At first the design scared me a little as fabric can get stained pretty easily but the G433 has you covered with that. Finally, if that wasn’t enough for you, there’s a nice cloth carrying bag with the Logitech G logo, again color-matched to your choice of headset. channel USB sound card lets the G433 simulate surround sound with audio processing and mixing between the headset's stereo drivers. Although the G Pro have much better noise isolation, the G433 sound much better than the G Pro, especially since you can use the Logitech Gaming Software to EQ their sound your way. The G433 handles our bass test track, The Knife's "Silent Shout," without a hint of distortion even at maximum volumes.

Finally, while the unit we tested was black, we also appreciate the availability of multiple colors, including blue, red, and blue/black camo. Since the Logitech G433 connects using a headphone jack it’s compatible with the vast majority of computers, smartphones, and games consoles including the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X, and Nintendo Switch in handheld mode. They will still make your ears fairly warm during long listening sessions and would not be suitable for more intense workouts, especially if you switch to the second set of pads included in the box.

G433 ear cups also feature an acoustic port positioned behind the driver for even more dynamic, spatial sound. Asus has announced an upgrade to its ROG Zephyrus G14 gaming laptop at CES 2022, as well as unveiling the ​​larger G15 machine and the Zephyrus Duo 16, the latest addition to Asus' lineup of dual-screen laptops. They also come with more accessories than the Corsair, like extra ear cup pads and detachable cables. The PC cable includes a special 5-pin connector on the headphone end to prevent crosstalk between the mic and audio ports. The microphone can bend slightly but the most important thing is that it picks up my voice loud and clear.

They don't look as good as the G Pro but they have a sleek-looking headband with a comfortable layer of padding. You’ll still feel the pads gently pushing into the sides of your face, but I find it reassuring rather than painful, and I don’t get any hotspots on my head or face after a long session. HyperX Cloud Alpha: Known for its exceptional audio quality and comfort, the HyperX Cloud Alpha is a strong contender in the gaming headset market.When it comes to music, I found the sound profile similarly bass-heavy out of the box, which works with a lot of modern music, but won’t give you the intricacy of a dedicated pair of musical headphones that an audiophile might appreciate. One is a 2m cable intended for use with PCs (it includes a mute/unmute switch for the microphone) and the other is a 1. Although their closed-back, casual design is better suited for commuting than other gaming headsets, if you use the default pads, they won't isolate enough for loud environments. I stuck mostly with the preset configuration and made some minor tweaks, but it’s easy to make them sound worse if you get in too deep.
