Review on ๐ŸŽง Corsair HS70 Pro Wireless Gaming Headset: 7.1 Surround Sound Headphones for PC, MacOS, PS5, PS4 - Discord Certified - Carbon by Eric Wright

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible, terrible, expensive!

I bought this headset to replace my broken Logitech G930 headset. Bad choose! Corsair literally doesn't endorse this headset and the forums are full of people complaining about how bad this headset really is. When you first buy this wireless headset, you might not notice or care how it sounds, but it's amazing. The soundstage is amazing and even mute in some cases. Custom EQ settings are a loose association, they don't really do anything. 7.1 surround sound is a joke. If you play FPS games, avoid them at all costs. There are practically no steps. My year-old Logitech headset outperformed the HS70 in sound quality and microphone quality. There is a constant hissing noise (with and without the microphone on). If you have microphone playback turned on, the hiss will be even louder. Microphone sound is worse than most $40 wired headsets. The battery life is amazing. After about 30 minutes of use I was at 78%. Needless to say I sent them back. I played with my friend's Logitech G933 Artemis headset and will take it when I get my money back. I'm sorry that my review doesn't reflect an overwhelmingly positive view of this headset. Corsair needs to assemble. I have several of their other products and have had no problems. This headset must have been blackmail because that's no excuse for poor quality.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Very expensive
