Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you buy one of this think about getting a headphone DAC/Mixamp.

The headset quality is great. However the microphone on it SUCKS. The slightest motion of the headset would disconnect the microphone.

Poor sound and connection Spend more money and go wireless

People clmplaint all the time about not being able to hear me. I Have been a fan of this model for many years. Its my 3rd set. Something has changed :(

This is the second time purchasing this headset. First time it last for over five years, one of the ear pieces eventually fell off. I got a Corsair, but wasn’t as happy. So now I’m purchasing this bad boy a second time. The comfort for long hours is great, I’ve got glasses too, so that says something. The sound quality delivers, as does the noise canceling features. I can hear the entire in-game environment on my PS5 And none of the audio outside of the game. Highly recommend.

I bought this headset a few months ago because I had read so many good things about it and the reviews are correct, this is one heck of a headset. Pros: -Outstanding sound quality - good deep base, plenty of treble; almost as good as my Astro A40 headset which has the mixamp and is hooked up to a Sound Blaster Z sound card -Easy to set up - no driver needed, just hook it up via USB and you are ready to go; USB sound card is included -Excellent surround sound for a headset -High end build quality, feels better built than my Astro A40 headsets, which cost $150 more -Long, good quality braided cable -Its a wired headset - I have tried and owned plenty of wireless headsets and I now use mostly wired headsets. Wireless is not worth the hassle IMO Cons: -The mic is removable, but you cannot fold it up -Consoles only can do stereo sound, no surround -You cannot practically use it with a sound card, nor does it have an optical connector; USB is really your only option if you want full functionality In summary, you cannot beat this headset for the money. If your budget is around $100, this is the best option available for PC. Period.

First I love this head set. The sound is great. The set is very comfortable. I took away one star because I wanted to switch between X box and PC. You still need the adapter to connect to the X Box. That's my only gripe though. I game for hours on end and they are very comfortable. Maybe not as much base as some seem to want but every thing sounds good.

This review is based off of first impressions only however i believe that these will hold true through time. I was using some old Razer Kraken headphones for a long time however after extended periods of time they would hurt my ears something terrible and recently would even give me sores on my ears. With these my ear makes no contact with the sidewalls of the headphones and feels like it it could be very comfortable for extended periods of time. I'm by no means a professional gamer however i do like to go into competitive matches and the sound quality and directional awareness feels more than adequate for my uses. Overall I feel like these are a major step up from what i have used in the past. The feeling of them in my opinion is similar to the Bose QuietComfort 35 which for me has always been a favorite in music headphones.

HyperX Cloud II Gaming Headset is a great headset, it provides an excellent audio quality especially for gaming. It gives enough noise cancelling for me to not get distracted while playing or for other purposes. The sound card and speakers are great. The headset is really comfortable and durable as well. When I use it, it doesn’t hurt my ear at all and it fits perfectly for most people because it is adjustable. I really like how the mic is detachable. Also, I like how there is a baggy provided because I can store the other parts when I’m not using it. I can use it mostly anywhere there is a usb cord or a headphone jack. It is also easy to carry around since it’s not heavy and not too bulky. According to my friends who I talk to while using the headset, the microphone quality is crystal clear. The one thing I did encounter is that there weren't too many color choices to pick from . Sometimes the wire gets in the way, however that is only because it is a wired headset rather than a bluetooth headset. When it comes to pricing, I think that it was decently priced, not too much, not too cheap. Although there is a problem I noticed, which was the microphone’s structure. I noticed that as I bend the mic, it causes these wrinkles.One thing that stood out to me, is that there is free technical support with a two year warranty which is always helpful if there were to have a problem with the product. Overall I think that this product is really good and definitely worth the price.

I have been through a few Turtle Beach and a few Skull candy with workarounds for better sound trying to find comfort and great sound. This headset is perfect for me. The min I put it on, before I even plugged it in I knew I was in heaven. Such great fit, and soft ear pads. Almost all ambient noise is blocked. The surround sound is amazing on battlefront. Feels real close to 7.1. I'm guessing there are other headsets that offer more bass but this is as good as any I have tried in that department. Not outstanding, but sufficient and the surround more than makes up for any lack of bass. While I can't speak to the durability yet since I have only had this a week, that looks promising too. Lastly, if you are a younger person, or a person with a smaller hat size, this is the one for you. It shrinks down smaller than any of my Turtle Beach ones ever did and made it a perfect fit.

Ordered Cloud II Pro and received the the Cloud II, Not the pro. Contacted Best buy and the send a replacement, the replacement was also CLOUD PRO II NOT the pro I checked the 2 boxes, and both boxes mistakenly have the the same part Number as the PRO. Best buy support personnel we confused but could not understand nor solve the issue, Not even provide some credit for accepting a lower product than the one ordered.

It started off well but the sound quality quickly vanished to where it was difficult for my raid mates to hear me and I couldn't hear them.

Used it to play warzone and comparing them with my almost 10 yr old ps3 sony headset they don't sound as good as my old headset.

For the ease of the readers brain I will put this into a simple pros and cons list. Pros: -Accurate 7.1 Surround Sound -Detachable microphone with decent quality -Comes in 3 colors (Gunmetal Grey is the best) -Very comfortable (despite what other reviews say) -Ability to work in tandem with Razer Cortex Surround Software Cons: -After about 5-6 hours your ears may start to feel a little sore One more thing I wanted to add is that after a couple months of owning the headset the microphone stopped working. I am still not quite sure but it was most definitely product specific. 10/10 Would buy again!

Only used it twice because I’ve been too busy to play my PC. The first time it worked great. The second time it also worked great but randomly just exploded and fell apart. The screws literally shot out of the headset and the speakers snapped off. I did nothing. My gf and I were shocked. Waste of money.

My idea of a perfect headset is one that is lightweight, comfortable, and provides an excellent balance of sound frequencies: not too much treble, not too much bass, etc. This is actually my 2nd headset; my first headset was a Sades A60, which I purchased because they were cheap but claimed to have 7.1 surround sound. Well they didn't; furthermore, they were WAY too big for my head, they weren't lightweight, they weren't flexible, they made my ears feel warm after 30 minutes, and the inside padding wasn't comfortable at all. I started looking around for a headset that would qualify as my idea of a perfect headset, but still under $100 (as I am a college student, I don't have much money in general). That's when I stumbled upon the HyperX Cloud 2. I read numerous reviews, most stating that they were very lightweight (hence the name "Cloud"), very comfortable, and provided a couple of handy extras (which I'll get to in a minute). So I decided to take a risk and trust that the reviews were accurate. To make it easy for you guys, I shall list various pros and cons below. PROS 1. Lightweight. And I don't just mean "not heavy." This headset is so light that I don't even notice it on my head after a few minutes. It does not slow my head movement down whatsoever. 2. Comfortable. The Cloud 2's come with two different types of ear muffs: memory foam leather (which I use) and Velour fabric, which, while they are also comfortable, may itch after a couple of hours. The inside pad (which the ear rubs against) is also very comfortable and also feels like memory foam. My ears do not get warm whatsoever, even if I wear the headset for hours at a time. 3. Sound quality: Some people said in their reviews that in order to get the full 7.1 Surround Sound experience, you need to install some 3rd party software. I didn't have to. I just plugged my headset directly into the motherboard, pushed the "7.1" button, and I could instantly tell the difference in sound. In general, while it is a virtual sound, it definitely helps when playing games such as Call of Duty. The combination of the excellent balance of sound, the virtual surround sound, and the noise isolation allows for excellent sound whoring when necessary. That being said, I would advise to turn off the surround sound when listening to music; it just sounds weird. 4. Compatibility: I mainly use this headset for PC, but apparently it works with Mac, PS4, and Xbox One (an adapter is necessary for the Xbox). In addition, because the volume/microphone/7.1 control module box is independent from the single 3.5mm connector, I am able to use this headset for listening to music on my iPod or phone. CONS 1. Microphone: While the microphone is detachable, and does a fantastic job of cancelling out echos and extra noises that are not your own voice, not everything about this headset can be perfect. The audio quality of the microphone is mediocre at best. It's enough for other to recognize what you're saying, but that's really about it. Even my cheap Sades headset had a better quality microphone than this one. I have a little bit of a lisp, and this microphone seems to enhance the lisp; overall the audio recorded from this microphone isn't crisp at all. Overall though, I can't remove one star rating just because of something that I don't care that much about. The combination of its light weight, how comfortable it is, and the sound quality is why I rate the HyperX Cloud 2 a solid 5/5 stars. I can't imagine a better headset for the price. In the 3 months that I've owned this headset, I have had absolutely no problems with it. I would definitely recommend the HyperX Cloud 2 to anyone who is serious about gaming but doesn't want to spend more than $100.

I bought these 3 years ago and they’re still holding strong. Excellent build quality and the audio range is nice. No artificial bass to muddy up the sound and it’s very clear. The only downside is the 3D audio button. It makes everyone sound terrible, but I have no need for it so I’m very happy with it.

These headphones came highly recommended to purchase. I was skeptical at first being that I have never purchased headphones before, but gave it a go. I was very pleased with them considering there are plenty other headphones that I've been told aren't the greatest for a much more expensive price, so at this price compared to others, it was a steal. I love that I can have the TV on mute (I think you can probably do this for other headphones as well) and you'd still be able to hear all the surround sound actions crystal clear without having to worry about waking people up at night and gaming during those late night sessions!

Design reminds me of my old Turtle Beach Ear Force X3 headset from many years ago, which I loved. The headset is very comfy, good fit, and the mic feels durable. Sound is quite good for a gaming headset, and the mic sounds great as well. I love the inline control, and the 7.1 sounds pretty good for what it is, definitely helps in games. Packing was good, and setup/use was instant. Great buy overall and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good headset, especially for this price.

I'm a starting gamer who has seen the pros and cons of many different headsets on budget. For example some razor kranken and razor blackshark. They were flimsy and easily breakable, but the HyperX Cloud II is comfortable to use, not easy to break. I love using them with the pros on the noise-cancelling which can be bad when people are calling for your name downstairs it works great to mute all the background noses out. The mic is excellent and moveable to what you desire. Definitely if you are looking for a good budget mic and headset I highly recommend it!
