Strengths:
I have had a variation of corsair void headphones for over 7 years. These are the newest pair I have had, and been using them for 2 years without a single complaint. I have tried other headphones like hyper x cloud 2, SteelSeries arctis 7 wireless etc, and these have been way more reliable, better audio quality, and cheaper as well. I will keep purchasing these headphones even if these break because I know I can trust them. These can be used for competitive fps games as I have, or can be used for productivity comfortably as well. They also are good for listening to music, but no where near professional audio quality.
Weaknesses:
The filter for the mic always gets a hole in it after a couple months but they are cheap, and do not affect the actual performance of the headset. The battery life could be a little better but it isn't the worst.
Additional Comments:
These are a great option for PC gaming at any level or any genre. I cannot speak for console use, but for PC they are 100% Solid!

Strengths:
Attractive design
Weaknesses:
Cheap construction, weak wireless signal
Additional Comments:
After the long life and great experience I had with my previous Void wireless headset, I had high hopes for this one.
What a letdown.
Where the previous one had a metal headband and was solid as a tank, these ones have a cheap plastic one that cracked within a few months of nominal use.
Where the previous one had a strong wireless signal that could reach all but the basement of my home, this one intermittently loses connection when I am seated within 3 feet of the transmitter.
Not going to repeat my mistake and buy another one of these.

Strengths:
Good volume and microphone pickup. Cancels out background noise well.
Weaknesses:
For a wireless headset, I had expected it to work farther away from the dongle than just 5'.
The power cord plugs in to charge pointing straight down. It doesn't take much for the cord to be moved a little bit side to side which the headset sees as being removed and replaced again. Result is the charging cord rubs against your shoulder and you get constant disconnect/reconnect sound and "connection established" message. Impossible to use the headset if your charge gets low and you want to keep talking. Instead of the charger pointing straight down, all they needed to go was give it a 45 degree angle to either the front or the back.
When the software tells you there is an update, you have to install immediately which requires a system reboot; no choice because headset stops working under the current version of software.... Realize there's an update, download/install/reboot, fiddle with software settings to get your functionality back.
Big disappointments in all three areas.
Additional Comments:
I figured this was a safe purchase given I have a Corsair keyboard and mouse already. Clearly the headset is the poorest product of the three.
I gave this a 4 star rating because aside from the weaknesses above, actual performance is quite solid; my mic isn't too soft or too loud and I can easily adjust incoming volume as needed.

Strengths:
Awsome sound work great
Weaknesses:
2 have now stopped communicating with the dongle and are useless now
Additional Comments:
within 2 months dongle quit connecting found out if you have not bought the protection store will not exchange but with help they did once you cannot the put extra protection on it even it it is now brand-new again. so I am thinking memory express does not trust it either the sound is so good compared to my sennheisers that I may try the wired version and just count the wireless phones as a learning curve I would suggest the wireless version as well

Strengths:
Decent sound
ear cups block other sound
comfortable
solid construction
Weaknesses:
no one can hear me
Additional Comments:
I bought these to replace my previous headset on the advice of the kid in the store. I work from home and use them mostly for conference calls and wanted something I could walk around with. They do provide nice clear sound and block out the noises in the room so it's easy to hear what's going on and then have decent range. Unfortunately the mic just does not pick up my voice well enough. I have it cranked as high as it will go and people complain that I'm extremely quiet. I have several other wired headsets and a cheap wireless headset that's not comfortable and have had my coworkers confirm I'm easy to hear with any of those so it looks like I'll be trying a different brand next.

Strengths:
Good sound! loud! Great microphone
Weaknesses:
The wireless bandwith is insanely succeptible to interference, intermittently these will just start crackling for no reason, it absolutely ruins the product.
Please dont take my word for it though, just google Corsair Void Pro Crackling and see for yourself, many many people reporting the issue with no solution, and no support from their customer service.
I wish that MemEx had a better exchange policy, if i had known this would start there is no way I would have bought them.
Additional Comments:
Crackling issues with wireless version, do not buy.
