I had only logitech for years, using Windows, Linux, BSD, Dos… without any issues. The older model (probably 15years+) is still working perfectly, mechanical & PS/2. And that has been drowned in Coffee, water, whiskey and what else. Put it in the washing machine (with some clothes to bolster), let it dry and use it like the first day! 👌🏼 Even my current one, for about 10 years in service works like a charm. I admit both are #lowtech devices
Yes, they have great products. I love their headphones (had the g930 & am now using the g935) but their software is something else. They're not updating their stuff to newer operating systems, so you have to find some workarounds.
Great products but a idgaf attitude on their drivers + software.
Yes, that sucks and is totally frustrating. Yet another “good” example of vendor lock-in.
That’s why I’m more cautious, research a lot and even test new products before I finally buy them. And I prefer simple “dump” solutions over “smart” ones, whenever possible.
Yes mate it's great HArdware. It's the software that kills it. Of course only newer stuff need it
