HyperX - Cloud Mini Wireless Headset for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Chromebook, and Mobile - White/Red

We like to play games together as a family, but no matter what adjustable headset we got, my daughter would constantly have to readjust. We got her this mini for her birthday, and it’s been perfect! The microphone quality is great as well. (Size 1 soccer ball for size reference)

I brought them for my son and he loves them said the sound is great

My 9 year old son enjoys playing some multiplayer games with his friends. In the past, he used my headphones which were just a little too big for him (but they worked). This headset is a reasonably priced one that is the perfect size for him, with lots of versatility. It’s designed to protect young kids’ ears, with a volume restriction (big plus, as I’ve known my son to jack the volume up in headsets). The only minor downside is no USB transmitter, which would have been helpful for connecting to Playstation and PC a bit easier. Of course, you can still use it via 3.5 mm connector. I, and my son, like the design of the headset. It’s plenty light, and the ear cups swivel so you can lay it flat. The microphone can twist out of the way when not in use or when you want to mute your voice chat. As a parent who knows kids can be rough with their devices/toys, etc., I have some concerns about how long it will last before a piece of plastic might break, but that’s all kid dependent. My son takes pride in his headphones and takes great care of them. But, this isn’t unlike any problem you might run into if kids treat things without the proper care, so I can’t knock it. It also probably helps keep the price down. The headband has a nice soft pad that my son tells me is comfortable (it’s too small for my big head). The ear cups are plenty plush and feel similar to the standard (i.e. non-premium) headset. In short, my son reports that they are extremely comfortable. The mic is smartly designed in so much as it’s not too long and can “flip” out of the way. The boom is flexible which allows you to move it closer/further away from the mouth and I think helps with durability (a hard, stiff, microphone might be more prone to break off). Smart design choice in my mind. While I will (sadly) admit that I don’t always think about loud volumes in my son’s ears, I certainly appreciate that HyperX has thought of it and built it into this headset. The volume level stays below 85dB which ensures that kids aren’t listening to too high of volume for a lengthy time. In terms of set up, it’s like any Bluetooth headset that we’ve all grown accustomed to. It pairs quickly and easily by holding the power button to put it in pairing mode. We’ve had no issues connecting it to a PC with Bluetooth, a phone, and Kindle laptop. He’s plugged it into the PS5 controller and it works just fine, but I wish it came with either a 3.5 mm cable (it doesn’t) or a USB dongle. I’m assuming it’s to keep the price down, but honestly my son just plays single player games on PS5 so it hasn’t been an issue for us. It’s really only a minor complaint. My son, who is no audiophile, really enjoys the sound quality. He tells me everything sounds good and offers no complaints when playing games, watching his tablet, or otherwise talking to his friends. In terms of comfort and fit, again, my son says they’re extremely comfortable. Finally, battery life. It’s rated for 25 hours which is plenty for several listening sessions over a number of days. My son, being who he is, charges it almost daily so we’ve never tested the full battery capacity, but even if it gets close to its rated hours, I’m satisfied. Importantly, the battery made it over a long drive to see family - there and back - without needing to be charged. All in all, I think this is a good value proposition. It’s a quality headset with a sharp, but not too over the top design, that’s comfortable for young kids. The limit on volume is a big plus, and while I would consider purchasing it just for my son to use during long road trips, I really like the versatility of what you can use it with (i.e. PS5, Switch, PC, tablets, phones, etc.). One kids headset to rule them all.

I like it it feels hard and not relaxing and I don’t understand it

I've tested many sets of headphones/earbuds.  The criteria for these are quite different. This set it going to my 7 year old grandson.  He's a huge Minecrafter player.  His other grandparents live about 2 hours from their home (we call it 'the farm'). I've taken the trip with him and his brother to 'the farm', while they both play on their tablets almost the entire trip.  The most frequent words spoken by his parents the entire trip are: "Please turn that down".  So not only am I getting these for my grandson, I'm getting them for his parents.  These headphones are downsized for kid size heads. Their is really no way to make a set of headphones that fit kids and adults.  First for kids they need to be lighter and cover smaller ears. BTW it's not a good idea to get kids regular earbuds, most think earbuds are not appropriate until age 10-12, and only if they limit the dB output to 85dB or below.  The same is true for headphones, but headphones can't be inserted too deeply in the ear.  Most pediatricians recommend headphones over earbuds for younger kids. These headphones weigh about 1/2 what my over the ear headphones weigh; they weigh only 4.6oz. They come with a dropdown microphone that is turned off when raised.  The boom of the mic is bendable (not on a solid plastic boom).  And most important they can be used either wired or wireless (BlueTooth).  The headphones will last 25 hours on a single charge. They come with removable wired cable and a USB-A to USB-C charging cable.  To test them I paired them with my iPhone.  I listened to some Boston. It sounded pretty rich.  Bass was subtle and if it turned it all the way up it never got let loud (limited to 85dB), which works.  But they sound nice at that level, bass is largely missing but mids and highs sound good.  The headphones only have two buttons.  On/Off and BT mode/pause.  Pairing worked easily. Hitting the BT button once paired paused and restarted playing music. Time passed, and my grandson opened his headphone package. And without any assistance/instructions paired the headphones with his iPad and resumed his Minecrafters game. After about 30 seconds I got two thumbs up and a high five.  And the little joker quickly added I bet mom and dad like them too.  He used them for about an hour before breakfast.  He thanked me again and said he really likes them.  He wanted to know how often they need to be recharged (kids pick up this tech stuff so quickly).  Now that I have his approval I think I'm going to get his little brother a pair of his own for Christmas, but I'll get the white ones for him.  I feel like this was a total success.
