Conclusion You paid how much for those?Īs far as gaming headsets go, this is probably the best in terms of cost-to-performance. Despite the fact that they're made of plastic and silicone rubber, they're more durable than they look. If you're fine with all that, you should be all set with the G230-they're comfortable over long periods of time, they don't really build up much heat or sweat, and they could probably survive the worst freakout you can have. Most laptops, XBox, and even tablets accomodate headphones that use only one plug, so headsets that use two like the G230 are incompatible without an adapter. Where these cans fall short has more to do with the fact that console and laptop manufacturers don't always make traditional headsets easy to use with their hardware. It can be a bit tough to get the mic to bend the way you want it, but it'll work fine even if you don't quite get it to your mouth.Ĭonsole and laptop manufacturers don't always make traditional headsets easy to use with their hardware. While the mic isn't the greatest thing in the world, it will function just about as well as you can expect a unidirectional mic to work-you shouldn't notice any glaring flaws in most games. These will absolutely work well in most games or chat applications. Really-no glaring flaws or oddities will rear their ugly head and destroy your gaming experience. So you fire up your gaming rig and you've got the G230s on your head, and you want to know what might blindside you? The answer is nothing. Though more affordable headsets typically have some rough edges, the worst is the tracking, which is barely audible if that. It's entirely possible that you'll notice distortion in your friends' voices, but that's not the fault of your headphones-it's the fault of the client. You'll notice the lack of bass and sub-bass right away, which makes your music sound a little strange if you're not used to this kind of response. It does give you the flexibility to treat these headphones as a replacement for old "at the computer" cans, but they won't make you forget your old high-end headphones or anything. Logitech didn't tailor the audio quality to fit any one type of game, and treated it more like a traditional set of headphones.įrom the readouts of the performance in the lab, it looks like Logitech didn't tailor the audio quality to fit any one type of game, and treated it more like a traditional set of headphones. RPGs, adventure games, puzzle games, and even just using Skype or Hangouts will be more or less perfect with the G230.
While this may mean that it's not the best choice for high-volume shooters, it'll work well enough for most games that aren't saturated with constant gunfire. Audio Quality Decent, but a little weak on bassĭespite its relative inability to block out the world around you, the G230 actually does fairly well with both music and in-game sounds. You may find the cable to be a bit long, but you can bind it with the velcro wrap that comes with the cans.
But perhaps that's one of the best things about this unit in particular: There isn't any fuss, just a gaming headset you use and don't think about. When the most exciting feature of the unit is a remote that lets you change volume or cut the mic in-game, there's really not a whole lot to talk about. In reality, this is a very basic headset no matter how you slice it.

It epitomizes what a PC gaming headset should be at bare minimum out of the box: It has a movable boom microphone, light plastic construction, and a pair of 1/8th inch plugs at the end of a 9.84-foot cable for the microphone and headphone aspects of the G230. You won't notice anything that really stands out if you look at the unit for its features, however-it's fairly pedestrian. There isn't any fuss, just a gaming headset you use and don't think about.
