Description
Corsair pitched the HS55 Wireless at players who want a wireless headset that disappears on the head. The plush ear pads and lightweight frame keep pressure off, and the white and grey finish suits a tidy desk as much as a dark battle station.
On PC, iCUE adds a custom equaliser, sidetone control and NVIDIA Broadcast noise removal for the microphone. On PlayStation it simply works through the USB receiver. The box holds the headset, the USB transmitter and the charging cable.
What stands out
2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth
Low-latency wireless through the USB receiver for PC and PlayStation, Bluetooth for phones and laptops, switched with one button.
