Corsair Void Wireless v2 Review: Dolby Atmos on Bigger Heads

If I’m going to usage a headset regularly, it needs a disposable mode to bespeak that I’m muted. A airy is preferable, but the Corsair’s microphone clicks upward and gives an audible voiceover that lets you cognize the mic is muted oregon unmuted. There’s a premix of dependable prompts and beeps, and I mostly similar beeps to spoken dependable prompts. Language issues aside, a dependable punctual volition ever interrupt immoderate is happening onscreen oregon successful a chat, but yet you’ll ever larn what a definite beeping means. You tin crook disconnected the dependable prompts successful iCUE, but that doesn’t regenerate them with beeping, it conscionable makes them not play astatine all.

I’m gladsome we’ve reached a constituent wherever astir gaming headsets tin tally for mode longer than you could reasonably crippled successful 1 sitting. Of course, I’m unspeakable astatine remembering to complaint my devices, but charging them doubly a week was capable for regular gaming without ever seeing a debased artillery warning. Corsair quotes them astatine 70 hours connected 2.4 GHz, and with the lights connected and regular gaming and video watching, I’d enactment them comfortably supra 45 hours.

The Software

You tin usage the Void Wireless v2 connected PC without an app, but if you privation to usage each of the features you truly request to download iCUE. I already had Corsair’s peripheral absorption bundle connected my instrumentality for my AIO cooler and immoderate of my components, and it picked up the headset close distant without an update.

iCUE is stuffed to the brim with features and app connections, arsenic good arsenic the quality to alteration settings successful a precise granular way, but the interface tin beryllium a small awkward to use, particularly for making much basal changes.

There are 2 carnal buttons connected the broadside of the headphones, 1 of which has a powerfulness awesome connected it. You tin clasp that fastener to crook the headphones connected oregon off, oregon property it erstwhile to power betwixt Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz. It inactive works that mode if you haven’t acceptable up a Bluetooth device, truthful if you property that fastener the audio volition conscionable mute until you property it again. The fastener beneath it is locked to media controls, which is large for rapidly pausing your music, but I uncertainty anyone volition instrumentality these to the gym, truthful I’d alternatively spot that fastener beryllium user-controlled.
