Corsair Gaming Void RGB Elite Wireless Premium Gaming Headset with K70 RGB MK.2 SE Mechanical Keyboard - White USB Passthrough & Media Controls for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X - Perfect for Competitive Gaming & Streaming

Works wonderful. Is exactly what I was looking for. Ear peices are super comfortable.As a portly man, I understand the importance of a quality gaming headset. This chicken and rice inspired omelette of closeted questionable camaraderie arrived via decommissioned XRT ChristStrike military drone directly onto my favourite doorstep within the agreed upon delivery terms. Once I plugged these muffs in, they transported me to another galaxy of wonder and bliss. I found myself questioning some of the very foundations of life itself. After using these, I began to question the quality of the sound that surrounds us in it’s most unrestrained, rawest and freest form. Everybody knows I love my George Foreman grill, and now that I have my head phones, I won’t have to hear my wife tell me to stop playing Assassins Creed 2 because I “haven’t slept in three days” or whatever. This lamp gets my seal of approvalAt 50% volume, rgb and mic off, the headset lasts 9-10 hours brand new after fully charging. "Up to 16 hours" must be with the headset on, with no sound. This basically seems like false advertising there.The battery life is basically the 30% than my 6+ year old Corsair Vengeance headset, that was used for 6+ hours daily. This basically solved none of my problems. You can't even use the rgb because the 2 little rgb insignias actually drain the battery even worse. With rgb on, my old headset actually lasts longer.I'm a big Corsair fan, really enjoy their products typically, but this one feels below their par.Other than that, it is fairly comfortable and sound quality is pretty good. Microphone also seems to be vLet's get the ugly out of the way first. This headset is possibly the WORSE I've ever owned in respect to connect-ability. For it to connect and stay connected you constantly have to go to sound settings and select it as default & default communication device...not a problem usually, but for some reason. When I try to connect to steam chat, I'm forever having to do this and unplug and re plug the dongle for it to connect. I was ok with it at first, but NOW it's just annoying the hell out of me. Not to mention whenever I plug the dongle in the USB port, I ALWAYS get a "searching for device driver" window pop up and once again search for the driver that's been downloaded at least a dozen times over. VERY VERY FRUSTRATING AND MADDENING. I fail to understand this. My old Logitech wireless NEVER EVER had this issue, I'd simply plug the dongle in and a small headset beep then I was good to go....ALWAYS.That being said this headset IS however, very comfortable and the sound / microphone quality is just as nice as my old headset (may she rest in peace). I don't really care for lights on the headset, it's nice and all, but really not necessary IMHO, as I don't like these additional bells and whistles that suck battery life. On that subject, the battery is ok, however my old headset far outlasted this one for battery life longevity. This one will give you about 6 hours, my old logitech was 10. All in all I would cautiously recommend this headset, but hindsight being what it now is, next one will NOT be a Corsair, unless they get their act together and fix these connection issues. OH, by the way, the software kind of sucks for me as well. Too many bells and whistles. JUST KEEP IT SIMPLE!!!Edit Nov 24, 2019. I've decided to return these. I spent 30 minutes trying to get these to work when in a Steam game, so while my buddy's playing and waiting I'm fiddling around with settings. 30 minutes is too much. It's not just in Steam, for some reason (on occasion), the headset freezes up my windows media player to the point where it just simply won't play music. This whole experience actually made me do a fresh Windows 7 install, and the problem is still there. The frustration of the constant fiddling around to get them to do what I want simply, is too much for me. Therefore I cannot really recommend these, unless of course you don't mind fiddling around with settings 99% of the time. I'm reducing my rating from 3 to 2RETURN TO THE PREVIOUS EAR CUPS. THESE CUPS ARE NOT THAT GOOD.Turns out i was able to just swap them. Thank goodness. I prefer the old foam as it was more open backed. less seal which is all just preference.Upgraded from the first edition of these headphones.Pros: Light on the mic is much clearer.Automutes on up/down motion.PriceSound qualitySoftware compatibleCons: The foam that they use in this version provides more of a seal.The fabric is very Crinkly when you move your head around.The foam squishes a lot which results in ear slightly touching inside. (previous version didnt have this problem.)Mic is too flexible/rippable.my previous headset had the mic rip off after 1.5 years. lived another 3-4 months with tape/glue. Only reason I upgraded is the battery life sucks.Pros:Sound Quality - More than adequate for my needs as a gamer. I'm told voice transmission sounds great.Solid Microphone boom(with lift to mute) - Feels solid, interior design looks more durable than the headset I bought this to replace, an Astro A50(because their mic design literally tears itself apart over extended usage)Comfortable Cups - They're surprisingly comfortable, but the shape takes some getting used to.Rotating Cups - another feature my busted A50 had, you can rotate the cups 90 degrees to hang them on your neck and lay the cups on your shoulders.Muffling - While this is a feature aswell, some may find it a con, it muffles most exterior sounds which can reduce your ability to hear things around you considerably.Cons:Also the Rotating Cups - This one gets listed as a Con aswell because they rotate INWARD( as opposed to the A50s, which widened when you rotated the cups), maybe I just have a big neck, but the front edge of the cups angle down to press against the sides of my throat when these are resting on my shoulders.THE LIGHTS! - I have no idea why everything these days needs vanity LEDs, but wow are these bright and they don't seem to like to save my settings in the corsair application. I feel kind of like an emergency vehicle when I walk around my house at night because they will light up a room with strobing colours.Sound Bleed - Weird that it muffles exterior sounds so well, yet even at very low settings these seem to be clearly audible to people around you. Not useful for privacy, if that's a concern. At medium sound settings the microphone can even pick up some of the more intense outputs, according to people on voice comms. Combine with above con regarding lighting and play siren sounds when you walk around the house with these I guess for comedic effect?Connection issues at end of range - If you frequently walk out of range of your headset, or behind refrigerators or other dense, metal objects, you may find that you have to reboot it a couple of times for it to reconnect to its tranciever when walking back in range/Line of sight.Bottom line: Lots of weird/annoying cons, but for the price you won't find a more comfortable or solid headset. A good choice if you don't feel like shelling out $400 for a pair of Astro A50s and can live without dual channel balance.
