Customer Ratings & Reviews

Im a mom of an “angry gamer”, so I call him. He’s gone through many headsets at this price point where the issue is not the headset itself but him from his anger and misuse of the product. Like any terrible mom, I just go get another one and hope he doesn’t take his frustration out on this one. I’m well aware that I am the problem and the lack of punishment and reward of a new item is not the best parenting practice. I’m just trying to paint a picture for others who experience what I’m dealing with. From talking to some adult gaming friends they advise me to get a quality product at a higher price point for the simple fact as yes he will break this one too but it should still last longer, be more durable and create less frustration then a cheeper product. I read multiple reviews and decided on this Corsair headset because of the great mic and sound reviews. It was a little on sale and the same cost as the previous other brands my son has had. We went to pick it up at my local Best Buy and he complained the whole way. He hadn’t heard of this brand, worried it would suck, and mad I just didn’t get the Razor or Turtle brand. We picked it up and he opens it in the car. He says, “Oh you might be ok mom, this looks really nice.” (The patients I only possess for him is unreal.) He starts naming all the cool stuff it does or has and I get that champion mom feeling. We get home and he goes to his room and comes out with it on and says exactly this, “ OMG it works all the way over here. My other headsets didn’t work this far away. The mic is amazing and the sound is really good, like too good.” All with the biggest happiest smile on his face. So, I write this to the people who want to buy a product like this that they know little about and will never use themselves but hope to please the person they are buying it for. Just for background, my son plays on a high end gaming PC designed by a friend of ours and is an avid gamer. He has had this headset for over a month, uses it most days and still loves it.

There's a lot of good features about this headset and some frustrating ones. Pro's Sound was great, battery life was amazing, came with a long charging cord that enable you to charge while wearing if needed(unlike other brands). You can walk out of the room and the headset would stay connected. Overall construction looked strong and metal hinges. Cons The microphone has a bright circular LED that shines red off the inside of glasses when not in use( even tried to shut it off in ICUE software). The inner stitching on the ear cushions was painful to the ear cartilage after a couple hours. the ear pain was too much that no matter how much I liked it I couldn't wear it for long enough sessions without having to take it on and off over and over each day. I really liked all the other stuff about the headset I even searched about buying aftermarket ear cushions however nothing specifically made yet for this headset. I hope Corsair addresses being able to turn the mic light off for the sake of people with glasses. The cushions well put your finger inside the cushion and lightly pull to wear it might reach resting on a bigger ear. That's the spot it becomes extremely uncomfortable and why I sadly returned them.

Comfortable for long-term usage and doesn't feel heavy. The sound quality is good I would say but don't expect some huge bass from this

The headphones have been great and they sound good. The mic is clear and we’ll made by the brand Corsair. They are comfortable, not too heavy and they have a good range of distance you can walk without a connection issue.

Easily the most comfortable headphones I've ever used. The adjustable band made the headphones significantly more comfortable than they were right out of the box, make sure you take a moment to do this and make sure it fits properly, for the best experience. Sound is great. Simple to use. Feel high quality. 10/10 favorite pair of headphones in years. I put these on each time I went into a Best Buy for like 6-8 months before buying them, because i'm kind of picky, I shouldn't have waited so long to pick them up.

One year Review- Comfortable, Great sound quality, Battery last a long time off a full charge. I would definitely recommend

Upgraded from a wired Hyper X to this. The difference is night and day. It did take a week or so to adjust the strap to a point to feel right. After that timeframe it's felt like a cloud. Barely any weight in comparison. The mic is phenominal for being on a headset! Sound quality is very good as well, specifically with 3D sound. Would recommend to anyone playing games on PS5 or PC!

Great sound, comfortable, and easy to setup. Only complaint is the short range.

Theyre comfy, but the battery life isnt that great in comparison to my steelseries arctis nova 7’s. Sound is great though, the mic is surprisingly good too.

Works as intended. Sounds is good and good battery life

My fav headset so far and its the cheapest one ive bought, its so much lighter than the high end ones, i get u get what you pay for but ever game all day and night and you notice the bulky headsets, battery life is fantastic but this charges with ease and the cable is out of the way, im not fan of anything wireless but these are definitely my fav daily use cans.

It's pretty good. The light on the mic arm stopped working after a couple of months, and the Bluetooth range is very low (about 10 feet) despite sounding worse than my Airpod Pro 2nd gens [which have triple its receiver range]. It's very comfortable to wear and feels premium when handled. Given the opportunity, however, I would not choose this particular product and won't get it again. Corsair support is pretty good.

By far, these have been the best "Gaming" headphones I have ever had. And they sound much better with Dolby Atmos activated, the immersion they achieve is magnificent. The downside is the material; for some reason, they are getting damaged and experiencing some strange issues.

The Corsair HS80 is an overall excellent choice in this price range for headsets, the build quality is solid as well as having very good sound fresh out of the box, with customizable EQ settings through their software. It is also worth noting the HS80 has easily one of the best microphones on a gaming headset within this price range and even competes or surpasses some more expensive options. Would highly recommend at regular MSRP and especially if it is on sale or if you’re able to price match.

These are SICK. The mic quality is great, the audio quality is great, the battery life is long, and the comfort is great. Great BUY!

Very comfortable, good audio quality, and pretty low latency. Battery is good, but I wish it was a little bit longer. Definitely recommend.

Overall it is a good headset, The range is not what it says. But its not terrible either. Sound Quality is good. Comfort is decent.

Love White gaming gear. High quality sound. Great VoIP with no background noise. Good on the ears. Rechargeable - wire free use. Very dependable.

Most negative reviews I read for this were either about the range, battery, or sound quality. I had my reservations, but decided to take advantage of the sale and got them. I'm not sure why some people's range isn't that great, but mine is relatively good (not the advertised distance). As for the battery, you don't need to have the mic on 100% of the time or the volume at 100. These things are loud, and they can output really clear sound as long as you're not an audio snob. The icue software makes all the difference when it comes to getting the experience you want out of the set. The different sliders enhance whichever end of the sound profile you need.

I use this headset for GoToMeeting meetings. Everyone sounds clear and everyone says that I sound clear. The noise cancellation is good. I have a 3 year old that gets filtered out unless she is sitting on my lap talking or singing. The battery life is good. My downside is that the padding is firm and not as plush as I would like and other headsets are lighter but those did not have a good battery or as clear like the Razor. Overall a good headset and would stick with Corsair. I have not tried any gaming on it to see how the Atmos works.
