Awesome headset
Growing up I was always a fan of turtle beaches, until their quality became crap. Spent 300$ on elite pro 2’s, 2 of them for them both to break the same exact way plastic broke where the ear meets the band. Even had a pair of tritons back in the day for like 350. This headset even at full price is awesome. Battery life is awesome. They feel great even for long sessions. Sound awesome with a bunch of customization settings. Sound level and quality is way above others had the hs80’s for the last few years and now have the max version for 3x the battery and Bluetooth. (pc only experience)

Super recommended article
They are very comfortable and super easy to configure with multiple devices, including a MacBook. 100% recommended and I would buy them again.

Superb build quality
The HS80 max headset’s quality, in terms of the material used, feels like the premium deserving for its higher end pricing. I had reservations for the thin hinge that connects the speakers to the headband, but my worries quickly evaporated when I tested them by twisting it around, and bending it a bit. They’re made of a hard plastic I couldn’t tell you the name of but, I wouldn’t be worried to drop them and have it break.The microphone is alright for a gaming headset, your bros on discord and in games will hear you just fine, but nothing spectacular, and definitely not broadcast quality. Simply, they get the job done. I appreciate the headset’s long battery life, 65 hours+ based on settings, and a quick recharge of 1.5 hours through USB-C. The main reason I got this headset was because of its long battery life, though, it doesn’t come close to the Hyper X Cloud III’s 300 hour battery life.This leads me to the point why I’d choose the HS80 over something like the Hyper X Cloud III’s, personalization. The headset is can easily integrate to the iCUE Corsair Ecosystem, which is nice since I own many other corsair products, keeping my set up a similar theme. Through the iCUE software, you can select a personalized audio setup, that fits your hearing ranges. Furthermore, it can also control the RGB lights on headset, giving you a choice of going with the gaming aesthetic, with magical unicorn rainbow farts, or a more stealth approach.The headset also comes with the Dolby Atmos surround sound, taking advantage of the advance drivers in the headset, it provides an excellent audio experience, enhancing everything from gaming to movies.There are some downsides to the headset, I find the velcro strap adjustment system to the headset suspension band to be annoying to get right, compared to a traditional adjustment system. Furthermore, I’m worried about the longevity of the velcros in the strap from constant readjustments. The stock earmuffs uncomfortable, and puts pressure on my larger sized ears. I plan to replace them with a third party ear muffs to see if they will fix the comfortability issue. The last issue I have with the HS80 is the microphone when flipped up to mute, is irritating to my hair. It’s bendable, so when you move your head around, the microphone also moves around, tussling with your hair.All in all, the headset is a premium headset worth its price. The reservations I have with it are not ones that would jeopardize someone from enjoying them, or is hopefully fixable.

Very disappointed in sound quality + lack of sizing adjustment
I am 100% corsair peripherals (mouse, keyboard, mouse pad, RGB, fans, headsets, etc). So trust me when I say that it is irregular for me to leave a negative review on a corsair product.I have rocked the Void pro wireless headset for the last several years, and while I have generally loved the sound quality and comfort of it, I’ve never liked the extremely loose fit of the headset (will fall off your head with a hard shake of the head or leaning over even at a 45 degree angle), and was starting to get some connectivity problems and padding wearing out, so decided it was time for an upgrade.I went back and forth between the HS80 max and the virtuoso XT as they were around the same price point at the time with discounts, but online reviews/reddit led me to choose the HS80 Max.Upon first use, I was shocked at how fit/snug the headset was. These certainly were not going to fall off my head by shaking/leaning over. And corsair highly touts the elastic strap for comfortability, but what they leave out is the headsets biggest flaw in my opinion….there are NO adjustments whatsoever for this headset to expand the size for larger heads. If your head is the size of the outer band you’re just SOL, and negates the point of the elastic band altogether. The reason this headset was so uncomfortably snug on my head is because there’s no way to expand it for larger heads. I cannot believe they did not have an adjustable outer band for this headset. I also found the mesh around the ears to be abrasive and cause irritation on my head, but it might’ve been because it was such a tight fit.Furthermore, I was very disappointed in the sound quality of this headset. I used the dolby atmos and sound ID option. Perhaps I am just so used to 7.1 surround in my gaming headsets for many years I just wasn’t used to atmos, but I use dolby atmos for my surround sound on my home theater system, and when playing video games with this headset the sound was…..very bland/lackluster. You can hear sounds coming from the sides/back, but nowhere near the quality of the 7.1 sound on the void pro headset in my opinion. Very disappointing.I returned the headset, and am trying to decide whether to give the virtuoso series a try, but for the first time in my gaming career I have hesitancy in choosing corsair for my PC gaming peripherals. If you’re in the same boat as me, I would exercise caution with this set.

Good quality at a great price.

I’ve been trying it for a few weeks, but I must say it exceeded my expectations. When I plug the USB stick into Win 11, the headphones are automatically added. If you download the Dolby app, you can set all the settings for free. In my 2-storey house, there was no disconnection in either the microphone or the headphones from the upper floor. You can use it for hours with a one-hour charge. The sound quality is also great. I use it mainly for gaming and have had no issues so far.

LOS HE USADO Y HASTA HOY MUY BIEN, BUENA CALIDAD DE AUDIO Y MATERIAL

Das scheinbar einzige Headset am Markt im Augenblick, das alles hat was ich brauche oder will und das in wirklich guter Qualität. Meine Must-Have-Punkte waren:*** Lange Akkulaufzeit ***Ich hatte vorher das EPOS GSP 370 mit 100 Stunden Laufzeit. Ich trage das Headset beruflich durchschnittlich 10 Stunden pro Tag und manchmal auch noch privat danach. Da darf es auch nicht ausfallen, wenn man mal versehentlich vergisst, es aufzuladen oder es muss schnell wieder aufladbar sein, notfalls auch während der Ladung benutzbar bleiben. Dieses Headset kann beides.*** Tragekomfort ***Genauso wichtig wie die Akkulaufzeit ist mir aus nachvollziehbaren Gründen der Tragekomfort. Die Kopfhörer dürfen nicht drücken, auch nach 12 oder 14 Stunden des Tragens nicht. Auf gar keinen Fall wollte ich Ohrpolster mit Kunstlederbezug. Erstens halten die nicht lange und zweitens hat man irgendwann kleine Fetzen davon laufend im Gesicht und am Ohr kleben. Es kam also nur Stoff oder Samt in Frage.*** Flip-To-Mute Mikrofon ***In Videokonferenzen will ich nicht erst nach einem Knopf fummeln müssen, um das Mikrofon anzuschalten. Noch viel weniger will ich mich auf Software verlassen, dass mein Mikrofon wirklich stumm geschalten ist. Es muss schnell, einfach und haptisch sicher an- und abschaltbar sein und das viele Male pro Tag. Nettes Zusatzfeature hier ist die LED, die das auch anzeigt am Mikrofon selbst.*** Lautsprecher und Mikrofonqualität ***Tatsächlich stehen diese beiden Punkte erst auf Platz 4 bei mir, was aber nicht bedeutet, dass ich den ganzen Tag den Sound einer Blechdose am Ohr ertragen will oder mir täglich das Genörgel meiner Kollegen/Kunden anhören möchte, wie furchtbar oder wie leise meine Stimme klingt. Und in dem Punkt muss sich dieses Corsair Heatset überhaupt nicht vor EPOS 370/390 oder sogar vor Apple AirPods Max verstecken (schon gar nicht wenn man den Preisabstand zum letztgenannten mit in die Bewertung nimmt, wobei aber der Preis in der Apple-Fanboy-Gemeinde im Allgemeinen ohnehin egal und daher kein Argument in dieser Zielgruppe ist). Tatsächlich lassen sich mit diesem Headset auch Filme sehr gut schauen und Musik hören.*** Sonstiges ***Dolby ATMOS brauche ich nicht, habe ich auch nicht ausprobiert und kann dazu nichts sagen. Bluetooth Konnektivität hat es wohl auch, weswegen man das Gerät theoretisch mit dem Mobiltelefon koppeln und gleichzeitig über Dongle mit dem Laptop/PC verbunden wäre. Dann könnte man im laufenden Betrieb hin- und her schalten, was sicherlich sehr praktisch ist für den, der es braucht.Die LEDs an der Seite sollten über iCUE steuerbar sein, aber das ist für mich weder interessant ist, noch habe ich es ausprobiert. Wer aber sonst auch Corsair verbaut hat, der wird sich sicherlich über dieses Feature freuen.Fazit:Es ist ein schnurloses Headset im gehobenen Segment. Kein High-End und kein Buget, sondern solide in sehr guter Qualität. Und das ist leider gar nicht mehr selbstverständlich für Markenhersteller – zumindest für die allermeisten. Corsair ist (zumindest noch) eine lobenswerte Ausnahme ohne gleich Mondpreise aufzurufen wie etwa Apple. Für mich perfekt, ich würde sogar sagen “Wie für mich gemacht” und daher starke Kaufempfehlung von mir.

The original HS80 wireless headset is perfect, comfy, sounds great, but also has an AMAZING microphone! It is easily the best headset microphone I have ever used.When I heard there was an updated version of this headset with extra battery life I was so excited!So the HS80 MAX… It’s still comfy I guess, but the audio quality has taken a small dip (Even with optimized settings in the ICUE app). But most important of all is the quality of microphone is awful. This is a complete deal-breaker for me, as I now sound like a robot with a sinus infection.The best features of this headset are gone. Really sad. Just buy the original HS80 and save some money!

Inizialmente non ero molto sicuro di acquistarle, dato che non ho trovato nessuna recensione, ma consultando Amazon US ho potuto vedere che questo modello è molto apprezzato.Le cuffie si presentano ben confezionate e con un design moderno. in confezione è presente un cavo usb-a usb-c molto lungo per eventualmente usarle durante la ricarica.la qualità dell’audio ed il livello del volume sono in grado di soddisfare le esigenze di tutti gli audiofili e tramite il software icue e dolby access è possibile modificare equalizzatore e profili audio.Le cuffie sono davvero leggerissime in confronto ad altri modelli wireless che ho provato, ed il padiglione è abbastanza grande per indossarle per ore in comodità .Non ho capito però se è possibile ascoltare l’audio in arrivo dal ricevitore e dal bluetooth contemporaneamente, caratteristica presente in altri modelli di cuffie wireless.In generale comunque sono delle ottime cuffie ed anche se il prezzo non è accessibile a tutti le consiglio.
