The sound quality is good, and its a tight but rather comfortable fit. The only gripe I have is that I have to extend fully on the headband to fit my head. For those with bigger head sizes, I do not recommend this.

Headset com uma construção muito boa, que passa uma sensação de robustez e durabilidade, eu uso óculos e mesmo assim não incomoda mesmo após duas horas de uso, as conchas auriculares abafam passivamente o som externo de uma forma que me surpreendeu. Um ponto positivo é o software Dolby Atmos Que basta ligar o headset que o mesmo é ativado, assim como os presets do equalizador.
Recomendo com empenho.

I love this headset, the range is not awesome as it can’t reach from my gaming room to my kitchen about 40ft. Not going to knock it for that since most devices wont reach that anyway without assistance. I’ll use these off and on with wired headsets that I prefer because of my DAC. Still its good quality sound and I’ve never had this thing die on me and I charge it regularly. Every now and again the USB connection will cause cracking and popping. Seems to come and go without my intervention but since I used my wired one a lot not really a big deal.

I absolutely love this headset. I ordered it after looking at many reviews online and it appears that it has been revised or this package just comes with more features. I thought it had micro-usb, but I am happy to report it charges via usb-c and came with a high quality braided cable. The included aux cable is very nice and flexible and also braided, but be sure to follow the directions to plug the headset end into the headset. I forgot to do this and was having some weird audio issues with the microphone until I corrected it. It also came with a microphone wind cover (the foam thing on the mic) that completely gets rid of the issues some people were having in windy conditions or when they speak loudly.
The sound quality is amazing for the price point, with clear highs and good bass. It won’t blow you out of the water like a proper surround sound system with high-end speakers will but it sounds very good and I really like listening to music on it. For a comparison it is most definitely ahead of AirPods in sound quality, so if you are looking for a good headset and like AirPods quality level this will be a good upgrade. I haven’t had a battery issue yet because I haven’t run it all the way down, but I’ve heard it lasts about 15 hours.
Comfort is best in class. It lists snugly on my head and won’t fall off easily, without pressing my head like a vice. The metal construction for the headband is very strong and I don’t think it will lose it’s ability to stay snug on my head anytime soon, but I’ll update this if it does. Build quality is phenomenal, it is very sturdy, all foam pieces feel thick and I know they won’t compress with time. I feel the headband on my head but it is very light and won’t become uncomfortable or anything after long play sessions. The only issue is if you run hot the fake leather ear cups may become decently hot after a while, but I’m just sitting in my room with the fan on and it doesn’t happen to me. Might not be fun in the summer heat though.
The looks of it are great, it doesn’t look like a gamer headset or anything and I love that the mic is detachable for when I don’t want it. I really like the matte black look and it just looks really nice and feels high-quality in person.
The microphone is good, albeit not the best it could be. My friends have no problem hearing me and I sound clear, the sound just sounds slight robotic and makes my voice somewhat lower and slightly flatter when it loses some of the high notes. I hope future iterations will be upgraded since microphone components aren’t incredibly expensive and quality would benefit greatly. If Corsair decided to be really nice they could even sell a better microphone since it is detachable, but I doubt that will happen.
To compare it to other headsets I’ve owned, it is the best I’ve ever had. I owned the first generation turtle beach stealth 700 and can’t speak for the second gen, but this stays on my head much better, had much better sound quality, looks much nicer (much nicer than the second gen turtle beach’s too in my opinion), and is constructed much better. The second gen turtle beach have usb-c, metal headbands, and probably sound better too so they will probably be a much better competitor though. Like I said, they sound better than AirPods but obviously AirPods are ear buds and are in a different convenience class.
A lot of users had reported the microphone not working when using Bluetooth, but whether it’s the updated version or whatever, it works perfectly fine for me. I can make phone calls from my phone perfectly fine using Bluetooth. Although, at least on iOS and macOS, only the play/pause of the multi-function button work. You’re supposed to be able to double and triple click for skip/previous, but all that does is pause it for me, so hopefully that gets fixed. Another thing that would be nice with a firmware update is adding support for battery indicators in iOS and android operating systems, and making it easier to view in the iCUE app on computer. It would be really nice to look at the connected device and know what it’s battery is since it doesn’t have a button to say the battery level or something like some headphones do.
All in all, this is a really nice headset that is very worth it if you have the money. With great sound, excellent accessories, and amazing comfort and build quality, it will be hard to find a competitor to this headset.

I’ve been looking for a good headset, preferably wireless, for use with video conferencing and call center telephony work on two different computers. This was my fifth attempt of both wired and wireless, all the others fell short for one or more reasons. And I think I finally have a winner. I’ve had these for two and a half days.
I’m not a gamer, but all the headsets I saw advertised for more general use or conferencing-specific fell short of a couple critical needs for me. My home office has an AC in the window this time of year, and there is an active passenger and freight rail maybe ~100 feet from my window and the horns blow right across from me. So I need something that provides both sound isolation for my ears and noise cancellation for the mic. So that means over-ear, not on-ear, and not a cheap set.
These are not lightweight. But they are well balanced across the top of the head and the grip force around the ears is firm but not tight. Which is doubly good because I wear glasses. I’d call these glasses friendly. Unlike one of the others I tested, the buttons are placed that I do not hit them when putting on/taking off the headset, so they’re intelligently placed in that regard. That said, the buttons could be placed better. Charging port should be on the right can with the power button, then the mute and volume controls moved down on the left, closer to the mic. Speaking of the mic, I wish it was a flip-up mic rather than a fixed-placement plug-in with a gooseneck. Flip out of the way IMO is superior to unplug out of the way.
Sound quality is very good in, and so far no complaints on the outbound audio (one 8 hour call center shift). Audio was tested with voice, music and YouTube prior to use with work. Don’t ask me for a frequency range comparison, I’m a middle aged guy who used to play Led Zep, AC.DC and ZZ Top too loud when younger, plus motorcycles… (no hearing aids, but my hearing has suffered.)
I did not rate the noise cancelation function because I don’t know how good it is, if it’s even there with the iCue software not running.
About that iCue software… imo that’s the worst thing about this. I get it that for some functions it’s needed, such as the virtual 7.1 surround, EQ, and a couple others. But other settings should be either on the headset or accessible within the regular drivers, such as the idle timer. Fortunately, it turns out that for my use I don’t actually need the iCue software; I can’t install it on the laptop I use for work. I was therefore concerned about the idle timer turning the headset off when not in active use, but it appears to be not a full power off, but rather a low-power standby as when I tested prior to actual use after letting it sit idle for an extended period of time I got sound within less than a half second vs no delay when in active use. And on my own PC the iCue software really, REALLY bogged things down after the post-install restart.
