Is it world beater? No absolutely not. At around $40, the Logitech G430 DTS Gaming Headset is a decent gaming tool but not something we would advise getting. There are better brands and models out there that cost less than this but match it in terms of so...
Abstract: I've reviewed $30 to $300 headsets in the past, from Razer and Astro to V-Moda and Turtle Beach. Never before have I tried a Logitech gaming headset, as I've always associated them more with keyboard and mice than audio. But I found Logitech has quite the...

The Logitech G430 has a stellar mic and is comfortable enough to wear for hours on end, but missing software features hold it back. "You get what you pay for" is especially salient when it comes to gaming tech, but sometimes a product offers mo...

Abstract: Although we typically focus on the graphics in blockbusters such as Crysis 3 and Battlefield 4, audio is a big part of the experience as well. This is particularly true for games such as Alien: Isolation where graphics may set the scene, but it's the unse...

If you want the best positioning audio around i have to say that neither the G430 nor any 7.1 virtual surround sound headset can offer that and as a matter of fact in the case of some headsets i really suggest turning that option off when playing games. L...
Abstract: As someone who enjoys gaming on a PC, it is always a struggle to find the right combination of a quality headset with a decent microphone. Gamers will know and understand that your gameplay relies on what you can hear around you and how well you can commu...

and FV Logitech did a great job with the G430's. They stuck with what worked on their G35 and G930 headsets as far as shape and audio performance while making the headset something that more people could afford. Going with the bright blue trim and fab...
Abstract: Logitech refreshed their whole gamer-intended series. From mice and keyboards to headsets which are a necessity of every gamer PC. This time, we've had the chance to try out Logitech G430, headset whose main feature is the fact that it's capable of reprod...
