Corsair - Virtuoso RGB Wireless (Carbon/White/Pearl)

Corsair HS80 max or virtuoso is my rec Don't get the pulse it has poor build quality and underwhelming battery life

I bought a corsair virtuoso

Never buy a Razer headset. I have the Corsair Virtuoso and it’s been great for me. Wireless but an insane battery life, really good, detachable microphone. Fairly comfortable but not the most, sometimes have to adjust the ear pads.

I use the Corsair Virtuoso, you can unplug the mic and also connect it to WiFi and Bluetooth at the same time. Super recommend, although there are more pricey

+1 for the Virtuoso. It's a solid headset, great mic and has the benefit of using both wired and wireless channels simultaneously.

OW subreddit isn’t the best resource for this, YouTube and review sites are. I think, imo, $200 is a better budget for a high end headset, and even then you can get something that’s quality between $100-$200. My own anecdotal experience, my Corsair Virtuoso have been solid for the last 4 years. My brother recently got Astro A30s and he likes them but he paid the premium for them for their ability to easily switch between console and PC. Both headsets go on sale often, as they have been out for a while now, so I wouldn’t buy either at full price. HyperX, also, has some good headsets but I’d look at reviews of the specific headset you’re interested in.

The best pair that worked for me (on Xbox series X) was the official Xbox ones. https://www.xbox.com/en-GB/accessories/headsets/xbox-wireless-headset I already had the Razer Kraken and Corsair Virtuoso, and had issues with both, but the official Xbox wireless headset has been great.

Same headset I normally use on my PC, not a fan of most VR speakers that hover over your ear as other people may be able to hear and I got thin walls. I would earbuds instead, but I’m not a fan of earbud mics and I don’t like the mic that’s built into my vr headset. So I just use my normal gaming headset. Corsair virtuoso wireless is the one I use.

iCue constantly explodes, requiring a reinstall to fix, and the settings you put on the headset REQUIRE iCue to reapply every time the headset connects. I have the Virtuoso, and I HATE the green "not muted" light, and I hate the lack of control over which voice prompts they use. The cups degraded to shreds in under 2 years, the plastic holding one cup broke from an accidental drop onto the desk. The volume wheel has a mind of its own, can adjust system volume randomly, and may or may not skyrocket to 0 or 100% on its own. Needless to say, I have regrets, hence why I'm on this forum looking for alternatives

I should clarify, \*SOME\* options revert to factory. There are two ways for me to turn off the logo lighting, turning the color to black, and setting the brightness to zero. If I set it to black, it will restore its color when not running iCue, if I set brightness to zero, it holds that setting. The same cannot be said of the "enable green light while active" setting. There is seemingly no way to turn that green light off without having iCue running.

I was told to go back to Corsair Virtuoso headset because Maxwell mic sucked so bad. I disagree. And if I have to spend MORE money on a pricey headset to make it work well, then it has shit value

These are great, but with the right EQ settings, the Corsair Virtuoso easily outclasses them. Of course, that comes at a steep premium.
