When looking at the gaming headphone landscape over the past few years Corsair HS80 MAX seems to be a testament to how far headsets have come. Gone are the days of stereo audio, uncomfortable headbands and poor microphones and in their place, a whole new premium breed of gaming headset exists. 

The HS80 MAX Wireless Gaming Headset from manufacturer Corsair are the latest premium headphones to come from the gaming peripheral company. These feature-heavy, premium-feeling headphones aim to take on some of the other premium gaming headsets on the market. Boasting top-of-the-line parts and design features, the HS80 MAX has flexibility in device connectivity, long-lasting battery life and a high-quality microphone to handle all your streaming needs.

While this all seems good on paper the real question is whether it's enough to take you away from the other premium headsets out there. After a couple of weeks of testing, it's time to answer that question. So grab that coffee, kick back and check out our review of the Corsair HS80 MAX Wireless Gaming Headset.

The HS80 MAX are exceptionally well-built. With a reinforced aluminum casing running over the majority of the headphones, the HS80 MAX feel sturdy to the touch. While sturdy to the touch they are also exceptionally comfortable to wear. An adjustable floating headband helps keep the headphones firmly but gently in place while the memory foam earpads allow plenty of room for the arms of glasses to gently rest against your head. 

Speaking of the earpads while comprised of memory foam, each earpad is wrapped with a soft, breathable fabric that, even after a few hours of gaming allow heat to dissipate rather well. The earpads fully enclose the ear meaning you won’t have to worry
