Gaming headsets are getting more expensive. RGB lighting, detachable boom microphone, spatial audio branding and the list goes on. Everything seems designed to justify a hefty price tag. The Logitech G325 LIGHTSPEED wireless gaming headset is the exact opposite. It’s not flashy. It’s not aggressively “gamer”. It’s not trying to be a studio headset. It’s a lightweight, minimalist wireless gaming headset that focuses on comfort, clean design and solid everyday performance at an affordable price.

The first thing you will notice is what is missing – no boom mic. Instead, Logitech integrates a beamforming microphone directly into the earcup. The result is a headset that looks far closer to a pair of modern lifestyle headphones than something designed for gaming. No RGB. No angular spaceship aesthetic. Just clean lines.
At just 212 grams, this is one of the lightest wireless gaming headsets around. You feel it immediately when you pick it up. And more importantly, you don’t feel it much once it’s on your head.
Yes, it’s mostly plastic. If you are expecting metal hinges and a tank-like build, this is not. It feels light but not flimsy. Frankly speaking, I rather have a headset that disappears on my head than one that feels like a dumbbell.
Available in black and white (version reviewed), the G325 looks understated. You could wear this outside without screaming “I’m a gamer”. You get dual wireless with the LIGHTSPEED (2.4GHz wireless) and Bluetooth connectivity. Switching between them is easy. That makes it versatile, for example, you can be gaming on PC or console, then switching over to Bluetooth for music or calls on your smartphone.
If there is one reason to buy the G325, it is comfort. The memory foam ear cushions are soft. The fabric covering is breathable. The clamp force is balanced — snug enough to seal but not so tight that it creates pressure points. Because it is so light, you can wear this for hours without crown fatigue. That is something a lot of headsets struggle with. I have worn heavier “premium” models that start to annoy me after two hours. The G325 does not.
It is also reasonably glasses-friendly. No weird pressure on the temples. This is the kind of headset you forget you are wearing — and that is exactly what you want.
Out of the box, the G325 has a gaming-focused sound profile. It’s slightly mid-forward, with controlled bass and clear highs. Footsteps, directional cues and dialogue are easy to pick out. If you are coming from bass-heavy consumer headphones, you might initially think it sounds a little restrained. But that restraint works in competitive games. Explosions don’t overwhelm positional detail. Audio cues remain clear.
For music, I would recommend tweaking the EQ in Logitech’s G Hub software. The headset responds well to adjustments, and you can add low-end warmth if you want more punch. Is this audiophile territory? Definitely not. Is it strong for an S$149 wireless gaming headset? Hell yes. It doesn’t distort at high volumes. It doesn’t sound muddy. It sounds clean and functional, which is I think is what most gamers need.
The embedded beamforming mic is clever. Because it is built into the earcup, there is no arm to snap off, bend or lose. The headset looks cleaner and is more durable in that sense. However, a mic positioned inches from your mouth will always sound more intimate than one built into the left earcup.
The G325’s mic is perfectly usable for Discord, team chat and video calls. Voices are clear. It blocks some background noise. However, it does pick up mechanical keyboards and ambient sounds more than a traditional boom mic would. And there is a slight sense of distance to your voice. If you are streaming or recording content professionally, you will want a dedicated mic anyway. For everyday gaming? It’s more than fine.
The headset charges via USB-C with battery life rated at around 24 hours at 50% volume, and in real use, that feels about right. At higher volumes, expect closer to 20 hours.
VERDICT: The Logitech G325 LIGHTSPEED wireless gaming headset will probably not win you any esports tournaments. It’s for gamers who prioritise comfort, anyone who wants a clean, subtle design, users who need wireless flexibility, anyone tired of overly aggressive gamer aesthetics or any gamers who need something affordable, durable and simple.
If your priority is booming cinematic bass or studio-grade mic performance, there are other options but usually at a higher price. But if your priority is comfort, usability and value, this makes a very strong case.
