    Normal product, but wanted more for the money.

    The ears are really well assembled, they hold a charge with a bang (I had enough for an average of 14 hours), they catch all over my small apartment, including behind the wall. I was also very pleased with the design: laconic, nothing superfluous (although the corners of the logo on the ears themselves caught and rustled on the pillowcase, but these are trifles.)) The sound quality is decent: I took it for games, movies and discord. And in these respects, the ears lived up to expectations. But,

    Pros
    • -Build quality - The ratio of price and declared characteristics, largely justified -Design
    Cons
    • -Smell - Constant hiss -Uncomfortable fit - The most simple microphone

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

    During the year of operation, there were no problems, the battery holds an excellent charge, leather deputy. did not rub on the ear pads and did not peel off. I plugged in the complete transmitter, installed the software and everything is ok. The sound is good for this kind of headphones. The design is identical to hs 50, 60, except for the built-in battery and weight. In terms of autonomy, of course, 16 hours is not enough. The charge is shown exactly as a percentage in the software + voice…

    Pros
    • 1- The sound is good for wireless gaming headphones. 2- Normal microphone. 3- Excellent setup software. 4- Universal - can be connected to both a PC and a console, a smartphone. 5- Adequate autonomy without recharging. 6- Support windows spatial sound.
    Cons
    • 1- I would like more autonomy + some cover in the kit. 2- I did not like the sound of 7.1 if it was turned on in the software. 3- We go into the sofa and turn off the virtual aunt and the standby mode, otherwise it spoils everything

    I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

    I replaced my HyperX Cloud Core headphones, which are already classics for me, but it's time for them to retire. When I bought the HS70, it seemed to me that I did not part with the clouds at all, the difference is that the ubiquitous wires do not interfere, otherwise they completely resemble a headset from HyperX. Headphones can function while the battery is charging and charge quickly enough. However, after a year of use, the charging port quickly wore out and the warning LED went out…

    Pros
    • 1) High-quality assembly (design) 2) Good sound and microphone (for communication in games, the microphone will go) 3) Classic style 4) Detachable microphone 5) 8 - 10 hours of active play on a single charge (14 with normal use) 6) Functions while charging 7) Voice announcement (in English) 8) Works stably at a distance of 10 meters
    Cons
    • 1) The charging port is very worn out after a year 2) After a year, the battery indicator failed

    I expected mediocre quality, but it was a pleasant surprise.

    Regarding white noise, I tried all the methods that I found on the forums (For the corsair is silent) troubleshooting and nothing . 1. Reinstalled firewood 2. Tried different USB ports 3. The settings in the software itself also did not bear fruit. I don’t know how the corsairs could overlook this problem. Absolutely moronic mistake that buzzes a brown note in your ears. Bottom line, three stars. Removed two for noise and crooked software. I’ll probably leave my ears anyway, because you can’t…

    Pros
    • -Excellent assembly (expensive), perhaps the most pleasant thing about these headphones. -Price tag, snatched at 4Frag for 5900. For this price, I think you can’t find better headphones, namely wireless ones. - The sound is very pleasant, from the side of the layman in musical terms. Regarding the behavior in games - amazing, if everything is set up correctly, it will not be difficult for you to hear your opponent sneezing with gravy around which corner. I repeat once again - the sound is excellent, you don’t have to worry about it (Especially after HyperX Cloud)
    Cons
    • - The software is rather crooked (sometimes it refuses to write how many percent of the charge is left and the aunt who screams in her ears that the headset has gone into sleep mode), and another 1.5 giga weighs - Perhaps the most controversial moment is the white noise in these headphones. I don’t know how it is with others, but it’s quite audible and the volume slider does not affect its level in any way. For me, this is a pretty big downside. - Many more note a bad microphone, but I personally feel lilac how others hear me in teamspeak and discord.

    To nitpick, it should be noted that charging via Micro-USB in 2022 looks like bad form. Not for this, I diligently moved all year to Type-C, so that in the headphones then again return to the old and uncomfortable standard. Otherwise, more than a decent product. For Zoom conversations and stuffy Discord hacks, it's just fine. I recommend for adherents of the wireless world. 😁

    Pros
    • • Excellent, serious appearance; • Quality sound; • Without unnecessary illumination; • Without cheating, they keep charging for about 16 hours; • Not very heavy; • Do not squeeze the head (purely subjective, it may not suit someone); • Adjustable ear cushion height. As someone who previously owned a Siberia V2 from Steelseries, I was struck by the fact that the headphones, it turns out, may not boom when it comes to playing songs with a dominant low-frequency range.
    Cons
    • • Microphone Frankly upset the microphone. The voice sounds too metallic, lacks the velvet of low frequencies - it feels like only mids and highs are captured by the microphone. • Difficult to set up for an inexperienced user During the first launch, I found that there is a clearly noticeable hiss in the headphones. I solved the problem by turning off the sidetone in the proprietary iCue utility, moving the radio receiver a little further away from the PC using a USB extension cable lying nearby, and turning on Windows spatial sound (no matter how strange it may sound). As a result, the hissing completely disappeared, sometimes a squeak slips if the phone is nearby, but for radio headsets this is normal for obvious reasons (try to bring the phone to any speaker during a call and you will understand what I'm talking about).

    Feedback on the PRO version, if only because, probably, on almost all the links in the stores it was PRO, and the PRO model is not for sale in the market. I use two months. Pros: Acceptable price. Good quality, sound, microphone is normal, they hear me well. The software is easy to set up. Different cons: I did not use them for 16 hours in a row, but the autonomy is lower than stated according to general sensations. I don't see it as a problem for myself, but maybe it matters to someone. I…

    Good product, good quality, not bad.

    It may be useful for someone - to make it more convenient to use the charging cable, you can purchase a cable with a magnetic connector. And the whole nest will be more convenient to connect.

    Pros
    • Normal sound for the price. They sit well on the head. Appearance.
    Cons
    • It is because of this shortcoming that I decided to leave a review - TIRED! Listen to these beeps, the battery is above 70% charged, everything is ok, but for some reason they start to squeak, first 5 beeps, then 2 and rushed . after a period of time again 2 signals, etc. . What I just didn’t try. . and I changed the firmware and reinstalled the software, I can’t understand the reason for the beeps. Moreover, the signals are irregular. They may or may not be. I understand the headphones signal a low battery, but when the battery is charged, they still beep! Maybe someone knows how to solve this problem? Is it possible to disable these signals altogether? Wrote in those Corsair support, they couldn’t really answer anything there, they wrote that they should change it under warranty there, etc. I don't want to bother with this guarantee, so with the headphones everything is ok. Well, "fixed ears", uncomfortable when they are on the neck.

    If you have noise in your headphones, then check the settings of the Corsair program, the ability to listen to your own voice is enabled by default, as in audio recording studios. Also, before buying, it is better to find an opportunity to check the headphones in silence, because many wireless 2.4 models of all manufacturers can come across an unpleasant high-frequency squeak (I had it in Asus Rog Strix Wireless)

    Pros
    • I have been using headphones for about a month. I bought it because I was very attracted by the appearance and good assembly. Detachable microphone, windscreen included. I really liked the sound: the bass in active battles feels like you are in a movie theater. Mids and highs are great! (possibly due to the fact that the laptop has Nahimic audio technology) Here is the most accurate 7.1 sound among all headphones. I watched the reviews, they had a bad microphone, but it sounds great to me, I don’t know why. They sit on the head, of course, not as comfortable as the Razer series of headphones, but there is no discomfort. The USB receiver signal is amazing. About 15 hours of work, I like it.
    Cons
    • There is no wired connection option. Independent volume control like on an old radio. The cap for the microphone jack can be easily lost. The Corsair iCue program loads the system. Exe process, hence the higher power consumption, although there are no lags. For stationary systems it will be imperceptible. But you can simply install nothing and safely use the headphones without a program.

    I'm satisfied with it, there are only some small flaws.

    They turned out to be not very comfortable at the beginning, I thought to return them. Strongly pressed under the ear. There was severe discomfort within an hour. But after a week I got used to it. I took it for 7190. I think that it is a little expensive, but in general I was satisfied with the purchase. The sound in my opinion is excellent, but these are my first closed headphones.

    Pros
    • Works on both PC and PS4. They turn on as soon as you insert the transmitter. Good quality and long USB cable included. Hold a charge for a long time. I have enough for two days of 8 hours. Made outwardly very well and reliably.
    Cons
    • Not a great range. You go three meters away - interruptions. Doesn't pick up in the next room. I was pressed for the first couple of days, but I got used to it in a week. The app is slow.

    Average product, you can do better.

    In general, not a bad device, but for the kind of money that the manufacturer asks, you can find several much more successful models from German manufacturers, which I eventually did. Pros below: In the manufacture were used very high quality materials. Headphones give the impression of reliable and pleasant to look at. The sound quality is also excellent, you can listen to music and play games without any problems. With its cons. Low quality software. In general, it is not critical, but there…

    The product is completely satisfied, performs its functions.

    In general, good headphones, if you don’t know what to give a friend, and he has a headset for 700r, then these headphones are perfect. The headphones made a good impression of themselves, without a WOW!-effect, but a very solid headset, I took it in a store for 6k. - If so, I will add a review. Got pros: The biggest plus is its wireless connection. - look, have a beautiful design - assembly, assembled just fine, nothing creaks and nothing is loose - the sound quality is very good, it's nice…

    A really necessary purchase, glad I found this product.

    The first "expensive" headphones that I decided to purchase and immediately try the wireless option. The main tasks are music (not for an audiophile) and shooters once or twice a week. I also wanted the Corsair headset, and was ready to put up with possible shortcomings (which, apart from marriage, have not yet been discovered). From the point of view of sound, it copes well with its tasks, with a slight twist of the equalizer, it does perfectly well. Over the year, a little (literally in 2…

    Pros
    • 1. Very comfortable, with good sound insulation. The head does not get tired even after a day. 2. Removable microphone, which is worn only when needed, and does not interfere with the rest of the time. 3. Although they look like "game" ones, they are quite strict, it's not a shame to bring such ears as working ears, for example, to the office. 4. Adjusting the position of the bowl for almost any head size, perhaps 8-12 year old gamers with a small head will be dissatisfied. 5. Wireless sound. After inexpensive BT ears, through a BT adapter, with interference, and signal delay, here the signal quality and the absence of delays are simply the height of bliss. 6. At the beginning, the battery charge was enough for almost the whole day, it was quite possible to charge it once a day, and use it until the next morning. I had to charge the maximum in the morning and in the evening, despite the fact that I work for a PC for 10-12 hours, and sometimes I want to play even in the evening.
    Cons
    • 1. The main jamb, a year later, the battery stopped charging. Initially, it was charged at 92-95-98%%, and kept quite adequately, after 10 months, charging began to reach only up to 70-80%%, and the battery life fell accordingly. At some point, the battery stopped taking a charge at all, so at the moment I passed these ears under warranty. 2. More situational, but still. As it turned out, wireless is not as convenient as we would like, and in the case of a PC, it does not pay off so much. I did not find any particularly great advantages associated with the fact that the headphones are wireless. This is best shown if you play the game, lounging in a chair, at a distance of a couple of meters from the monitor, but even so, if they just had a long wire, there would not be much difference. 3. In the conditions of an ordinary apartment in a panel high-rise building, the signal from the transmitter is already lost at a distance of 4-5m, if you just go behind the wall, so you don’t really have to walk around the house in them. 4. In the heat, if you shave baldly, it is somewhat uncomfortable to sit in these headphones for a long time, the scalp sweats at the point where the headband and ear pads touch. Solved by air conditioning in the room.

    Think carefully before buying this product.

    I did not expect such a trick. I liked everything in the headset, but there was an incident. The headset just died. In the next game, the sound began to disappear at first, for a couple of seconds, and then it disappeared forever. Any resets and so on no longer revive her. When turned on, the system sounds of "squeaking" on / off are heard. The headset is even defined in ICUE, but it doesn't go beyond that. Tried on different systems. At what it is not clear what the trouble is, in the headset…

    Pros
    • I have been using devices from this manufacturer for a long time, starting from the case, RAM, storage . ending with peripherals. The headset is very well built Sits comfortably Convenient for Ease of connection Appearance
    Cons
    • A bit heavy Incomprehensible display of the headset charge. I would like backlight Reliability Something with sound. NO SUPPORT.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

    Pros: Good sound and great build. As they say in paid reviews, made for centuries. They sit comfortably with no complaints. Cons: Disgusting microphone, my friend can hear himself. There is also a small squeak if you turn off the sound, but you hardly notice it.

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    The product did not disappoint, the quality pleases.

    In principle, if you forget about the missing (but declared) 7.1 and this piece of plastic, which for some reason the corsair calls a microphone, and use them exactly as wireless headphones, they are excellent. The only thing is that the bottom is not enough for my taste, but this is a nitpick. For the "microphone" I reduce the unit, otherwise - excellent headphones.

    Pros
    • Bought, brought, turned on, working. They sing with their own money. The software has charge monitoring and an equalizer, which, surprisingly, almost does not disfigure the sound. Sane autonomy for 6k, completely never could discharge. The delay is almost inaudible, unlike bluetooth ears. A decent range: you can go to get some air on the balcony, they don’t croak through two walls.
    Cons
    • mode 7.1. I don't know what it is, but not 7.1. When turned on, it not only turns the sound into mush, but it also robs. If you want 7.1, these ears can't get into it. Microphone. It is disgusting: there is no top, no bottom, there is only a middle that cuts the ears, 5 kilohertz wide (not to be unfounded, the whole depth of my disappointment is on the screen). Seriously, guys, this is not even a microphone with Ali for 100, this is just a misunderstanding, it is not clear how it got into the box with the ears.
