Good product for a fair price
This headset was a recommendation by a friend, it has clear sounds, sounds can be loud if you want, clear communication and a long battery life 12+hrs ez , comfortable, got the warranty better to be safe, over all it was a great recommendation and a great buy for a fair price.

Good for Gaming and Conference
I usually use this for gaming, but I use it whenever I have a conference. The quality of the mic is very good (clear and crisp). It does not have a noise-cancelling function. If you gear up the mic, it automatically mutes all the sound, which is very convenient. Also, you can control the volume with a scroll on the left side of the headphone.

Microphone’s a bit noisy, but it’s still better than most other options
A previous version of this review complained that headphone audio was bleeding through to the microphone. I have now isolated the cause of that, and it’s my motherboard sound inputs. I guess my motherboard must not isolate sound input and output very well. That’s a problem with my hardware, not the Corsair headset. It was solved by buying a USB soundcard adapter.Judging the headset on its own merits, I find it to be quite good. It’s a little tight on the head, but the earcups are soft enough that it’s not super uncomfortable. However, they are firm enough that people with sensitivity issues might not like how much they squeeze.I’m not a crazy audiophile, but I do care about good quality headphones, and I’ve definitely thrown my fair share of bad headphones in the trash over my life. The Corsair headphones sound pretty good to me. Decent range, and pretty alright bass. Don’t know how I feel about the headphones themselves having a dedicated volume knob; it sounds fine now, but knobs like that always start to crackle as they get old. Would have preferred digital buttons.Microphone quality is where I get picky. I have shopped around because even on $200+ Sennheiser headsets, the microphone input is always just passable, sounding like an old telephone. All the demos I listened to with the Corsair HS55 made the microphone sound really good. In practice, it’s… fine. It has much better range than most headset mics, giving it better clarity than the “old telephone” effect you get from most headsets.But it’s also pretty noisy. There’s a constant hiss at all times coming through this mic. The good news is that most voice chat programs have noise filters that will take care of things pretty well. On Discord and in livestreams I’ve done, there is effectively no hiss at all; you just have to configure your settings correctly. Sometimes it might leave you sounding a little muffled, but it still sounds miles better than the “old telephone” effect.In short, this is one of the best headsets I’ve ever used.

DO NOT PURCHASE
I purchased two of these. One for myself and one for my boyfriend. His only lasted two weeks. They are made of very cheap plastic and the ear piece broke right off during light use. Both of ours have had recurring mic issues related to compatibility issues with Windows 11. The mic randomly gets super boosted and activates even when there is no speaking going on. It is extremely loud and painful to anyone listening to the conversation. We found two ways of resolving this. One was to download their update platform and force an update even if there is none. This took a lot of time and only resolves the issue for a few hours. The other solution was to simply unplug the USB and plug it back in, but this only ever worked half the time and also only resolved the issue for a few hours.THIS THING IS NOT WORTH THE MONEY! Technical issues aside, the sound quality is not that great. I ended up replacing his with a cheap $30 headset that works far better and has no issues whatsoever. Steer clear of this abomination!

Amazing Audio – Compacting Comfort
A couple years ago i bought the Corsair HS70 which lasted me about a year. And then bought the Sennheiser EPOS GSP 302 headset which has an amazing microphone.Anyways, about this headset. The headset has really really good audio. Amazing bass (im a bass head) and really clear highs. And what i really appreciate is the lack of muddy mids. Deep bass and clear treble is good, but no muddy mids is even better. Clearity should be ehat you’re after and these headphones check that box.However… the comfort of this headset is quite unpleasing. My previous HS70 LE headset was amazingly comfortable but these HS50 Pros aren’t exactly comfortable. They sit on your head well which is one thing but they clamp quite hard on your head. Along with that is the somewhat rough headband. I start to recieve nausea and a mild headache from the earpads and headband so i did return these. But for a sub 14year old i would definitely recommend.

Been using a Logitech headset for years but they kept having shorts. Went on a limb and bought from the Amazon Warehouse Deal. Got a great price and they werenât even used.Lightweight and great audio quality! I havenât had any issues like with my other headset

Yay! Just what I ordered and in great working order, great comfort and sound. These headphones are great value

I don’t think you can beat the price and quality of these headphones. I am using them as I am writing this review. They are comfortable and the sound is great. It is better to connect them directly through the bluetooth of your phone or computer.Great product!
