Yo I totally forgot to use my clips for the Blackshark V2X, such a great headset!! My bad!!
The scammers are back and at it!
fyi I "NEVER" contact winners for giveaways! NEVER! Winners always have to reach out to me! OS don't reply to anyone saying you won. All giveaway winners are announced on the community tab, and that's it!!
Hi Techne, if the winner is outside US I think you may consider have him/her finding the best deal of the headset from their local online retailers (or just restrict it to Amazon stores on his/her country). With this you can pay similar price as it would be bought in US and the international winner can get the prize by just paying the local shipping cost and avoid expensive international shipping. Just a suggestion, if this works for you
Where would you rank the blackshark V2X compared to the other?
@@danielferreira5804 i would say second place
Whats your favorite low ball budget headphones? I got recon 70 as free on side other purchases i made for kiddos, did put them on the test later in evening as a joke and i was suprised, i felt like no 25$ headphones has right to sound this good. I still remember days way back when you bought some thing this cheap it was not good at all.
@@winha1435very true, honestly. I use a 20 pounds plus headset that is not popular but has dependable surround sound yet some people say the audio from 50 pounds headsets from popular companies are bad. Some people just expect too much
My wife left me for the G435. Can't blame her. Lightweight, bluetooth capable, what's not to love?
😂😂
G435 is so bad. Razer is even better or HyperX Cloud
@@mamia06 but still he should still love his wife. Lmao
Plus Dolby Atmos Spacial audio compatible.
So you're worth less than $50????
I loved the HS65 review of yours just like the HS80. It fits my preferences and the mic felt a lot awesome to me compared to other ones.
Thanks for the great video. I felt a bit bad when I was skipping some moments as I noticed the time table names.
love videos like this where we get exposure to so many options in one place
i’ve used hyperx clouds since 2014. i bought a pair of cloud 2s in 2017. like you said it would be nice if there was a volume wheel, mute button etc but otherwise they are a GREAT headset. super comfortable, great sound, and a very solid mic. zero complaints from me
Youre killing it in the headset review market Techne
I really love the Corsair HS65 headset... the superior build quality seems like it would be enough already, but wow!! they sound like they are good in all categories. Love your content as well.
All due respect there’s nothing superior about the build quality of hs65s I’m currently sat with duct tape keeping it together from falling apart down the middle of them cause it kept snapping everytime I take them off and on my head cause they have no flexibility also not to mention I spent £90 on them and they are made outta PLASTIC very misleading comment man!
@@Promithxdid you like the headset for shooting games like cod or fortnite i just bought a pair and i’m worried that i won’t be able to identify footsteps and shit
@@brosnotfunny3893 with the Corsair usb surround sound they come with it sounds like a movie theatre in your ears very loud, boxy and no distinct noise that you can pick out all noises kinda blend in, so what i did I used the hyper x 7.1 surround sound adapter that comes with the hyper x cloud 2s and it’s was perfect I can pick out footsteps from a mile away and every sound has its own noise that I can pick out it didn’t all blend into one, id suggest picking up a hyper x 7.1 adapter to combo with it
@@brosnotfunny3893did u get them and could u hear footsteps
Great video as always! The Corsair Hs65 looked the most appealing to me because they look so premium and seem like a good headset
I'm a huge fan of your vids man
I bought the HS60 surround, blackshark V2X, and finally the kaira X
Jesus man, you're the best describing the sound and the main strong points of each headset, love your Passion
I would love to have those new Corsair HS65 because they are the renewed version of the HS60...the first headset that I bought thanks to you
Greetings from México Techne
Well I just picked up a set of Blacksharks thanks to your videos. (That makes 3 headsets so far I've bought bc of you) *I got the Audeze Penrose (& after modding like yours, they're amazing!!) I also bought the KaIra Pro's PS5, & the Blackshark V2 Pro's should arrive today!* These company's owe you some money imo. I'm getting the VZR Model One's next week thanks to you as well (and I'm so excited about the VZR's!!) *Thank you for your channel Techne!*
Great video as always, if it's possible, it would be nice to have videos about every price range. My favorite one is defenitely the corsair hs65, it just looks so prenium for the price! Right now I have philips xh2r and don't get me wrong, it's amazing, but I had to get a hyperx solocast too so it cost me $300 Cad and I kind of regret not saving myself some money and getting something with a better bang for bucks. I will probably just wait until they break in like 4-5 years.
Great video as usual. The Corsair would be my choice as well at that price point if I wanted wired. Just managed to snag a PS5 so I'm most likely going to get the HS80. Unless of course you have a upcoming review of the new Steelseries Arctis Nova Pros
No script here 😂 stinking cozy Corsair HS65!
Your videos are very informative, keep up the great content I love the unbiased reviews always looking for the notifications of new videos
Exactly when i needed a video about headsets, love your energy man, keep it up!
Hey Bro, this is one of the best comparison videos I've seen. The time and effort you put into this does not go unrecognised. Well done and thank you. Keep the great content coming.
Exactly. This was the video that earned a sub 💯
Haven't watched you your a while but its awesome to see that you still put out quality
Techne making me feel guilty for skipping chapters of the video 💀
Great video Techne! I get the “nerd chills” as you say from the Corsair HS65’s. 😆😎🤙
I love those HS65. Love the shape and the mic.
Overall I would pick Corsair HS65 or the Razer Kaira X, but aesthetically the Logitech headsets are really appealing!
Love your videos, Most entertaining tech channel out there Super Stinkin' Helpful also lol - Could you maybe do a comparison of expensive headsets vs budget headsets and maybe see which budget is up there with the big boys. As for the choice, I would go for the Kaira X because you inspired me to make my next headset the Kaira Pro so would be cool to do my own comparison Techne style
Peace from Scotland 🤘
Finally a budget video!! Nice video btw very detailed love your reviews. I think the hyper x cloud 2 is the best because it has detachable mic and the sound is really good and the best part is 'STINKIN COZY'
I love the Razer Kaira X. The thick and plush cushions on the side just look so comfy.
My current Turtle Beach Headset is broken. So whenever my friends are arguing, it sounds very one-sided.
Great List! I think blackshark v2 x quality price is unbeatable. Logitech g435 very interesting for being wireless, the razer barracuda x is now at 79.
The Corsair HS65 mic sounds amazing, holy cow!
First of all thanks for making this videos, i really watch them all even if i'm not buying nothing at the moment!
I saw a new video and i said "i'm gonna put it while I'm changing the earcups of my HS60" and man, i'm having a REALLY HARD TIME hahaahah. I know here's the HS65 but i think Corsair follow this kind of trend.
For those who like to do some "wicked" customizations, idk if i can recommend the HS65. The Corsair HS series sound is absolutely amazing (i've had the 60 and 70) but if you guys like to change earcups, i've read/seen that the Cloud II are easier to change.
Looking forward to your review on the new arctis nova from steel series. Any idea when you’ll be uploading your review. I won’t buy it until I hear your opinion 😃 you always give great honest reviews. Thankyou
One day, on the open seas, Her [majesty’s] Ship #65 set sail. Their Cors was set and the Air was clear. They traveled at (of course) 65 knots. Everything was going swimmingly until they encountered danger. It was a Kraken with Razer sharp teeth that crisscrossed each other and made Xs of doom when it roared. Although this beast was a formidable foe, the crew of the HS65 vanquished it quickly, opened their sails, and set Cors again for the open Air. Thanks for all the great content and fantastic recommendations!
That time stamp just made my day😂❤
Hey techne I just wanted to say I think your videos are amazing without a great review from you I wouldn’t buy it you have help me buy pretty much my whole setup I think you are awesome I give you love from Australia and one more thing I would love if you could do a review on the new faze clan x ducky keyboard thanks 👍💯❤️👏
always love your video , btw can you do Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Portal review by any chance? tks
Great video. While it's not the new kid on the block, the EPOS GSP300 with a MSRP of $79 is an excellent option. I've been thru a lot of headsets, watched too many of your videos, and settled on this being my favorite headset under $80. (I'm also in love with my Razer Barracuda wireless, but it's above the price point).
28:28 - 28:32 Giggity! Them Red Kaira X things would be cool. Great work as usual.
Love your energy man
i think the one i want the most is the HS65s. they look like the most durable and comfortable headphones i have ever seen. i also really like how you described the sound of them and they have intrigued me. i currently play games with my pair of akg K240s and am worried about sound leakage while playing games when i go to college. i also like the design of the headphones but i would've preferred if the mic was detachable because i already own a mic.
also heres a joke: there were three friends who became stranded on a deserted island and one of them found a magic lamp. the guy rubbed the lamp and out came a genie. the genie then said "thank you for freeing me. as thanks i will grant each one of you 1 wish". the first man said "i wish to go back home". the genie granted his wish the second man also said "i wish to go back home". the genie also granted his wish. the last man said"man i really wish my friends were here". and the genie granted his wish
Can’t wait for the Arctis Nova review!
You need to review Arctis Nova pro wireless. lol but really I do hope you get all 3 versions and check if the xbox version is really the best one to get in terms of overall device compatibility. great video as always by the way!
Corsair hs65, it seems like it has the best sound and mic combination out of these headsets, It also looks the best sitting on your beautiful bald head. Also love the videos, ive been watching for while and they have helped me pick almost every headset I’ve bought. It’s great to have a channel that does such detailed reviews on every headset that comes out.
One crazy youtuber I watched used to go fishing with only his zowie mouse in hand and I was amazed. Unfortunately I later found out it was clickbait... xD. I think the HS65 seems to have the best value in this price range! Love the videos papa Techne! :D
Brooo what’s the guys name
😊
@Techne we are all waiting for your Arctis Nova reviews. Hurry up! 😉
This is one of the best long reviews I've ever watched. The Cloud II's have to be my personal favorite out of all of them. Been watching your reviews ever since and I've bought most of my peripherals cuz you always convince me 😉
man it was so long, lol
@@TheTechne believe it or not it felt like 20 mins 🤣
Thank you Techne. Was waiting for this video. I think am going to like the spicy Corsair HS65 - and not Kraken X (lol Kaira). Don’t have full hair so might be just right. My second pick is Kraken X (lol Kaira). I have V2X right now and is not comforting after 2 hrs of play time. So hoping HS65 does it. Also V2 X sound is just too much. I use discord a lot while gaming so HS65 mic is also awesome.
Yes video was long but love the unscripted versions. So natural. Appreciated it. Also like your creativity in naming the chapters 😂. Can’t skip lol.
Thank you for the video, i bought the Razer Kaira X and the sound is so good for Rainbow Six, just like you said. 😃👍🏻
Awesome content Techne youre killin it.
Which one do you think i should go with? Btw im a console player and just playin single player games but looking for a bit of a quality sound.
Techne I'm with you my bald brotha! The HS 65 is the best of the bunch! I love how detailed and technical you get with your reviews, but most of all the unscripted realness is what keeps me coming back when I'm looking for my next purchase. From one beautiful bald brother to another, keep shining my man!🌟
appreciate ur effort XD I was looking for g435 after 6months to see if they last they only video I saw was them in 2023 literary he took the part from his last video (top 5) and puts it alone
Hey, i probably gonna buy the razer blackshark but i have two questions about it. 1- What would you rank the blackshark v2 x compared to the other headsets in the video? 2- Do you think its worth it to buy the blackshark v2 (80€) or just to buy the v2x (50€)?
Headset and all. Can't wait for your viper mini wireless review when it releases in the next 20 yrs.
Kidding aside, man I really love your content because of the unscripted "nerd" talk. I kinda relate in a lot of ways. I think it shows that you really like the products you're showing.
For me, the corsair hs65 is my pick. Looks so elegant and beautiful. And been hearing a lot of good things about it. Really great for the price!
Keep up the great work Techne! Great content as always 💖
I want to say that my favorite is the HS 65 , however I have the HS 60 now and the software gave me lots of issues so I had to use 3.5 instead of USB. Now I don't know if I should trust in Corsair again 😬
Amazing video Techne really like the way you review your products . Much love from Lima Peru!
I had the corsair hs60, and I think they are amazing headsets, with some comfort and material quality issues, but otherwise, good sound and micro quality. I bought the corsair HS65, and I had a bad experience. All the reviews I see say the headsets sound amazing and one of the best mics ever. I have to say that the audio quality can be good, but the volume that the headsets give is very low, which totally spoils the sound quality. Likewise, the microphone is said to be the best, and I agree that it has quality, but again it has a background noise, which totally spoils the quality of the microphone. Finally, the corsair headsets still have a bug that makes a lot of noise out of nowhere and the solution is to remove the USB. In my opinion this is a very serious error, because it can damage people's hearing and it already happened in the HS60 and they still haven't solved it. Please has anyone had the same experience with the HS65, or were mine broken?
@@jose_andre_pereira mine acted very similar, got a brand new set and the audio sounded like it kept flipping, made fps games unplayable. returning mine while i still can.
Yo that bald head test is make or break!! Those Corsair HS are juicy
Man I kept going thru your videos this week, looking at headsets under 100 bucks, I'm literally about to buy the HS65 rn, then I decided to watch your review of it again, then I saw this video newly upload, watched it, I didn't saw arctis 3 which I'm choosing between HS65, now you just made my mind to go for HS65, hope I get the best out of my damn money. HS65 the best fr, (though I wish mic is detachable/retractable.)
may i know your experience regarding hs65? i am planning to buy them tomorrow
Are you going to be reviewing the new SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pros?
I recommend taking a look at the newest revision of the HyperX Cloud II's made by HP. They aren't as good as the older model made by Kingston that you have there.
Corsairs HS lineup is so good, definitely the best gaming headsets for the money.
i highly suggest you take a look at the Sennheiser HD660 S, i know you prefer closed back over open back headphones, but these are really something else, they have incredible bass for open backs, and the sound is absolutely perfect in every way, though thats personal opinion, another amazing thing with them is the sound imaging, im rarely able to pinpoint stuff ingame with sound alone but these i have zero issue with, ABSOLUTELY worth checking out, even with the price tag.
Any mic I try sounds bad because my PC has some sort of interference in the ports so I’d go with the G335 for the looks and comfort. Great video I was able to watch half of it at least for the most part 😎 hope that’s enough for rent.
The video section messages had me dying 😂
I own both of the Turtle Beaches. Enjoy both of them. I wouldn't mind trying the Corsair.
I really love the HyperX Cloud 2 they look very good quality and very comfortable and I’m a big fornite gamer and I need a nice headset also trying to get a pc so would like to have a nice headset I do also love your videos keep it up man
When I head budget I run to the video
My favourite is the hyper x clouds I’ve had them for over 4 years until they eventually broke on me (kids were a little rough with it) I’d buy one again in a heartbeat it’s price Is an absolute steal as the wireless ones are a little out of my price range and may I say THEY ARE STINKIN COSY!
Just bought my own cloud IIs. Didn't come with a dac but It does have the volume wheel in the cable. Absolutely loving it. Also have a steelseries arctis one for Xbox, the pressure on my head with the steelseries is entertaining though and the cushions are so soft. Not sure what I'll go with next. Maybe another pair of steelseries or corsair.
Speaking of which, I absolutely love the corsair HS65 and HS70.
P.S
My cloud II can remove the 3.5 cable and I can adjust the volume and mute the mic on the volume wheel that's on the cable. Also the mic is detachable too.
I like you because you remind me of Rick Nielsen, the guitar player for the band Cheap Trick. Also, your age may be in the ball park of mine. I was in my late teens in the early 80's.
I think the Corsair HS65 looks like the best deal being a PC gamer.
Thanks for another great video.
Count me in for the giveaway! You are one of the first UA-camrs I refer to when I started barely scratching the surface of the headphones world! It was your video that made me buy the Steelseries Arctis 1 wireless. Then now the Corsair HS70 Bluetooth for the XBOX and connect to my phone simulteanously. I believe you are the only one who pointed the out! Also grabbed some after market pads for me headphones coz I wanted to get that stinkin cozy. 🤣
Corsair HS65 My best. Your alwys so funny and get a good Lagh from your videos and your videos are so well details a pleasure to watch and some out knowing everything you need to know. thanks.
I personaly like the Razer Kaira X. i currently use the razer blacksharks with the USB sound card and i love em.
The time stamps 💀
Man I’m pretty HYPErx about these headsets! The turtle beaches look awesome, but I think I would RAzer have the hyper x cloud 2’s :)
Can you do a review for the new Arctics Nova pro wireless?
Ever since I bought my Virtuoso XTs, I've been dying to try out another Corsair headset so the HS65 would be my pick if I won.
I haven't liked my hair for awhile, so I finally decided to shave it all off and be bald. I'm definitely pleased. I always trusted Techne's comfort recommendations, but I did think that if I go bald, I'll REALLY be able to trust them
I have the Hyperx cloud 2 and Razer Blackshark v2. Use them on ps5 and series X they are amazing!
Yo, Techne, you might want to put (documentary) or something in that video title. just finished that whole thing and man oh man was it expansive!! haha
As far as which is my favorite, those white Razer Kairas look so clean, wish the mic was detachable, but beggars can't be choosers right?
Wow, I saw the 45-minute time stamp and went "whew!", but after some time considering it... I watched it all, all glorious 43 minutes and 7 seconds! For me, out of the list, I'd say the Corsair HS65's are my fav (and the HS80's for bonus pints, lol).
man it was so long, lol!
Man those Corsair put a nice tingle in my wingle
Okay, fine i wont skip. I love the time stamps lol
Are u gonna review the steelseries arctis pro nova??:)
I used to own the Astros A40 loved them but too expensive. When I broke my Astros A40 I bought the HyperX Cloud II for $50 and wow the best headset i've had.
Where are the newly designed A10’s?. those recon 500s are great when they are working, sadly mine are giving out ☹️. Great video as always 👍🏼
Do you plan to review the new Arctis Nova Pro headsets?
My head dent needs the Corsair hs65s. Love the audio from Corsair and they look so sleek. Here's hoping I win.
Any ideas of when we are going to see a video on the new SteelSeries Arctis Nova headsets? I usually base my purchases off of your reviews
very soon ;)
I picked up my razr kaira ps5 on sale for 80, been very happy with it. Still have the recon 200, but couldn't wrap my head around charging a wired headset
I love the Logitech G435. I didn't want to get more than one pair of headphones. I like them so much because, I can use them for my computer and phone. I also love how they are wireless! Now I've just got to save up 😭
Me from EU watching this video from the beginning and hearing those words at the end "shipping US only" aaahhhhh... anyway it was funny how you said only the first time the exact name of the Kaira X 😂 but i like the blackshark v2 overall,great job btw
I love great sound quality, clarity, little bit of oomph from bass but also the band “comfiness” is a major contributor for me as despite having hair, sorry Techne 🧢, I feel the band tension on my head as I’m very sensitive for band pressure on my head especially over time it gets worse for me 😢😡
I'm like the razer black shark style but in overall I like the hs65 , they look like durable, comfortable and mic is best to me.
HEY TECHNE! SteelSeries recently released their new flagship headsets, The "Arctis Nova Pro". Can you consider reviewing them or giving first impressions? I've been using the Arctis Pro's as my main for years. I would like to see if this new lineup is worth the upgrade.
Will you do a review for the new arctis nova pro?
hola, me gustaria el Logitech G435 por la comodidad y el diseño. wrote it in spanish for the lols haha, luv your content, very well explained getting to the point.
I'm a bit of a Corsair fanboy at this point so the hs65 gets my vote. Second place would be the Blackshark v2 because they sound very clean.
I've always had Astros headset now its time to upgrade. I'm intrigued with the kraken v2 x they seem like they would be the perfect headset for me. Its sounds like a kraken idea to get them 😂
I hope I’m not the only on who doesn’t skip 🤣🤣 lol (amazing video btw)
The new Steelseries Nova Pros for Xbox are Insanely sick and loud got them today at best buy!! Iv own Bose QC35 gaming, Corsair Virtuoso rgb, Kaira pro, Turtle Beach 700 Gen 2 Max.
How come you only have 251k subs? Bruh you deserve millions
Why did you do a mic comparision for the blackshark v2 X, but you didn't compare them fully in this round up?
I'm ready to set sail with that stinkin cozy Corsair HS65, time to set ⛵️ baby
G335 for the win xd, my first headset was G432 and love those.
The Techne the new SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is out. Looks amazing and great improvements. But I’ve looked into it and it’s seems like they’ve maybe taken a step back with the sound or at least kept it the same.
Looks like same drivers, but on the old Pro Wireless you had a frequency response of 10Hz-40,000Hz. However, on the the new Nova Wireless it states 10Hz-40,000Hz only when wired and 10Hz-22,000Hz when wireless, plus they’ve increased the impedance to 38ohms. So all that combined makes me think the old Pro Wireless is still much louder, unless they’ve tuned the Nova to accommodate the loss of that frequency.
The rest is all design and software improvements, which looks great. I’m more happy about them introducing a 10 band EQ on the dac instead of the old 5 band EQ.
Looking forward to your review on this.
I really liked the Razer Kaira X, the mic sounded really clean and breathability is a must since I live in Rio de Janeiro. Speaking of, is it a worldwide give away or those 3 countries only? Brazilian regards!
Recently my sister broke into my room and broke my hyper x cloud x that cost me $100 at the time and I can’t really afford a new pair and I’m trying to save up for the black shark v2 x or Corsair hs65. Because they look and sound great.
steelseries released their new headset a couple days ago, cannot wait for the techne review on that bad boy
