Logitech G35 7.1 Surround Gaming Headset Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

The video presents a redo of the Logitech G35 unboxing, with Linus Tech Tips carefully walking through the packaging and the features to ensure an accurate first look. It begins by noting that the G35 is a USB headset with a built in sound card, enabling plug and play without a separate sound card in the computer. Linus highlights the packaging details including the 7.1 surround claim, which is described as a software driven Dolby technology based surround rather than an all hardware driven effect. The narrative covers the three interchangeable headbands and three G keys, designed for quick one touch control over music and voice, as well as the built in controls for volume, mic mute, and surround sound adjustments. The video then shifts to the hardware itself, showing the USB cable with a braided design, the adjustable microphone, and the movable earpads, while discussing the overall build quality, including a metal frame and rotation of the ear cups for fit. Along the way, Linus discusses the practical advantages and limitations of USB headsets, such as easier use with laptops and onboard sound quality versus the potential underperformance compared to a dedicated sound card. By the end, Linus summarizes the headset’s flexibility, the sizing markers for quick adjustment, and confirms the overall impression as a solid option for gamers who want integrated sound processing without a separate DAC, while noting that a full evaluation of performance requires further testing.
