I've been buying my gamer kids a different brand of headset and I always had to trade them in on the protection plan for various problems. My son who uses a PC wanted to try this brand and he says it's much better and sounds like he's in a movie theatre. They look nicer too.
We'll see how they hold up, but I don't really care because I absolutely opted for the protection plan again. Never buy your kids a gaming headset without one.

Over all a solid head set. Comfortable, no one complains about sound on my end, wire is plenty long for me at my desk. Cons: did not work plug and play out of the box without some trouble shooting. I also really miss my turtle beach from the Xbox with the dual volume controls for voice and master volume.
Over all still a solid choice and at a great price. Using with windows 11.

Promising, But Ultimately Returned

I recently got my hands on the CORSAIR HS65 SURROUND Wired Gaming Headset (model number CA-9011270-NA), and it's time to share my thoughts.
What I liked:
* The microphone on this headset is nothing short of excellent. Crystal-clear communication with my gaming buddies was never an issue.
* The 7.1 virtual surround sound was truly immersive, enhancing my gaming experience in ways I hadn't imagined.
* Comfort was a significant highlight. The headset felt like a pillow on my head during extended gaming sessions.
What I didn't like:
* Unfortunately, the headset falls short when it comes to noise isolation. It struggles to block out external sounds, which can be distracting during gameplay.
* The ear pads, while comfortable, don't fully seal, which impacts both sound quality and isolation.
* The SoundID feature left me underwhelmed. It felt more like a gimmick than a genuinely useful addition.
* The sound profile is somewhat polarizing. It might not suit all tastes, making it a bit of a hit or miss.
In the end, I did end up returning the CORSAIR HS65 SURROUND Gaming Headset due to these issues. It's a shame because it had some fantastic features, but the downsides, especially the poor isolation and ear pad sealing, made it a less-than-ideal choice for my gaming needs. If these issues are addressed in future iterations, it could be a winner. For now, it's a promising but ultimately returned purchase.

Really good budget headphones. This is much better than a $200-300 pair of headphones in my opinion because, for 1) I can't tell a difference, and 2) my kids end up breaking them and needing to replace them regularly. So I always go for the best cheap headphones I can find.

I primarily use it with my xbox series X for 2-3 hour sessions and they sit well, comfortable, breathable. Sound quality is great, the mic is great, clear, from what ive been told. The digital surround sound when plugged into a PC is kind of glitchy from time to time. Depends on what you use it on, but being able to modify the EQ using ICUE is very nice. Overall. Fantastic headset for the price m.

These have to be the best gaming headset I have had, and I have had a few in the past 7 to 8 years. They are light fitting and comfortable on the ears, the sound is crisp, and the volume was only halfway. Really glad I have these for my Play Station 5.

Solid gaming headphones. Great sound and very comfortable! You need to download the iCue app when you first use them. This allows you to personalize the sound to your tastes. The program is user friendly. You will also turn on sidetone at this time which will let you hear your voice a little so you don’t yell into the mic.

I recently replaced my Astro A10s to get these and the sound quality is amazing. I decided against the HyperX Clouds for these because of sound quality. Super easy to set up (straight forward really), and the customizations is very user friendly. Very comfortable around my ears, especially since I wear glasses. The ear pads are very comfortable for long gaming sessions.

We got this to replace a cheap gaming headset that was literally falling apart. My son says that this is very comfortable to wear for long periods of gaming and that the audio quality is very good. Highly recommended!

Needed one for work for Microsoft Teams and this has clear and loud volume which I need as I am getting older. Love how they fit comfortably as well with a big area to cover the full ear to block out other noise around me. The only complaint would be the microphone arm is a little rigid and need to be careful setting them down after using. I love them. There were others a lot more money that were good but this was the best fit.

These headsets are great for work, Teams meetings, zoom, etc.,
Here’s a few details: you can hear extremely clear, connecting can be w/a provided cable, (this is great for government that demands connecting without Bluetooth); and lastly, the length of the cable is good for you to sit the laptop/computer and sit back! Great product!!

Sound quality is absolutely amazing only downfall is I think the cord should be about 6 inches longer. I didn't realize I bought a corded headset till I got home, my fault for not looking good enough but amazing quality all the way around

This headset is fantastic for the price point it is at. I use this when I travel and it has held up great. No signs of wear. The mic quality is crystal clear.
This is a great temporary or travel headset. It would be a good choice for a teen.
I can wear it for about an hour before feeling any ear fatigue
