Our Verdict
Logitech G430
Logitech G635
Both the Logitech G430 and the Logitech G635 are decent gaming headphones, but the G635 is better-built than the cheap, plasticky G430, and their sound quality is better. The new G HUB app is also better than the previous Logitech Gaming Software and offers more controls. You can also map different actions to the buttons on the G635, which you don’t have on the G430. However, the G430 might offer better value if you don’t mind not having RGB lighting since they perform really well for budget headphones.
