Corsair HS60 Haptic Headset review 5

Posted by: Krzysztof Hukalowicz on: 10/15/2020 03:00 PM [ 9 comment(s) ]

Corsair has an extensive offering that consists of a variety of PC components and peripherals. Headsets are also covered, starting with the more budget-oriented HS range, running upwards to the very high-end Void series. In this review, we’re checking out the all-new Corsair HS60 Haptic. It was announced on the 15th of October, and it’s a different revision of the HS60 model, which we already reviewed before (both the regular and Pro versions).

I strap 2 rumble pads to each side of my head, great surround!

These phones appear to be a lot better though :D

Here is my "review" of the Corsair HS"anything".

The problem with these HS50, HS60, and HS70 is the design is weak. Check the reviews on Amazon on all/any of them and you'll see an alarming number of them with photos of the broken plastic junk that holds the ear cups onto the headband. Also the volume potentiometers are the cheapest possible garbage and will also fail in short order leaving you with, scratchy, shorted out, or no sound on one or both sides. The only time mic mute switches, and volume controls are acceptable are if they are inline on a detachable/replaceable cable or, maybe, if they made them out of quality materials, but yeah, that ain't gonna happen under ~$500.

TLDR: Corsair (Razer is worse) = $15 Chinese junk sold as $100 "brand name *blink blink* GAMER *flash flash* GEAR *look!!1 shiny!!!*" that just falls apart all from it's own weight. You should add these photos to your advert... reviews of them.

I am not going to dismiss that there will be users having issues in some way or form. But let you show you my Vengeance 1500, now 6 years old and used often. And literally, I just took this photo. .... six years ...

Those look nice (and sturdy). Totally different design though. The HS line seems to have the weak point I mentioned. Problem is Corsair does not seem to care about changing it.

I have a ~15 year old pair of Sennheiser PC161's I could show you that still look nice too...but they are trash! I only keep them as a backup, just in case everything else fails. Non removable, flimsy, little, super thin cord with inline volume control that has been shorting out for 13+ years. I have to constantly tap and wiggle it to keep the sound on. All the faux leather has pealed away, onto my head mostly (within the first year when I actually still used them) like the photo of the Corsair's above. The only reason they lasted this long is they very rarely get used though, and that is SENNHEISER (a "proper" headphone maker)...not Corsair...but I digress...

I've been using a pair of Superlux HD668b for the last 6 years. Those things were $38, built like a tank, and sound like they cost 5x that. They sound way better than any "gamer headset" I have ever heard. Of course they don't have a mic, but there are other options for that and you could get the headphones and a mic for half the price of the Corsairs.
