Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've had nothing but problems with this headset. Should have just stuck with steelseries.

I recently received a pair of Corsair HS55 headphones and have been extremely pleased with them. The sound quality is top notch and the design is incredibly comfortable. The virtual 7.1 surround sound capability is great for gaming, and the headband is adjustable so they fit perfectly. I also really appreciate the detachable unidirectional noise-cancelling microphone which helps to isolate my voice and make sure I'm heard clearly. The headset is lightweight, so I can wear it for hours without feeling uncomfortable. The Corsair HS55 headphones have a great fit and finish. They feel sturdy and well-built while remaining lightweight and comfortable. The ear cups are made of breathable material and the adjustable headband fits securely without being too tight. The earcups are soft and the headband is padded, so they don't cause any discomfort even when worn for long periods of time. The microphone collapses upward and out of the way if you ever use them without the mic, and the controls are easy to access. Overall, the fit and finish of the Corsair HS55 headphones are excellent. The Corsair HS55 headphones are an excellent investment and I highly recommend them.

The HS55 Wireless headphones are lightweight, and Bluetooth enabled. I was able to move about the room without losing the signal. The noise cancelling feature does not block all outside noise, it does block most of it. The flip down microphone picks up voice clearly and without distortion. It also mutes when you flip it back up. The headphones are adjustable to fit properly. The top strap is also cushioned. The earpieces cover the entire ear and fit comfortably. There is a lot of adjustability with the playback, you can get it exactly how you need it. The Default setup works nicely. The battery life is up to 24 hours before a recharge is needed. I found I needed to recharge after every other day of use. The left earpiece has the Type C recharge port and the mute button and a volume control wheel conveniently located on the back of the earpiece easily reached by hand. The right earpiece has the Bluetooth button and the power button located on the back of the earpiece. Both earpieces rotate to flatten the headset for storage. The CORSAIR HS55 Headset is a nice addition to your game playing arsenal. I would recommend the Headset to family and friends.

Didn't work at all. Didnt come with a carger so I used a charger that I owned and it didn't even charge.

Cant take call when play game is realy poor and not recomended

Randomly murders friends ears when on calls. No current solution by Corsair online.

Unhappy with sound quality of product. When playing games using a mic, the sound of the game is distorted.

Microphone did not work after 3 days. Got another headset of the same model, and same thing happened.

work fine in Discord then go super quiet or start crackling feedback

stopped working a month after i was unable to return it

Let me start off by saying how impressed i am with this headset. Coming from hyperx products I was hesitant by not only switching to another brand but going from wired to wireless. My experience in the past with wireless headphones were always bad. But this headset is by far the best headset ive owned. The headset is light in weight, and it expands out enough to fit my big head. The ear cups go over my ears and they are very comfortable. I also do wear glasses, and this headset does not interfere or bother me while wearing. The mic feels a bit far away for my taste, but on discord my buddies can hear me quite fine. The sound quality is top notch! The standard stereo option, i get good crisp sounds. Now turn up to dolby and wow the sound quality just gets 10 times better. The install was a breeze, took maybe a minute or less. I can monitor and change my audio settings through iCue. Only thing I wish the software could have is a battery percentage number, but other than that this is a great product.

Not great. Battery life is minimal even after all day of charging. Sound quality is not great.

Only had for 3 months andd mic stopped working sometimes cuts off on my pc

Stopped working 2 hours owning them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love these headphones! Having never owned 'gaming' headphones, I wasn't sure if that meant they could only be used with a gaming device, but figured I'd give them a try since I'd seen people wearing similar style headphones in virtual calls. This was the primary reason I wanted to try them. I do a lot of virtual meetings for work, as we all do nowadays! I have pair of ear buds, but these fall out constantly and don't offer noise-canceling capabilities. They also start to bug my ear after about 20 minutes or so, and I'll have to switch to my laptop's regular mic. My dog barking and bird chirping are so easily heard that way. So, the headphones - very comfortable on my ears. I also love having the mic right in front of my face, although I didn't think that I would. With the ear buds, I find myself speaking louder, wanting to make sure I'm heard on the other end. With these, I can hear MYSELF and adjust the volume. While working from home, when not on a call, I like to have the radio playing. As I mentioned, I have a bird, and if she hears music, she sings - can be very annoying when trying to concentrate on a document or other project. The music sounds niiiice! I have a pair of Sony headphones from a few years back, these are way better. I highly recommend, although I'd get them in black next time.

Let me start by saying that I am new to gaming. Over the holidays, I got caught up in the frenzy and was able to get myself a PS5. With that, I purchased a couple accessories: another controller, a controller charger and a couple games. Little did I know that I would need (ok “want”) a wireless headset. I luckily found this Corsair HS55 wireless headset with Dolby 7.1, 2.4GHz wireless & bluetooth. I was playing a game on the PS5 and the sound was coming from my sound bar. It sounded pretty good - I thought. I put this headset on, I plugged the USB adapter into the PS5 and wham! It automatically transferred to the headset and I was hearing amazing clear sound. I don’t know how this happened, but I was thrilled it was so extremely easy and the sound was exceptional! I didn’t even think about the fact that I had a headset on - it was so comfortable. The microphone can simply be flipped up to mute your online chatting! And there is a volume control on the ear that is also a pre-set equalizer (4 pre-sets) that can be changed with a press. Great sound for sure and so easy to use. I highly recommend this Corsair HS55 wireless gaming headset! Great sound quality and comfort at a reasonable price.

Overall a decent PC headset, especially for those already invested in Corsair's expansive ecosystem. If you already have iCue installed for fans, keyboards, mice, etc, this headset fits right in. The headset comes in a nice box with almost all cardboard packaging. It includes the wireless receiver, USB A-C cable for charging via USB-C, and the headset itself. The headset is built well for the price point. It is a nice and minimal design that looks good with most PC setups. The earcups feel nice. The headset comfort on my head is alright, not amazing but not bad at all. The headset's capabilities are maximized by installing the icue software on PC. With that, you can change mic settings and EQ settings, as well as disable or enable surround sound. I found the sound to be in line with similar headsets. Works well for gaming. The microphone quality is also in line with similar headsets. For some reason, I could not get the sidetone functionality to work, even on the latest firmware as of this review. The software is very powerful and easy to use with a whole suite of products like fans, keyboards, mice, but overkill for just a headset. I did not have any issues with wireless reception. Pros - Good build quality. Clean design. Wireless. Charges via usb-c. Mic muting button or flip up. Integrates into existing ecosystems for many users. Cons - Comfort just OK. Sidetone didn't work (may be fixed in a future update). Overall I think for a person who's invested in iCue this headset makes a good purchase. For those without any corsair products, go check it out in person and you might like it.

Okay, this could have been a very different review. I was going to give these a two star rating but I said Corsair wouldn't put out a budget headset that sounds like I have two cardboard boxes on the sides of my head... would they? I am happy to report that they did not do that (after some tweaking). The first thing is the instructions are a bit interesting. Either my medication has my reading comprehension way down or they need to give more information that is clearer than what is in the provided instructions. For example, going between connecting with Bluetooth or wireless 2.4Ghz with the USB adapter was interesting. Sometimes it would flip between sources and sometimes it wouldn't. No biggie as I said earlier. I'll blame myself for that. Now, I connected these to three different computers using the dongle (you can connect to a PC via Bluetooth but you will not get any sound so don't bother) The EQ settings were set to the same place on all the computers yet these headphones sounded different on all of them. Could not replicate the same sound quality across the board with all of the computers. Odd but not a deal breaker yet. My cellphones on the other hand was a experience. My LG V30 makes these headphones sound very, very good when playing music of a few genres (rock, rap, classical and basically anything pre 2005). The daily driver is a Samsung S21 Ultra and let's just say don't bother trying to listen to music via Bluetooth with these. You will be disappointed. I used the same app on both phones to listen to music on the phones and well, the gaming part holds up but don't try and jam with these on. If you buy these for gaming you won't be disappointed unless you have had a really good pair of headphones before than I'd spend some extra money and upgrade to a higher model by corsair.

Connectivity is very good and it’s super easy to use just plug in the usb stick and it works right away! The quality is excellent it’s over ears and the weight is lower than wired headset overall 10/10 must recommend.

The bass and sound quality is the best I've heard yet. The problem is that things start to break, and it's annoying. The plate that goes above the driver cracked and fell apart The hinge that makes the drivers face flat starts to crack and cause it to turn in any direction, risking snapping the wires. Overall, it's not a bad headset
