Our Verdict

RUNMUS RGB K1 Gaming Headset

Corsair HS35

The Corsair HS35 and the RUNMUS RGB K1 Gaming Headset are both ordinary budget gaming headsets. The Corsair is a lot more comfortable and reproduces audio more consistently between users, but its microphone doesn't perform as well as that of the RUNMUS, which has a better mic but worse design.
