Corsair HS80 Vs Astro A30 wireless headset comparison
81Here I am comparing the @corsair HS80 and the @astrogaming Astro A30. These are two quite different headsets, but both have their own appeal and I think they're worth putting to the test.
The Corsair HS80 has highlights that include:
- An excellent microphone
- Soft and comfortable ear cushions
- High-res 96KHz/24-bit audio on PC
- But no Bluetooth or 3.5mm connection
The Astro A30 has highlights:
- Multiple connection options with Bluetooth, 2.4GHz and 3.5mm on offer
- Faux leather earcups that offer passive noise cancellation
- Smart phone controls
- Customisable design with external speaker plates
- But it's microphone isn't great
