this is actually going to be a re unboxing so to speak of the Logitech G35
now you can see the box has clearly been undone already but I made some critical
errors in the information during my original unboxing so I figured I better
make sure that I do the product Justice and give you guys the most accurate
possible information so I am redoing it so the
first thing we're going to do is have a look at the packag itself where we will
find out some interesting things about the product first of
all this right here 7.1 surround so that
is a virtual 7.1 surround that is
powered by Dolby technology okay so there are two actual speakers so the 7.1
virtual surround is a software thing all right we have three swappable headband
pads that let you choose the one that best fits your head uh that is here okay
then we have three customiz ible G keys for OneTouch command over music voice
morphing and more whatever you desire we have onar audio controls for quick
access to volume mic mute and Surround Sound adjustments adjustable noise
cancelling microphone as well as full speed All Digital USB connection so that
means this has a built-in sound card so you will not need any sound card at all
in your computer in order to use this headset which has advantages and
disadvantages which we'll talk about in a bit here's a quick start guide here's
uh survey safety and warranty as well as a driver disc
throw it away download the latest off the Logitech website here we will find a
spacer and then digging in even deeper
we will find the G35 itself aha this is
more than a spacer I'm sorry guys here
you are it also contains the uh can you see that letter
it also contains the C cup and the b cup
depending what size your head is the one
included by default is an A so I'm going
to go ahead and put that on show you guys what the G35 looks like and I'm
also going to show you guys why I am not a headphone model so here's the USB
cable you can see we're using a nice thick braided cord here hopefully you
can see that the odds of that being destroyed by even the most determined
cat uh are fairly slim here's the
raisable and and lowerable microphone it's got a bit of flex in it so you can
actually position it according to where your mouth is quite easily all right now
I want to show you guys the controls on the headset so these are those
programmable G keys right here 1 two 3 we also have a microphone mute as well
as a volume adjustment wheel here then
there's the surround sound Turner offer or Turner back oner I guess I could call
it a switch so here you can I don't know
if you're going to be able to see this but there's actually one speaker in there so the surround sound effects are
done by software just like with the
Corsair hs1 which actually brings us to
the advantages and disadvantages of a USB headset so the advantage is that if
you're using a laptop or if you're using an onboard sound you are going to have
better overall quality from this approach the disadvantage is that if
you're using a halfway decent sound card then you're not even going to get close
with whatever with what whatever uh amplifier they're able to power over USB
and with whatever sound chips that they're using in there you're not even
going to be close not even approaching a dedicated sound card and a regular
analog headset I mean I'd love it if they gave you the option kind of like
some of the steel series headsets but thems the brakes we're dealing with what
we're dealing with here and it does have a lot of flexibility that you don't have
with a regular headset and because you can't install a sound card like I said
in a laptop which a lot of gamers are using these days okay so let's have a
look at the overall build of the G35 I
suspect you'd have to have a pretty good nerd rage going on in order to break
this you've got like the this rubber top for the headband here you've got a
pretty durable overall fit and finish to the whole thing uh this is metal so
where you're actually resizing the headset I can't imagine it would break
as you can see it's made of some kind of yeah some kind of a metal uh it's
actually got little markers for all the different sizes which is kind of a nice
because that way you can just kind of if someone borrows your headset you can remember oh I'm at size six and then you
can easily resize it without uh fiddling around with it too much the ear cups do
rotate a little bit so depending on whether your head is shaped like this or
like this or whatever the case may be it should fit you quite nicely and uh we
got the microphone we covered that and I think that's pretty much it so thank you
