The Logitech G store pages for the US, UK, Germany, Australia and India print 0.88 kg for the microphone only, 0.5 kg for the stand and 1.4 kg extended in the stand. The two maker sources conflict. The support figure of 0.55 kg is stored because the 2018 Blue guide, JB Hi-Fi, SHI and Home Studio Basics also give 0.55 kg or 1.2 lb for the microphone. The support page prints 2.2 lbs (1 kg) for the stand while JB Hi-Fi and Home Studio Basics print it as the weight with the stand, so weight_with_stand_g is left out.8Owner's manualglencoelibrary.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/User-guide.pdfRead 14 October 2026Blue Microphones Quick Start Guide, REV C, 2018, hosted by a public library because no Logitech-hosted copy was found. It prints Weight: 3.4lbs (.55kg) under Dimensions - mic with stand, so 0.55 kg is the microphone and 3.4 lb the whole unit. Tom's Guide also prints 3.4 pounds.
