It is the only headset in the range that carries both LIGHTSPEED 2.4GHz \u003cem\u003eand\u003c\/em\u003e Bluetooth, so the same headset handles a PC game through the USB dongle and a phone call over Bluetooth without unpairing anything. It weighs 165g, which is light enough that it stops registering after a few minutes. It has no boom microphone - two beamforming mics sit inside the left earcup instead, which removes the most fragile part of a gaming headset and the part that is always in the way when the headset is around your neck. And it needs no software: on PC the G435 has full functionality straight out of the box with no G HUB installation. Logitech built it with a minimum of 22% post-consumer recycled plastic, FSC-certified paper packaging, and Certified Carbon Neutral status. The trade for all of this is that there is no RGB, no boom mic and no surround processing - the G435 is deliberately a headset that does the fundamentals well and leaves the rest out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLIGHTSPEED + Bluetooth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo Wireless Systems, One Headset\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost gaming headsets pick one wireless technology. LIGHTSPEED is Logitech G's proprietary 2.4GHz protocol, built for gaming: it sends uncompressed audio over a dedicated USB dongle at latency low enough that footsteps and gunshots stay locked to what is on screen. Bluetooth is the universal standard - it pairs with anything, but the audio compression and packetisation add tens of milliseconds of delay, which is fine for music and calls and noticeable in competitive play. The G435 carries both. Plug the LIGHTSPEED dongle into a PC, Mac, PS4 or PS5 for gaming audio with no perceptible lag, and use Bluetooth for a phone, tablet or Nintendo Switch. Switching between the two is a button press on the earcup rather than a re-pairing procedure. In practice this is the feature that makes the G435 a genuinely single-headset solution - you are not taking one pair off to answer a call on another. Range is up to 10 metres on either connection. One detail worth checking before ordering: the LIGHTSPEED dongle is USB-A, so a laptop with only USB-C ports will need an adapter or hub.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e165g · Beamforming Mics · No Boom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat Removing the Boom Arm Achieves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 165g the G435 is roughly 110g lighter than the G733 and around half the weight of many full-size wireless gaming headsets. A large part of that saving comes from removing the boom microphone assembly and the plastic housing, hinge and cabling that go with it. In its place, two microphones sit inside the left earcup and work as a beamforming array - the two capsules receive the same sounds at fractionally different times depending on direction, and the processing uses that timing difference to favour audio arriving from the direction of the wearer's mouth while suppressing sound arriving from elsewhere. Voice comes through cleanly for Discord, party chat and calls; a boom mic positioned directly in front of the mouth still captures more low-end body in the voice, so a streamer recording content will want a dedicated microphone. For everyday team communication the beamforming array is entirely sufficient, and it removes the part of a headset most likely to break and the part that digs into your collarbone when the headset hangs around your neck. The earcups use soft memory foam and the headband is fabric-suspended, which combined with the low weight is what makes the G435 comfortable across a long session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e18hr · No Software · Sustainable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBattery, Setup and Build\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEighteen hours of playback covers a week of evening sessions before the headset needs the USB-C cable, and USB-C means the same lead as a phone or laptop rather than a proprietary connector. Where the G435 differs sharply from the rest of the Logitech G range is software: it requires none. On PC the headset has full functionality with no G HUB installation - plug in the dongle and it works, including volume and mute from the earcup buttons. There is no EQ, no Blue VO!CE processing and no RGB to configure, which is precisely why nothing needs installing. The G435 is Logitech G's sustainability flagship: minimum 22% post-consumer recycled plastic in the construction, paper packaging from FSC-certified forests, and Certified Carbon Neutral status covering design through delivery. One safety-related detail that is easy to miss on a spec sheet: the G435's maximum volume is capped at approximately 85dB. Logitech set this deliberately, since the headset is sized and positioned partly for younger players. For most listening this is more than loud enough, but anyone who habitually runs a headset at very high volume in a noisy room should be aware the ceiling is lower than on a typical gaming headset.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRight choice if you…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✔\u003c\/span\u003e Want one headset for gaming and for your phone - LIGHTSPEED and Bluetooth together, switched with a button\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e✔\u003c\/span\u003e Find full-size gaming headsets heavy - 165g is around half the weight of many competitors\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e✔\u003c\/span\u003e Do not want to install software - full PC functionality with no G HUB required\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e✔\u003c\/span\u003e Are buying for a younger player, or want a headset with a smaller fit and a safer volume ceiling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsider something else if…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✖\u003c\/span\u003e You play on Xbox - the G435 is not Xbox compatible in either wireless mode;

If you routinely run headsets at very high volume, or use them in a noisy environment, the ceiling is lower than a typical gaming headset and the G733 or a HyperX Cloud model would suit better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrand New - Retail Packaging\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufacturer warranty (Logitech)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivery\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4-5 Working Days · Fully Tracked\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlso Available at maibo\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/maibo.uk\/product\/logitech-g733-wireless-gaming-headset-lightspeed-black\/\"\u003eLogitech G733 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Headset - Black\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/maibo.uk\/product\/hyperx-cloud-ii-wireless-gaming-headset\/\"\u003eHyperX Cloud II Wireless Gaming Headset\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/maibo.uk\/product\/logitech-g502-lightspeed-wireless-gaming-mouse\/\"\u003eLogitech G502 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/maibo.uk\/product-category\/gaming\/\"\u003eBrowse all gaming headsets at maibo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse the full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/maibo.uk\/product-category\/gaming\/\"\u003egaming headsets and peripherals range at maibo\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Logitech","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":54618472874321,"sku":"981-001050","price":57.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1066\/3228\/2449\/files\/3174510779.webp?v=1787099077","url":"https:\/\/www.wiredsupplyco.com\/products\/logitech-g435-lightspeed-gaming-headset-black","provider":"WiredSupplyCo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
