Customer Ratings & Reviews

Coming from Astro a50s to these, I must say I prefer these! From a gaming perspective, these things are perfect. The sounds are clear and I can easily tell where footsteps are coming from. They are also comfortable to wear for longer periods and have interchangeable earcups depending on your preference.

These are great headphones. My only complaint is that they slide off my head if I look up or down too far. Very comfortable and durable. I broke a cheaper pair before buying these. They are more than I wanted to spend. The salesman said these are the ones he had he loved them.

I was debating between these, and two other headsets, but the reviews helped out with going with these instead. I was deeply surprised with how the sound quality was, and my voice sounded a lot better on my consoles and PC, whether streaming, playing co-op games, or if I was on a chat in Skype or Discord. The only drawback to these, that I can see, is adjusting the settings for each program (Discord, certain games, etc) when it came to vocal chat; this is due to the USB dongle that comes with the headset. If you connect this to your PC without the dongle, then you can adjust the quality through the system itself. If you use the dongle, then the dongle takes control, and you will have to mess with the settings for each program that will require a headset & mic for use. Despite that setback, it's not enough to take a star off of it. This is still worth every penny, in my opinion. The fact that I can use this on my consoles, as well as my PC, was what sold me to begin with. I don't regret this purchase.

I have had this Headset for a couple of months now and it works great. I have had to unplug it and plug it back in from time to time to resolve a conflict (I think it is with my keyboard; Tt Poseidon Forged). However, this is not a problem to me. I have worn the headset multiple time pushing upwards of 10 hours and no headaches or sore spots. The mic is a little finicky on placement, but the in-line mic control helps. The wire is plenty long, a little too long if you use a front side USB port. The clip on the in-line controls is a nice touch. All in all I give it a 9/10. Only cons I have found is sweaty ears on a warm day and they dampen all outside sounds almost as much as rifle muffs (i like to watch tv while gaming).

I use this for my Xbox one S and it's great. It doesn't have a lot of bass though but you can hear sounds you don't normally hear. Noise cancelling microphone is also a great feature to have and is probably the selling point of this headset.

I've tried headset after headset, some all the way up to the $300+ range. I've tried many different brands, including the more expensive Hyper X headsets and while the Cloud 2 isn't perfect, it provides a better all around in game sound than anything else I've tried. I love it. I've been using it for almost 4 years now. Every once in a while I'll go out and try a new flavor of the month expensive headset, only to be let down and then I go back to my wonderful Cloud 2's. Hyper X, the only thing most of us want, is the same exact in game sound quality with that booming base and full sound, but with better mic quality that pics up your voice a little easier, and to sound clearer to others when we speak. I'd gladly pay $200 or more plus. All the other HyperX headsets I've tried (5 or more) have all been more expensive than the Cloud 2's but they just don't nail that in game sound quality the 2's do.

It’s not an audiophile’s headset, but for gaming, it hits the target. Good sound coming from different directions helps in FPS games. I made in-game adjustments to get excellent sound to pinpoint direction and distance from targets. Definitely a step up from the original Cloud headset. It’s comfortable with the leatherette cushions. The fabric cushions breath, but make the area around my ear itch after long use.

one of the best gaming headsets on the market so comfortable and great sound

It may be user error, but the input of a single jack does not seem to enable the microphone on a Lenovo gaming computer (that is less than two years old). The single jack can go into either the headphone or the mic input, but not both. I am aware of dual purpose jacks and inputs. It appears that the same brand computer, made at around the same time as the headphones, lacks that feature and adapter wires were not included with the unit. If it turns out that the user is incorrect (it's not me), I will return to revise this review. All that said, we listened to the phones and the quality is pretty good. The padded ear pieces are replaceable with a second set (included) and the padded head piece seems sturdy and comfortable. I hoped for a removeable and replaceable wire (they break a lot under the stress of hyperactive gamers). No such luck. As a close look at the illustration shows, it's integrated with the ear piece. Meanwhile, all in all, a good headset.

My first headphones and I am very impressed. Easy to use, great sound quality and very comfortable even for long periods of time. I find myself missing them when I don't need to wear them. I use them on countless Zoom calls each day. A+++++

I returned a different headset as friends complained they could hear themselves echoing my that one and an employee helped me pick this one. I am blown away by the comfort and sound of these. I am using them on the Xbox One and while they aren't surround sound on the Xbox, they are still awesome.

My favorite headset I have ever owned. Owned the first one for four years. Feels great sounds great

This headphone set is really good not only because of the sound and build quality but also because the headphones are very affordable and at a very good price compared to others with same or even less sound quality. The mic is removable which is a plus for me. Personally, the platinum headset of Playstation sounds way better but, is almost double the price as well.

These headphones are fantastic. Super comfortable with two different pad styles. I use these for both gaming and for music off of my s8. The build quality is top notch and I expect these to last for years. The removable microphone was a big sales point. And it works exactly as designed.

This is a good headset. Its comfortable, the mic quality is passable though nothing to praise. It sounds fine, and overall I enjoy using it. I wish the cable was fully detachable & replaceable from the headset though.

It is the best wired headphone I ever had so far. The music is so fluent, very amazing to hear. I like the experience of having them so much. I attend zoom in the same room with my brother, but I don’t have to worry from the background noise and I feel like I am in a real classroom. Plus the microphone it is very awesome for gaming, before my friends could hardly hear me through my old microphone but now it is as clear as we’re in the same room. Also you can use the microphone in many of your other devices like your phone. It is pretty good if you want to interview any of your friends or household member.

So I was in the market looking for good headphones for my gaming rig, and mud you I have not used headphone in a long time since it's been years since i owned one. So I stumbled upon this pair of headphones from HyperX. Read the reviews about it and people were mostly positive about this product. So I gave it a shot and decided to purchase one for myself. Bot wasn't I disappointed. It truly is a good pair of headphones. I didn't mind that it was wired and the surround 7.1 sound system that comes with it makes it a dream while listening to music and playing games, flight simulator in my case. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for wired headsets. I did get to test the attached mic that comes with it and the sound quality is more than sufficient for gaming online and even streaming of you're into that.

love this headset lightweight and simple setup. I like how it comes with different size ear piece that you can switch out.

This is the best sounding and most comfortable headset you will find at this price point. Usually they are $99. If they are ever cheaper they are a super amazing deal. Even at $99 this is the best purchase I ever made. Used for hundreds of hours since purchase.

The mic is very quiet, too much so, and when using the usb dongle there,is nothing to remedy this other than using mic booster software, which is kind of a pain. Otherwise, great build quality, comfortable, solid sound quality, excellent 7.1 surround - a full and excellent package other than the mic.
