Our Verdict
Logitech G733 LIGHTSPEED Wireless
Logitech G435 LIGHTSPEED Wireless
The Logitech G733 LIGHTSPEED Wireless are better gaming headphones than the Logitech G435 LIGHTSPEED Wireless. The G733 feel better built, have a boom mic that performs better overall, and can be used while charging. Their companion software also allows you to customize their sound to your liking using a graphic EQ and presets. However, the G435 fit smaller heads better and have a significantly lighter design. They support Bluetooth as well as come with a proprietary wireless dongle, although you can't use them both simultaneously.
