Corsair HS50 Gaming Headset Review

It is fair to say Corsair products don't usually come cheap. With its new HS50 headset, however, Cor A new £55 headset from Corsair – surely it must be trash? Think again

Affordable.

Ear cushions aren’t removable.

Corsair has created an excellent gaming headset in the HS50. If you have less than £60 to spend, this is the best gaming headset out there.

Corsair HS50 Stereo Gaming Headset Review: Just Good Enough

The Corsair HS50 is totally functional for gaming and works on a wide variety of platforms, but it doesn't do much to distinguish itself.

Comfortable fit ; Decent game audio ; Inexpensive

Disappointing music performance ; Dated design ; No defining features

In the meantime, Corsair's first crack at a budget gaming headset is competent. But until Corsair can do something to make the HS50 (or its successor) stand out, that's almost all there is to say about it.
