Sound Quality Issues
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm not sure if my headphones are defective, but the sound quality on mine was really bad. The bass was the weakest bass I have ever heard and overall, the headphones were really quiet. The headphone band hurt the top of my head and it felt like it was putting a lot of pressure. The only thing okay was the microphone. The headphones I used before was the razer electra v2 and the sound quality was way better. Will not be purchasing from this brand again.

Posted .Hi, Juliannarjones! We'd like to determine if the issue is coming from either the headset or the laptop. Try the following: Does your laptop comes with two separate audio ports, headphone and microphone and are you using the PC extension cable? Can the headset be detected on a different device such as your phone, tablet, or a gaming controller? Let us know what you find with a private message on our social feed. We got you.

These were great but....
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They stopped working after a week. On all platforms the mic was no good. Troubkeshot with Fortnite for hours and never worked. A cheaper pair of turtlebeach recon 700’s worked instantly.

So much feedback on the mic.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used this to talk to my friends in discord and if i turned my volume up past 10% my mic would pick up the audio from the headset. It was terrible.

Poor quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poor quality for a gaming headset, the bands on the side are way too tight. Iguess i should have tried the display ones on my head before purchasing.

Posted .Indeed, we always recommend trying a headset in person before buying, if you have the option! For an alternate recommendation that distributes the clamping force differently, please check out the Cloud Revolver lineup.

Cloud stingers are better!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfort was subpar and the sound was muffled and not clear/crisp like one would expect at this price range. I returned and saved $50 by going with the cloud stingers.

You get what you pay for.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these when i purchased my xbox one x. They are okay but I was hoping for something with better sound quality. I got these because the guy at Best Buy hyped them up.

Could be better
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headset is a decent headset but I may have got a defective model. If I muted myself there was a static noise on my end and the people in my party.

Finally found the perfect headset for me!!!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just to provide some context to my situation. I've been on the hunt for a couple months now, for a wired headset that can seamlessly be used across all 3 gaming platforms (PS4,XBOX and Switch) that still delivers quality sound and still be super comfortable. I owned multiple headsets for each of my consoles and that was just a big pain. Tried two headsets before this one: Turtle Beach Stealth 300- A little uncomfortable after long game sessions and controls were not the easiest to use during gameplay. Astro A10- Super comfortable, decent audio. Just wanted a little more then what it had to offer. I'm pretty biased when it comes to Astro's and Turtle Beach's but I knew that I had to look elsewhere. That's when these Hyper X Cloud Alpha's came my way!! With my budget being around 100 bucks, I was a bit stuck on getting these or the Cloud 2's, but it seemed to me the Alpha's had little bit of a better build and feature lineup. Removable components were a big plus due to me not always wanting to chat while on the Switch. The Alpha's has worked phenomenal on all 3 systems. Extremely comfortable and for the $100 price point the sound caught me off guard. Great highs, very good lows. I've added another favorite brand when it comes to gaming headseats and that would be HyperX!!!

Incredible purchase - tremendous value
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought for an open office environment where lots of virtual meetings take place on camera through zoom, webex, google meet, MS Teams. I have a very large head (size 7 3/4 to size 8). Headphones and ear cups are very comfortable for all day wear, sound quality is excellent, and the microphone provides very clear/crisp audio without picking up external noises/conversations around me. Absolutely love it! I have one at home for gaming and one at the office. Price point was excellent. Tremendous value!
