Not long ago, we have taken a look at a really affordable headset from SteelSeries, the Arctis 1; now it’s CORSAIR’s time to present its most affordable HS-series product, which is the HS35 and can be picked up in three different flavors: CARBON, BLUE, RED, GREEN. The product is shipped inside a medium-sized cardboard enclosure, with the usual color scheme and right on the top area we can learn its compatibility with a wide range of devices (PC/mobile/Xbox One/PS4/Switch), due to its analog Stereo nature. The bottom right corner also signals the Discord certification:
