Cloud III S - Wireless Gaming Headset

I haven't detected any hiss/white noise with my pair. I've used them with the ultra low latency wireless dongle and/or Bluetooth on PS5 Pro, iPad Pro, iPhone 17 Pro, Switch 2, Lenovo Legion Go S and wired to the PS Portal. No hiss in any of these situations for me.

I strongly advise against getting the Alphas, less comfortable than the Cloud 3s and I've had nothing but issues with crosstalk/sound bleeding, was an absolute nightmare and I've since then switched to Cloud 3 and they're amazing. Sure they have a slightly flatter sound plane than the Alphas but EQ makes up for it and I barely hear the difference now, mic is also way better.

Dual mode connectivity is fairly common for higher-end gaming headsets, but not too much on budget models. The new HyperX [Cloud III S Wireless](https://hyperx.com/products/hyperx-cloud-iii-s-wireless-gaming-headset) is pretty good (definitely better than a Cloud Flight), but it's a bit past your budget. There's also the SteelSeries [Arctis Nova 5 Wireless](https://steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-nova-5) (as well as the better [Arctis Nova Pro Wireless](https://steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-nova-pro), but that's way past your budget).

HyperX Cloud 3s and I wouldn’t think twice.

HyperX Cloud 3 s wireless. They’re on sale on Amazon right not for like $120 I think. Astro A50x. People will shit on these but I always end up coming back. Feels pretty open, so not as immersive. Audeze Maxwell. if you like heavy things on your head. I don’t think the directional audio in my experience is as good with these than the other two. Nova Pro Elite. If you want to throw $600 at your problem and get sound a little worse than the Maxwells

Have both the cloud 3s and alpha 2. 3s is my vote by a long shot between the two. To me it just sounds better. If the alphas sound is similar to the alpha 2 then the 3s is brighter, and more exciting. Alpha 2 just seems muddy.
