Not usually a fan of wireless headsets since I don't wander around with them on. Have to say these things are comfortable and the battery lasts foreverrrrrrrrr. Had them a week, game all day, haven't had to charge them yet. Removable mic is a bonus too since I have a Rhode. Eventually going to stop with these cheap 'gaming' headsets and invest in a nice pair of sennheiser or beyer dynamics though.

I currently still own Astro A50 Wireless that runs $350 which still works and I use it mainly for Call of Duty titles or Battlefield (when it used to be great). I went ahead to buy the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless gaming headset to replace my other headset that I use for my PC. I used the Cloud Alpha for PC and the PS5. The sound quality is great, I could hear the footsteps sounds in FPS and 3rd person shooter games. Playing games or listening to music sounds great. You can tell the Cloud Alpha is durable unlike the A50 which they feel delicate. Since I own both headsets with different price range. The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is almost close to the Astro A50. Yes you can customize the sound quality the tuning software just like the A50 to match your sound profile. The battery life, it takes a while for it to get low. The A50 has 15 hour battery life. The Cloud Alpha has 300 hour battery life. For 2 days it tells me I have 90% battery life. If you don't want to spend $350, that's fine just get the HyperX Cloud Alpha wireless for $199.99 or on sale for only $149.99 plus Tax. Just get it and you will see what I mean. I've been using this more compared to my A50.

Great sound proofing, extremely comfortable, very durable, had one prior to buying a new one that lasted me 3 years an taken on trips across the country an the world. Highly recommend due to the durability of these and the sound quality is amazing an can't forget about the point of battery life can run non stop for 2 weeks without charge and charge time from 0 to 100 only takes about an hour or so as well. Great price for how much use you can get out of these especially nowadays with the reduction in price from when i bought these in the past for around $300 when they came out. Does not work for console however very well main use is for only PC. Have tried on PS4, PS5, and Xbox consoles which it has connection issues to thise but for PC it works perfectly.

This headset is one of the most comfortable headsets i have ever had. They reduce outside noise effectively sound quality is very good. However, you cannot go too far from the wireless connector.

Best headset I have ever had. The sound quality for gaming is great. The microphone works well - people can hear me well in Discord. I use it for long hours of gaming and it fits me very comfortably. The battery life lasts at least a month between charges!

Sounds great
Comfort is excellent
Microphone is clear (Its not "Crispy", its designed to make your voice clear and audible, not like you have a studio microphone)
USB C is a must and this has it!
Lightweight.
Battery life is next to none.
Only wish this had chatmix dial, and it would have been my #1 headset of all time.

I have a ps5 and I went through my second pair of the pulse headphones that you can buy for the PS5 specifically and decided to shop around a bit, I saw that these were on sale after searching through a sea of headphones. I was so surprised at how amazing the audio quality is, installation was super quick and easy, the battery lasts FOREVER, and the mic is removable too! I highly highly recommend these.

Be warned there are driver issues with Windows 11, the HyperX app will fail to install drivers for these and get stuck. You will need to Google the error text and find a Reddit post where you semi manually install the drivers through Device manager. This is the only way to get DTS:X and the sound equalizer working on these for Windows 11. Other than this software issue these headphones are the real deal, 300 hours of battery life easily. Just insane. The hardware is great but the software isnt. Fortunately you dont have to mess with the software much. I can not recommend these until the software issue is fixed, which as of today 1/29/2023 is not fixed. Minus 1 star for software issues.

Good sound and definitely great on the charge. Was able to wear this for a long time without discomfort and heat. Only issue I have has compared to other wireless headsets is the range. Seems like walls have a big impact on how far you can go from the transmitter.

Great battery life out of the box. Light and comfortable. Sound is good for a gaming headset. The mic is not very isolated so sound suppression is a must.

I love the feel of these. They're really comfortable for long hours of gaming. I use these for games like Hunt Showdown where the smallest sounds mean the biggest things and these really help me to pick up on those little noises. The microphone is fantastic too. It's incredibly clear and doesn't pick up reverb.

Amazing battery life, mic quality, and comfort.
I'd been using a Sony PS2 wireless headset for years, and the battery was finally starting to deteriorate, I wanted something nicer. The MDR like headset was super comfortable, so I wanted something similar, and this HyperX is great. I wouldn't be surprised if this was actually made by Bose, because the fit and feel is very similar to my Quiet Comfort 35s I use on planes and stuff. People I chat and game with say the mic quality is excellent.

"Battery level is at 90 percent." This is what I never get tired of hearing when I press the power button to be reassured with the insanely long battery life this headset grants you that no other headset in the gaming headset market can give you. This headset has great audio just for listening to music and watching movies and also doubles as a wonderful headset for those that work on a computer. This headset is built for comfort and you can wear this for hours without much fatigue. If you're looking for a headset that doesn't break the bank too badly and can go a very very long time between charges this is the perfect and only headset to consider. Every headset in its class is inferior compared to this.

The battery life on this, is insane! I’ve had for over a month now and I’ve only charged it once! I’m a casual gamer and this was perfect!
Great audio as well!

Great 3-D sound and a good quality microphone, and its 300 hours of battery life is fantastic. Good for those who are looking for a long lasting battery life headset with 3D sound, decent quality microphone that is detachable, and great for music listening too
