HyperX - Cloud Alpha 2 Wireless Gaming Headset

The Nova pro is honestly junk. Maxwell sounds amazing but lacks some of the features. Fractal Scape is great. So is the cloud III S wireless. (not the III wireless). The cloud alpha 2 wireless also is promising.

Thats kind of hard to say. Because imo yet its worth it as its tuned so much better. An its wireless which is convenient, but the mic is worse.

The Alpha 2 wireless are pretty buggy right now so i cant recommend them. An judging by how the price is dropping they may not be fixing them. Fixed they may be better. But unfixed they are similar.

The software is a mess and its buggy. So I can't recommend them right now. But sound wise when working as it should it wasn't really any better. The driver seems to be the same if not super similar and the housing only seems a touch different. But overall neither sound better than the other (tho that could change with updates).

Just got my HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless 2 and can confirm, like some have said that the sound is a little base heavy/muffled. which I am not very comforted by... I came from a pair of Cloud IIs which were falling apart, and their sound is super crisp and clear, even today. I hope this will get addressed in an update. I also think the volume on wireless(even with their DAC) is very disappointing, very very low... When i plug these in to a real DAC(built in to my motherboard) to operate them passively, the volume goes 3x that of either Bluetooth or the wireless function. Also just plugging it in to any device with a 3.5mm jack sounded louder by a mile. I suspect this is a battery thing? This particularly sucks because I love watching movies from my NVidia Shield as my cinema when I want to be quiet. The sound was good, but I found the Shield sounded even quieter than the standard Bluetooth function. And when I mean quiet, if someone sat next to me and said something, I could hear them. I hope this will get addressed in an update as well.

I don't know, but I bought Hyper X Alpha 2 back in 2018, they're still perfect condition, and I can hear the exact location of a pin dropping across the map.

I second the alpha coud pros . Great headphones

HyperX cloud alpha wireless. Love them but mic is quite shit to be honest. If mic is the only concern you can think of separate microphone. For some 30-40 bucks you can buy a really good one with arm included and use it instead of the headphones built-in

I've been using the cloud alpha wireless for a year. Feel like I get better audio cues when playing CS2. The better lasts a very long time as well. I've been happy with them.

HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless, i have these for a while and the best ones i used in my 20 years of gaming. battery last a loooong time and the headset doesn't get annoying after hours of wearing. Mic quality is the worst on the headset but thats on most headsets, better to buy a stand alone mic if you need mic quality. (which he already got)

Hell yea. I just got the wireless cloud alphas and they are awesome, I would very much recommend them if those ever fail you.

None at all. Only downside is they're a bit pricier than the wired ones, but the comfort, sound quality and everything else is top notch on them

Cloud alpha wireless sound awful, but no wireless headphones that function off of a USB dongle are going to sound good and Bluetooth headphones have too much input lag for gaming unless you're playing single player titles. Arctis Nova are the least bad imo, but I've just given up on wireless headphones for now. I used to call my wireless HyperX headset my tin cans because they sounded like tin cans and the mic quality was worse than my laptop webcam's

I would recommend the Hyperx cloud alpha wireless headset.  I’ve had mine for a month and very happy with them. I’ve tried many headsets wired and wireless and these are my favourite. I did look at the cloud 3 wireless but I read the alphas sound better and they have 300 hour battery life vs the cloud 3 which have 100 hour battery life.
