Logitech G923 TRUEFORCE PlayStation and PC + Driving Force Shifter

Ordered yesterday and delivered today. Immediately connected and started F1 2023 on the PS5, had the steering wheel recognized/configured (that was done in no time) and off to racing!

It really feels like there is a car hanging on your steering wheel, the force feedback (which is set to 50 by default) is very present. Unfortunately, not only in terms of feeling, but also in terms of sound. I thought for a moment that I had a defective copy, but after a quick search on YouTube this seems to be normal at Logitech because they use gears. This has the advantage that it hardly wears out. I also tested this handlebar with Dirt, it works well there too, but the force feedback is quite intense there too.

In addition, I don't think the TrueForce effect is that special. If all goes well, it will provide a better feeling with the road, but there will also be noise from the steering wheel. The latter takes some getting used to. If you're gaming with headphones on, you probably won't notice this, but in front of the TV it might be a bit too much. On the PC it is probably all still configurable, on the PS5 the solution for me was mainly to set the force feedback and so on quite a bit downwards.

Everything else is of very high quality. A nice black (leather) steering wheel with some handy buttons for the PS5 menus and good pedals. The brake pedal feels quite heavy, but that is also the case in real life, so it is very realistic. In terms of cable management, it is also good, you can shorten everything by winding it up at the bottom of the handlebars. If you sit far from your screen: the USB cable is 2 meters and comes from the steering rack (unlike my previous racing wheel where it came from the pedals). So if you sit a little further from the screen, you may need a USB extension cable.

The upgrade from the g29 to the g923 is minimal. The design has remained the same (but all black). However, this does not mean that this is a disadvantage. I am very satisfied with the racing wheel. I use it myself for F1 and Gran Turismo. The steering wheel feels completely different in the games, this is very realistic. Both the g29 and g923 work on the ps5.

Price is almost equal to the g920, then it is definitely worth buying the g923. TrueForce, if a game supports it, is a game changer. You would almost think there is a speaker in the steering wheel, but this is controlled by vibration. The handlebars are a joy to drive, and the accompanying shifter (purchased separately) really puts you in the game.

Highly recommended for those who take their first steps in the sim racing world and are looking for a price/quality handlebar. This is an experience that you can only have with a steering wheel. Especially if you're hitting the Nürburgring at 300 km/h.

9/10. Just under 10/10 due to the lack of TrueForce support in many games, but this will come in the future.
