Our Verdict
Corsair HS70 Wireless
Corsair HS60 PRO SURROUND
The Corsair HS70 Wireless are better gaming headphones than the Corsair HS60 PRO SURROUND. The HS70 have a wireless connection that offers lower latency than when using the included USB adapter of the PRO. The HS70 also feel a bit more stable and have a better-balanced sound profile that's much more consistent among various users. On the other hand, the wired connection of the PRO means you don't have to worry about your battery dying in the middle of a gaming session. They're also compatible with a wider range of consoles and devices, as you can simply plug them into the controller of most modern consoles.
