Say it ahead
In recent years, the peripheral circle is actually a very fast progress, especially in the keyboard, the underlying technical requirements are slightly lower, change the shaft body, keycap color matching can play a lot of tricks to the field, domestic manufacturers have basically "rolled" to the end, but a little technical threshold of audio and mouse field, in fact, relatively speaking, there are few domestic manufacturers to enter the market, the reason for it, I think everyone understands.
Therefore, the high-end products of wireless audio and wireless mice are still firmly controlled by the old manufacturers who are seriously researching and developing, of course, the manufacturers who do not want to make progress in the wireless field are basically cool, yes, I said steel mills.
Today to talk about the same as the traditional giant peripheral factory out of a wireless headset - corsair HS80 RGB, in fact, the previous black version of the hull version, cough, technology is the essence of ....
The outer packaging or the design style of the past two years has not changed much, but it also happens to grow on the aesthetic pain points of this straight man, and it is not tired of looking at it for a long time.
Three selling points of the HS80 RGB are directly marked locally:
Dolby Atmos;
Omnidirectional microphone;
Suspended head beam;
In terms of accessories, it is basically enough:
Instruction manual/warranty card;
Wireless receivers;
Charging cable;
The size of the receiver is relatively large, and the LED indicator is also stuffed into it, of course, the antenna I think is made the larger the surface area, the better, this thing is a strong miracle.
The appearance is the same as the previous "cold robber ship" HS RGB black version, but the white texture is much better, taking off the previous black version of the imitation metal shell, the white version is simply not installed, telling you that this is plastic, and the fingerprint can not be seen on the white material, this wave of color change is high!
The fixing of the head beam is still using the highly acclaimed suspension design, and the detachable Velcro will not be like the traditional metal knot number buckle, which will be permanently worn and locked, and at most the middle strip will be replaced for another 3 years.
And the part that comes into contact with the scalp uses a leather material, and even if the head is oiled, there is no need to worry about staining the suspension headband.
In the connection of the headphones can be seen in the connection of the cables shuttled through it, played a certain role in embellishment, the only thing to worry about is the reliability of this hinge in the end, but after my test, it should be a white worry....
HS80 RGB all the interactive parts are designed on the left ear, presumably in the right ear must do a certain circuit or counterweight design to make the weight of the two ends can be balanced, from the top to the next time is the power switch, infinity audio knob, work indicator, charging port, earcups and headphone body Thickness is basically the same, giving people a sense of visual balance.
And of course, there's the classic //HS80, which is also the way this group of designers like to handle it.
The charging port adopts the most commonly used interface such as Type-C, and basically picks up a data cable at home to complete the charging action.
The hinge of the headset can complete the rotation of 90 °, which is very friendly to students with halterneck needs, but with the existence of this suspension head beam, for students with thick necks, there will be a little tightening.
The microphone switch is cleverly combined with the habit of use, and the swing is muted, and there will be a slight sense of paragraph in the stroke, and after that "node eye" microphone will be muted.
This microphone is actually very exquisite, don't look at only one side of the hole, but this is actually an omnidirectional microphone, with the iCUE driver will be very convenient to use.
The handling at the hinge is very silky and the damping is moderate.
The ear cups are made of fabric, and the weaving method on the inside and outside sides is not the same, providing a different touch when it comes into contact with the skin.
The disassembly method of the earcups is also more creative, in the past, it was fixed by strangling a slot by the elastic elastic band, but the HS80 RGB uses a mechanical snap, and when the earcups are removed and installed, it is like screwing the bottle cap, a light twist is good, clever design.
And the design of the inside of the ear cups is also a careful machine, in order to fit the ergonomics of the ear as closely as possible, a beveled design is used to minimize the pressure on the external auricle, and the details of the nanny level are good.
Having said so much about the design and details, let's talk about the connotation and actual experience.
After powering on, the first reaction is to play the iCUE driver, after all, this is the most complex driver we can play on the PC side, and the various program customizations are simply dazzling. The lighting settings were put in the first place, and all kinds of lighting effects could fully meet my needs.
Microphone settings are also very interesting, in addition to their own volume, there is also a side tone setting position, this function for many people to open the black and your classmates next to you do not have a good microphone, after opening the side tone, the microphone can also receive his voice, buy a headset is equal to two people to use this is.
EQ's various presets are also very powerful, of course, you can also customize it.
HS 80 advanced design can adjust the brightness of the LED, individuals tend to adjust the brightness to the minimum, so that you can save power as much as possible, but also can see the current battery state, you can also pair the USB receiver, in short, you can think of the complex gameplay in the iCUE, only you can not use, there is no he does not support.
This large receiver also supports multi-device access, which means that the pirate ship's large set of peripherals can use only one receiver in the future, so is it possible to save a lot of USB ports.
For headphones, the performance of sound quality is of course the most important factor, using neodymium metal 50mm driver, response frequency between 20Hz and 40kHz, impedance of 32 ohms, in the PC or game console is very easy to drive, and
SLIPSTREAM low-latency wireless connection technology can achieve a low latency of 1ms without loss of sound quality, which is also a major technical threshold for transmitting audio data through 2.4Ghz.
And HS80 supports the native Dolby Atmos, through the Microsoft Store to download the Dolby official APP will automatically recognize HS 80, this hardware and software bound to play or let me shine, as long as Dolby Atmos resident, global audio can enjoy the shock effect of Dolby Atmos, by its partial support for Dolby Atmos games or movies, the experience is unprecedented.
The wearing feeling of the HS80 is significantly different from the traditional non-suspension headphones, and in the HS80, basically all the pressure is poured on the head, and the sides of the ears basically do not feel the pressure.
summary
All in all, the white version of the Corsair HS80 has been optimized on the basis of the original black, and due to the inherent advantages of white, both the texture and the degree of dirt resistance are better.
The suspended headband structure makes the wearing feeling different from the traditional headphones, and it can fit your head very well after adjustment. The fly in the ointment is that the endurance can only be up to 20 hours, which in the current high-end wireless game headset is actually not high, usually with if the lights are turned off will improve a lot of endurance, thanks to slipSTREAM WIRELESS technology and Dolby Atmos blessing, so that HS80 in terms of sound quality performance is remarkable, in all kinds of games and film and television performance is very good, if you have a feeling for this kind of suspension headset, this HS80 is a headset that can accompany for a long time.
