Our Verdict

Creative Sound BlasterX H5

Corsair HS60

The Creative Sound BlasterX H5 are slightly better headphones overall when compare to the Corsair HS60. The Creative Sound are more comfortable than the Corsair. They also have a detachable cable and a more outdoor-friendly design. The Creative Sound are slightly better built, although not by much, but have a much better microphone for voice chat in-game. On the other hand, the Corsair have better balance sound quality overall. They also come with a more customizable app and a USB that allows for surround sound when connected to a PC.
