Corsair HS35 v3 review
A very affordable mid-range headset that pulls off everything with aplomb, offering no surprises whether good or bad.
The Corsair HS35 v3 is a mid-range gaming headset that offers solid performance at an affordable price. It features 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity, Bluetooth, and a wired option, along with a detachable microphone and memory foam ear cups. The headset is 10 grams lighter and $10 cheaper than its competitor, the SteelSeries Arctic Nova 3X.
The HS35 v3 boasts 50mm drivers with a frequency response of 20 Hz - 20 kHz, providing clear and immersive sound. Its omnidirectional microphone delivers high-quality audio, even over Bluetooth, though Bluetooth connectivity reduces mic output quality due to its narrower bandwidth. The headset weighs just 250 grams, making it one of the lighter options on the market.
Design-wise, the HS35 v3 prioritizes simplicity and comfort. Its oval-shaped cups and lightweight frame make it comfortable to wear for extended periods, even for larger heads. However, the lack of RGB lighting and onboard controls limits its appeal to gamers who prioritize style and customization.
While the HS35 v3 may not be the most flashy or feature-rich headset on the market, it excels in delivering excellent audio quality and comfort. It is an ideal choice for gamers who prioritize performance and affordability, especially those who need a reliable headset for both gaming and general use.
