I have a Logi G935. G Hub has finally stopped pooping the bed and is decent software now. But after a bit over 3 years the G935 has worn out - it's full of loose connections to the right-side earcup and the mic. Very disappointing. Also the earpads are flaking, but that's normal wear.

So, looking for recommendations. I like Logi hardware, but obviously I'm not going to buy another one of these if they're still lemons.

Sorry if this is the wrong community for this.

I moved away from "Gaming headsets" years ago and I don't think I'll ever go back. Bad audio quality, connection issues, and poor longevity are rampant problems.

I'm an advocate for a desktop mic and a nice set of headphones. I use a blue yeti snoball and a pair of Sony Wh1000-xm3's. I am considering upgrading to some open back Sennheisers though.

The main disadvantage is that you can't walk to the kitchen/bathroom and keep talking in discord but it's well worth it for audio quality and longevity.
