Our Verdict

Corsair HS50

HyperX Cloud Core

The Corsair HS50 are better sounding gaming headphones than the HyperX Cloud Core. They have volume controls and a mic-mute switch which the HyperX is lacking. Their sound quality is also more accurate, especially in the treble range. On the other hand, the HyperX are more comfortable and have a better sounding microphone for online gaming.
