CORSAIR HS70 PRO WIRELESS Gaming Headset – 7.1 Surround Sound – Detachable Uni-Directional Microphone – Up to 40ft Range – iCUE Compatible – PC, Mac, PS5, PS4 – Carbon

These headphones are really good when using them with PS5. They are plug and play, comfortable and the sound is rich and most importantly for games, directional.There was no setup required, just the advice for battery care that the headphones are fully charged before the first use. The quality of the headphones feels really good and material selection is excellent for the price point.Audio quality is very good, with no distortion at high volumes and plenty of volume range for all applications. The microphone attachment is good but the small rubber insert for blanking the microphone port when not in use is slightly unnecessary and I would think most people will lose it at some point. Microphone quality is good and easy to adjust the boom accordingly. The mute button is useful but when using with the PS5 it's much easier to use the controller mute button instead. Volume is controlled with a wheel on the left side and this is quite easy to knock when taking the headphones on and off. This doesn't really affect anything though because it's very easy to adjust once on and the wheel travel gives plenty of volume options to choose from. With these headphones on it is very hard to hear ambient noise and there doesn't seem to be any microphone feedback so it can be quite easy to start shouting down the microphone!Battery life is exceptional and charging from the front usb port of the PS5 takes a couple of hours. A small amount of charge goes a long way if the battery ever gets low whilst in use. My only real criticism of these headphones is that so far I have not found a way to see the battery percentage - the only warning is a red light and intrusive beeping when it needs recharging. Once you hear the beeping there isn't much battery life left in them.Overall these are great headphones and for the price (I found them on sale for £50) they are brilliant value for money, offering premium feel and quality for entry level pricing. Far more expensive headphones don't go much further in terms of quality and function.

so ive had these headphones for around a year and these are the things i love and hate the most about them:PROS:amazing sound, the 50mm drivers really make these headphones sound like expensive high end headphones, really nice bass, lows and highscomfort, i forget these things are on my head they are really comfortable, the cups fit my ears really well and i can wear them for 12+ hours with no achesthere are many other things i could add but ill go on about some of the things i dislike the most about these headphonesCONS:battery life, these headphones are on the lower end of battery life, i get around 12-16hours of usage before they reach low batterycorsair software, this is my biggest problem with the headphones, the ICUE software these headphones rely on is SUPER bad, the amount of times ive had to uninstall and reinstall the ICUE software just to get them to connect is ridiculous, the software is super slow toooverall i feel like these are the BEST wireless headphones you can get for less than £100ive tested many other competitors but if you like BASS and the best sound quality i would recommend these!

Sound quality is ok. Nice, sharp base, but higher frequencies are not very pronounced. It's a headset, not a hi-fi piece of audio equipment. These can be very loud, so be careful with the volume wheel. There's also a persistent low level hiss when these are on, but I don't think it gets too annoying.Microphone feels well made, but overall very quiet. I've had to find some software to boost the input over 100% to get it it to acceptable levels. Sound quality is fine, but I can't speak about noise cancellation without any reference points.The fit is fairly comfortable for someone with large head and ears, but I've got to loosen the adjustable bits to the max. I think most headphones I've used actually had another step or two to go, so be careful. Clamping pressure is above average, but not uncomfortable. They're also not very heavy, so shaking them off in the heat of battle shouldn't be an issue.On big design problem is the microphone mute button. There's no indication of whether microphone is on or off, no tactile feedback at all. When you press it, you find out the new state of the microphone via audio feedback. By default, it's a series of two slightly different beeps in one order for On and the opposite order for Off. I still don't have a good grasp of which is which. On Windows with iCUE software installed you get a voice telling you Mic On/Mic Off, which is easier to understand, but if you turn the software off, the microphone is permanently on and the button on the headset doesn't do anything. I think this really needs to be addressed in a firmware update.Had a good experience running these with Linux. Both the headset and microphone instantly recognized, but of course there is not support for iCUE. This means you might not be able to switch between Stereo and 7.1 Surround modes, but I personally find the Surround modes in headsets to be nothing more than a gimmick.

First time I've purchased wireless headphones, as a gamer. These have awesome sound quality, very nice bass (important for me), and great soundscaping for FPS games like Battlefield, COD, etc. The battery life is great, too, I only have to charge these for ~1 hour every 2-3 days, it's not a big inconvenience at all. The microphone is good too, for a headset mic. I use it for work and no one has complained so far - you're not going to get the best sound quality out of it, but for a headset and the fact that it's wireless, it's decent. Build quality is also great, can't fault it. They're comfortable, even for me as a glasses wearer, and feel very sturdy.
