The performance aspect is where Logitech G533 needs to shine, and it does an excellent job here. The sound you are getting here is more of a studio-quality sound. In particular, this product comes with a brighter sound compared to others, and you can use the EQ to customize everything to your own needs.
You will find yourself boosting the bass quite a bit because the default settings don’t take advantage of that. The Logitech software can be a bit overwhelming at first when it comes to options. But it’s complex, and if you are an audiophile or know your way with the Logitech software from other tools, you will be fine. Otherwise, it will take a little bit to get used to.
There’s no major sense of richness to the audio, and you will see that it lacks the oomph of the G933 in particular. In the case of surround stereo, for example, things are pretty good. The 7.1 virtual sound mode is actually very impressive, and they did a very good job of adapting it and implementing how it works. That being said, there are moments when the sound is a bit hollow, just like you would be in a large chamber. You get that echo that shouldn’t really be there.
Since Logitech G533 uses the same drivers as the previous versions, there’s not a lot improved from the driver standpoint. Instead, the focus is on the audio engine provided here, which looks great, but it definitely could be improved a little bit more. That being said, the most important aspect here is the customizability aspect. You have a lot of ways to optimize and change how the headsets work for you. And that honestly becomes a huge advantage for most users as there’s just a whole lot of control other units will not be able to give you that quickly.
When it comes to other industry units at this price, you rarely get any that surpass the Logitech G533. The reason is simple. You don’t always get wireless audio that works super well but which is very dependable.
