CorsairHS80 RGB WIRELESS Multiplatform Gaming Headset - Dolby Atmos - Lightweight Comfort Design - Broadcast Quality Microphone - iCUE Compatible - PC, Mac, PS5, PS4 - Black

As of writing this review I have owned the headset for two and a half years. The praise I have is that the sound and microphone quality of this headset is excellent, better than anything I've tried by a lot. My criticism will be the durability of the headset.First, the good. This headset sounds absolutely great. I'm mostly talking about the microphone quality. Literally everyone on discord immediately commented on how great the microphone sounded (apparently everyone has to turn up my volume a little bit) and the ear phones are also super clear. I'm not a huge audiophile nerd or anything so maybe my opinion isn't much but out of the ten or fifteen different microphones I've tried (including some studio-quality microphones with audio hubs) this one is easily the best.The headset is also extremely comfortable, even over my glasses which used to press painfully into my head with other headsets. It has a convenient audio wheel on the back of it and I can flip the microphone up or down to instantly mute myself if I want to eat or drink while in a call and easily tell whether or not my microphone has been muted on the hardware.On to the bad. The first is the durability. I had to replace the ear pads about three months in. I went with a $13 pair of black mesh ear pads that have lasted me very well until now. The pads are good and are still completely intact but just keep in mind the initial purchase is probably not the only time you'll be spending money on this headset. After owning the headset for about two years, I will occasionally get issues where the audio quality on the headphones gets noticeably awful. It's always fixed by unplugging and replugging the headset and typically only happens whenever I remove or put on the headset too forcefully. I was also completely unable to get the wireless functions to work, although I didn't really care about this very much.Even with all the criticisms, this is still by far the best value for my money of any headset I've purchased. If the one I own ever does need to be replaced for any reason, I'm going to replace it with another identical copy.

Corsair HS80 Wireless with custom cooling gel ear pads. I bought them after the Void Elite Wireless (with the same ear pads), and I'm as happy as an elephant. In my opinion, ear pads with cooling gel are the best, because the sound becomes much richer. After buying the HS80, I immediately wanted the same ear pads that I bought for the Void Elite Wireless (Misodiko Cooling Gel). I can't help but note the presence of Dolby Atmos. Thanks to it, positioning in games has become much better, watching a movie has become much more enjoyable. The microphone has the clearest sound, but sometimes it lacks volume, but this is solved by amplifying the microphone in iCUE. They hold a charge all day, but I put them on charge every night. The operating range is short, but the connection speed is instant. Rarely after interrupting the connection and reconnecting, the microphone quality deteriorates, but this is solved by restarting the headphones. When connected to an iPhone (it does not matter, with a TYPE-C cable or connecting the transmitter directly to the phone) at maximum volume in the phone, the headphone sound is at 75-80 percent. You need to turn the volume control in order to set the sound to 100%. And when connecting the transmitter to the phone, the keyboard on the iPhone stops opening. But music from Apple Music to Lossless and Dolby Atmos sounds simply perfect in these headphones in my opinion. When you put them on charge, they turn on and stay with the backlight on. When you turn off the voice prompts, they stop making a sound signal when you turn off or turn on the microphone. On the Void Elite Wireless, when I turned them off, the sound prompts remained. Display battery charge. On the same Void Elite Wireless, although not very accurately, the percentage of charge was displayed, and on the HS80 only 4 states: High, medium, low and critical. And so, not counting these disadvantages, as for me, these are excellent headphones that you can safely buy (This also applies to the HS80 Max version)
