Consumer Reports

This Bluetooth headset has a claimed battery life of up to 15 hours. It features 3D Audio Advantage technology for Playstation consoles and Windows Sonic surround sound tech for Xbox consoles. On-ear controls let you adjust the game and chat volume independently and apply preset settings for bass, treble, and voice chat. According to one participant in a recent CR headset study, the SuperHuman Hearing setting is helpful for detecting footsteps and other subtle sounds. You mute the mic by flipping it upward. The headset is compatible with Nintendo Switch; PS 5, PS 4, and PS 4 Pro; Windows 10 PCs; and XBox Series X/S and Xbox One, but you have to choose the correct model for your computer or console.

This is the third Corsair product I've encountered issues with, either within a very short amount of time using or out of the box. The wireless function of the headset is nice and convenient, the headset is comfortable, and the audio quality is good AFTER installing iCUE and setting your preferences. The battery life is abysmal. My product had issues out of the box, where it will not charge beyond 78% regardless of how long it is charging, and the battery drains at what seems like a very quick pace (two hours and half that 78% charge is gone)

 The battery life is abysmal. My product had issues out of the box, where it will not charge beyond 78% regardless of how long it is charging, and the battery drains at what seems like a very quick pace (two hours and half that 78% charge is gone). Other friends of mine, who have the exact same model headset, have reported similar problems with theirs.  Combined with the other problems I had with other Corsair products, I would not in good faith recommend buying this or any other of their products

Never buying another Corsair product again

 I can unplug them in the morning and be absolutely certain they will get me through a full work day. If I forget to charge them at night, they will still be fine for at least a few hours the next morning. Their connectivity has been rock solid - never disconnected unless I disconnect them by walking too far away, and then reconnecting instantly. I also love the flip-up micr acting as a mute switch not visible to others on a Zoom call

 I had a Logitech headset with a non-Bluetooth dongle that was pretty good, but the battery always died before the end of the day - I had to be sure to charge them in any downtime during the day.  These Corsair ones have been great. I can unplug them in the morning and be absolutely certain they will get me through a full work day. If I forget to charge them at night, they will still be fine for at least a few hours the next morning

Great headset for work

 These are not worth the price at all.  I typically buy headphones that I can switch between gaming and recording audio on, and I can already tell that trying to record music with these is going to be useless. I am returning these and going for the Sennheiser set and hopefully the sound quality, setup and design will be better with those, even though the reviews are kind of terrible too.  Also, they took forever to get here

 I am returning these and going for the Sennheiser set and hopefully the sound quality, setup and design will be better with those, even though the reviews are kind of terrible too.  Also, they took forever to get here. I ordered them on the 9th and they got here on the 14th. Not as quick as advertised when buying

Let me start by saying that I use these for Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare on PS4. They fit just fine, but they get really hot around the ears easily. The sound quality on these things sucks terribly bad, extremely low volume with absolutely no bass at all. You can hardly hear other gamers talk, and the mic quality sucks just as bad too

 The sound quality on these things sucks terribly bad, extremely low volume with absolutely no bass at all. You can hardly hear other gamers talk, and the mic quality sucks just as bad too.  The fact that I can't use these wirelessly without the USB stick is beyond stupid. I tried to set these up for like 15 mins and it took a lot of back and forth between the PS4 and PC

Sound quality, shipping and setup.

  Now to the cons - top heavy (the headband will rest on the top of your skull). I've owned higher end wireless gaming headsets in the past, and also owned decent OTE (over the ear) headphones, and the weight of the headset should be distributed around your entire head. These just kind of hang, there's no 'clamping' tension keeping them pressed to the sides of your head. For this reason, after about 20-30 minutes they are mildly uncomfortable

 So there's a gap. Thus, sound quality suffers because it lets in outside noise. - Out of the box, the default configuration is to commence auto-shutdown after.

Could be a great product, but it's just mediocre

Comfortable headset for larger head, falls off of smaller heads. The ear cuffs rotate so you can lay the headset flat on the table. The ear cuffs are comfortable and not hot. Decent quality audio and mic

Works, Painful to Pair

Love this headset! I have a newborn at home and these are perfect for work calls since I am working from home. it is noise cancelling enough and I love that the microphone mutes automatically when you lift it up so if i need to yell something out at home, no one on the call can hear. Would highly recommend

Great fit and quality

 This is a review of a gaming headset from Corsair that I've already unboxed and I've also done a comparison, video to compare it with the Corsair virtuoso, which is a headset that I unboxed and reviewed recently. That'S worth taking a look at as well and I'll link to those videos in the description, but this is a review to give you my thoughts on the headset and what I think it's like, and also to talk about. The various features I'll include the specifications in the description, but I'm going to talk about some of them before we get started and let you know that the audio you're hearing the voice over for this video is recorded with the microphone just so you can get an Idea of the quality of that now, I'm not gon na do any editing to the sound. So you won't be hearing any noise cancelled out

 In that way, I tested out recently a headset from a different brand that was sound, limited and would stop you going above a certain decibel level. This one works in the face of that and it's quite happy to defin you if you choose to do so, so be wary of how loud you use this headset. Now, a number of really cool features are a flip to mute microphone, which is pretty good. It'S very flexible mark as well and, as you can see, it delivers a pretty good quality of sound on the side of the ear cup here you'll see there is a mic mute button and the power button, a single pressing, the mic mute button and you'll note That the red ring comes on there

You can also press and hold the mic button to turn the mic feedback on and off one thing I've noted there is there's, sometimes a problem with it. For example, when I was just talking to you, then I press that to turn the mic mute on, so I turn the mic off and then, when I turn it back on again side tone was off, so I could couldn't hear myself

 Has a good range. It'S fantastic for music. One of the points of note immediately is: it is ridiculously loud. This headset top volume would probably definite it goes very, very loud and is impressive

Then on top of the typical JBL quality, you have easy access to your Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa while you are away from home.

The sound quality is out of this world. Download the JBL Headphone App, and you can set the equalizer to your preference. Or you can choose from the preset settings. The bass is phenomenal

Best headphones I've ever owned!

 The battery life thus far has been awesome, im still working on my first charge. It connects easily to my devices with no issues. The sound quality has been amazing for me, yes its not very bassy like some people said but again for me personally I don't like a lot of bass so I have no complaints. Overall would buy again or recommended to people, JBL remains my go to brand for audio devices

 As other people have said they are for smaller heads, but that was a main motivator for me since I am smaller and every other headset I find that I like are far to big. These fit perfectly on my head and over my ears without slipping down or falling off, and I've been running with them. The battery life thus far has been awesome, im still working on my first charge.

Favorite wireless headset

The JBL Live 500BT are fairly versatile headphones that have a decent sound profile. These headphones are quite similar to the JBL E55BT, which seem to be the previous lineup before the Live series. The Live 500BT will be suitable for most music genres and have amazing battery life. Unfortunately, this model doesn&rsquo;t have active noise cancelling (ANC), which means they won&rsquo;t be ideal for commuting

Unfortunately, this model doesn&rsquo;t have active noise cancelling (ANC), which means they won&rsquo;t be ideal for commuting. For similar noise cancelling headphones, look at the higher-end JBL Live 650BTNC. On the upside, the Live 500BT have a good companion app that gives you access to a full parametric EQ, which allows you to customize their sound to your liking

JBL Live 500BT Wireless

This is my third pair of bluetooth headphones. They are comfortable and have good sound quality. They have a ton of features I don't care about (noise cancelling, voice controls, etc.)  Does better than others: the ability to be connected to multiple devices at once is pretty good

Multiconnect is actually good?

Got these headphones about two weeks ago and love them so far. Bluetooth works very well with my phone but has trouble connecting to my Dell laptop. Amazing battery life and very user-friendly. Sound quality is amazing and they are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time

 Amazing battery life and very user-friendly. Sound quality is amazing and they are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Definitely worth the investment!

Some of the best headphones I've had!

What I liked:  They offer decent noise cancellation even though there is no active noise cancellation. Sometimes my house or my office at work can get a bit noisy and these completely cut out the distractions for me.  They fit great on my giant head, battery life is great and sound is good enough.  Now what I don't like is that they have almost no bass at all and no real way to fix that, I'm sure if you had a sound mixer in MacOS you could fix this but as they come I noticed a significant drop in bass compared to some of my other over-the-ear headphones of the past

Good for what they do.

 They were way too tight even after adjusting them - and I have a pretty small face! I'm a small female so I did not expect any headphones to be too tight for me. The sides of the earpieces pressed into my jawbones and I would develop a blistering headache after wearing them for an hour or so. I ended up trading these in for the Everest headphones which I love. The extra $50 gets you higher quality material and way more comfort

I was very disappointed by these. Sound quality was good, similar to other JBL (great midtones, weaker bass), but I was disappointed by a couple things. First thing I noticed is that the joints are made of plastic - not really what I expected from headphones over $100. Second, these HURT

Decent headphones, Very uncomfortable

These are by far my favorite headphones to date. I’m at my computer for hours daily either gaming or simply watching entertainment on the internet and I’ve been through countless headphones with none of them fitting the needs I have. I need headphones that are comfortable that don’t hurt my ears, no wires to fumble around, great sound quality, noise cancellation and also a battery that won’t die every 8 hours. So far I have always had to trade some of those things for another, however not with these

My Favorite Headphones

These sound great, and are comfortable, but so far I am unable to figure out how to adjust volume when paired with my macbook pro. With the iPhone, it works as expected, but the volume control with macbook pro does not - if I turn off sound entirely, it also mutes on the headphones, but otherwise is either on full or off. I wasn't able to find information online to get it working properly.

Sound great, but macbook only turns sound off/on?

 But These headphones are great at this price. If something happened to these cans today, I would buy them tomorrow without question. So, no doubt get these cans people! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

 They are on the bass heavy side. Somehow, they are well rounded with a wide sound stage. I listen to a wide range music and everything sounded amazing. Also, there is an app that you can dial in the sound that you want

 More useful than I thought. Another useful feature is the multi connection button. You can toggle from one device to another with just a hit of a button. This is very convenient and useful

 The most useful feature for me is the ambient aware. On top of all these features the headphones sound amazing. They are on the bass heavy side. Somehow, they are well rounded with a wide sound stage
