Based on 1 year's data from Feb 25, 2026 How it works
i just have some hyperx cloud2's wired. but use a boom mic when at mydesk....but the softphone software i use is also an app, so i can move calls to the mobile if i want to go and put the kettle on or make a sandwich :-D
Hyper-X Cloud II's or IIIs, wired. Well rounded af, and also great for gaming.
I have been using Cloud IIs for a very long time, and have been in love with them since the beginning. Looking forward to getting a III when mine is finally laid to rest
Me still running hyperX headphones from 2015:
Same, mine got busted after 6/7 years of using it, then when I bought a new headset I didn't go for the cloud lll no, I got the cloud ll again 🤣, I liked it so much, didn't want to take the risk to try the new version of it.
Get the metal hyperx cloud. I’ve had 1 pair each for my pc and Xbox still good as new after 5 years.
from my research- i mostly used reviews sites like reddit vetted-these are a few safe bets: HyperX Cloud II/III just because they’re comfy and you don’t have to fight with software. nothing fancy, just works and the mic is serviceable. the AKG K612 or Sennheiser HD560S. super clean imaging, great for footsteps and they’re not hyped garbage. you’d just need a small dac/amp but even a cheap dongle drives them fine. also the Steelseries arctis wired models are still around and pretty chill. very comfy headband, decent sound and you don’t have to pray the drivers don’t explode
HyperX Cloud III. The wired version probably has a lower latency than the wireless version. My son, who is notorious for being rough on headsets, had a set of Cloud II last for 6 years, and only recently replaced them with the newer model. And the ear pads are a common size for when they wear out.
Two suggestions. One is a pair of Grado SR60i. Second is the only headset I have seen last for my son with the giant melon head, and that's the HyperX Cloud 2 or 3. The microphone is detachable.
For PC headset I’ve had HyperX Cloud IIs for five years
I have a HyperX cloud II that I’ve been using since 2018. but nowadays I would buy some Sennheiser headphones and pair it with stand/arm mic.
