Generation & platform
The scores rank quality. This is the other question: is the newer one actually newer technology, or the same platform in a new shell?
Same generation
The Logitech G325 Lightspeed is 3 years newer, but it is the same generation of hardware: nothing in the radio, the codecs or the noise cancelling separates them. Nothing separates them on convenience features either, so the choice comes down to tuning and price. For 3 years between them, that is a thin return - treat this as a restyle rather than a new platform.

What reviewers said
JLab Nightfall Wired
The JLab Nightfall Wired is a budget-friendly gaming headset that delivers punchy, bass-forward audio from its 50mm drivers, with a comfortable build and straightforward 3.5mm connectivity across platforms. Its flip-to-mute electret mic adds convenience, but the cable can pick up noise and the sound profile may not suit everyone. Overall, it’s a solid pick for casual gamers seeking value, though not without minor compromises.

- Pro:Comfortable and lightweight at 250g
- Pro:Simple universal 3.5mm connection
- Con:Microphone quality is noticeably weak
- Con:Cable crosstalk can be distracting
