Q: QuestionThe connection type is Wi-Fi? So if your Wi-Fi is down these are useless?(6 answers)
A: AnswerNo. This actually uses RF (Radio Frequency). You get a dongle with the headset that you plug into your computer, and once it is paired, it is good to go. No wifi neededAnswered by Rook
Q: QuestionCan these be used for Xbox and pc(1 answer)
A: AnswerBecause it uses a USB stick instead of an aux port, if there is a USB port open, it will work. I have used it with my PS5, as well.Answered by JenniferJ
Q: QuestionAre you able to remove the Mic from the headphone?(7 answers)
A: AnswerYou are absolutely able to remove the microphone. It's a 3.5mm jackAnswered by Rook
Q: QuestionDoes this headset have bluetooth?(4 answers)
A: AnswerIt does not. It comes with a dongle for the receiver.Answered by Rook
Q: Questioncan i connect this to my phone/tablet?(1 answer)
A: AnswerNo - Wireless headsets without Bluetooth technology require a USB-dongle to be plugged into the PC or Gaming console they are connected to. As tablets and phones do not have a USB-A port, a wireless headset with a dongle - and not Bluetooth enabled - will not function.Answered by Renew4Me
Q: QuestionCan these be used while they’re plugged in to charge?(1 answer)
A: AnswerYesAnswered by AdrianM
Q: QuestionDo these have a battery indicator?(1 answer)
A: AnswerNot on the physical headset. It does notify charge percentage when you turn them on, and if they are low. You won't find yourself worry too much about battery life, out of the box it held a 50% charge for about 100hrs.Answered by Showoff

INSANE BATTERY LIFE
Coming from the wired version of the same headset, there are several things I noticed going into this one. 1. Better build-quality. While all HyperX products in the Cloud series I've used so far have been well built, this headset really set a new benchmark for me. It's solid, clean, and comfortable. 2. It's lightweight. You know, I never expected a headset that boasts this sort of battery life to be lightweight. I seriously don't know how it can simultaneously be *lighter* feeling than the Cloud Alpha Wired, but still boast equivalent if not better sound quality. 3. The battery life. Oh my god the battery life. If there's any reason that you need to get this thing, it's the battery life. Most manufacturers will make inflated claims about their battery life (it's kind of expected, honestly). But this thing? I've charged it exactly 3 TIMES in the entire time that I've owned it. While the battery is obviously not going to last forever, it's still so unreasonably strong that even in an old, depleted state, I can imagine it out-lasting all of its contemporaries. OVERALL REVIEW: Gorgeous headset, great sound quality, insane battery, 9.8/10. The only thing I wish this had was the ability to connect to a phone without an extra adapter sticking out the side. If it *could* connect to a phone, it would be an easy 10/10 for me.

Hyper x cloud
Excellent pair of wireless headphones that I recently purchased on sale during the holidays from bestbuy. I purchased these because of the wireless feature along with the great battery life. Haven’t had any problems with signal dropping the sound quality is great. Very comfortable if I am wearing them for long periods of time. I also have a pair of wired Astros that I used previously to these just got tired of the wire and having to take the headphones off when going from room to room as well as just taking controller and headphones with me.

Best headphones I've ever owned
I have been using these for about a year now and I must say I have never had a pair of headphones with this sort of battery life, it's insane. I game like 20 hours a week and I only have to charge these things like every few months. They're also pretty comfy, much better than my Arctis 7's. The only reel downside is the hyper ingenuity software for sucks.
