well i was excited to see what color of these we got but it looks like we got
the most boring one black with the blue ear tips these are the logitech
g333 headphones okay these are wired headphones they're 50 us dollars and
they have a couple compelling features that i think will make these really
popular they do come in three colors we got the black ones with the blue ear
tips uh we also got a pouch this this is
see-through this is acoustically transparent you could breathe through this light goes through it i'm happy
that they have a case of some type this looks very cheap the zipper seems fine
but it's just nice to have something so these this you know these are wired you
don't want them floating around your bag getting all tied up man who's making wired headphones
anymore it's actually kind of crazy to see these and they're being marketed
towards gamers for some reason uh i guess because wired is lower latency i
think they're just marketing towards gamers because
that's something you can do these are really just for anyone who doesn't want
wireless headphones sometimes you're on a zoom call if the call's already
started you need to run and grab some headphones you can't be putting people
on hold and trying to pair stuff you just want to plug something in that just works and you can depend on this so
that's good this is a huge selling feature in the box with a really
annoying tag on it comes a 3.5 to usb
type c adapter dongle these don't even come with your phone half the time
anymore and this alone is 10 anywhere
from about 7 to 14 us dollar value so
for a 50 headphone that's awesome all right then here's our nice logitech
looking shiny bag of extra silicone ear tips there's two
loaded on the buds already the housing on these earphones is actually aluminum
which is pretty cool like they don't seem that cheap or insubstantial for 50
important safety compliance and warranty information
oh yeah the mediums are a good size for me and my medium head
good seal uh my voice sounds different sounds like i'm wearing ear plugs
move my ears
and they're pretty good the cable on here is a flat cable
which is kind of cool it's slightly stiffer and the slightly less
tangly than like a conventional kind of
apple round one i like it it's pretty long say that's pretty standard like
maybe two and a half three feet dongle gets you it actually like three or four
inches now in line controls there's a built-in microphone right here
as well as plus minus i assume that's for volume
and then a center button for play pause or hang up the call answer
the call kind of stuff that's good too and that's again uh an
excuse for them to call a gamer is you know it is a headset you can plug it in
and you can play league of legends and you can hear everything and speak to your team but i mean it's
you could run this as executive and you know you get to take meetings it's just
a headset with a mic it's not gamer yeah whatever so it's kind of confusing
when you're on their website these were announced back in october
but prior to that in september a very similar looking earphone
from logitech also called the g333 was released but that's the g333vr version
it's basically the exact same although i believe it doesn't have the inline mic
and it has a shorter cable and it is the like official earphone of the oculus
quest so you're supposed to just plug it directly
into your headset which just requires a shorter cable there's also a second
version called the kda version or k slash d a i don't know how to pronounce
uh that branding but it's basically styled over the virtual
k-pop inspired girl group uh made popular by league of legends so if
you're into that kind of thing you can get the kda version
and i'm just too old for that i don't know what that is
well i guess there's nothing else to do but plug them in but before i check out
the sound quality here's a message from our sponsor redux readex is a pc builder
striving to bring pc gaming to the masses you pay the same price as if you
built a pc yourself plus a 75 build fee that is a flat 75 build fee no matter
what pc you're building through their online builder you can select your budget pick your games see how they
perform and then let redux build your pc for you all builds come with a two year
warranty so click the link in the video description and build your pc today and
then plug your gamer earphones in i mean
it's crazy you can buy like 20 truly wireless earbuds now so i don't know i
guess there are people who just want the wire
and maybe these sound a lot better than those types of cheapy truly wireless
because they do have dual drivers in them so there actually
are two dynamic drivers in each earphone one driver handles the
mids and highs and the other driver handles the base so they say it's boomy
bass and clear highs and that's what we're gonna evaluate now that's how you
test music baby steely Dan babylon sisters
damn now let's crank them
they go pretty loud at least on this song but
it's not uncomfortably loud i can't even hear my own voice right now but i'm not like ow loud
so i do want to try a different song i think the whole californication album by
chili peppers was like notoriously loud they like brick walled it like when they
mastered it i'll try something from that
not crazy loud louder than i'd ever use
some people might want louder than this but
like this isn't damaging my hearing and i do agree with their claims of boomy
bass they're definitely pretty bassy it's not like these are audiophile grade
headphones like in that realm boomi is kind of a bad
word and i think these meet that definition as well at the
bases especially when you turn it up like that a little
a little muddy they sound like super tight a little boomy um but
for the price these don't suck when i first plug them in i was like oh these these don't suck
i've i have used more expensive headphones especially in the truly
wireless realm that are worse than these um so i think they're probably gonna be
pretty popular now what i wanna do is try the other aspect of them i wanna do
a call so this is me recording a video on my phone
using this inline microphone as the mic this is
when i'm talking really close into it this is a little farther from it uh whoa
yowza i'm allowed now you got to do toxicity today because of
that nigerian wedding meme have you guys seen that have you seen that full crowd
of nigerians singing toxicity by system of a down at a wedding it's insane
i just wish you guys could listen to songs with me stupid copyright
for rock and roll this might actually be too bassy i might want to eq these and
take a little bit off they're not lying about the high the
clear highs though surges voice is pretty clear above the rest of the mix
right here it certainly makes like the guitar from metal really thick
like drop d tuning it's just like fat what i'm interested to test now is
whap by cardi b because i use that in my testing suite for the apple airpods max
headphones and i specifically remember how like
gravely the base was with those and they have really over pound space and they're
obviously huge over the years so i want to know how these stack up
weak all right i'm satisfied these are actually pretty good uh that's the
beauty of getting wired headphones still you don't have to pay for a charging
case with batteries like how many batteries are you getting with truly wireless headphones you're getting a
battery in each one of the earphones and in the case itself there's just you're
not paying for any of that crap with these you're probably not even paying for this
dongle it just comes free because logitech loves you these are sweet i would have got a more
fun color than the black ones well maybe i wouldn't i don't know but
you can i think these check all the boxes and achieve everything that logitech set out
to achieve with these if 50 bucks is your budget i recommend
these you could even sell the dongle and then you're looking at you know you're
down to 40 bucks let's flip this on facebook so thanks
for watching ShortCircuit today if you liked this video hit like hit subscribe and watch our other videos where i uh
try headphones and yell at them when they have crappy interfaces
that's another bonus there's no interface to mess with here i guess
other than these
