Corsair HS55 WIRELESS CA-9011280-NA 2.4GHz Bluetooth 24h 266g Carbon

Lightweight Wireless Gaming Headset

The Corsair HS55 WIRELESS is a 266g over-ear headset built for long sessions on PC, PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. It connects through low-latency 2.4GHz wireless with a 50ft range or Bluetooth for mobile use. Battery life reaches 24 hours and recharges in 1.5 hours. Dolby Audio 7.1 surround sound is available on PC and Mac, while PS5 users get Tempest 3D audio support.

Upgrade from Wired or Basic Wireless

This headset replaces tethered headsets and older wireless models that lack multi-platform flexibility or all-day comfort. The jump is worth it when you need simultaneous 2.4GHz and Bluetooth connectivity, a flip-to-mute omni-directional microphone and iCUE software integration for EQ tuning. It is not for buyers who want active noise cancellation or a wired analogue fallback option.

Limits of 2.4GHz and Bluetooth Audio

Wireless audio quality depends on the 2.4GHz band and Bluetooth implementation, which can introduce latency or interference in crowded RF environments. Dolby 7.1 processing works only on PC and Mac via USB, not on consoles or mobile over Bluetooth. The 50mm neodymium drivers deliver a 20Hz to 20kHz response at 32 ohms impedance with 114dB sensitivity, but the headset offers no active noise cancelling for ambient isolation.
