So: I've owned a pair of G933s for the longest time. Mainly on the point that they fit my ears nicely, the audio was kickass, and they were wireless. After I got them they've served me... 3 or 4 years now. As of today; they're not broken beyond use but in a state where they will be soon.
I wanna buy a new headset next week, but the current question is whether it'll be a G935 or G733. Now the reason I ask this is mainly two things: What I like about the G933 was the customizability of the EQ, and the fact that they fit my pretty big ears comfortably. The things I didn't like were the issues with the software, and the size of the receiver. I've also heard mixed things about the 935s. Notably that the mic isn't as good as the 933s and that they're quieter.
Is there any truth to these claims? Is the audio quality a downgrade? And, how do the 733s hold up against it; are they as comfy to wear with sound quality to match, or would I be better off with the 935s?
As a disclaimer: I did look at the Pro X's, but, they look really uncomfortable to wear in comparison to 933's which go around my ears nicely cushioned. However if I'm wrong on that, feel free to recommend those too; I intend on buying these to last me atleast another 3 / 4 years.
Hey everyone, I'm having trouble deciding between these two headphones. From what I've gathered so far, the G733 have in favour that: 1- Better design in my opinion; 2- Are lighter; 3- Have USB-C (Which means I don't have to have a dedicated charger for them). However, from what I've read, I have the impression that the G935 have better sound quality.
I'm open to other alternatives or brands, but I don't want to spend much more than what these costs, and they would also need to be available in my country Argentina lol (I don't expect anyone to check that, but some suggestions may not be available here).

I saw a lot of reviews on both of these headsets and some people complain about the microphone on the G733 or that the buttons on the G935 usually start to stop working after a while using it. Is this true? Which one should I get? I basically only use for gaming or music. Thanks!
I'm currently using the G935 headset, and I have nothing to complain about with it. However, i've been looking at the G733 for a while as the buttons seem more useful and the USB-C interests me greatly. How do they compare in other aspects? Sound quality? Battery life? Range?
So after years (over 6) of gaming with my truly beloved headphones , My G35 is dead now.
I did wanted to repair them but i think after these years it was a good reason to upgrade.
I came to conclusion that these 3 are my "most wanted" (i am open to suggestions ofc)
Can you guys please tell me which one of these have the best Audio quality, Mic is a bonus i dont really care about it all i need is a good audio 7.1 sound, Wireless and strong.
please help me to achieve and fill the hole in my heart that my g35 left inside me.
thanks!
p.s : as i said dont hesitate to offer me better options !
mate just look for some other company to buy from.Logitech`s quality is not what is used to be.and couple with that the dreaded Ghub and their shitty support.right now they are refusing to rma my 0.5 year old g935 also there is another user here having problem trying to rma their g933 .
if you can deal with wires get some proper headphones like a Sennheiser or something if it has to be wireless look into hyperx stuff .
also be aware when you buy a "gaming" headset you really cant expect much in terms of audio quality so don't pay much more than 100-150 imo; if you want quality I don't think there are many wireless options out there (there are some but they or Bluetooth so latency will be high).
We appreciate your continued support. What I can guarantee is that all mentioned device are wonderful, should definitely suffice your needs and definitely last. What I suggest though, once you purchase any amongst the three, maximize its usage. If you feel like it won't suffice, just return it for a swap. Thanks and stay safe!
Reddit was helpful in making this call, so here are my thoughts.
Background: I had G533 for 4 years. Before that I had the G930 for 4-6 years. I loved them both.
I was deciding upgrading between these new G935s vs. Pro X wireless. There's a LOT of praise for Pro X but I am very happy with G935 and don't regret it. I got the G733s initially but it besides the light fit, it felt like a major downgrade, whereas this felt like an upgrade. So I replaced G733 with G935 as it was the same price.
But first, I'll speak on the shortcomings...
G935 Downgrades (from G533/733):
- G buttons are indistinguishable from mute button. Takes lots of getting used to. BUT i never use it b/c it has awesome lift-up auto-mute feature. Still, I'll frequently push mute instead of a G button on accident. At least there's a red light on the mic when it mutes, which a lot don't have.
- G buttons are hard to press. Too military grade.
- On/off toggle is harder than G533 to flip up/down. But at least it's a toggle and not a button. I also preferred it on the lower side of the earpiece, but that's just a personal thing.
- Almost feel like too many G buttons? Feeling for which is gonna do what is like learning an instrument because they all feel the same, in a place I never naturally touch.
- Have to turn on/off again to reactivate after idle. Old ones I could just push the vol up.
- It's USB-B, not USB-C. The insert is a bit tough to get in/out, but not bad.
- The earpieces are insulated without mesh & get pretty warm. 733 was great with this. If not in a cool enough room, your ears will start sweating.
- Not as light as G733 but was expected (but well-balanced & not neck breaking)
- Wireless range is "fine". Not quite as good as 533s but close. I think 733s were slightly better. I can still go to the kitchen with them in my house. But not really the garage to do laundry.
- When you get out of wireless range, sometimes I get an ANNOYING LOUD BEEPING when it goes off/on - why? Just cut the sound out.
- G Hub's surround sound is ass compared to G533's Gaming Software, but I know this is a bug, and the same problem happened with G733, same reports with G Pro X. I mainly use Win7 so I can't do the workaround, but it's apparently possible to fix.
G935 What I love (and why I went with them):
- FLIP MIC UP TO MUTE. G Pro X & G933s have mic detachable.... really? This was soooo nice from older models and I'm happy they kept it here.
- On/off TOGGLE. Not button.
- Lights are in back. Not front. (i turn off anyway tho)
- Earpiece cuffs rotate. Great for laying in bed.
- Volume is very easy to move +/- but also grooved so it's not too slick
- Sturdy design
- Battery life is amazing
- Earcuffs easy to detatch for cleaning/replacing (and compatible with old earcuffs)
Overall I actually don't regret not coughing up $229 for the G Pro X. I was torn but the sound is very good on these. I miss the old Logitech Gaming Software but G Hub is fine.
The negatives I think are very minor. I had much more negatives with the G733. Also G Pro X had almost none of these positives I was looking for.
Overall, I just wanted to make a post to share that the G935s are still worth your time.

im using g935 right now before that i was using headset gold ps4 Im still using g935 on ps4 without any problem it work perfectly and it fit perfectly on my big ears. At fisrt when i used the headset it was hard getting use to noise canceling and i couldnt hear myself at first place! But the sound quality and the mic is perfect. I use it without rgb and it lasts about 13 hours of playing. The downside is that some parts of it made of plastic and it make noises when it moves or you are adjusting it on your head :( The RGB is pretty nice and if you are using it on pc it could ne better! Cause you can use the surround sound option and its great and about the rgb you have plenty of options. I havent used g733 im sorry for that! Hope it helps :)
I recently purchased a pair of G733 and G935 to replace my aging G933. I listen to a ton of music and play a lot of games and noticed the distinct lack of bass on both when im in game. I was just wondering, is there a way to move my profile from my G933 and load it with the G935 to see if I can get the sound back to where I like it? I love my G933 and wanted another pair but can only find them used, so I need to figure this out.

There are numerous reviews from owners of 933 that say that you shouldn't upgrade since it's not even that big of an upgrade. I ordered 935 bcs i never had logitech headset before (before i had jbl quantum 100) so this is quite an upgrade for me but for you it definitely isn't that big of an upgrade. My 935 arrives tomorrow I'll let you know if you need anything
So after years (over 6) of gaming with my truly beloved headphones , My G35 is dead now.

WH-1000XM3, sounds great, has ANC, and doesn't look stupid like the ones you listed. downside is latency in comparison.
I tried searching for some reviews but cant make up my mind. I have a G935 rn and its shit, dont want to go through the same "power switch" problem" again. Which one you guys recommend? (And no, i dont want studio headsets)
