HyperX - Cloud III S Wireless Gaming Headset

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.

Hello, I purchased a pair of Cloud III S and had this issue that I have been unsuccessful in fixing it. So whenever the headset goes from playing an audio to being silent(pausing a video or someone stops talking), I hear a static for half a second. The static is really sharp and can be painful to my ears at times. I otherwise really liked the headset and assumed I had a defective pair so I replaced it but this new pair has the same issue. I'm now assuming its a compatibility issue with my pc but I am at a lost with how to fix it. I have tried updating my audio drives and installing hyperx's app but neither have helped. Any advice would be greatly appreciated on how to solve this issue.

I also was turned away from wireless thanks to logicrap, on the g933 model, back then I was younger and more clueless about audio but they served my needs/standards perfectly until one day they released a firmware/update that reduced the entire range by 8-10db making even podcasts difficult to hear at MAX volume. Threw it in the trash. I couldn't believe a company like them could exist... However I'm back on team wireless gaming headsets during the holidays thanks to the the hyperx cloud 3 S. They have been really good and have take the lion's share of my computer time.

The new HyperX Wireless III S are a VERY good choice, they’re very well tuned even for audiophile purposes. They also have a mic. Don’t listen to the people recommending Beyerdynamic DT770, that headphone is poorly tuned. It was a decent choice for the price years ago, but there are way better alternatives out there nowadays. The Sennheisers that other people recommended (550, 550S) are also good, but keep in mind that they are wired only and don’t have a built-in microphone. If you want more wired options look into the Fiio FT1 as well, or try IEMs for A LOT less money.

HyperX cloud 3S is the best in class at this price point

HyperX cloud 3s is the only pick at this price range if you want a wireless experience.

If wireless is a must then HyperX cloud 3s wireless hands down. Don’t even bother thinking of any other options in my opinion.

Honestly HyperX Cloud 3S Wireless is good quality and has good features for the price when compared to other “gaming” brands. If that’s your budget then that’s your budget. The fractal design scape is higher quality but we’re talking a $80 USD price difference between the two.

My headphones' left side doesn't work, unless when used with a audio to USB C adaptor with my phone. For whatever reason, it doesn't work with the split headset/microphone one, combined ones, or USB to headset/microphone adaptor. HyperX model number MSIP REM K98 CR I don't remember the regular name. HyperX Cloud Series S or something like that.

How did that go? I bought and tried a Cloud III S based on their recommendation and was shocked at how bad it sounded to me. Idk if thats my fault for having my standards too high for a wireless product but it got a lot of praise from resolve. Maybe where I went wrong was not realizing that the headphone sounds great *for a wireless gaming headset*....sigh, I've been spoiled by IEMs and studio headphones.

Hyper X cloud 3, wireless. Very comfortable, up 120 hours battery time, detachable mic(mic sound is perfect), just bought them and I love them.

No gaming headset is BIFL IMO. That said, I’ve had HuperX Cloud 3 wifi for a while now, and I’m very happy with those, so that might ne a good choice in your budget. The high end SteelSeries ones are also great, though more pricey.
