Corsair has been making accessories for a long time, and over the years it has made a lot of gaming headsets. The Corsair HS60 PRO SURROUND, which came out in September 2019, is on the simple side, but it covers the basics and has some important features like surround sound.
The Corsair HS60 PRO are wired gaming headphones that are pretty good. They are comfortable enough to use for long gaming sessions, and since they are wired, you don’t have to stop to charge a battery. Their microphone is pretty good, but your voice sounds thin and not very clear. On the plus side, it does a good job of separating your voice from background noise, so even in noisy places, your teammates should be able to hear you. Unfortunately, they have pretty high latency for wired headphones, so competitive gamers may notice a little bit of lag.

Where to buy Corsair HS60 PRO gaming headset?
The Corsair HS60 PRO and the original Corsair HS60 look almost the same. The only difference that can be seen is that the padding on the ear cups is a little bit thicker, and the stitching on the headband is now white instead of black. They also come in a yellow version with yellow stitching and a yellow ring around the ear cups. If you want something a little more flashy, the Corsair VOID RGB Elite are wired gaming headphones that look futuristic and have an RGB lighting scheme that you can change.
The Corsair HS60 PRO has the same control scheme as its predecessor, which isn’t very good. The volume is controlled by a scroll wheel, and the mic can be turned on or off by clicking a button. The wheel stops at minimum and maximum, which makes it easier to know what volume you’re at.
The Corsair HS60 PRO headphones aren’t easy to carry around. Like most gaming headphones, they are big and don’t fold up into a smaller size.
Both the Corsair HS60 and the Corsair HS60 PRO are comfortable. The padding on the ear cups is a little bit thicker, which makes them a little bit more comfortable but also makes them feel a little bit tighter on the head. Overall, it’s not that bad, and the headphones still feel good to wear.
