A single string guitar section wasn’t overpowered by other instruments as they were layered on. On Billy Talent’s “I Beg to Differ (This Will Get Better)” the vocals were smooth, and the drums had a nice bounce to them. They got louder than I could ever need and produced a nice, clean sound. The 40mm drivers in the G733 Lightspeed are are also great for music.

Even so, Fall Guys, which is far less reliant on sound cues, still sounded nice to my ears, including the constant cries and coos of the miniature participants getting wacked around.

Not all games get the same benefits with surround sound. For instance, when I played Call of Duty: Warzone, I could hear which way bullets were ringing out from, and, in the gulag, the alarm going off next to my head when it was time to fight for my life. The Logitech G733 Lightspeed proved to be a fine gaming headset, especially when taking advantage of its DTS Headphones X 2.0 surround sound support. Audio Performance of Logitech G733 Lightspeed I used the G733 Lightspeed for 6 hours straight with the default lighting at 100% brightness, and it was left with 66% battery, per the G Hub software, which suggested it would last for approximately 15 hours afterward. Logitech is claiming 20 hours of battery life with the default lighting, and 29 hours without. If I were using a gaming laptop or even a docking station, it would jut out and possibly block other ports. The 2.4 GHz USB Type-A receiver is a bulky one that took up plenty of space on the back of my desktop, but at least that’s a place I could put it out of sight. Logitech claims 20m (about 65 feet) of wireless range, and while I don’t have that much space in any direction from my gaming PC (though it did make it through a door a few steps outside of my apartment), I believe it’s possible in the right circumstances, but you’ll need the right layout. However, the cans' connection never completely dropped. My apartment isn’t very large – just a few hundred square feet – but it’s the type of post-war New York City building cursed with who-knows-what in the walls, and my Wi-Fi signal also has intermittent issues there. The only place where the G733 Lightspeed struggled was my bedroom. The connection largely rivaled my pair of AirPods Pro, which have the best Bluetooth connection I’ve used. My best test of the connection was to walk around my apartment and see if the connection dropped. Logitech calls its proprietary wireless tech “ Lightspeed,” and the company claims that it offers less latency and is as reliable as wired connections. The options include a mustache, thumbs up/down, lips, a star and a heart. If you want to liven your stream up a bit, Logitech is selling some fun, colorful pop filters in packs of four for $9.99. For anything more advanced, including turning Blue Voice or DTS HeadphoneX 2.0 surround sound, you need to change settings in the software. The left ear cup is also where the USB Type-C port for charging is, so you never even need to bother checking the right side of the headset. All of the Logitech G733 Lightspeed’s hardware controls are on the left can, including the mute button, (which can be configured for other macros or commands), volume wheel and power button.
