Our Verdict

SteelSeries Arctis 1

Logitech G335

The Logitech G335 are slightly better for wired gaming than the SteelSeries Arctis 1. The Logitech are comfier, better-built, more stable on the head, and deliver audio more consistently. Meanwhile, the SteelSeries block out more ambient noise, leak less audio, and offer superior mic recording quality and noise handling capability.
