HyperX - Cloud Stinger (Wireless)

I'm using hyperx cloudx stringer wireless. I think they goes for 60 bucks. Had them for a year or year and a half

If you're talking about the Cloud Stingers you can't wrong. They're amazing for the price.

I got a hyperx cloud stinger for 1.3k in shoppee its good

These help tremendously, as I was looking at a few of these myself, so !thanks ! If I can add on, I bought a HyperX cloud stinger wireless before as my boyfriend's sounds pretty good - bought it from the same place, same price, etc etc - and no matter what I did it sounded absolutely abysmal, like I was stuck in a wind tunnel. Charging cord is also extremely short, so if you want to charge and use it you're a bit out of luck. I have Jbl quantum's currently and the sound is good, just one day suddenly the mic stopped working - if you can somehow avoid that happening, they're a good lower tier headset that I found worked pretty well. However they do have in headset controls but i haven't found a problem with them apart from the mic mute button just sometimes not muting.

I use hyperx cloud 2 and i have no issues at all. Just don't get stinger, its not good IMO.

I like jbl gsming headphones but the hyperclouds stingers are really really good for the price. Wireless is the best

I use hyper x wireless for my ps5 and I’m at a 22mm. They’re great, never had a problem

Would go for hyper x cloud wireless, its good sound good mic and not over expensive, arround 100 a 120.

This is definitely the best choice for a 17 year old. I've had nicer headsets, but I come back to the clouds.

Hyperx cloud wireless. Battery lasts for, i kid you not, like 6-10 months. Mic is good. Its comfortable.

I think they're definitely 'good enough'. Especially for wireless.

I have the HyperX Cloud that’s wireless. It’s less expensive than another headsets I bought, but the connection quality is great and it seems to last way longer than any other headset I’ve purchased. The other brands I’ve purchased are Turtle Beach (2) and SteelSeries (2)

I have a blackshark v2 pro and honestly i love it for music, but i am a bass freak, if u don't prefer bass>everything else, then i cannot reccomend blackshark v2 pro. Comfy: 8/10 Wireless distance: 1/10 Battery life: 1/10 Audio quality: 6/10 I have hyperx cloud wireless aswell and i mean, for the right price its a nice backup headset, its not that comfy tho and the sound is at very best meh. Comfy: 5/10 Wireless distance: 8/10 Battery life:10/10 Audio Quality: 4/10 I've not tried ARctis nova pro, but i had the predecessor and if thats anything to go by then it will have great battery life but everything else pretty avg. Never been a fan of Logitech headsets but thats a personal foul i guess. My current everyday headset is Audeze Maxwell followed by HyperX cloud wireless as a backup with blackshark for occasional music listening. It all depends on what you are looking for in a headset tbh, if sound quality & wireless is what you truely want, then there is nothing that beats the Maxwell, it has best sound you can get in any wireless headset/phones, but ofcourse that comes at a higher than avg price for a pair of "gaming headset". Comfy: 10/10 (with third party addons, stock is 1/10 Battery life: 9/10 Wireless distance: 9/10 Audio quality: 9/10 (Personal preference would be more bass) If you do decide to lookup the Maxwell, you NEED to buy third party ear cussions & headband because....yikes. Personal reccomendation would be WC freeze & "ZMF pilot pad headband".

But I think it's audio isn't great. Like good, but not great as you could get.

The wireless one can take any usb-c cable and that length can change on which you use for it and can be used while charging. the non-wireless hyperx 3 has about 4 feet without usb-c dongle cable. the dongle cable is a little over 4 ft and so if you use both the headset attached cable with the dongle cable it goes to around 8 ft or so.

That’s what I have I think. Battery life is great. I don’t care about sound quality because I literally only use it for chat, and for that it’s fine.

I have had the wireless hyperx clouds for like 5 years now. Still going and haven’t died on me. While the audio fidelity may not be the greatest they are probably the best PC headphones I’ve ever had and I feel like I am an audiophile who has used quite a few brands.

loved my astros. especially with the fiber audio. had them for a very long time. i got a wireless pair of hyperx for around $200. those are great too. im never going back to wired. headsets are worth the money, i feel the cheap ones really dont last especially razer

Not with the hyper x’s or most other wireless headsets.

What’s considered a good headset for bf6 lol I thought I’d be ok with my hyperx wireless

Mmx Wireless 200. really can’t go wrong with that. The mic is amazing, sound quality good. Only downside is it’s pretty ugly but who cares Also had the hyperx wireless ones but sent it back because the audio quality is worse than with the mmx and also the hyperx didn’t have Bluetooth. So you couldn’t connect it to a phone or other devices without the dongle

I'll second this, but I also gladly trade a little bit of sound quality for a weeks worth of battery life. Its insane how many hours you can get out of a single charge.

yeah but it's wireless.

Senn 6XX and 58X, Sony XM4, HyperX Clouds, AKG earbuds... IVE TRIED IT ALL, BABY

Hyper x cloud

Just bought my son his 2nd pair and I have one too. Probably tried 10 others over the years and never been as happy as hyper x

ch720n is fine but if you can stretch budget a bit, get a proper gaming headset, 720s are like a mid‑tier for a reason; you'll feel the difference in positional audio. 90% of us are on something like a HyperX or HyperX Cloud, not a budget Sony.

I've had the Hyper Cloud X. The plastic part holding the earphone to the base has broken 2x. The first time they reluctantly replaced the headphones after a month of arguing. The second time they wouldn't. They don't sell the little plastic piece so you have to find a 3d printer to pay for them to be made. Total waste and won't buy their product again.

the hyperX cloud is a good fps headphones and have a decent mic

Yeah that same part has broken on every pair of HyperX Clouds I've owned. I had two pairs that lasted decent length, but then I just opened a new pair like 2 months ago and that piece is already broken again. I used to be a fan but now I'm searching for a new brand.

Hyperx clouds only because of how light they are. I work in music and have an amazing pair of audio technicas and even though they're not SUPER heavy, they really hurt my head during long gaming sessions.

Any stereo headset works well recommend hyperx cloud

I've been using Hyper X for years, I love them

To answer your headset question, I have found the HyperX Cloud headset to be amazing... The battery life is witchcraft - you can go weeks without needing to charge. Decent sound quality as well and everyone online always compliments how clear I sound... HyperX did a great job with those. To everyone else discussing Headsets vs. Headphones: If it's amazing sound quality you seek, you will be disappointed again and again trying Headsets. You want Headphones! While sound quality is a focus for most companies making Headsets, they have Cost of Production to think about when it comes to designing the overall product. Essentially, they have a budget. Since Headsets have voice input and other factors such as compatibility with cross-platform and convenience of Wireless Technology, this budget gets spread thin... You will never find optimal sound quality in Headsets period!

Hyper x cloud 69 dollars one of the cheaper/better headsets I've used

For that price you're looking at hyper x cloud or a cheap set of turtle Beach. Don't expect quality or features, but it will be useable.

Personally, I stopped using "gaming headsets" a while ago. Over the years, I've tried various ones (Razer BlackShark V2, HyperX Cloud (can't remember the exact model), SteelSeries Arctis 7) and concluded that they all have terrible sound quality and are uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. Pretty much the only time I used them was when I needed the mic for voice communication. Outside of that, I've been using an AKG K7xx and Sennheiser HD6xx, both from Massdrop, with an external USB DAC and amplifier - in my case, an O2+ODAC and an SDAC - also both from Massdrop. Both of these work fine both in Linux and Windows. A year ago or so, I got a desk microphone (Elgato Wave:3) for voice communications so I wouldn't have to use the horrible gaming headsets at all anymore. Currently using the Elgato Wave:3 as well as a Fifine AM8 (in two different locations), and both work fine with Linux as well. If I was to personally recommend something, it would be to get a decent headphone, such as Sennheiser HD6xx (or HD650, which is almost the same but probably easier to get if Massdrop isn't currently selling HD6xx) and DAC+amplifier, and a desk microphone for voice communication if needed. It'll be a bit more expensive than a gaming headset, and not wireless, but the difference in comfort and audio quality is massive.

Love my hyper X headset. I recently purchased their gaming earbuds bc I can’t wear a headset for long, I have a scar on my head in the shape and size of a headset basically, and the earbuds are surprisingly awesome! Sure there isn’t a ton of low end but that’s expected. For $20 they’re worth it imo.

My HyperX clouds are hitting upto 9 years. Still work as well as the day I bought them

Same. Knocking on 8+ years no issues at all

tl;dr: Hyper X headsets check the cheap and comfy boxes and have a mic attached to them, but I don’t think most headsets would be anywhere close to what you have now. Depending on what people are looking for in a headset. If someone is insistent on a headset instead of a dedicated headset instead of separate headphones and mic, then I usually steer them towards Sennheiser PC37x or PC38x for a flat sound and build quality. Hyper X for cost, comfort, and features. And Astro for a jack of all trades, master of none kinda headphone (Not really too familiar with their QC since they were acquired by Logitech though). None of these headsets sound exceptional, which is why most users try to steer people towards dedicated mic and headphones if they can. But headsets still have a place and some people just prefer them. The only gaming headset I’ve heard with good imaging is the Sennheiser PC37X and PC38X (also known as the EPOS Game Zero and Game One), but the 490 is still vastly superior in most ways. Imaging in headphones is hard. Whether we like it or not, headphones are stereo. So in the end, it entirely depends on the game engine and devs to determine whether or not they are going to emulate surround sound for headphone users. Some do, some do not. It’s a crapshoot. So most of the time, well imaging headphones are still only accurate on the stereo axis because games don’t simulate 360 audio. One more edit: Headsets that advertise 7.1 are using software emulation too. As I mentioned above, headphones only have stereo channels (L/R). I have NEVER heard an out of engine emulation that sounded good. They all sound bad (except ATMOS, but that’s a whole different can of worms that we won’t get into). Don’t use them.

My favorite is HyperX. The mic quality is good and so is the sound. It's comfy, durable, and both sets I own have lasted me for a really long time. I think my oldest of the two (Cloud) is from 2015 and my other one (Alpha) is about five years old now and it's used daily. I'm not a fan of Razer's headsets. A few of my friends use them and their mic quality seems to be pretty bad, especially for how much you pay for them. It would be more understandable if they were cheap. I've also heard they tend to break pretty easily. My only complaint about the Arctis is the two sets I've used (not sure of the models) made a creaking sound whenever I moved my head and it drove me nuts. One was brand new and the other was lightly used that I borrowed from someone. No idea if that was bad luck or if it's something it's known to do.

Right now I’m solely on Logitech gear. G pro wireless mouse, G915x wireless and G pro X2 headset. I’ve been through a lot of headphones in the last 5 years trying to find some that are comfortable yet still perform decently for shooters (Mainly Tarkov rn) Steel series was hot garbage imo, Just very uncomfortable and audio quality was not that good. My hyper X clouds were okay but flimsy and footsteps weren’t being picked up yet my whole team could hear them. And my razer krakens I had the same issue with you and just straight up hated their software The only 2 gripes I have with the Pro X2 1: the headband isn’t padded enough and tends to hurt the top of my head after an hour or so causing me to kinda shuffle the headset around on my head to relieve the pain 2: The mic mute button is in a dumb spot being right next to the Bluetooth connect button. I go to mute and hit the Bluetooth button instead and lose audio so I’d have to hit it again The only reason I went with all Logitech was so everything ran through the one app and not multiple different apps for all my stuff, I already had the mouse so I just sent it and continued with all their stuff

I've considered those, because I want wireless. Will it be a worthwhile upgrade to my HyperX Cloud that I've had for 10 years? And how does the point about making any audio source wireless work? I play a lot on my PS2 and 1st gen Xbox still.

Plus one for HyperX, although I heard the newer models since they got taken over is not as good.

Had my Clouds since 2021, still work great

I've had a Kingston Hyper X Cloud for my main PC for a decade. They are bullet proof and the most comfortable headset I have ever owned, and I have had many over the years. Just bought a new pair of the same (now owned by HP) for my sim rig, and they are just as comfortable and sound just as good.

Hyperx Cloud has been a very solid choice, not too expensive and the mic ain't bad. I used it for 7 years or so until it broke at the earmuffs.

Nice how’s the cloud s? i used to have the first ever cloud headsets i liked them but the mic was so bad 🤣

I’m using a HyperX Cloud headset, paired with a Turtle Beach PX22 amplifier. I like this setup because I don’t have to think about charging batteries, and it works with all of my consoles, including when I play online with my OG Xbox.

I was gonna say if you have a large head hyper x cloud is the way to go.

By far hyper x clouds

I agree, i have hyperx cloud I and i loved so much and i prefer with cable that i bought another one.

The HyperX Clouds are great and definitely a good buy. I'd recommend looking into IEMs too though before deciding on anything. Granted they won't come with an included microphone, but the audio is way better 

Hyper x cloud, but I'll be honest if you can try it on in store pick the one you felt the most comfortable with. Same as mouses.

At that price, go for the Hyper X

I use hyper x cloud or if I want just bluetooth I use soundcore space a40

HyperX cloud, all the way up to 3 I can attest to them being good headsets as I’ve owned them all at some point.

I had a HyperX CloudS for 4 years, then I switched to the HyperX Cloud Alpha and it is a dream. 300 hour battery life means I can charge it once a month after using it for work and gaming every day.

They can't be that bad, I'd like to say probably half of pros use Logitech headsets. I also have one and it's been the best one yet. Previous ones were all HyperX; Cloud, Cloud 2 and Cloud Revolver S.

Hyperx cloud is good.

For about 100, I found some HyperX cloud on sale for 80 last year. Heck of a steal and they sound awesome

My hyper x is amazing but I also have a cheap headset for noise canceling that’s almost as good . Gaming brand stuff is often a rip off

I had about 3 of them. They are good when they work but eventually they stop working. Mine only lasted a year almost to the dot on all 3.

I completely agree the sound was great never stopped working but my problems was always the mic. It would stop working that and Xbox controller aux ports suck ass!

I used 3 hyper x cloud headsets for years Loved em An they have a metal frame so they're durable and last super long

I'd say any Hyper X cloud , 2,3 and Steal Series Nova 7.

For comfort, insane durability, light/mid weight, detachable mic and wired as well as great value for the money, take a look at the very first hyper x cloud gaming headset. It's dirt cheap. Obviously there are better alternatives, but for the price you get a nice gaming headset you can use for years.

Another vote for the HyperX Cloud series. Good sound quality (for a non music aficionado like me) and actually amazing build quality compared to lots of expensive gamer headsets. No flimsy plastic but solid medal frame. My old HyperX lasted 8 years. Finally, consider going wireless. I resisted a long time but finally got the Cloud Alpha and it truly has 300 hours of battery life. I don’t need to charge it for months and I use it daily for multiple hours (also for work zoom calls so mic quality is actually good).

hyperx is what i use, never had an issue

no not cheap look at the hyperx cloud series of headsets

yup yup! just make sure it has the proper headphone jack an should be good

Maybe I am a bit late on this topic but from what I have heard, the HyperX Cloud series and Logitech Pros are quite good. Or am I wrong and those are not worth mentioning (I am really on the search for new headphones cause the padding on my Hyperx cloud mix are dying)
