Logitech G29 and G920 review: one $299.99 box, split by console

Researched overview Manufacturer listings and owner reports, with no hands-on testing.

The Logitech G29 and G920 are one $299.99 listing on Logitech’s US store with a console switch on it. Order the PS5 / PS4 / PC option and you get the G29; order the XBOX Series X|S /XBOX One/PC option and you get the G920. Both boxes hold the wheel, a three-pedal set with a clutch, a power adapter, and documentation, and both wheels clamp to a desk on a built-in clamping system, so $299.99 is the whole cost of a setup you can drive.

The two are not one wheel with a different logo. Logitech publishes a separate technical specification sheet for each, and the sheets differ in the controls: the G29 gets RPM/Shift Indicator LEDs, a 24-point Selection Dial, and + / - buttons, and the G920 sheet lists none of those. Everything under the rim matches line for line, including the drivetrain, which both sheets give as “Dual-motor force feedback; helical gearing”.

Logitech spells the fork out in the listing copy: “G29 is for PS5, PS4, PS3 and PC” and “G920 for XBOX Series X|S, XBOX One, and PC”. Pick wrong and there is no adapter, no firmware switch, and no second license to buy. The console you race on decides the SKU, and PC is the only platform on both sides.

Past the console, Logitech’s two spec sheets disagree in ways a buyer can feel. Every row below is quoted from the sheet for that model, checked 28 July 2026.

The dial is the one to weigh. On the G29 the 24-point Selection Dial and the + / - pair give you in-car adjustment on the rim, which is brake bias, traction control, and engine map in iRacing and ACC without reaching for the keyboard. The G920 sheet lists neither, so the same adjustments go on a keybind or a button box. The RPM/shift LEDs run the same way: on the G29 sheet they are the indicator lights, and on the G920 sheet the indicator lights are Power/Status.

Two rows in that table are absences rather than denials. Logitech’s G920 sheet does not name macOS, which is not the same as Logitech saying the G920 fails on a Mac, and the G29 sheet carries no clamp row even though the mounting article covers “the clamping system on the G29 or G920” for both.

What matches, and what Logitech never states

Section titled “What matches, and what Logitech never states”

Both sheets give the wheel as 2.25 kg and the pedal unit as 3.10 kg, both run 900 degrees maximum rotation, both connect over corded USB 2.0 at full speed on a 6 ft (1.8 m) cable, both take a 24V 1.75A autoswitching adapter, and both read “Pedals (3) - Throttle, Brake, and Clutch” over a DB9 (Male) connector. The store listing, not the sheets, carries the 2-year limited hardware warranty.

Three things a buyer asks about are not on any Logitech page:

  • How the brake is sensed. The sheets name three pedals and a connector and stop there. The store listing describes a “Nonlinear brake pedal” and a self-calibrating pedal set, which is a shape of response rather than a sensor. Owner reports of the throttle sticking and jumping are what put a potentiometer behind it, and pedal troubleshooting covers the dust-on-the-track failure that follows from one.
  • Peak torque. “2.3 Nm Racing System” is a subtitle on a shop page, not a spec row, and Logitech never says whether it is peak or sustained.
  • Whether the Hall sensor reaches the pedals. The store’s spec tab lists a “Hall-effect steering sensor”, which is the steering-angle sensor in the wheel. Logitech states nothing about how the pedals are read.

One more thing about that store spec tab: it publishes only the G29’s system requirements, listing “G29” and “PlayStation 5, 4, 3”, and it serves the same block on the Xbox SKU’s own URL. The per-model support sheets are where the G920’s requirements actually live.

The cheapest complete setup that still ships pedals, for a driver on one console who is not ready to spend triple.

Buy it if:

  • You race on PlayStation or Xbox and want the lowest complete price: $299.99 covers the wheel, three pedals, and the clamp, with nothing else to buy before the first lap.
  • You want a clutch pedal for a manual car, in BeamNG or a road car in Assetto Corsa, without adding a third-pedal SKU.
  • You are on Xbox and want a wheel that works today. Xbox licensing lives in the rim across the industry, which is why the Xbox shelf is short. See console sim racing for the whole fork.

Not the one if you already know you want direct drive (start at the Moza R3 at $299 on PC or the Thrustmaster T598 for PlayStation, or for Xbox on its Xbox & PC configuration) or if your budget can reach a load-cell brake, which moves lap times more than torque does.

  • The console choice is permanent. No adapter in Logitech’s catalog moves a G29 to Xbox or a G920 to PlayStation. If you own both consoles, the wheel only follows you on PC.
  • The G920 loses the dial and the shift LEDs. Logitech’s own sheet is the source, and it is easy to miss because the store sells both under one description that names a 24-point selection dial without saying which model has it.
  • Gears are the ceiling. Helical gearing means backlash, and owners describe an 8-10 degree band on center where small inputs produce no felt force. No setting removes it. The settings guide covers the one lever that helps, in-sim Min Force, and this is the wheel class where you raise it instead of leaving it at 0.
  • The brake is travel, not pressure. You hit a pedal distance rather than a pressure target, so brake points are harder to repeat lap after lap. Pedal calibration and tuning covers why, and the pedal buying guide covers the load-cell sets that fix it.
  • Logitech marks no generation. Its racing wheels category carried the G920/G29 card on 28 July 2026 next to the G923 and the RS line, with nothing labeling any of them current or superseded. The catalog settles nothing about where this sits in a lifecycle.

Logitech names two paid paths from its own listings, and both keep hardware you already own:

  • Driving Force Shifter, $59.99, SKU 941-000119. A 6-speed H-pattern with reverse that Logitech says to pair with “compatible G923, G29, and G920 wheel and pedals”.
  • Racing Adapter, $39.99, SKU 943-000435. Logitech’s own framing is two directions: “Upgrade to a Direct Drive base with ease all while keeping your existing G Series Pedals and Driving Force Shifter”, compatible with “G25/G27/G29/G920/G923 pedals”, and “Stick with your G Series wheel and upgrade to pedals with Load Cell brake technology”, compatible with “G25/G27/G29/G920/G923 Wheels”.

The second is the interesting one, because it turns the usual advice into a purchase you can actually make: keep the G29 or G920 rim and put load-cell pedals under it, which is the upgrade the upgrade order guide puts first.

  • Logitech G923: $349.99, the same 2.3 Nm class with TrueForce added, in its own PlayStation and Xbox SKUs. Its review counts the titles Logitech marks for TrueForce on each platform, which is 14 on PlayStation, 19 on PC, and 9 on Xbox, and that list is what decides whether the $50 buys you anything.
  • Moza R3: $299 for a genuine 3.9Nm direct drive with wheel and pedals, PC only unless you take the Xbox & PC configuration. Same money, no gear lash, less strength than the number suggests.
  • Thrustmaster T598: a 5Nm direct-drive system at a step up in price, for PlayStation and PC unless you take the Xbox & PC configuration, if PS5 is the reason you were looking at a G29.
  • Logitech RS50: Logitech’s first true direct drive at 8Nm, base only from about $349.99, so budget for a hub and a rim on top.

If the money is not there yet, spend the wheel budget here and the next $150 on a load-cell brake rather than on the G923’s extra $50. Braking consistency is what a travel pedal costs you, and it is the part of this setup that limits lap time first. The one case that flips it is a title on Logitech’s TrueForce list for your platform, Gran Turismo 7 on PlayStation and iRacing on PC above all, and the G923 review carries the full list per platform.

Every figure above was read on 28 July 2026 from one of these, all returning HTTP 200:

Two older Logitech support articles are out of step with the sheets above and are not used here: supported PC operating systems for the G29 and G920 tops out at Windows 10 and names Windows Vista, and supported gaming console systems for the G920 lists Xbox One alone.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the Logitech G29 and G920?

The console, and the controls on the rim. Logitech's US store sells both at $299.99 off one listing: SKU 941-000110 is labeled PS5 / PS4 / PC and SKU 941-000121 is labeled XBOX Series X|S /XBOX One/PC. Beyond that, Logitech's two support spec sheets differ. The G29 sheet lists RPM/Shift Indicator LEDs, a 24-point Selection Dial, and + / - buttons; the G920 sheet lists Power/Status indicator lights and none of the three. Everything mechanical on the two sheets matches: 900 degrees maximum rotation, dual-motor force feedback with helical gearing, a 2.25 kg wheel, and a 3.10 kg three-pedal set.

Does the G29 work on Xbox, or the G920 on PlayStation?

No. Logitech's listing says to pick before you buy: "G29 is for PS5, PS4, PS3 and PC" and "G920 for XBOX Series X|S, XBOX One, and PC". The license is fixed in the wheel you order and there is no adapter path in Logitech's own catalog. Both run on PC, so PC is the only side of the fork you get either way.

How much torque does a G29 or G920 have?

Logitech's store listing carries the subtitle "2.3 Nm Racing System" and neither support spec sheet states a torque figure at all, so 2.3 Nm is the only number Logitech publishes and it is not labeled peak or holding. What the sheets do state is the drivetrain: dual-motor force feedback through helical gearing. That is a gear wheel, so the ceiling is roughly a quarter of an 8Nm direct drive base and the gears filter fine detail on the way to your hands.

Do the G29 and G920 come with pedals and a shifter?

Pedals yes, shifter no. Both spec sheets read "Pedals (3) - Throttle, Brake, and Clutch", and Logitech's box list is a steering wheel, pedals, a power adapter, and user documentation. The H-pattern shifter is the separate Driving Force Shifter at $59.99, which Logitech says to pair with "compatible G923, G29, and G920 wheel and pedals". See H-pattern vs sequential.

Should I buy a G29/G920 or a G923?

The G923 is a separate Logitech listing at $349.99 with its own PlayStation and Xbox SKUs, and its subtitle reads "2.3 Nm with TRUEFORCE Racing System" against the plain "2.3 Nm Racing System" on the G29/G920. The $50 buys TrueForce, a high-frequency haptic channel that adds engine and road texture in supported titles. It does nothing for the gear backlash or the center dead spot, which is what the settings guide covers. Whether it is worth $50 turns on whether your titles are on Logitech's list, and the G923 review counts them per platform. All four SKUs sit in one table, with the console, TrueForce, and rim-control decisions in order, on G29 vs G920 vs G923.

Do I need to buy anything else to use a G29 or G920 on a desk?

No. Logitech's mounting article says both wheels "come equipped with bolt mounting points on the bottom of the wheel and pedals units" for M6X1 screws, and adds that "you can also use the clamping system on the G29 or G920". The clamp is part of the product rather than an accessory, so $299.99 covers a wheel, pedals, and a way to hold them down. The G920 spec sheet gives the clamp's reach as "Extends up to 50mm"; the G29 sheet has no clamp row.
