Logitech G25 racing wheel - Review

Force Feedback

Force feedback is present on the G25, as can be expected from a Racing wheel in this segment but Logitech have taken this technology a step further and set a new level or realism. Whilst the Driving Force Pro was lauded for its Force feedback effects, the G25’s Force feedback is far more refined than that of its forebear. Starting up the first game the differences are immediately apparent: The power transfer is fluid and, whereas in most force feedback wheels you get an almost “sawing” motion when you try and steer against the power flow, in the G25 this translates into a fluent motion and feels natural. Unlike most steering wheels that have Force feedback you don’t get that cheap “click, clack” noise when steering like you did with the Driving Force Pro.

Luckily Logitech did not have to sacrifice power to accomplish this and a nights hard gaming will leave you with aching muscles, thankfully Logitech have included the possibility to change the amount of force feedback to suit your taste in the control panel. The G25 utilizes two force feedback motors to ensure fast reaction times in both steering directions, and the steering column uses ball bearings for extra durability. Due to the precise and fluid power transfer of the steering wheel even the smallest and most subtle force feedback effects are relayed effectively to the user. Let there be no doubt, Logitech have set the new standard in Force feedback.
