The Logitech G733 Lightspeed
The Logitech G733 Lightspeed comes with a USB-C to USB-A charging cable, a LIGHTSPEED wireless receiver, a detachable microphone, and a reversible soft headband in the box. The Logitech G733 is a decent gaming headset with good sound quality and a good comfort level, but a bit lackluster with the mic. All in all a decent headset with good customizability and with a little tweaking great bass. It currently comes in 4 colors: black, blue, lilac, and white which means you have some choices if you choose to pick this headset up!

The Design
The design is lightweight which helps with those long game sessions but it is a little on the bulky side, and with no way to fold it down for easier traveling it'll probably just sit on your desk ready for the gaming world. It has all the controls for this headset on the left ear. The top button is for muting the mic, then the wheel is the volume control up and down, you also have the power button right underneath the wheel as well, then last but not least you have the USB-C charging port. USB-C charging port is snug so I have no fear of it popping out by itself while you are charging it. The reversible soft headband is a nice addition and I'm happy to report it does not irritate my bald head but is rather comfy.
G Hub & Customizability
The Logitech G733 Lightspeed is very customizable once you download the G Hub software. It's actually really good software that helps the G733 get where it needs to be. You will have lots of different options from lighting to surround sound. Volume and mic sound levels, advanced EQ, as well as many assignments that you can assign for audio, commands, and keys to name a few things that are in the software. They also have a program that will customize your voice through the mic to make it sound like a broadcaster or other adjustments that you can play around with until you find the right sound for you (or what you think you should sound like).
Sound Quality
The sound quality is good and on the default setting it's pretty clear sounding but the bass is a little lacking for me. There is also an issue where it doesn't get very loud even with the volume all the way up 100%(that's where it sits for me), but when you adjust the bass the headset starts to come alive. (The setting I have that I really like in G Hub is bass 8dB and Treble 4dB) I really like the feel and sound of the bass once it's tweaked it really bumps!!! But only use this setting for listening to music, because when I use this setting I do get the occasional muffled sound and sometimes it doesn't sound as crisp when not listening to music.
The Mic
The mic is probably the thing that I have to most problem with on this product. When I was using the mic it always seemed to have a lot of static with it. The mic also has some pitch issues. You could always try and remedy this by using the Blue VO!CE program included in the G Hub software. However, the mic is detachable so you can always go without it and go a different route with it.
Comfortability And Battery Life
After wearing this headset for hours with no discomfort is really something, the other headset I had before this I would have to take off after a few hours so this is a breath of fresh air to be able to stay comfortable for such a long time. How lightweight it is also helps in this category that is for sure. The battery life is pretty good I have not had any issues when it gets below 15% the RGB lights on the side will start breathing Red. A neat little thing you can do to check what percent your battery is you just press the power button really fast and it'll tell you what percent you have left charged!
Summary
In summary, the G733 Lightspeed is a decent headset with its share of faults but thankful it comes with software (G Hub) that can fix some of the issues that come up, you just have to tweak it till you're happy with it. I personally enjoy using it with the comfy reversible soft headband, ear cups, and that bass is just right for me. I feel like if you're looking for a good wireless headset for gaming or just surfing the web it's not a bad choice, but remember it does have some challenges.
