Professional reviewers commend the G432 for its feather-light build, solid 50 mm drivers and DTS Headphone:X 2.0 surround that delivers precise positional audio, while also noting the convenience of a flip-to-mute mic and cross-platform cable options. Criticisms focus on the limited Windows-only software features, headband wear over time, and the absence of active noise cancellation.
Everyday users love the headset's comfort, clear mic and easy inline controls, especially for long gaming sessions, but they frequently mention headband padding softening, hard ear pads at first use, and the need for Windows-only software to unlock full surround capabilities.
Professional reviewers commend the BlackShark V2 for its comfortable fit, high-fidelity drivers, and clear microphone, making it a strong choice for competitive esports. However, they consistently note its lack of portability, absence of active noise cancellation, and wired-only design limit its appeal for gamers who need a travel-friendly or wireless solution.
Opt for BlackShark V2 if you prioritize THX Spatial audio and a premium mic; opt for G432 for a more affordable, lighter package with DTS surround.
