Gaming Performance

When you are a competitive gamer, you need to hear every gunshot, every footstep, and every ricochet, as if you were in the middle of the action. The Logitech G432 Gaming Headset delivers on those needs.

With rich, programmable sound for games like Destiny 2, World of Warcraft, and GTA V, this headset will help you take your gaming experience to new heights.

And with an ear cup design that’s both breathable and comfortable, the headset won’t make a sweaty mess out of your head.

However, if you are coming from a high-end gaming headset, the Logitech G432 won’t impress. For example, the volume and bass could be more impressive.

Music Performance

For $50, the Logitech G432 gaming headset is easily beaten by other headphones on the market:

And despite handling high and low frequencies well, music just doesn’t pop with this headset.

For instance, vocal-heavy tracks, while still sounding clear and crisp, just don’t sound as good as headphones that are equally as expensive.

Design

Aesthetically, the G432 look quite similar to Logitech’s predecessors. They are all black, with a tasteful tint of color designed to stand out within the Logitech G gaming line.

Moreover, one of the biggest differences is that they’ve taken away the ring of blue and given it only an accent on each speaker cup.

Logitech has also reintroduced the silver accents in a vertical strip around each earpiece. The perforated headband even features this metallic shine throughout its edges to give it that tech vibe.

Comfort

The large earcups and firm headband keep the headset snuggly in place. Whereas some headsets can feel like a head clamp, the Logitech G432 does not. And even after hours of gaming, the areas around your ears won’t be wet with sweat.

Controls

The built-in control scheme of the Logitech G432 headset is laid out very simply and isn’t at all complicated. You only have a single wheel on each earcup for controlling your audio levels and muting your microphone when folding it up.

On the upside, you never have to worry about searching for volume controls because they’re always in front of you. Plus, if your headset gets bumped or knocked by accident, there’s no risk of altering anything as the controls are smartly placed.
