other headsets in the $100 price range (turtle beach, steelseries, razer), and it outclasses them in this regard. Very comfortable, and it does a decent job at noise isolation.
Cons:
Software/Hardware issues. After 9 months of use, the plastic started cracking around the rivets on the right ear cup. Apparently this is a common occurrence- which is even worse. There is a serious design flaw that puts the longevity of this headset into question. However, I fixed this problem with some super-glue and epoxy without a hitch. To add to annoyance, in some applications the headset does not function in stereo, and the surround sound must be enabled or virtually no sound is produced from the left cup. Reinstalling/updating driver software did not alleviate the problem, and the only solution seems to be complete removal of said software, upon which the stereo function is 100%. That's not to say it doesn't work at all, just certain applications such as Pandora. Did I mention it's heavy?
Overall Review:
Looking at how negative my review is it seems illogical to rate it at 4 stars, but I really do like this headset. There are some problems which must be addressed; in my case, these issues detract from satisfaction, but not from value. This headset is very sturdy, with one exception. The software is fully functional, with one exception. Did I mention it sounds amazing? It sounds amazing. Oh yeah, and it comes with all kinds of gimmicky stuff that you'll rarely, if ever use.
