Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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

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

The Corsair-HS Series HS55 headphones are extremely light weight and awesome in clarity of sound. They are 100% clearer than any other brand of headphones that I have owned. Everyone that I have been in discord (the gaming chat app that i use) has told me that the mic is 100% clearer than the cheap ones I have. that's just some of the pros that I can give without going into the only one con which is the fact that they are not RGB which is the one thing that Corsair is big on in my opinion. Back to the pros they are Blue Tooth capable and have a range of 50 feet both on the WiFi side and Blue tooth, with the blue tooth you can connect to you phone, answer you phone, play music from your phone even the games on your phone. For the WiFi use you would need to go to the Corsair website and down load iCue 4 then plug in the dongle which comes with it from there you would check for firmware updates once that is done you can check the settings out and set them up for your own listening pleasure, they are very comfortable for someone that wears glasses and hearing aids for those who do wear them like I do. I actually was very impressed when I put them on and never got any feed back from them at all with my hearing aids in. In my humble opinion for any gamer they are 100% with the money!!!!

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

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

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

My ten year old got an inexpensive “gamer headset” after the holding when he received his PC Setup, while that was doing the trick, he was BEYOND excited to show off this headset to his buddies and gloat. Being wireless, this is so convenient to use and he doesn’t get all tied up in the connection to the computer (or, g-d forbid, pull out the connection and lose access to his buddies for a whole minute). It’s really comfortable, I tried it on and was super impressed by the comfort and it’s not heavy on his young head. We also love that we’ve been able to easily connect it via Bluetooth to his tablet so he can use it there as well. We have not maxed out the battery power, in one sitting, so I can’t guarantee that it lasts 24 hours but it really does charge super quickly and after 15 to 20 minutes of charging it was good to go for many long hours on a rainy Friday afternoon and evening. I’m really impressed with the quality as it looks like we’ve, now, got a great piece that will last for quite some time!

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

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

[Employee of bestbuy] Only had for 3 months andd mic stopped working sometimes cuts off on my pc

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.

My last 4 pairs of full-ear headphones have been Corsair, so given the opportunity to see what they newly brought to the table was a welcome opportunity. Here's what's new - #1 - Dolby Atmos (7.1) , #2 - Bluetooth! - #3 the continued ability to use the PC USB dongle - #4 - SUPER lightweight! - #5 - extreme range (distance) - #6 - fantastic range (audio) - #7 - up to 24 hours of battery life I've found myself in a bit of a pickle - I don't want to listen to anything with it's built-in speak anymore - if I can pair these with a device, I do it! My TV, my phone, my computer, my gaming console, my projector. They are just that good sounding, and being as light as they are, you forget they are on your head and start to shut out all outside distractions. Charging is done via USB-C this time around , a welcome change to make them just that more modern, and the surround sound on them is breathtaking! Corsair - keep it up - you continue to impress and continue to be my go-to brand for peripherals !

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.

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.

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.
