Corsair Virtuoso SE Wireless Gaming 2022 Review (No BS)

How's it going everybody Mango here and today I want to talk about Corsair Virtuoso SE Gaming Wireless Headset. This is Corsair's top of the line wireless headphones and today I want to talk about if they're even worth it (in 2021). These cost 210 bucks on Amazon. And frankly speaking, are you getting $210 worth of headphone? Let's answer that question. Firstly, let's talk.
Today I review the Corsair Virtuoso SE headphones. These have been out on the market for over 2 years now, and today I wanted to answer the question, "Are these wireless gaming headphones worth the $210 price tag on amazon?"

Help me reach 1000 subs!!! Also leave a like :D I’d like to mention 2 points that I didn’t cover in the video: 1. Battery life is around 20 hours 2. These are compatible with consoles

[@sticx180]

Ngl that pool background got my anxiety kicking in HAHA “oh dont drop it” but anyways love the video!!

[@MangoTalksTech]

Haha, that thought didn’t even strike my mind while filming that but 💀 Glad you enjoyed the video, it means a lot 😁

[@aymanarshed]

Informative!!

[@MangoTalksTech]

Glad to help you out :D

[@martinleroux1625]

Great review bud 👍

[@HugoJugoYT]

woow your opinion about this headphones open my eyes thks

[@MangoTalksTech]

Glad it helped you out 😁

[@filipinophreak]

Bought some last night thx..hopefully theyll be good.. new sub.. not for pc for ps5

[@ricardoarzaga4056]

Nice video man, i just bought these and have been struggling trying to get them to work with my astro mixamp. Audio sounds funky and my friends can hear my game though my mic for some reason. Any idea of what’s wrong?

[@MangoTalksTech]

I have never used an Astro mixamp, I would suggest trying to use the headphones purely with the provided usb dongle as that’s how Corsair designed them to be used.

[@thatb01leeroy]

Damn bro your channel is underrated but is the mic on the regular/premium better than the special edition?

[@MangoTalksTech]

I appreciate it! Great question, I haven’t used the regular edition but from what I’ve heard from others the regulars mic is allegedly better sounding than this even in 2021

[@oggy112]

Can any creator give us a comparison between wireless and wired modes for mics?

[@hp1799]

OK, can you help me? I need to leave for rainbow six. Siege to hear. EQ settings. I just got these headset. But the other one for $260. Can you please help me?

[@religion7345]

I understand that the mic on SE version was worse than the regular Virtuoso RGB. So has that been fixed with a software update?

[@MangoTalksTech]

The mic used in this video was with the updated SE firmware!

[@oggy112]

@@MangoTalksTech Can we get a wired vs wireless mic comparison?

[@jaythehybridyt9031]

i got these for $90. probably the best microphone for a wireless set

[@MangoTalksTech]

At $90 these are dope

[@tordb]

Was going to purchase these today, but it looks like they still didn't fix the mic issue. It sounds nasaly and sounds like you have the flu. Bummer.

[@MangoTalksTech]

Glad my review helped you out, it genuinely means a lot to me! As far as the mic goes, yes it’s definitely underwhelming once I heard it on KZbin, while it editing it sounded fine but that’s on me for not listening to the audio on multiple sources. I’d suggest if you’re going for mic quality to try the base version with the plastic ear cups, as from reviews I’ve watched praise it’s mic over the SE model!

[@MILK_T-T]

I just got the virtuoso se and the audio sounds very dead like there is no definition so are these meant for music or what’s the main use?

[@MangoTalksTech]

I agree, they do sound “dead” or flat. To make the headphones sound relatively better use the icue software to eq it (it kind of helps). The main use is for gamers who don’t want cables and don’t really for audio quality. It’s serious trade off. You do get used to the bland audio profile, but it’s mediocre :/

[@MILK_T-T]

@@MangoTalksTech I made them sound amazing

[@MILK_T-T]

Or at least 100x better then before

[@MangoTalksTech]

@@MILK_T-T Nice! What did you do, to make them sound better?

[@MILK_T-T]

@@MangoTalksTech I read the box and it says that the usb is better for sound quality so I have it on sub mode and turned on the 7.1 surround then equalized the audio to my liking when I equalized the audio I turned all sliders down while listening to instrumental and kinda bassy music I used kid Cudi but you could do whoever you’d like to.

[@19Derek82]

Do they work with the ps5?

[@MangoTalksTech]

They should, I never tried it myself though

[@Pork_Chop007]

mic broke on this just now after 3 weeks wtf...how do i return this thing?

[@MangoTalksTech]

From Amazon? Contact support ask them to help you. Be respectful and explain yourself and they’ll hook you up.

[@Pork_Chop007]

@@MangoTalksTech yeah from amazon, and the charge doesn't last 20 hours more like 14, thnx for the help! which support, amazons or corsair?

[@MangoTalksTech]

@@Pork_Chop007 amazons support, if you bought through prime - google how to talk to Amazon support, and if you don’t have prime still contact them and explain to them what’s wrong and that you’d like to return it

[@Pork_Chop007]

@@MangoTalksTech not prime, ok will do thank you

[@stilldre7739]

I got mine for $50

[@MangoTalksTech]

NICEE, thats arguably probably one of the best deals of the decade!
