We had a chance to review the Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE when it launched and were really impressed with the product, awarding it with an Editor's Choice award. With attractive grown-up looks as well as an impressive 20-hour battery life the headset also included powerful hi-res audio quality. The headset can be used wired via a 3.5mm or USB port and charging uses a USB-C port (USB-A to USB-C cable included).
