HyperX Cloud III – Wired Gaming Headset, PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Angled 53mm Drivers, DTS, Memory Foam, Durable Frame, Ultra-Clear 10mm Mic, USB-C, USB-A, 3.5mm – Pink

As a former semi-pro FPS player, and having had gaming as my primary hobby for 40 years, I am really impressed with this headset. It is very, very comfortable and can be worn for long hours without any discomfort. I wear glasses, and often headsets press them into your head and after a while it hurts. This one doesn't do that, it is very comfortable even while wearing glasses. Secondly it looks and feels like a quality product, the brushed aluminium extenders really feel like a good design decision and add to the feel of luxury. The microphone is excellent quality, good enough for online karaoke - and very clear on Discord, WhatsApp, and in game. Sound quality is absolutely perfect for games. You can easily hear where your enemies are coming from in FPS games and RPGs and the closed cup makes it very immersive. They have a lot more mid and top range, not as much bass, so I wouldn't necessarily recommend these for listening to music, but for gaming they are very, very good. Great value, quality product. Very happy.

This is truly a great gaming headset. As someone that's used audiophile and studio grade headphones, this headset is very close in terms of sound quality for what you want in gaming. Picking out footsteps in a shooter is a breeze with these. The build quality feels great and is very comfortable to wear for many hours at a time. The mic is tuned perfectly for anyone on party chats or discord to hear you clearly. You can also hear them clearly too. It works for pretty much anything PS5, PC etc. and they even give you an external USB soundcard so you get a clear noise free signal instead of the motherboard's built in audio. I cannot recommend this headset enough, they look, feel and sound great!

Honestly, these are solid headphones. The sound is crisp, voices come through clean, and the bass has enough punch without feeling like it’s drowning everything out. I’ve been using them mostly for mobile gaming and they do the job really well — BUT heads up, if your phone doesn’t have a headphone jack (which most don’t these days), you’ll need an adapter. That’s a little annoying, but once you’re set up, the comfort and audio quality make up for it. The build feels premium — sturdy frame, nice padding, and they don’t squeeze your head like a vice. The mic is surprisingly clear too, way better than the random Bluetooth earbuds I was using before. Price-wise, yeah, they’re a bit on the higher end compared to average headsets. If you’re just looking for something casual, these might feel expensive. But if you care about good quality and long sessions without ear pain, they’re worth it.

I bought this to replace a wireless Logitech G935 that was starting to disintigrate and wow what a difference. I went wired with this headset because I had lag and wireless interferance with the wireless headset. This HyperX has amazing sound quality - I've tested it with music, movies, games, and discord chat and I can't believe the upgrade in sound quality I've gotten. Going wired over wireless so far has been a great call- I don't really miss the benefit of being wireless and no longer have to deal with lag or interferance. Also the HyperX is super comfortable- I used to get sore pinched ears wearing the Logitech but these are so soft and fit so well around my ears. The HyperX is also lighter and fits the shape of my head better. I really wanted the Pink and White headset but I wasn't willing to spend another £35 pounds for it- I have to say even though red/black isn't my favorite color combo this headset looks nice. It's sleek, well made with quality materials and all the cables are very nice and long with quality nylon wrappings. Overall I am *very* happy with this purchase and wish I'd made the change sooner.

It's been about 4-5 years and I've finally upgraded from these, even then I can still respect the bass and sound quality out of these, for "gaming" headphones these really set the standard that few companies meet even now. The comfort and the way it cups your ears. These are a very comfortable, very great sounding and all round amazing set of headphones, and the microphone is decent enough to use out of the box.

I use these for gaming and i must say the quality is excellent and well worth the buy. The vouce is extremely clear and perfect for those who love gaming especially pubg

I’ve been using the HyperX Cloud II for many months now, mostly for gaming on my PC and PS4, and it’s honestly one of the best headsets I’ve owned in this price range. The sound quality is excellent—really clear with solid bass, and the 53mm drivers definitely deliver when it comes to hearing footsteps or subtle in-game sounds. The virtual 7.1 surround sound is a nice bonus, especially for more immersive games or when playing FPS titles where positional audio matters. Comfort-wise, these are top-notch. I can wear them for hours without any discomfort. The ear cushions are super soft, and the headband doesn’t press down too hard like some other headsets I’ve tried. They also feel well-built—not cheap or flimsy at all. The detachable mic is a nice touch too, and my friends say my voice comes through loud and clear. Also worth noting: they work right out of the box with no complicated setup. I’ve used them with my laptop and even my phone (with an adapter), and everything works smoothly. All in all, the Cloud II hits a sweet spot between performance, comfort, and price. If you’re looking for a reliable headset that just works and sounds great doing it, this one’s a solid choice.

Watch the video review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_bcYkBeT9o Welcome to my review of a very popular headset, the HyperX Cloud 2 Gaming Headset. This is regarded as one of the best if not the best headset that you can get on the market. So I decided to get the headset to see if it really is that good. Diving straight in, the best place to start is with the design. There is a selection of color options that you can choose from. My one is the red and black one, and it looks really dope. Starting off at the top you see the HyperX logo sewn into the headband and a nice red accent from the stitches. The headband itself is extremely light and flexible. When I’m using the headset I really can’t feel it which is great. Going on further there is the HyperX and Kingston logo and labels for the left and right ear cup. There is a wire on both earcups connecting the headband to the actual earcups and I personally don’t mind the wire but I know that some people might hate it or love it. The headset can be adjusted easily on the sides to fit pretty much any shaped head whether it be big or small. The hinges holding the earcups to the headband are metal and have a nice brushed aluminum finish. The sides of the earcups have the HyperX logo and also have a brushed aluminum finish. The rest of the earcups have a pleasing soft touch matte finish. The padding on the earcups can be switched out with the spare ones that come in the box. The default pair has a leather feel to it while the second pair are velour earcups which I like more since it doesn’t isolate the background as much and I think they are much more comfortable. The insides of the earcups are padded which is a great thing since headphones without this causes a great discomfort to some users. Going down there is one braided cable on the left earcup leading out of the headset and then we have what could be my favorite part of the headset. The detachable microphone. There is a little flap that covers the port and so as not too loose it I kept it in the box and I’m happy that it’s not stuck to the headset. The mic can be easily plugged in and when it’s in the microphone is flush with the headset. It literally looks like it is built in. I have to give props to HyperX since they really did do a good job on this design. It’s always good to have a detachable microphone since if it breaks you can pick up a replacement for a low price and if you just want to listen to audio in public then you can and you don’t have to stand out. If you have been doing research about this headset then you know that there is the old model which is £10-20 cheaper. So what are you paying and extra £10-20 for. This right here is the USB sound dongle that you get for that extra £10-20. The main feature that this dongle allows is to have 7.1 surround sound. At the click of a button in the middle you can turn on and off the surround sound experience. This is really nice to have since listening to music and playing games is much better because you feel like you’re inside of the song or game. When you are playing it’s so much easier to pinpoint if someone is behind you to the left or to the right. The surround sound experience on this headset is a win. Taking a closer look at the dongle on one end you have a USB to plug into your PC and on the other an input jack for plugging in your headphones. This USB dongle is Plug and Play so there is no driver software. The HyperX logo has a red led which looks great and the 7.1 logo is lit up when turned on. You have options to control your headset and microphone volume with a click of a button. The buttons are very clicky which is nice. On the side you have a mic mute switch which I don’t like the positioning of since I have to look at the dongle to find it. I would much rather prefer a button on the front of the dongle. And on the back of the dongle there is a clip so that you can clip it to your shirt if you find that the dongle is moving around to much. The dongle is really quite light and I would 100% recommend people to get this version because the $20 is worth it. The braided cable on the headset is going to be long enough for pretty much anybody to route behind the computer if needed. The headset comes with one more thing that I definitely wasn’t expecting. It comes with this carrying bag which I would never use but it’s good to have for people that like to travel a lot. The bag really isn’t anything special but it’ll have to do. Now overall this headset I think is really good. At first I’d say it wasn’t that comfortable but after getting used to it is very pleasant. The headsets design is probably my favourite out there. The microphone is decent. And the star of the show the USB dongle which gives you that surround sound experience and great audio overall is the main reason why I enjoy it and I would recommend it to anybody looking for a great headset because this will not disappoint. To sum it up it looks good, it feels good and it sounds good. If this review helped you out the leave a helpful vote and subscribe to my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/MrYTMonkey
