If I’m going to use a headset regularly, it needs a visible way to indicate that I’m muted. There’s a mix of voice prompts and beeps, and I generally prefer beeps to spoken voice prompts. You can turn off the voice prompts in iCUE, but that doesn’t replace them with beeping, it just makes them not play at all. Of course, I’m terrible at remembering to charge my devices, but charging them twice a week was enough for regular gaming without ever seeing a low battery warning. Corsair quotes them at 70 hours on 2.4 GHz, and with the lights on and regular gaming and video watching, I’d put them comfortably above 45 hours.
