We've tested 16 pairs of Logitech headphones. They make a fairly wide range of gaming headsets, though even their more premium models are budget-friendly. They're known for making comfortable headsets that offer good microphone performance, customization options, and well-balanced sound profiles. Unfortunately, most Logitech headsets are bulky with very gamer-centric designs that may not be the best choice for day-to-day use.

Best Wireless Logitech Headset
Type Over-earEnclosure Closed-BackWireless YesNoise Cancelling NoMic YesTransducer DynamicThe best Logitech wireless headset we've tested is the Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset. These over-ear gaming headphones are well-built and come with a choice of either leatherette or cloth-covered earcup padding, so you can choose what's most comfortable for you. They have a detachable boom mic that makes your voice sound clear and full-bodied, and it does a decent job of separating your voice from background noise. Their well-balanced default sound profile delivers some extra boom, which can help bring out sound effects in action-packed games. If you prefer a different sound, you can customize it with a graphic EQ and presets in the headphones' companion app. Their continuous battery life of nearly 24 hours is more than enough to last through long gaming sessions, too.
Unfortunately, they aren't the most versatile gaming headphones since they aren't compatible with Xbox One consoles. They also have a poor noise isolation performance and block out virtually no noise in the bass range, so they aren't ideal for gaming in a noisy place. Some users have also reported that their unit's hinges have broken over time, which is a bit disappointing. That said, they're a solid choice if you're looking for wireless over-ear headphones, especially for gaming.

Best Wired Logitech Headset
Type Over-earEnclosure Closed-BackWireless NoNoise Cancelling NoMic YesTransducer DynamicThe Logitech G Pro X Gaming Headset is the best Logitech gaming headset with a wired connection that we've tested. These very comfortable headphones use a 1/8" TRRS connection, offering full audio and mic compatibility. You can also connect them to PCs and PlayStation consoles using a wired USB connection. Out of the box, their warm sound profile adds boom to your mixes, which can help emphasize sound effects in gameplay. That said, their mid-range is fairly flat and well-balanced, so dialogue and instruments are clear and present. Their companion software offers a graphic EQ and presets so that you can adjust their sound to suit your tastes. They also have a detachable boom mic that offers a good recording quality.
That said, they have sub-par frequency response consistency, and their bass and treble delivery can vary depending on fit, seal, and positioning. They struggle to block out background noise, and some users have reported that the hinges of their units break over time. However, if you prefer a wired design, these gaming headphones are customizable performance that should please most users.

Most Versatile Logitech Headset
Type Over-earEnclosure Closed-BackWireless NoNoise Cancelling NoMic YesTransducer DynamicThe best Logitech headphones for versatility that we've tested is the Logitech G433 Gaming Headset. These wired gaming headphones have a much more sleek look than the Logitech G432 Gaming Headset and come with a bunch of additional components that make them a great option if you also want to use them as your day-to-day headphones as well. You can remove their superb boom microphone entirely, and you can swap their regular cable out for one with an in-line microphone, so you can use them while on the go and still take phone calls. Their ear cups are comfortable, and they come with two different types of padding, depending on what you prefer. Their out-of-the-box sound profile is very well-balanced, and they can be EQ'd within the Logitech G HUB software.
Unfortunately, like most over-ear gaming headphones, they don't block out very much background noise, and they leak a fair amount of audio. This means that they won't help give you any peace during your daily commute, and you likely can't blast your music at the office without your coworkers hearing. If you want a good wired gaming headset that can double as your daily headphones, these are a good, versatile option with great value overall.

Best Budget Logitech Headset
Type Over-earEnclosure Closed-BackWireless NoNoise Cancelling NoMic YesTransducer DynamicThe Logitech G432 Gaming Headset is the best Logitech headset in the budget category that we've tested. Unlike many other gaming headphones at this price point, they offer a customizable audio experience as they're compatible with Logitech's G HUB software. Their punchy default sound profile can help emphasize sound effects in gameplay, but you can also tweak it to your preferences using their software's graphic EQ and presets. They also have a comfortable fit that should keep you from feeling fatigued over time. Their boom mic offers excellent overall performance, ensuring your voice sounds clear and natural, even in noisy environments.
Unfortunately, they have very limited controls as you can only adjust their volume and mute their mic. They don't block out much ambient noise and are prone to inconsistencies in bass and treble delivery. You may need to adjust their fit, seal, and positioning to get a more consistent sound. That said, if you're looking for more affordable gaming headphones, they're a solid choice.
