The verdict

The Corsair HS65 Wireless is an extremely similar headset to the HS65 Surround, only it's, you know, wireless. This is a reliable wireless gaming headset at a reasonable price, but nothing about it's sound, design, or features are especially notable. You probably won't be disappointed with it, but neither will you be wowed.
