Variants

  • G432 (Black)
  • Kaira X for Xbox (Black)

  • Kaira X for Xbox (Electric Volt)
  • Kaira X for Xbox (Pulse Red)
  • Kaira X for Xbox (Shock Blue)
  • Kaira X for Xbox (White)

Our Verdict

Logitech G432

Razer Kaira X

The Logitech G432 is a slightly better-wired gaming headset than the Razer Kaira X. While both headphones are comfortable, the Logitech have a more neutral default sound profile, which some users may prefer, a virtual soundstage feature, and their boom mic has a better noise handling performance. They also have a companion app that offers a graphic EQ and presets so that you can tweak their sound on PCs. However, the Razer are better built and their mic has a better recording quality.
