You probably dont give a shit but if you're stoned like me atm then you can stream pretty much all the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been streaming with my gf for the last few days :)
Please, i need your answers ASAP. Which is better overall the Corsair HS50 or Hyperx Cloud Stinger. I really love gaming and im a hardcore fortnite gamer and im in PS4. Thanks :) (my main criterias are comfort, sound, and mic and i also WEAR GLASSES)
I appreciate you pointing out that breaking point. So many "reviews" on youtube are basically just thinly veiled ads where they only talk about the positives. This kind of thing matters to me, as I take my PC to LANs very regularly.
Hey, is it good for listening to music? I'm not a music enthusiast but I do listen to music often, so I'd like to know if it's any good. How is the bass, etc?
If someone has Mic problems almost any kind..i suggest to pick up if you find on sale or second hand Hyperx USB amp module. Makes all the difference. No static noise of any kind after that etc background noise when almost zero. I had problem that when i am on game chatting i wanna have option to hear myself because i don't wanna be shouting, but background noise was overwhelming..and i bought hyperx usb amp on sale and and it all went away. Now it's perfect. It boosts volume too and you get 7.1 surround that work kinda ok nothing special on that appartment. Remember upgrade the firmware from Hyperx site.
I watched this video back in 2019 when I bought this headset, I trusted this review. I was really upset when I discovered that the headset has a lot of spill or bleed, meaning that the audio you hear can be heard through your microphone, even when the volume isn't loud. So this means that when you are on a call with someone they will hear whatever you are hearing a lot of the time which is a BIG drawback. I thought this review tested this but apparently not.
Already bought them. Came here to reassure that I made the right choice. I do have a question tho. Can I plug any microphone into the headset's mic jack?
@@nolankevinhamel2997 I use it for my laptops. The sound has good bass and I love it. Plus, great for comfort and style. One issue I had was the mic. Don't know where I put it and can't find anymore. And, lately, I bought Audio Technica M40X and it was such a let down! I guess I'm just spoiled by HS50's bass. Anyway, I don't know what else would be great for now. You can look around. Good luck.
Kraken X, the Corsair is nice but when you talk, it picks up your P and F a lot and the kraken x has more of a clear audio. But I would consider getting the Hs50 😉
I have this exact headset and my friends can hear everything I’m doing in games or videos and more. I’ve had this headset for about six months and this echo has been the whole time:(
literally just got this headset today (like 4 hours ago) and so far it is very much comfortable :) but then again I've only had it for a few hours so idk
AquaticGamer headsets aren’t really the best for TH-cam, but streams are fine. I do not have neither of these so I can’t tell you which one to get but the hs50 looks more aesthetically pleasing and the removable mic is practical.
These are like 40-50$ on ebay or amazon but in my country i paid them 100$ and tbh the mic sound is very bad, tried every possible way to make it even a little better but nothing helped, my friends while on discord say that when i speak it sounds like im in a small can and theres distortion/static sound, pretty sure its not broken but very poorly made if you have the money just go for hyper x cloud 2 or razer kraken trust me
Hey, loved the video keep it up specially like the fact that you from SA and I have reviews of products that are available in my region (Moz), neighbors tho.
@@awges The cloud pro's come with much more comfort and quality (sound[subjective] and build) along with a more equipped packaging like a pair of cloth cushions, more adapters, etc... But you do get what you pay for, they are more expensive
i recently bought this headphones, and for some reason the microphone volume is just really low. i tried alot to raise it with many applications and tutorials, but it just doesnt let me... and i just received them today and i dont really understand what would be the problem, i dont know if it was a faulty product or something but i just dont know
WesternWes that is called EMI my friend, this is usually when you have a certain light or charger that isn’t plugged in and is causing interference. I had this problem and the start but then plugged my phone into the charger and it was all good
Those twistable joint thingies on the sides ruined it for me. I'm not rough with my headsets, but they *always* break at exactly those two points, which have to take the most pressure, a few months into using the things. Why would anyone deliberately weaken those specific parts? 😔
To make people purchase again, just like HyperX Stinger, Logitech G430 and some others... they all have the same weak point it makes me mad. I thought it was strong enough but your comment convince me to just skip these ones too. Also the controls being in the left ear wtf? I'm so dissapointed, I really wanted to get these... Any recommendation of strong headsets? It's better if it doesn't have any of that modern crap (7.1 , controls not being in the cable, etc).
Same here every single one broke at those two points I dont know why I really take good care of my headsets but they break one after another (Record: 1 year Turtle Beach PX 24 )
I got mine on amazon too, but I think it was a knock off one kinda, because the mic is SUPER quiet and you can hear my background audio. Do you have the same problems or no?
Bros I bought Corsair hs50 too but I am a serious problem that is my mic is picking up my desktop audio,like everything that's playing on desktop like game sounds, TH-cam videos, Spotify everything,I can't talk with people properly cuz they listen to my desktop audio, please help if you know the answer
I have not used the Stinger before. But its HyperX so it will be good. If you can save up a bit more and get the Cloud Core. I still have the Gen1 Clouds and its AMAZING.
@@Sonasic the thing is windows will not allow you to adjust boost to your liking..you only have +10 or +20..... maybe if you can boost it to 5 it will be perfect i guess.....mine is not here yet.... i wanna know how this headset performs..
For the Corsair HS (50/60/etc) the point where the ear-cups meet the headband, they usually break according to customer reviews of the item. How do you prevent that from happening?
@@exile3965 That's unfortunate. But yeah, I hope I don't make this headset fall over me, it's new after all, I can't stand losing something new and expensive early on. Edit: The reason I said it's expensive is because I'm from Indonesia, so $50 is still quite expensive when coverted into Indonesian rupiah.
Just got one today and using it right now ...... the design is great it feels premium but the sound quality is not really that great ...... ummm.... they sacrificed the sound quality to make it seem and feel premium i would just say fish out the extra 50$ and just go for the 100$ range.
If u have 1 jack it may not be a headphone jack it’s a headset jack if you stare at it you might see a little microphone sticking out of the headphone in the logo near the jack
So im wanting a great headset for a good price, i had mdr 7506 that sounds great on músic and gaming too! Them i have on my list two options: AKG k92 that is the same price as This HS50 Corsair. And This one as Well. I got curious about its driver,It is 50mm that is rare on market today but i something New, i Wonder what type of drive It is? Neodymiun?

Is the mic clear and loud?
@@krev838 The mic is good enough for me. It's better if you hear some samples from TH-cam to see if it is suited for you or not.
what do you think will be better? the HS50 or the Arctis 3?
Not sure whether to get the Razer Kraken 2019, or the Corsair HS350 anyone know which would be better
Maybe the razor kraken
Kraken X, the Corsair is nice but when you talk, it picks up your P and F a lot and the kraken x has more of a clear audio. But I would consider getting the Hs50 😉
I have been playing with Samsung s6 earplugs for over a year and i was happy with it.
I am thinking about buying these but is it really worth it ?
No don't buy this, they didn't optimise the sound equally. One side is louder than the other side and it's so annoying, hated it.
Is it good to buy
