Logitech G Yeti GX vs Logitech G Yeti Comparison

Logitech G Yeti GX

The dynamic capsule feeds a converter running at up to 24-bit / 96 kHz. Logitech tunes it for speech, with a focused midrange that sits forward in a mix with game audio or music. Blue VO!CE in G HUB adds EQ, compression and a noise gate for broadcast-style polish. Without the software, the raw sound is clean but slightly plain.

Logitech G Yeti

Logitech lists 16-bit / 48 kHz conversion, a 20 Hz to 20 kHz response and a 120 dB maximum SPL at 0.5% THD. The three 14 mm condenser capsules give the Yeti a bright, detailed character. Voices sound open and airy at about 15 to 20 cm, with more top-end sparkle than a typical dynamic.

Logitech G Yeti GX

Supercardioid pickup is narrower than cardioid, rejecting sound from the sides with a small lobe at the rear. That shape is built for gamers with loud mechanical keyboards. The trade-off is that you must stay on axis. Turning to a second monitor changes your level, so a boom arm that keeps the mic in front of your mouth helps.

A rear switch selects cardioid, bidirectional, omnidirectional or stereo. Cardioid is the mode for meetings, while bidirectional suits two people sitting across a table. Omni picks up a whole circle of speakers, which is handy for an impromptu group call around one laptop. Stereo adds width for music or ambient recordings but adds little to speech.

Logitech G Yeti GX

A control dial on the mic adjusts gain and mutes with a press, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack provides zero-latency monitoring. Hardware mute is a big plus for meetings, because it works regardless of the app. The lighting changes colour when muted, which helps you check status at a glance during long calls.

Logitech G Yeti

On the front sit a mute button with a status light and a headphone volume dial. A gain dial on the rear sets sensitivity, and the 3.5 mm jack provides latency-free monitoring. A physical mute that works in any app is valuable in meetings. The light flashes red when muted, so a quick glance confirms whether your colleagues can hear you.

Logitech G Yeti GX

The Yeti GX uses Logitech G HUB for its companion software. Onboard DSP is listed as Blue VO!CE (via G HUB). The software or onboard controls also include monitoring (3.5 mm headphone output), gain control (dial) and a limiter (analog limiter / Smart Audio Lock). Official capture is listed at up to 96 kHz and 24-bit.

The Yeti uses Logitech G HUB for its companion software. Onboard DSP is listed as Blue VO!CE (via G HUB). The software or onboard controls also include EQ or presets (EQ in G HUB / Blue VO!CE), monitoring (3.5 mm headphone output), gain control (rear dial) and a limiter (Blue VO!CE limiter in G HUB).

Logitech lists the weight at 616 g, and the mic ships with a desk stand. The body is solid metal and plastic, with a rubberised base that resists sliding. The stand raises the capsule reasonably high, and the mic can be removed for a boom arm. Lighting around the body is customisable, and you can switch it off for a more professional look on calls.

Logitech G Yeti

The mic alone weighs 550 g, and the metal desk stand adds about 1 kg. An internal shock mount isolates the capsule array from small knocks and desk vibration. The side-address design means you speak into the front, not the top. You can remove the stand and mount it on a boom arm, though its weight calls for a solid arm rather than a light clamp-on model.
