    It's interesting, but not in the "I want it" way of interesting, it's rather "tie your cat's rear legs together and glue a sticky note on its head to watch it trying to walk funny" interesting.
    The prices are a bucket of ice cold water dropped on your head - not poured out, just dropped so it hits you bottom first.
    Design is questionable, but subjective. The biggest flaw in this is definitely going to be software, as just saying "g hub" is enough to give some people ptsd and logitech are seriously doing themselves a disservice if they're going to rely on it long term without completely overhauling it.
    Time will tell how it will work out when it hits the masses.

    • @yubos98
      @yubos98 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hell right, G HUB is the bane of my existence as a Logitech G920 user prior to me getting a Moza R9. While SimPit is not the best thing in the world, it's miles ahead of G HUB in terms of stability. The bloody thing just works! I turn on the base - it gets detected, I go off to the races. With G HUB I had to relaunch the damned software all the time to make it recognize the wheel so that I could switch presets! Also, having the ability to use my smartphone to manipulate the wheel's settings without alt-tabbing is a great feature!

    It would be great if Logitech decide to sell this in Brazil/SA region where you can't really but any DD wheel from Fanatec/Moza etc, they could take an market that have no easy option. If they bring this to Brazil it would probably cost around 2k USD with taxes, but you can't really buy any other DD for less that 3/4k USD from a independent import, so would make this became an easy option for almost everyone who wants an DD wheel that is officially sold inside the country.

    • @AlwinCrasto

      Same here in India. I bet there are several countries just like ours where there are no DD wheels or load cell pedals selling but where Logitech already have established themselves by selling the G29 and other peripherals. If Logitech brings their G Pro wheel and pedals to these markets they'll be the only choice and stand to make a lot of money.

    I used the G29 for about 2 years on F1 2020 but I wanted to go Direct Drive. Here in Australia Fanatec is sold out everywhere, impossible to get and most of the others are too. So I went for the G9 Pro and it is fantastic. The more I get used to the fine adjustments it gets even better. The large plastic case I think is to make a channel for airflow all around to be sucked out the back with the 80mm exhaust fan. And the DD motor would be mounted directly to the bottom mounting plate. I also think the pedals are fantastic.

    Okay so you're liking the true force on the pro wheel, but you have yet to explain how exactly trueforce makes curbs feel even better, alongside those minor details. What about trueforce on this wheel makes it better than the g923, what differences can you feel in comparison? Other wheels have rumble motors as you mentioned, but nothing is compared with regards to the actual feel between the two, only adjectives describing it. If I sound critical, apologies, but if I'm watching this looking to make my purchase for a DD adjectives don't help

    I realise this is an older review but @randomcallsign I have a question re: the Logitech wheelbase and wheel (not the pedals, I agree there's better for the money).
    If you had a choice between the Simagic Alpha Mini base and GT Neo wheel OR the Logitech G Pro base and wheel combo... which gives the better FFB and experience overall? (not factoring other ecosystem considerations at all, just based on quality of FFB and experience with the driving)

  • @ACCLongy01
    @ACCLongy01 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The only reason to buy this over the Simagic Alpha mini is console compatibility. If you are a pc only user I would definitely go the Simagic route. Main stream reviewer's don't seem to get sent Simagic products to review hence they seem not to compare them.

  • @v0ldy54

    Little suggestion about the microphone audio: I'm not sure if you've tampered with it, but the voice seems to stop too abruptly going from a word to another, like you've got some strong noise reduction that's not just removing the noise floor but even parts of the words.

    UK pricing for this is £850. Which lines up nicely with the CSL DD Pro and mclaren wheel from fanatec, before shipping.. not sure why the €/$ price is so high but hey, makes a change for once we don't have to pay more than everyone else as usually the £ price is same as the $ price

    • @torbinzix1
      @torbinzix1 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sounds relatively reasonable, but honestly if those pedals are that expensive then they're actually not that good in fact they'll be boardline trash. As Logitech themselves are expecting people to mod mostly likely from a 3rd party. But if they can compete with Fanatec new pedals then they will actually seem to okay.

      UK prices are usually quoted inclusive of tax, which is why they end up around the same numerical value as the pre-tax dollar price. That £850 is before taxes, however, so you'd actually be paying £1,020.

      I guess I might be a little stronger Thani give myself credit for because I was able to handle the force feedback easily, though it’s definitely no slouch at 8nm peak torque and it definitely made my arms tired after hours of racing.
      It’s a GREAT setup. Maybe one day I will upgrade to DD1 or DD2. But for now, this is a great system and it’s really easy to set up.

    The simagic mini is a beast! There are tests made with it that have measured 13 nm peak (it’s on an iracing forum) so the 10 claimed is likely the continuous torque. It is price the same as this Logitech and it’s very tiny compared to this one. The quick release on simagic is amazing and the fact that you can run other usb wheels it’s just Amazing and I am not forced to an ecosystem. We can now argue that being quick release you can use Logitech with an usb wheel as well but just overall stick to simagic. Though one bad thing to note about it is the notch feel when it’s centered but I’m certainly that it’s all fixed with software updates.
