HyperXHyperX Cloud II – Gaming Headset PC/PS4/PS5, Red

First time owning a HyperX headset, saw other reviews spoke highly of this model, its design is clean and comfortable, the ear cups fit well and the sound quality is excellent. It feels lightweight and not heavy to wear. Friends said my voice sounded clear and no background noise was picked up, the mute button on the left side behind the microphone is well placed. Overall very happy with this purchase, hopefully it holds up as time goes on. The cable length of the headset is very long, almost too long. And the braided cable design makes me slightly concerned about wear and tear on it as time goes on. The read and black colour scheme is very nice.

I’ve been using the HyperX Cloud II for a long time and thought it couldn’t get much better—until I got the HyperX Cloud III. This headset is an absolute upgrade in every way. The angled 53mm drivers deliver noticeably richer and more immersive sound, and the DTS support really enhances the spatial audio, especially for gaming.The memory foam is even more comfortable than before, and I can wear these for hours without any discomfort. The build quality feels rock-solid, just like the Cloud II, but with an even sleeker design. The new 10mm mic is super clear—my teammates immediately noticed the improvement in voice clarity.Connectivity is also super flexible with USB-C, USB-A, and 3.5mm options. Whether I'm using it on my PC, PS5, or Xbox, it works flawlessly.If you're considering upgrading from the Cloud II, do it—the Cloud III is a fantastic headset. I highly recommend it!

I bought this headset to use mainly at work but also for occasional gaming. I struggle with basic work headsets as they don’t have great noise cancellation, plus I liked the white and these looked more comfortable.The sound is really good and noise cancellation works well, although not as good as my AirPods. The mic is excellent quality. My only reason for returning is that they are too bulky for me to wear at work all day, plus people can hear music when I play it at medium volume which I do in between my calls while working. I would have kept them for about £50 but just can’t justify £120 for headset that isn’t perfect for me. If you don’t mind a bulky headset then I’d recommend.

Very comfortable. Good sound quality. Feels high quality and durable and looks great.

Alright, over the years I have experimented with several gaming headsets; but, the HyperX Cloud III? pure beast.Right from the box, it seems opulent. The memory foam headband is really comfortable, the ear cups are rather nice, and the building quality is excellent. The kiss from the chef. During long gaming sessions, I have been wearing this item for hours and it is rather comfortable—no pressure headaches, no ear difficulties, only pure comfort.Let now discuss sound. Regarding the angled 53mm drivers, what else Fantastic clarity. The bass strikes precisely, powerful but not overwhelming; the lows, middle, and highs are all very clear. In FPS games, footsteps? One may find it really easily. Fires? Boost. Books and pictures as well as music Also really good. And the surround sound improves the whole immersion experience using DTS Headphone:X spatial audio.Mic Quality? A+, None of that tinny, robotic noise observed in less expensive headphones; the detachable noise-cancelling mic is quite clear. My colleagues saw right away a difference.✔ DTS surround sound improves the experience ✔ High-quality microphone free of background noise ✔ Superior comfort for extended wear ✔ Immersive sound for gaming and media ✔. Like PC, PS5, and Xbox.😌 Cons:Wired, but the quality offsets that.The HyperX Cloud III is certainly worth the money if you desire a premium, no-frills gaming headset that performs on all fronts. I would buy once again in a pulse. 🎧✨

I bought a pair of the HyperX Cloud II headset, and they were so good, I came back and bought another. The sound is very, very good for the price. I also bought a more expensive headset around the same time by a different manufacturer and I have to say they were nowhere near as good as the HyperX Cloud II. The headset comes with a USB cable and a clip-on soundcard, with separate volume control and separate mic input level. There's also a button to activate the 7.1 virtual surround sound. I should mention that this headset also works without the accompanying USB cable - in that it can be plugged straight into a standard 3.5 mm jack. There's not that much loss of quality by removing the USB connection, but you do then lose the 7.1 virtual surround sound and the volume and input controls, as well as leaving the overall length of the cable much shorter. But it is useful to be able to connect it in a standard way through the 3.5 mm headphone jack. One issue I noticed, was that you need to make sure that the detachable mic "boom" is plugged in all the way - it almost has to click right in, otherwise the mic may not work, or it can even fall off the headset. This mic issue did not affect the overall usefulness of the headset for me, but it might become a problem for someone using it for gaming where more physical movement is involved. Incidentally, I only noticed the difficulty plugging the microphone in all the way with one of the two headsets I bought, so it may be a one-off. Since the boom mic part is fully detachable, for anyone just wanting to use the headset as headphones, then they will work very well for this, without the intrusive mic getting in the way or sticking out. I used one of the pairs I bought purely as headphones - minus the mic part. The sonic quality is incredible and you barely hear any external noises around you. The bass is excellent as well as the general fidelity of the sound. They are comfortable on the ears and I highly recommend the headset. I think they are worth 5 to 10 times the price they actually cost.
