[Review] Level Up Your Game with the Showy Logitech G522 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Headset

Logitech G has officially launched its latest gaming headset in Singapore, the G522 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Headset, priced at S$239.

As part of the brand’s G5 Series, which includes the popular G502 gaming mouse and G515 keyboard, the G522 is designed to offer immersive sound, standout comfort, and gamer-first customisation.

Sleek Looks, Serious Performance

Building on the legacy of the earlier G733 headset, the G522 offers a sleeker and more modern look. It features customisable LIGHTSYNC RGB lighting with over 16.8 million color options and smooth, rounded edges that complement its revamped silhouette.

Available in Black and White, the headset blends style with functionality for gamers or just anyone who want your gear to stand out.

Trust me, you will stand out wearing it. I wore it to my neighbourhood gym for a short workout session and the changing bright lights certainly got me a lot of attention.

Engineered for Elite Audio

A key feature of the G522 are PRO-G 40 mm biocellulose drivers, delivering 48kHz/24-bit high-resolution audio.

Whether you are hearing subtle in-game cues or cinematic cutscenes, the soundscape is rich, detailed, and distortion-free.

For communications, the detachable 48kHz/16-bit mic, paired with Blue VO!CE tech, offers professional-grade voice clarity that can be further tuned using Logitech’s G HUB or mobile app.

All-Day Comfort for Every Gamer

Weighing just 290 grams, the G522 is built for long gaming sessions.

Logitech has paid extra attention to comfort, introducing wider memory foam ear cups, a breathable suspension headband, and a frame that accommodates glasses and earrings. I wore it to exercise and it was comfortable throughout the one-hour session.

Feedback from the gaming community helped shape the design, making it inclusive for all types of players. If it works for gamers, it delivers over and beyond for casual users.

Tri-Mode Connectivity

The G522 adapts to different playstyles with three ways to connect: Logitech’s low-latency LIGHTSPEED wireless, Bluetooth, and USB-C wired options.

This tri-mode setup ensures seamless compatibility with PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, and Bluetooth-enabled mobile devices, making transitions between platforms smooth and lag-free.

Smarter Battery, Greener Build

Battery life is also impressive, offering up to 90 hours without lighting and 40 hours with RGB on.

For the sustainability conscious consumers, the headset is made from 27% post-consumer recycled plastic, with zero plastic packaging, and comes with power-saving features like an 80% charge cap to preserve battery health.

Availability in Singapore

The G522 LIGHTSPEED is now available for purchase on Logitech G’s official Shopee and Lazada stores, as well as major offline retailers. At S$239, it is a solid offering for gamers looking for a balance of performance, comfort, and sustainability. Great for general usage as well for those who like your tech gear bling.
