Great CALL CENTER headset...
I purchased these headphones for my wife who works for AWL in Austin. She works from home and she didnt want to be tethered to her computer anymore (wireless). AWL stated that IF she went wireless, the headset had to be Logitech. Could not be Platronics or VXi or Sennhesier or Jabra Pro or Microsoft or Koss or.....you get the point. So, Logitech branded wireless headset it was. (Apparently there is a call quality difference with the different brands but dont ask me or the wife, we dont know the technical reasons). I went to Best Buy. Went to Frys. Went to Wal-Mart. Went to a few other stores with the requirements: 1) The headset had to be Logitech branded 2) It had to be wireless 3) It had to last (Actual Talk Time) 9 Hours. (Not Stand by time) 4) No stupid proprietary charging ports or connections. Ironically, NONE of the local stores had anything that came close. The closest Logitech branded wireless headset was at Best Buy and that one had a talk time of 6 hours or less. Nope. Then I started to think about my old gaming days. And how I used to never *cough* *cough* *cough* talk trash to other Xbox online players (Mainly Halo). That old headset was not Logitech but it lasted 10-12 hours on the wireless connection. Surely Logitech would be at least a contender in that field if not a major player (Online Gaming Communication). Sure enough, along comes the Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum headset in my search. This is very pricey for its intended function (Wireless Call center work only, nothing else). Lets compare the original requirements of the job to this headset: 1) The headset had to be Logitech branded - Thats a CHECK (Yes). 2) It had to be wireless - Thats a CHECK (Yes). 3) It had to last (Actual Talk Time) 9 Hours. (Not Stand by time) - Thats a CHECK (Yes)....Actual runtime is 12 hours without the RGB lights on. 4) No stupid proprietary charging ports or connections. - Thats a CHECK (Yes). It has a standard microUSB charging port. So, bought it and handed it to the wife. She couldnt believe the price ($149.99) and the sheer size of this headset. She tried them on for a full day and fell in love with them. Now she is able to roam around the room or the vast majority of the entire apartment while talking to customers. She tells me that the headset is very comfortable. She said that the pull down boom microphone is very good and the dedicated mute button on the left side works fantastic. I tried this headset on for myself and I can confirm that it is worth every penny (for work). Gaming is a different animal all together. So, if you work in a call center (and work from home), give these a hard look. You may be hard pressed to find something better at the respective price point of these.

Great headset, but requires a small bit of adjustment to get the most from it
Okay, a few notes to start this off to address issues from the bad reviews: If you've ever had the Logitech Gaming Software installed on your computer, you are going to want to uninstall it and reinstall the newest version from their site. This will solve almost every non-hardware issue that has cropped up in the reviews, including issues with volume, the microphone, headset time-out, and so on. You'll also want to update the firmware if you have an older build of the headset; you can do that through the software as well. For the best quality/sound balance, you will have to fiddle with the EQ a little. Its defaults tend to prefer being very bass-heavy; for a better breadth of sound, you'll definitely want to adjust this, but once you do, the sound quality is quite good for a gaming headset. Naturally, this headset isn't going to give you true 7.1 surround sound; no headset can. It emulates it quite well, though - for PCs provided you have the Logitech software installed. Other devices will NOT give you the simulated 7.1 experience. Keep this in mind when you purchase the headset. That all said: this is a nice headset. I'm not sure why a few people are saying that the headset feels cheap, because it feels anything, but cheap. The cups are huge and cushiony, and even on my fat head with glasses on, it's extremely comfortable. The keys are, naturally, programmable through the software, and most of the settings are saved to the headset's onboard memory. The volume knob is a 'soft' dial; in other words, it will control the operating system's volume control rather than adjust anything hardware-wise on the headset. Testing this with a pretty wide variety of music (and I do mean wide. Celldweller, Chopin, and Secret Garden are all on this list) provides some surprisingly good results for what is predominantly designed for gaming; even piano notes sound crisp, rather than overly muddied as often ends up being the case with these headsets. It's nowhere near the quality of good studio headphones, but it's absolutely fantastic for making out specific sounds. Play Devil Daggers with these on and you'll easily be able to identify what's spawned, and where it spawned as an example. For games with thumpy bass, the drivers will be more than enough to satisfy you. Play Rez Infinite with these on; especially Area 5. You will thoroughly enjoy it. Battery life isn't awful if you keep the lights off. The only way I can see you having the lights on is if you're streaming anyway; and unless you're doing an endurance/charity stream for more than 8 hours, I have a feeling you're going to take a break and be able to charge these. They are usable while charging - except for the mic for some reason. The mic isn't bad. It's placed pretty far from your face, but in my testing, it's been clear; if somewhat hollow and tinny sounding. You'll be understood, but you won't sound sexy. If you really care about a streaming setup, though, you'll probably want a desktop mic anyway; for day-to-day gaming, the mic is more than sufficient. The fact it auto-mutes when you flip it back up is also extremely convenient. Can you get a better headset for the price? Probably, but it'll be very much tethered to the device it was designed for. The Artemis can connect to literally anything, although it will only provide the 'best' experience from PC. The combination of being very comfortable, having sound that absolutely matches its perpetual on-sale price point, and otherwise being extremely versatile makes this a fantastic buy for the price.

Versus the G930s
I've used, hated, and (mostly) loved the G930s for a long time, so I've compared the G933s to them in this review and in the attached pics. Aesthetically, they're great. The G933 has to be the sleekest headset I've ever had. The microphone is hard to even find; it looks like it was part of the cup. There's a sidepanel for holding the USB dongle affixed by two magnets, making it really easy to take off and providing a valuable function if you're traveling with these. Underneath is clear plastic for some soundboard eye candy. The pic of the earcups shows what is, for me, a crucial difference. The deathknell of the G930 was never its battery -- that's replaceable. It was the nagahide earcups (not replaceable) which degrade and tear off, ruining the sound seal and necessitating that nightmare tape operation I have on the right cup. The G933s have cloth earcups, precluding that problem as well as being more comfortable (and, FYI, they're *extremely* comfortable). The pic of the sides shows the G933 really "shine". Those strips can strobe colors so FAST! Very beautiful
and an unnecessary battery drain which about cuts operation time IN HALF. Unfortunately, here's my biggest gripe and my only con so far: they actually don't have more buttons than the G930s, as is apparent. In fact, they have one LESS button: the surround toggle switch. By default, the center of the three G# buttons is set to surround toggle, but I like using those as media keys with the center one as Play/Pause. After that, I have no way to conveniently toggle surround like I did before; the G930s had a dedicated slider. The reason this is so important is probably only apparent to people who share my unhealthy familiarity with the G930s. Occasionally, in some media players or games, you have "omitted" sound channels -- you'd hear everything but the dialogue in a movie, for example. Like all of the G930s' issues, this has an obscure solution that's just become second nature to me: toggle the surround switch. It's muscle memory at this point. I toggle it once when I start playing a movie with complex sound or a game. I won't be able to do this with the G933s unless I sacrifice a media key. I hope that I won't have to -- that these don't have the same surround problem, but I think that's unlikely. 2016-04-18 update: I had two more issues with this headset: mic crackling (fixed by toggling the "Automatic microphone noise removal" box in Logitech Gaming Software) and its refusal to heed its device manifest XML file like the G930s would, which I used to disable the automatic shut off. I'm thrilled to report that, as of Logitech Gaming Software 8.82.151 (which included a firmware update for the headset), the mic crackling disappeared regardless of the noise removal option's state and an option has been added in the LGS GUI itself to set or disable automatic shut off. Kudos to Logitech. I only wish LGS had bugged me to update; I simply put up with those problems with an outdated version for who knows how long before hearing that it was worth to update! I'm updating my review to 5 stars.Aalia Bhat
Fit Great, Sound Great, Logitech G software is garbage.
Some people have problems with random and frequent disconnect/reconnects from the wireless dongle. You here a beep-boop and then lose sound for a few seconds then beep-boop and it's back. I found that removing the charging cable from the PC while it wasn't in use (I charge it from a wall outlet now) and uninstalling the Logitech G software completely eliminated any disconnects. I used to get the disconnect every 10 to 15 mins and since removing the cable and the software I have not had one disconnect in over 20 hours of use. Sound Volume is more than loud enough and I doubt you will find yourself using 100% volume at all times. Mic quality is decent for the price point, doesn't pick up a ton of ambient sounds. Disable RGB to extend battery life. You don't need RGB on headphones. xD

Great All Around Headset
Great headset all around. Sound quality is excellent and robust enough that I can switch between playing video games, watching movies/TV, and listening to music without worrying about one not sounding great. The LED's on the headset look great but do decrease battery life a bit. Thankfully there is a handy button on the headset to cycle turning them on and off as well as the ability in the software to change them. The software is self is well designed and has few issues/crashes. The mic is of high quality for a headset which is a nice bonus and the ability to raise it to store and mute is a nice bonus. Another nice feature is the ability to switch between wired and wireless. I myself use purely wireless and have no issues with disconnection unless I move to a different floor on my house (which is amazing it makes it that far). The portability of the headset is quite amazing as like I said the mic folds into the head set and the USB receiver (wireless mode) actually has a spot inside the left ear. I like how the battery is accessible and replaceable (spot in the right ear) in the case that something happens. You can also buy new ear pads as well as a receiver from Logitech for around $10 which increases the longevity of the product by a ton. Only two cons I can think of are out of the box the headset grip strength is a little high for someone with glasses but this is easily broken in. Also I wish the mic could be moved a little closer to my face, the quality isn't really affected its more just I feel like people may not be able to hear me (never had an issue however). Overall I am very pleased with this headset both in performance and in construction and I like how Logitech gives you the option to purchase replacement parts instead of forcing you to buy a new headset if somethings happens.

A Monster of a Headset - Logitech does it again!
This headset is (nearly) everything I'd hoped it would be. I'm a longtime Logitech fan but I've tried out many other brands of headsets the last couple of years as well. I've had 2 pairs of G35s (Both broke at the ear joint in the same place) and one pair of G930s. Personally, I prefer the wired Logitech headset to the wireless ones, as the G35s I thought were generally built a tad more sturdy than the G930s. [Comfort] The G933 feels remarkably tight and solid for how light it is; doesn't feel too flimsy like a pair of G930s or G4/230s. It's hard to describe how it feels when they grip your ears, I've never had another headset like this one - there's almost a horizontal pressure coming from the muffs allowing them to evenly clamp to your head. It's a strange sensation but it works and I like it. There is an incredible amount of swivel in the ears if that's what you're into, like G930s plus maybe 10% wider range. Not a critical feature, but you know, some people gotta have that swivel - Logitech's got you covered. These are not leather(y) like G930s or G35s, at least, not in the same sense. I'm not actually sure what material this is. I also own a pair of Astro A40s and a pair of Sennheiser Game Ones, and even though those headsets are comfortable to wear, I'm not a huge fan of that fabric material they use - I've always thought a leathery feel to the muffs was a little nicer to wear for gaming and working but sometimes when it's hot the leather can make my ears a little sweaty too (I'm in AZ so it's hot often) - it's a trade-off. I don't know what Logitech did but they were able to perfectly blend the two - the muffs have the rigidity and sound sealing quality and feel of leather, but with the softness and give of fabric. It's truly the perfect middle ground and I have very much enjoyed them over the past 2 days that I've been heavily using them. [Sound] Sound is a big one for me - it keeps me moving from headset to headset trying to find that best all-in-one game/work/music/movie headset for every scenario. Truth be told, this it the best one yet. On top of the A40s, GameOnes, G35, and G930s, I've also owned a pair of Razer Kraken (1st gen) and Steelseries Siberia v2 headphones - so I feel it's safe to say that even though I'm a logitech fan, I've at least played the field and used a variety of products. That being said, This one far surpasses any of the headsets currently listed above. Sennheisers are world renowned for their audio quality and comfort, something I love about them - however, very few of their products offer 5.1 or 7.1 surround options which makes them not ideal for gaming. Don't get me wrong, they are the best sounding and most comfortable headset that I own, but recommending them as a gaming solution feels a bit weak for their lack of surround capabilities. I've tried a few different software solutions but have yet to find one that really makes this an acceptable solution for competitive gaming. I play a decent bit of ranked CS:GO and having directional audio clarity is critical. The Logitech G933 has by far, the best directional audio I've ever heard. It's tight, it's clean and focused, and it's highly customizable. The most surprising part for me was the addition of dts Headphone X software support in the Logitech Gaming Software as an alternative to Dolby Digital. Dolby Digital is still present and superior in many use scenarios, but the ability to switch to dts Headphone X at will and play around with it is really cool. Imagine the opposite of tight focused audio, to the extent where the audio almost feels external to the headset like you can feel the direction of the audio. It's really something you have to experience for yourself, it's almost impossible to describe. I have found for games like CS:GO, I stick with Dolby Digital, as that tight audio has a good directional sense, as well as good tight sounding audio, but the dts headphone x settings are good enough that I would say the user could probably leave this one up to preference whether you want to use it or not. I've watched some Netflix, streamed music via Google Play, played some CS:GO, Arma 3, Rocket League, and Dragon Age Inquisition over the last 2 days to really see how this headset would perform over extended periods of time in a number of different cases. Headset sounds great when watching video, sounds really good for music, and handled each of the different games brilliantly. - Video: Whether it's action or dialogue heavy, the dynamic range of this headset and it's 7.1 channel audio make it a great choice - Music: At first, these might sound a tad more bass heavy depending on the music you are listen to, but the audio is really really tight, so the bass doesn't detract from the audio like it would with another headset (This is one complaint I had with the Kraken). There's so much customization in the control panel though that you can really make this sound however you want. - Games: The 4 games I listed above encompass a few different popular genres, each with different needs. In a game like CSGO - you want responsive, sharp, and crisp directional audio so that in a split second you can head if an enemy is walking behind you or if they're reloading just around the corner. In ARMA, you need something that can handle audio on a massive scale. You are out in the wilderness, hear a shot ring out over a distant valley, and need to quickly identify the direction, the type of weapon that made the shot, and how many shots. You need clarity and the ability to pick up fine details - this headset does that perfectly. In a game like Dragon Age, you want something that sounds great with lots of dialogue that handles a dynamic range of sounds, not really any explosions or gunshots - this game has more cinematic qualities. For the same reasons above with movies, this headset performs great with dialogue heavy games It's also nice that Logitech has given you the choice to do wireless or plug right into a sound-card with analog. I have an HT Omega eClaro sound card in my PC so I always like it when a headset plays nice with my audio card. (I'm looking at you, Razer Kraken) [Mic] This is often an overlooked aspect of gaming headsets which is really a shame because I can't tell you how many games of CS:GO are killed because of teammates with crappy microphones. Logitech and Sennheiser typically stand head and shoulders above most in this area. Most online games that I play require teamwork and communication and this headset will handle all of your voip needs without breaking a sweat. Just to put this headset through a variety of tests, I played with people using Skype, Mumble, Teamspeak, Ventrilo, CS:GO in-game, and ARMA3 in-game and the mic worked fantastic. For individuals who mostly play single player games or aren't much into gaming, the mic might not be as important to you, but as someone who has found many headsets at this price-point lacking in this area, it's great to see a headset that really nails it. [Verdict] At this point, I'm confident enough to make the claim that this is the best gaming headset I've ever used. There are better mics out there, there is better audio in other studio grade headphones, there are others that might be more comfortable, but there is no single headset I've found that crushes every category as great as this headset. They are comfortable, highly customizable, sound incredible in a variety of usage scenarios, have a great mic, and they aren't flimsy. The control buttons on the back are easy to use and easily accessible (though I did like the volume location on the G35 and G930 better) and the color customization settings are a nice feature too (orange goes great with my black/orange keyboard,PC,chair color scheme). As an all-in-one solution, the G933 can't be beat I highly recommend this headset! Two thumbs way way up! 5-stars And before anyone asks, yes I do actually own the headset - the 11/26/2015 release is only for certain online vendors. I picked this one up on Friday at a physical retailer. There is a pic attached as proof.

A new standard for headsets. (Plus sidetone on PS4!)
Ok, so before I jump into my review here, just know that I am not an "audiophile" (and most that claim they are don't know what that word means), and I am unbiased towards any brands or styles of headsets/headphones. That being said however, I have a passion for collecting and experiencing audio products such as headphones, theatre systems, car audio etc. I know good sound when I hear it, and these definitely live up to their hype. Audio Quality/Mic Functionality: Arguably the most important aspect of a good pair of headphones or headset. No one likes to listen to an unbalanced mess or poor positional audio precision. This headset nails it. Right out of the box, I literally plugged the usb dongle into my PS4, and boom, setup complete. My first reaction was an outloud "wow". I went through spotify listened to a few songs, as well as some shows on Netflix. All sounded clear, crisp, and very balanced with the lows, mids, and highs. The bass in particular is very tight and punchy. It makes electronic music sound amazing. So initially I was pleased, so I decided to download the Logitech sound customization software that is advertised with this headset. Oh my god. I was literally blown away. I have owned many of the higher end headets over the past few years, including Steelseries Wireless H, Astro A50's, PS Golds etc. Never in my life have I seen a customization spread like this one. You can customize every aspect of sound and functionality to your liking. EVERYTHING. Lows, mids, highs, surround, positional volume levels, driver levels, every frequency response imaginable, all can be individually tweaked. And as if this wasn't enough, every button on the headset can be programmed to your preference with a few simple clicks. Want to create 3 different unique sound profiles? Perfect, save each to the software, and map them all to their own buttons that can be changed on the fly. You can even customize the LED's on the sides of the headset. Choose from 16.8 million colors, make them fade in and out, change the intensity...whatever you could possibly think of, this has it. I could go on and on here, but check out any youtube reviews to see more info on it. Now for the mic, another very important aspect of a good headset. As far as quality goes, I will say the mic on the G933's is very good. It is not going to sound as good as a premium boom mic such as the mod mic 4.0, but it does more than get the job done. You will sound clear and crisp. A very convenient feature is the flip up mute. Once the mic is about half way up, it will illuminate red, beep once, and become muted. This is extremely convenient, as other headsets such as the A50's give no notification that the mic is muted once flipped up. Oh and remember the software mentioned above? Yeah, you can adjust all settings for the mic as well, including sidetone. Yes, you read that right, you can program this to support sidetone (mic monitoring) on the PS4. Dear Lord, has this been an overlooked and ignored problem with the PS4 operating system. PS4 supports no sidetone whatsoever, and has driven me insane. Now I can finally hear myself in intense matches online with my friends, and I no longer scream unknowingly. Thank you Logitech. Comfort/Build Quality: This headset is one of the most unique fits I've ever felt. They clamp firmly onto your head, but not too much. The earcup have more than enough room for your ears to not touch the drivers, and the material is...strange at first. The best way I can describe the ear muff material, is an abrasive thin mesh. At first I was put off from this, but after extended use, I have never felt a headset more breathable. My ears never get hot or sweaty, nor do I get any aches or pain from the cups. The headband is covered in the same abrasive material, but has medium firmness memory foam that rests on your head. Very, very comfortable. If I had to nit pick about anything however, it would be the cheaper feeling plastic that covers the rest of the headset. It's not horrible, but the earcups will swivel and flop everywhere while you hold it. Not a dealbreaker, but slightly annoying. Another awesome detail they added are the removable faceplates on the sides of the headset. They are magnetic, and can even house the usb dongle inside one of the earcups. Even the battery is removable/replaceable. This is something all headsets should come with. Once again, thank you Logitech. Features: So usually I would cover features of a headset, as far as extra things they can do, but this one does them all. Like mentioned above, the customization is unrivaled, even on headsets twice this price. Simple things like being able to pair this with your cell phone, and answering calls while gaming is insane, and has literally changed my expectations on what a headset should have. Even in the box you get all braided cables including; 1 usb to micro usb cable, 1 3.5mm male to male aux cable with both mic and audio input, and the rca passthrough cables. Completely above and beyond what they could have done, and for a reasonable price. Battery life is also incredible. With LED's on constantly, you'll get roughly 6-7 hours on a full charge. With no LED's on, you get over 12 hours. Overall: I have nothing but praise for this headset. I own many other pairs, but this one makes all of them look bad. Combine that with the deep customization, quality cables and materials used, and good customer service, this should be a no brainer if your even on the fence at all. Stop looking at Astro's, save yourself $150 and get these. I will also update with pictures as soon as possible. Thanks for reading! EDIT 07 Nov 2016: Headset is still working perfectly. I have absolutely no gripes or complaints. EDIT 10 JAN 2017: 0 complaints. Headset still working perfect. My wife uses it daily now and I'm using the ASRO's.(She likes this headset better)

Better than I Imagined.
These headphones are even more amazing than I could have imagined. They may be a bit spending, but well worth it. I had been playing on my PC with my PS4 Gold headset, which goes for around $100, this headset for just $40 more blows them out of the water. Although I have yet to do an extended gaming session with them, I did watch some 7.1 surround sound videos and listen to some tests of the system. When i first pressed the test button on the Logitech Gaming Software program, I wound up pulling my one ear piece off because i could have sworn that i wasnt even wearing my headphones and the sound had to be coming from the left of me. I could pinpoint exactly where the sound was supposedly coming from. The ONLY thing I could possibly find to complain about, is that they feel a little tight on my head for my liking, but knowing headsets/earmuffs/headphones i am sure the padding will soften up a bit more and thus alleviate the slight discomfort i feel strait out of the box. This is nowhere near enough of an issue to drop a star off my review though. Logitech has yet to fail me on any of the devices I have purchased from them, and this headset has impressed me more than any other computer accessory i have ever purchased. I cant wait until I get a good gaming session in with these, I dont think anyone will be sneaking up behind me on my games any more. I also have already learned that I enjoy watching videos with these on much more than I ever thought i would.

I loved my Turtle Beach X12, PX4 and XP400... Till I bought the Logitech G933
First off, let me address the biggest complaint I've seen on this item. Them falling backwards off of your head. This has NEVER happened to me once so I'm not sure how people are wearing these but if you have a normal shaped head and sit at your desk like a professional then this should never happen. I live stream on youtube and upload a few videos a week in which everyone I am using these headphones and you will never see me even have to fidget with or feel uncomfortable in this headset (youtube.com/sandsawks if curious) These are my favorite headphones I have ever bought. I originally came across these while looking for a set of phones that could give me PC and PS4 audio simultaneously. Theoretically they could (utilizing the 3.5mm to the PS4 controller and the wireless option to the PC). The sound quality on these is so great that during my testing I feared the MIC quality would not pass. Sure enough the first time I went to game with my friend I didn't even mention a new headset and he immediately asked why my MIC was so bad all of a sudden. My first reaction was that I had to return them, that you can't justify ~$120 and not have quality on all ends. But I instead decided to invest in an actual microphone and I am glad I did. To be fair that same friend told me my Audio Technica 2100-usb microphone also sounds bad when everyone else has complimented it so I now question the mic quality of this headset but as wireless headphones these can't be at the price.

Great Surround Sound Wireless Headset
I got this headset during the 50% off deal and I am really enjoying it with Battlefield 5. I decided to upgrade from my Logitech G430 headset. I was mainly looking for a wireless headset that had great battery life, great sound and did not cost too much. Even without the deal, the $200 price point is still reasonable compared to other wireless headsets. I was considering the Corsair and Astro's before purchasing this one. I am using this headset for my PC only, to game. The Headset: - Customizable buttons to change the Equalizer, play/pause, and many other options to choose from - Convenient volume dial to change sound on the fly. This is great so you dont have to minimize the game and adjust the volume settings with the mouse - Headset grips my head. I have an angled forehead which my old headset would easily slide off when moving around - Comfy ear pieces that does not cram my ears and feel uncomfortable - Comes with long braided charging cable, AUX cables, and RCA cables - USB adapter to connect the wireless headset it plug and play. You just need to make sure you install the Logitech dashboard to customize the headset - The Logitech logo and a line down each ear-cuff lights up. To me this is a pointless feature as I am wearing the headset and cannot see the lighting and only uses up battery life. I disabled the lights and my battery life increased by 3 hours. Sound: The sound i will say is significantly better than my G430. There are multiple equalizer profiles to choose from (FPS, Cinema, etc.). Once you turn on surround sound and 7.1, it makes a big difference of sounds. You can change the treble, bass, and customize the sound to your liking. Battery: I cannot say too much about the battery life, but after a full charge, and turning off the leds on the headset. It said I have 12 hours of battery left. After wearing the headset playing Battlefield 5 for 4 hours, I still had 93% battery life. Overtime with charges and draining, i would assume the life would degrade a bit and would get around 10 hours of battery. I did not check how long it takes to charge the headset from a full depletion. The only cons I have are the pointless LED lights if you are not showing off your headset. I do feel the headband part of the headset is not as strong as I would have expected it to be, just do not twist headband much.
