This is a great value of a headset, but for me it is a little tight fitting (as in the clamping action on the head is too much). The sound quality is amazing with the 7.1 activated and the ability to remove the mic is a definite plus.

I bought this for my grandson, and I must say, the headset is pretty awesome. The sound quality is great and is quite loud even when it is on a low setting. The noise cancellation is great as well. I would know because when he has them on and I try to call him, he is oblivious to what is going on. Or is that a con? Anywho, the mic is detachable, so you can use them as standard headphones and it comes with extra ear cushions which are easily interchangeable. All in all, these are some mighty fine heaphones! The only con I can think of is the fact that the wire gets very tangled/intertwined and is a pain to look at and deal with. Other than that, golden!

HyperX Cloud II Wired Gaming Headset

An excellent headset. Sadly, it had the same issue I have with all wired headsets and the wiring at the connection to the headset eventually shorts out and fails due to a focused flex point at that spot. Always but the extended protection for wired headsets. Was light and comfortable enough to wear for 12 to 16 hours without an issue. Great sound and the mic was great. No complaints other than the normal wired connection point issue. But that happens with every wired headset I get within a year so I can't hold that against this headset either. Excellent choice for the price point.

After my last headset (Razor Carcharias) failed due to audio cutout, I researched extensively before settling on these, and I'm glad I did. They have excellent sound quality, flexibility, and features.
I do have one a couple criticisms and concerns, however. The criticism may just be a matter of my sound settings, but I've had a couple of occasions where switching between the headphones and their USB plugin to the speakers and/or the regular audio jack did not complete, leaving me without sound, or sound only in the way that I did not want, and time wasted fiddling with settings or plug swapping to get it going again. I also would have preferred that the regular cable attached to the headset was 2 meters and the USB end was a meter, but I understand the difficulties that might have created with the sound controls. Last, I'm concerned that the attachment of the wire to the headphones is permanent rather than another plug. In my experience, that's where headphones eventually fail no matter the quality of construction. Eventually can be a long time though, so we'll see how long these last.

Very comfortable headphones. I have used many headphone in the past and all of the other ones hurt my head. The hyper X ones feel like a cloud on my head! These are relatively cheap for what you’re getting. Amazing sound quality also! Not a sponsored review

I don't know what to say that hasn't been said in most any youtube review for the headset; but for the money you'd be hard pressed to find a better headset. I will say, for those of us with larger heads it's a little tight, with the bottom of the earcups pushing up on my earlobes, but they're soft enough that I don't really notice after a while. I haven't tried the cloth earcups yet, but the leather ones are great.
There's a firmware update on the hyperx website that adds in PS4 support for the USB controller, although you can use them directly on the ps4 through the gamepad also.
They sound great, they feel great, willing to bet i'm not going to need the warranty I purchased, as they're very solid. A great buy, hands down.

This headset is one of the BEST heasets i have ever owned. It is comfortable, the sound is awesome, the mic i didnt have any issues with, and it was very durable. I have had to finally replace this item and it has set a very high standard for any future headsets i will buy.

I've had issues with previous mics not picking up my voice when I talk because I have a very quiet voice but these seem to have no issue and I can adjust the distance of the mic to help with that. They are also very comfortable and noise cancelling. They were recommended to me by two gamer friends and I too would definitely recommend. I especially like that you can use with the audio jack or usb connection that is included, my pc doesn't recognize mic and audio output in the same connection so I had to limit myself to usb connected headphones but these are capable of both.

I've had mine a little over a year now and I'm absolutely in love with it. I've had very little issues and the cable is so easy to manage. The microphone is okay. When I say okay, I mean for the price your paying and compared to other cheaper ones out there. It's better, but It's not top end, but managable and okay.
The two main points I see to spending this much on a pair of headphones. For one the sound is amazing! So, clear and crisp and two you can wear this thing forever without being bothered by it and it even comes with 2 different types of ear-pads. A leather one and a cloth / vinyl like one. The usb cable is an extension so you don't have to deal with a really annoying long cable all the time.

Surpassed my expectations

I am very cautious when buying peripherals for my gaming set up. So you could understand when I was reluctant when I was looking into HyperX because it's a newer company, and the much lower price tag. However, upon using it I can genuinely say I am mistaken. The quality is by far superior to any headset I've ever owned, discord friends have said I have never sounded clearer, it's incredibly comfortable on the ears. The panel for volume adjustment/mute on the on the wire works great, however I'm not sure if I'll ever use it. It's nice to know it's there. I can't say many negative things about this at all, 9.5/10 worth every penny.

The headset is amazing. Great sound, ease of use, comfortable. But I'm tall, so I have a larger than average head. After just a little bit of time the pressure was too much for me to handle. They ended up giving me a headache. If they were just a little wider, i would have kept these, no question! I ended up going with the Astro A40's. A bit more expensive but worth every penny and super comfortable. Value wise I would say the Kingston's are at the top of the list for a gaming headset in the mid point price range and a must to consider. Turtle beaches don't even compare to the quality of these.

Headset is really one of one. Worth every bit of money. Padding is really comfortable and fitting not to hard on head. Clear loudness and sounds proof perfectly. Almost so sound proof that I almost didn’t hear the burglar break in my house at 2am while streaming warzone on twitch. Id say they do a nifty job. And good quality headset!

Awesome headset. I use this for my Teams meetings and for playing COD on my PS5 early in the morning before my family is awake. Has built-in noise cancelling which helps for the Teams calls and is very comfortable to wear. The detachable microphone is great for taking the headset on the go.

Don't be fooled by Turtle Beach Headphones, these Hyper Clouds are absolutely amazing. It comes with a set of interchangable ear muffs. The microphone is also detachable and it has a long braided chord. The chord is durable and this head set can defintely take a beating.. Sound Quality is better than some $200+ gaming headsets I've bought.
Crisp detail in the sound and voice features. You can use it for music, gaming or even an online course. It's a very adaptive headset. I promise you will not regret it if you purchase it. I've had one for 3 + years and its still going strong! I just wanted a new one so I am going to give my other pair away to a friend.

Great head set for the value. I have spent money on wireless systems and have been greatly disappointed.
Pros: Can be used with multiple systems, 5.1, easy on the ears, boom mic is detachable, great sound, no battery issues due to being corded.. long cord included
Cons: not wireless, boom could be misplaced when detached

Excellent binaural fidelity

I ran the binaural test on this site, and actually went to my door, it was so convincing: https://www.audiocheck.net/soundtests_headphones.php
As far as the surround sound feature goes - I find that natural sound recorded binaurally actually sounds better with the surround sound turned off. While virtual surround sound is better reproduced with it on. I guess this is why they make it easy to toggle the surround sound feature, to quickly choose whichever is better for a given audio source.
All in all, very happy with the comfort and audio quality.
