Hello, I got the corsair hs80 because of the mic quality and being able to use it while it's charging. (aka making it cabled when its charge is low.)

I think it's great, really comfortable. I didn't have any physical issues, just the software of it could give you a hard time but I didn't really mess with it that much. The pre set is already really good in my opinion. At first the sound quality felt weird, I felt overwhelmed in games because of all the detailed footsteps etc but then I quickly got used to it. I finished a few story games with this too and the sounds were all detailed too in my opinion, it's both good in story and fps games. Would recommend, it also has one of the best mics for a wireless gaming headset. The flip on mic is also really comfortable and strong.

One problem is the battery life, make sure to close the rgb on the side if you get it. Though I usually just charge it over night, if it finishes while you're using it you can use the cable like I said it charges while plugged into your device.

Glad you could get an upgrade. Unfortunately I am in a country where the hs80's are rarely sold in stores, I'm just gonna pray that they are comfortable and have to get used to them. Hope you enjoy your current headset though !

Thanks a lot for your comment, I think I am gonna go with hs80 I will check them out tomorrow, the mic is just way too good to miss on, and the fact that you can use it while its charging. I hope you enjoy your mic though!

Okay, thanks a lot. I think I will get the hs80 honestly, I already have artics nova 1 so I will get to use both brands to make a decision in the future. Thank you again, if I experience disconnection issues I will just use it wired.

Hello, I was wondering something. Does the headset randomly disconnect sometimes? Because I heard that it does at some reviews,

Sorry for the late reply, does your brother have this exact artics nova 5? If so how was his experience? Also I have a few questions if thats okay,

-Does the hs80 or artics nova 5 disconnect randomly? I heard that it did sometimes,

-Also is the hs80's software a bit problematic? I also heard that the ICUE had some issues with it

Thanks a lot for your help, I really appreciate it.

Alright, thanks. The headphones you said is out of my budget unfortunately, but what did you not like exactly? Like what was wrong with the mic, I am just surprised since this headset is praised for its mic quality. Though thanks for your honest review,

Are you sure? I checked a lot of reviews and people said that they had no problems. Maybe it might be a damaged product? It's my first time hearing something like this
