  • Audio quality and comfort will always be subjective so choosing a gaming headset is as difficult as shopping for PC monitors, if not much harder. we recommend taking the time to try these gaming headsets out from retail stores near you so you can hear an...

  • Relatively inexpensive, fairly comfortable,
  • Lackluster microphone quality, not as convenient to use
  • All in all, we didn't find anything majorly wrong with this headset and it gets the job done. However, it is incredibly far from being one of our favorites. It might be worth considering if you can find it deeply discounted, but otherwise, there are far b...

  • Attractive price point, Sharp, understated design, Intuitive volume/mute controls, Good sound (after equalizer optimizations)
  • Not ideal for large heads, Exaggerated lows and highs by default
  • As an inexpensive gaming headset, Corsair's HS50 does exactly what it's supposed to, with an acoustic profile to match the target market. True audio enthusiasts can tune this for more natural sound, as we've done. However, a tight fit may prove uncomf...

  • Good value, Excellent build quality, Multi-platform compatible, Comfortable for hours of gaming
  • Audio performance is better with an EQ, Microphone does not sound very natural
  • In terms of audio performance, sounds do sound rather dull without an equalizer setup. Even without one, the bass does not overpower the treble making it easier to hear most of what is going around you in a game. The microphone is clear for other players...

  • While the HS50 does not look as flashy and lacks some features that we often found on the more expensive unit, it kept what is ultimately most important things that you want in a headphone, namely comfort and sound quality. For $50, the HS50 delivers well...

  • Where could you go wrong with this purchase? “With an MSRP of just $49.99, the HS50 STEREO redefines what is possible in an entry level gaming headset by offering comfort, audio performance and build quality not available anywhere at this price.”  Related...
