Inside, we find a reinforced cardboard insert box that slides out and houses the headset, which is nicely fastened into place to prevent movement. There is a separate box adorned with the phrase “keep playing,” inside of which we find the charging cable. The outer and inner boxes. When we take a look at the G535 build quality, there isn’t really much to rave about. The headset’s frame is made entirely of painted plastic, and I wouldn’t count on it withstanding too many drops. However, I can attest that it isn’t cheap flimsy plastic. The headphone cups have a smooth slider that allows for size adjustments, and a notch system to adjust the suspension band as needed.

The G535 is the lightest headset in the Logitech G line, at a mere 236 grams (about half of a pound). Compared to other headsets that are excessively heavy and impose too much clamping power, you almost forget you’re wearing it after an hour or two.The Logitech G535 exemplifies the concept of comfort in a gaming headset. Whether you are settling in for some competitive Valorant with friends or diving into a solo play-through of Elden Ring, the last thing you want is to be bothered by an uncomfortable headset.

One thing I should mention about my unboxing experience is the minor struggle I had locating the USB receiver that facilitates the headset’s wireless connection. After about 10 minutes of searching, I found it fastened to the bottom of the box containing the charging cable – a little bit odd. The microphone is compact and built with an easy flip-up mechanism that also serves to mute it. The controls are well placed with a power on/off button, and a volume control wheel found on the side of the left ear cup for easy access. Comfort That isn’t to say that the build quality is poor, more like average, and is what I expect from a low to mid-range gaming headset. The frame is sturdy, and the headset is easy to stow away and transport when needed. Next, I tested the Logitech G535 on a Playstation 5 by jumping into some solo Fortnite gameplay and seeing how they performed on console. Despite a generally neutral color scheme, the purple and blue multicolored elastic suspension headband adds a bit of colorful flair to the headset, giving it what I think is a futuristic look.The G535 don’t offer much in terms of bass-boosting or excessive rumbling, which some may miss, but for these first-person shooters, the bass is just fine.
