Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT Review

Pros:

• Comfortable and stylish.
• Can connect to multiple devices at once.
• Can control connected devices.
• Great for music.
• Dolby presets are better than iCUE’s presets.

Cons:

• Mic is clear but a lot of plosives and slight distortion.
• Caused slightly sore ears from being up against the plastic.
• Wireless connectivity offers reduced range compared to Bluetooth in our test environment.

KitGuru says: The Corsair Virtuoso RGB wireless XT is a great headset… but for £249.99 we don't feel it offers enough improvements over its predecessor, which can currently be found for £100 less.
