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.

I had 3 of these. They always break within 6 months.

The right earcup always fall off the hinge and the material on earpads starts deteriorating after 6 months of daily use. I used to like these headphones but not anymore because build quality is bad. I switched to Sennheiser 660s and a usb mic.

Lol. Same with hypercloud. Why are people getting downvoted for reccommending gear they themselves have a positive experience with? Used mine for over 15 years. Has not skipped a beat. Comfy. I like the sound. Boom cones off if you don’t need it. It’s been fantastic bang for the buck.

I use the “fluffy” pads. (Came with two) still not worn out. Guess they don’t make em like they used to. Nothing has come off yet. But yeah… that would make me buy something else.

I just came here and asked for headset advice not too long ago- I eventually settled on a HyperX and I love it! I went wired because I often got wireless interferance on my old wireless Logitech- I can't believe how much better my sound quality is.

Hyper X cloud headset. Had my originals for 6, almost 7 years. Replaced the ear cups twice. Only reason I moved on is I wanted wireless

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.
