Corsair's most expensive and luxurious gaming headset, the Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE, offers a couple of upgrades from the "regular" Virtuoso RGB Wireless but also surprisingly falls behind in the microphone department.

Corsair freshly introduced two new gaming headsets, both of them wireless and both of them aiming high in terms of features, performance and, subsequently, the price. The less expensive one is the excellent $180/€180 Virtuoso RGB Wireless. Then there's the "Special Edition" of that headset, dubbed the Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE, which we'll focus on in this review. It costs $30/€30 more and improves upon the "regular" Virtuoso RGB Wireless in a couple of areas, but, surprisingly, not all of them. If you're only interested in what's worse, jump to the Microphone Performance section of this review - that's where you'll find out why I think the less expensive Virtuoso is a better choice for pretty much everyone.
