Surround sound sucks when you do anything other than gaming or high quality music sessions. Don't use it for DJ productions
Compositions or watching movies
The plastic is cheap and begins breaking after a few weeks of usage
Good Gaming performance and positional sound for 2x40mm drivers, Light truction, Auto mute when rotating the mic up and out of the way, USB (for 7.1 sound) and 3.5mm connectivity gives great flexibility, Well Priced
Good Gaming performance and positional sound for 2x40mm drivers, Light truction, Auto mute when rotating the mic up and out of the way, USB (for 7.1 sound) and 3.5mm connectivity gives great flexibility, Well Priced, Initially a tight fit
After more than 2 months of use, I would describe the Logitech G430 as comfortable. I found the headset to be fine for long periods of time and although it's a snug fit, you almost forget that you are wearing it when the microphone is up.In terms of sound...
Our new test set up illustrates well what we also hear as differences between the headsets. Recommending the best is therefore quite easy. The best sound quality for music is found in the Kingston Hyper X Cloud, with which you will also receive many han...

I quite like the design of the headset, it did appeal to me from the outset and its simplicity and quality of materials used in the construction of the headset is what I expected from Logitech. However, the G430 does not come without its faults. For lon...
Abstract: Headsets with surround sound are becoming more and more common. Today we are taking a closer look at the Logitech G430 and Plantronics Gamecom 780 headsets with Dolby Headphone technology for surround sound. Both feature over-ear earpieces and folding m...
Abstract: Last week, I looked at a series of headsets. In the comments, a few of you asked for me to review the Logitech G930. However, that's an older headset, and we try to keep up with the times. So, instead, I'm reviewing the G430. How does it stack up compared...

Terrific surround sound reproduction, Retractable and bendable mic, Well cushioned earphones and headband, Comfortable to wear, Earphones and mic levels can be finetuned to your liking
Earpiece cushioning a bit stiff, All plastic build
Suffice to say, all of this certainly enhanced our gameplay experience several fold. In the final analysis, we were actually very impressed with the G430 headphones especially with regards to the sound they delivered, in games in particular. They have a R...
No GKey customisation, Does not feel comfortable for long durations
When a gamer is in need for surround sound headphones that are affordable, the Logitech G430 should be on their shortlist as it provides gamers with the performance that they require and gamers will definitely find this headset to be worth every penny.(p...
This is one of the best gaming headphones I've used and most certainly the most comfortable. The paddings and ear-cups are just at the right depth and stiffness and I never had any problem with wearing it for hours. The voice quality for the microphone is...
Review: Logitech G430While there are a multitude of gaming peripheral companies out there, few can match the Logitech's vast catalogue. Having recently refreshed its G-series lineup of gaming peripherals, the company has presented PC.com with the G430, it...
7.1 Dolby Surround Sound, Braided Cable 3.18m long, Inline Switch Volume and mute control, Headband Metallic Piece, Washable earcups, Software, USB digital adapter, Lightweight, Folding Noisecancelling mice, 3 years warranty, Price Too cheap for the quali
None programmable keys, Not OS X/Linux Compatible, Requires the USB adapter to enable the 7.1 feature Without it, G430 ends up as a plain stereo headset
Logitech's intention of going for a more sporty feel with their headset made the G430 take a nose-dive but the sound quality is still there. Fortunately, the price is quite competitive if not one of THE most lowest priced virtual surround headset on the m...
