hello good people I'm Dmitry and you know I am always excited about new
wireless peripherals especially gaming headsets to complete my perfect wireless
gaming set and up until now I've been using the cloud flight from HyperX and
this has held my the title of my favorite wireless gaming headset so
let's see if the new courser HS70 can take its spot right after this the new
master liquid ml aia liquid coolers from Coolermaster come in both 120 and 240
millimeter variants now with addressable RGB LEDs both the fans and the pump that
can be controlled via this hub with options to adjust the lighting effects
and speed along with the ability to control them through the respective
motherboard software check out the ML 120 and ML 240 are a iOS down below and
before we begin check out our ultimate wireless gaming headset comparison right
over here it's pretty epic I guarantee it and of course pricing
available for anything in discussed in the video will be linked in the
description all right so this is the wireless HS70 following in the
footsteps of the HS50 that is my favorite budget pair at only $50 that
has this beautiful blend of features build quality sound quality and the age
of 70 carries that momentum forward so from a build quality perspective it's a
sturdy and the no creek design which is awesome you can flex it without hearing
anything moving on the frame we have good size extensions and confident
movement on the ear cups for that slight readjustment on your head and from a
design perspective it's super simple so basically just an all-black body with
this gray thread on the headband that I think is the best-looking one out of the
three models available we have a volume control dial and the mic mute button and
the microUSB port for charging and the power button on the right side so there
is no RGB no glossy plastic sticking out which is I think is a great departure
from their previous course avoid RGB headsets now comfort wise I would say
it's a comfortable pair the clamping force is just balanced but the ear cups
could be slightly thicker to create a better seal but generally the low
profile nature and the lightweight nature of the frame means there are no
pressure points and while it is about 15 grams heavier than the HS50 I have not
experienced any discomfort throughout my two weeks of using
this guy now the one thing I appreciate are the audio cues powering on mic on so
when you mute the microphone or when you enable surround sound surround on it's
awesome to hear that but the most important ones for me has been the auto
shutdown feature so if you round the headset when it's going to sleep you'll
be able to hear that through the headset which is awesome so you're aware that it
is going off and you can turn it back on when you're going to be using it again
and I do like that you can set the amount of minutes after which the
headset will shut off by itself if there is no audio playing which is awesome to
preserve battery life now for connectivity you need to plug in the USB
receiver it will work with the PlayStation as well so that's awesome
and you can also listen to the headset while it is charging which is great now
for wireless range no issues in my space about five to six meters away in my
bedroom with two walls in between no interruptions potentially the signal
quality may drop but I have not experienced any drops which is awesome
now for sound quality I want to compare the HS70 the cloud flight because that
has been my favorite wireless headset so far but the HS70 is built better I
would say it's more durable in the long term because the cloud flight is a bit
more plastic it is lighter which is more comfortable as well but I feel like it's
got more rotating joints and the size extensions don't feel as sturdy as the
HS70 so in that regard I would say you can be a little bit more rough with this
guy then you can with the cloud flight so first the volume output on the HS70
I feel is more powerful versus the cloud flight which is a good thing if you
really like loud music but the definition and the overall clarity of
the sound signature on the cloud flight is better because with the HS70 I
feel like it has a slightly more open sound stage therefore things don't sound
as detailed as a really closed sound stage on the cloud flight and I feel
like that is by design with the HS70 because it's kind of like a semi-open
headset so you can have a bit of sound leakage and you can still hear the
external environment you know the isolation on this headset is not a
hundred percent but the benefit of this semi-open design is the sound imaging
and like this really good directional awareness of your
environment so for example with quake champions this whole verticality of
gameplay is awesome because you can hear a player above you and anticipate his
movement I was able to pinpoint exactly where things were coming from with the
HS70 which is awesome you know you can still hear everything with the cloud
flight as well but with the hsm of these things are slightly more expanded
without sacrificing too much on the detail and which is why the treble on
here is slightly boosted now the bass response on these is kind of Airy and
flat in the default eq profile we do have the bass boost profile that really
does enrich the lower end and makes the whole sound signature a little bit
heavier but because these don't create like a super seal around your ears the
bass response on the cloud flight is better because the seal is also better
and so I would classify the HS70 to be like a technically open sound versus
the cloud flight that is more fun but with a closer soundstage
now as for surround sound it can only be enabled through the actual software you
cannot enable it through the headset itself which I guess is fine you kind of
make up your mind to enable it and just forget about it
and in here I actually don't mind it it does expand the soundstage so everything
feels a bit further away but because of that additional treble you know boost on
the high end you still receive a lot of detail and it doesn't sound too muffled
so surround sound on here is actually pretty decent now from a battery life
perspective I'm pretty happy so they recharge quickly and now and a half to
100% which is awesome and number two they claim 16 hours of battery life so
eight hours and one day eight hours next day then recharge which has been sort of
my experience the only crappy thing is there is no easily accessible battery
life indicator you have to go in the software click settings and only there
there's a tiny little battery % it should be nice it was front and center
so you know exactly how much battery you have left so you don't run out of juice
in the middle of the session alright so what you're hearing now is the
microphone from the HS70 it is quite flexible it is also removable but it has
no windscreen which is kind of unfortunate for this price point
let me just hammer out on some keys these are reds or browns but you know
you can still pick them up it does mute the sound there
a bit of compression it's not as detailed or clear but for wireless
headset I would say it's totally possible and you know you can still hear
me and there's good amount of sensitivity on the microphone so I don't
have to be yelling into it for you to pick up any volume the cloud flight so
this one sounds the same in terms of compression but it has a bit more bass
or the sound is a little bit more full in terms of compression of the actual
switches you let me know which one you think sounds better in terms of
cancelling out those keyboard stuff but this one is a bit more expensive so yes
the microphone here is better and this one also has no windscreen on there so
it will pick up all the breath yeah all right so to conclude the HS70 is an
awesome pair for the price you can pick up the wired version for literally half
the price if Wireless is not a priority for you but these will be replacing my
cloud flights because they have gotten way too loose over time especially the
swivel joints it's great they can sit on your neck but I'm just worried for
longevity of something like the cloud flights because the HS70 is just
built so much better and I would say they would last longer as well and it
will now join my wireless set with the k63 keyboards and the g3 or five mouse
the HS70 is now part of the whole wireless family thanks for watching make
