Customer Ratings & Reviews

So, this headset is relatively cheap compared to most gaming headsets with this build/audio quality. This is actually my 2nd HyperXCloud headset as my old one that I used for about 3 years HEAVILY for Destiny(Raids, Quests, PVP) had started to give out on one side. I don’t blame the headset at all as I had dropped it a few times on my wood floor and tugged on the wire accidently as well forgetting I had it around my neck. Aside from that, this headset really is amazing. The USB part of the headset that controls mic and headphone volume now works flawlessly with PS4, as this feature was not compatible up until about a year ago. Now with the 7.1 Surround Sound, I’m able to get the jump on other players online as I can hear the most minimal of sounds. Volume also works well when in a party ever since the USB part of the headset became compatible with PS4s. Overall, I’d highly recommend this headset. They’re durable, reliable, have great audio quality/smooth sounding microphone, and are competitively priced.

I got this headset off of a recommendation from my brother. I was in the market for a new headset but did not want to spend more then I needed to. I am an avid gamer so I wanted something comfortable, lightweight, breathable, and above all, had great sound. The Cloud II's have all that for just under $100. Not only that, but they look great in black/red. The leather cups look nice, but I cannot use them because of how hot they get. The plush, on the other hand, are perfect. They breath and still look good. Unfortunately, after about four months the right headphone stopped working. I contacted Kingston and immediately got a replacement set. Literally, within the week I had a new set and they are based in Cali, I am in New Jersey. So excellent product backed by an excellent customer service! What more can you need? My only complaint is that you cannot use the sound card on anything other then PC. I knew this going in so I can't take a star away for that.

Great sounds, good bass, clear no static and louder than I expected at this price point. Make sure to do the firmware update, follow the directions online. This will take any light static you may have heard before hand away. Good surround sound in games, comfy and well built. Man but Music with these are crazy loud and clean with good bass. Down side no EQ controls via USB connection but the built in sound card is worth keeping connected this way. Just adjust your Playback devices Enhancement properties. Loudness Equalization on or off for even higher volumes one way its louder in games, the other is louder or sounds better with music. With the USB this is the only adjustments these really need. If you have a good Mobo with a mid lvl sound solution or a headphone amp dac with good power even better if you don't like using the USB connection. If you ever see The Hyper X Cloud ll under 99$ buy them no questions asked and you will not regret it.

I purchased the Hyper X based on reviews online. Not only on Best Buy, but several other sources. The build quality and feel of this headset is superb. I can also recommend this headset... provisionally. I, unfortunately, had to return the headset as it is too small for my head. The headset did not extend far enough to prevent the ear cup from pulling up on my ears which made it painful to wear for any length of time. Sound quality was excellent, build is solid. So, for people that can wear the one size fits all ball caps, you probably will not have any issues with this headset. If the ball caps are too small at the largest setting... well, try a pair in store if possible to ensure they will fit properly.

The hyperx cloud 2’s are very budget friendly and perform very good. The ear muffs are soft, headset is light, and the 7.1 surround sound is very advantageous. I would recommend to avid gamers, if you want wireless I would suggest astros. 4/5 bought a second time.

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.

These headphones are honestly worth the money. Very crisp very clear audio. Love the fact it has surround sound which a plus. Detachable microphone, sleek yet aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The fact these are also very comfortable don’t wear the ears out and are just so crisp so clear doesn’t distort any audio is amazing. I’d pick these up again for my other PS5 just because I’ve honestly had a great experience with these. Got these on Black Friday a year ago for about 60$! Can’t beat that price point for such high quality headset!

Had these for a couple months now, upgraded from my Turtle Beach XO Four Stealth after my third pair broke on me. Theyre lightweight, really easy on the ears, and comfortable to wear with glasses. The sound is gorgeous, I have a bass booster on it from my previous headset and I love playing PUBG with them (except for when I'm in a red zone lol). Does a good job of cancelling your background noise, I turn on a box fan and piano music when my SO lays down and my friends can't hear it through my headset. The braided cord is always nice too. I'd definitely recommend these for console gaming if that's what you're looking for, my PC isn't up to snuff for gaming so I couldn't tell you about the audio controller and whatnot.

I bought these to replace my Turtle beaches that had broken. The TB's were the second pair I had owned and both had broken headbands, apparently a huge problem. I decided I wanted something a little more reliable and better constructed. The aluminum frame was exactly what I was looking for. it's sturdy and just as light as the plastic bands on the TB's. The sound is great too, offering surround sound. They feel good on the head for long periods of time and you hardly notice they are there. The only complaint I have is that there isn't a volume or mute control on the headset themselves. There is one on the extended pc usb adaptor that is included, however since I'm using them with an XB1, it does me no good.

Solid headset for how much I paid. Overall I spent $200 on a turtle beach and will never do that again. Hyper x has always been good to me. I only changed headset cause they didn’t make a Xbox/PC headset yet. And this works PROPERLY with both. No headaches. Sound 5/5 Comfort 5/5 Price 5/5 Hyper x 5/5

Purchased to enable extended WFH due to Covid-19. My work involves a lot of meetings/calls, so the low quality audio of shouting at my laptop wasn't sustainable (esp with a partner also WFH!), and the cheaper headset I had on hand was painful after only 1 call... so I looked for a comfortable gaming headset - figuring gamers wouldn't put up with bad audio or discomfort for hours - and found this one. I really like the two ear pad options that came with it, and the adjustable boom mic is really nice (some other gaming headsets have a mic that can't be adjusted, goodness why?). The plug in options are also good, including direct audio in and USB options. The top headset pad is good, and the adjustable length works well. Overall comfortable, versatile, and seems of good quality. I've only used for 2 weeks, but seems like it will hold up. Bonus that it has some color to it (in my case, red) and so is easier to find in all the chaos compared to all of the other black-on-black computer gear that manufacturers make. Note that the mic does not come plugged in (again, another nice option that it's removable if not needed), and that you really have to make sure it's plugged all the way into headset for the mic to work. Not difficult, just might need to make sure it's fully seated to work correctly. Only drawback - and it was minor - was that it took a few extra steps (control panel>sound) to get my PC to recognize the headset, but that was easy to do. Also came with a nice quality storage bag, which I didn't expect. I wasn't sure if an ~$80 headset was going to be worth it, but this seems really well put together and well designed.

These things are AMAZING!. I have a very sensitive head. And most headphones with padded head bands end up giving me a headache. These don't. And I think it's because the earcups are so good. They fit perfectly and block out a LOT of outside noise. The sound quality is above average. These aren't super expensive headphones. But it does simulate 7.1 surround pretty well. It also has a really long cord (when used with the external adapter). I also really like the quick connect microphone. Overall, I really like these (hence buying a second pair).

The best wired headphones I’ve owned besides a pair of skull candy ear buds that lasted all through thigh school. Super comfortable ear pads, the speakers are nicely padded and give you a good amount of space before even touching your ears. Wearing glasses was not an issue with them at all. Super quality build, sadly a short 3.5mm cable never did use the 7.1 sound card because it was for pc only but loved the headphones until I decided no more ripping my controller out of my lap or off the desk.

I looked up competitive gaming headsets and this one came up while the cloud 3 came out already I still went with the cloud too and was not disappointed at all. I recommend this or maybe cloud too. Also my astros 50 still work which are at cost of $250.00+ and these that are a little over $100.00 caught me by surprise on how much better they are.

They feel very sturdy and the leather ear cups are surprisingly comfortable. It does come with an additional set of velvet like cups if you prefer. The usb cable provides the 7.1 which gives the cable its length, however if you plan to use these without it buy a wire extension because the standard wire on the headset is very short. Other than that the sound is very clear and loud and the construction is very solid. Overall a very nice pair of headphones.

PROS: Finally! I headset that the 7.1 surround sound does not sound like garbage and annoying. It really brings sound out of games and even music. As of sound quality, it is very good for the price paid. They look good and come with different cups. They are very comfortable and dont hurt my ears or my head like most headphones do. Button controls are convenient and easy to use. Installation was easy as well. CONS: I wish there was real-time voice feedback through the headphones like Turtle beach does, so you can hear yourself talk. I sometimes find myself talking too loud cause of the noise cancellation of these headphones. Bass could be a tad stronger with these. It comes with different cups. But I find that the leather cups get hot and creates sweat around your ears. I dont like that. So I stick with the cloth cups.

I've been completely enamored with this headset the moment I put it on. It covers the ears snugly yet comfortably. I can wear these for hours while wearing glasses and still not feel any discomfort. The volume can go up to an ear piercing level yet still be clean. Surround sound has depth to it and all the aural nuances in games and music shine. Microphone is adjustable and detachable, my voice comes across very well to others. Easily the best headset I've ever owned. Highest recommendation.

I bought this particular set of headphones during the black friday sale for 69.99 (msrp 99.99) and I didn't expect much out of it because I have a pair of Astros at home. I bought this one as a backup, but it turns out the quality is just as good if not better than the Astros I have. I would definitely recommend the Hyper X Cloud II to both serious and casual gamers alike. Pros: -Comfortable ear cases -true 7.1 surround sound -sturdiness and high quality for the price Cons: -Not wireless -Length of the wire needed to connect to device and for full functionality.

I work from home and wear this headset 8 to 10 hours a day, 5 days a week. It's very lightweight and comfortable to wear for extended periods. The sound quality is outstanding and the noise cancellation is better than anything else I've ever owned.

These have been a fantastic product. They're very light which is why I prefer wired headphones, and the quality is fantastic. The only con is the chord is a bit short, but a headphone extender is cheap if not lying around. Great product and a better price.
