Customer Ratings & Reviews

It is the birthday present he asked me for. He loves it and he is very happy with it. The quality of it is superior to all the ones he had before.

Use them for remote work. They have been great. Very comfortable on my ears.

So far, so good. Zero complaints from a gamer. Not as big of an audiophile as others so little adjustments some people make I don't because it was almost perfect it of the box. Just downloaded dtx unbound and was set.

The mic isnt alll that great but the sound and comfort is definitely worth the price especially since its super easy to switch modes and connect from a computer to anything with bluetooth

Have never been dissapointed with HyperX. The sound quality is great. Only downside is the microphone quality it comes with seems lacking in 2025.

These have lasted longer than the almost dozen headsets I’ve purchased over the years. So good now I’m buying another pair for my younger son now.

we bought this for our son because his other headphones stopped working. he absolutely loves these and we'll definitely keep buying them

These headphones are amazing. Easy to use and set up, sound clear, and great on the head. The warranty is a bonus!

Sound quality is awesome, as expected. Definitely worth the price!

sounds great, very comfortable, good mic quality. build quality seems to be solid

The HyperX Cloud III S Wireless is a premium gaming headset offered in a not-so-premium form factor. Strictly examining appearances, the HyperX Cloud III S is, in my opinion, somewhat lackluster. It looks relatively cheap and lacks striking or unique design elements outside of HyperX’s red accents. From the headband to the end of the microphone, the HyperX Cloud III S looks rather generic. Beyond that, the material quality doesn’t “wow” me, either. The earcups utilize an ordinary black plastic and feature flimsy outer covers attached via magnets, and both ends of the headband are capped with the same generic plastic used on the earcups. That said, the headset does feel durable, overall, and it is very comfortable, but the appearance and material quality are slight downgrades from some of HyperX’s previous work. Moving on to performance, we begin to see where HyperX has made some improvements. The sound quality of the HyperX Cloud III S is excellent, providing a balanced profile perfect for gaming and acceptable for listening to music. However, users who prefer loud, deep bass may be disappointed; bass is certainly there, but the headset lacks the rumbly punch other gaming headsets offer. In my testing, I played several games with varying soundscapes, and I found this headset provided the best listening experience I’ve ever gotten out of a gaming headset, with outstanding clarity, directionality, and imperceptible latency. The headset performs similarly while listening to music; however, it’s still a gaming headset, and it can’t compare to premium over-ear monitors. Audiophiles need not apply! Additionally, the performance of the removable microphone is great as well. In chatting with some friends online, they noted my clarity had improved over previous headsets. The functionality of the headset is another high point. The setup process was nearly non-existent: I simply plugged the wireless receiver into an open USB port on my PC, turned the headset on, and I was ready to roll with no tedious pairing sequence or proprietary software downloads required! Beyond that, the controls on the headset are intuitive, and a glance at the setup guide explains the multi-function buttons, such as the microphone monitoring toggle, effectively. The headset also travels well, as it comes with a bag that will comfortably fit everything it requires. In terms of battery life, the HyperX Cloud III S is advertised as having a 200-hour duration while using Bluetooth, and 120-hour duration while using HyperX’s wireless adapter. While my testing was done almost exclusively using the wireless adapter, these claims are mostly accurate. I believe this is thanks, primarily, to the headset’s auto-off functionality which fully powers down the device after 20 minutes of inactivity by default, though this behavior can be modified via HyperX’s NGENUITY software if you prefer more stringent or lax power saving options. Overall, the HyperX Cloud III S Wireless is an excellent gaming headset. The issues with the appearance and material quality, in my opinion, make the price point a little excessive, but the performance and functionality are phenomenal for a gaming headset. I would absolutely recommend this product to a friend looking to upgrade their current headset.

Excellent choice for gaming really good sound quality with good bass

I just bought them for my son.Great value for the money.He seems to like them.They work really well

This HyperX Cloud 3 S wireless headset is nice. Top-notch wireless gaming headset and I’m really enjoying it. This unit has high performance gaming in mind and can be used with virtually any platform with its Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity. I trialed it with my PS5, Switch, and PC, all coming out great and simple to connect. This HyperX Cloud 3 S wireless headset is very comfortable with its HyperX signature memory foam pads which make a difference during long sessions. They are form fitting to have a great feel and make a firm but comfortable seal around my ears. The headset is very lightweight but made with a durable metal frame, so they aren’t going to break under heavy repetitive use or the usual daily bangs and bumps. Sound is phenomenal with crisp highs and deep vibrant bass delivered by its 53mm drivers. When paired to a PC this headset utilizes DTS Headphone X spatial audio, a unique feature of newer games to give locational sound cues and really feels like you’re in the game. The ultra-clear 10mm microphone is great for hi-def in game chat and does a great job at filtering out unwanted background/environmental noises. Sturdy but bendable construction for proper placement in front of my mouth for optimal functionality. Battery life on this headset is phenomenal but still maintains a lightweight build. Up to an amazing 200 hours on Bluetooth connection and 120 hours on the 2.4 GHz connection. Either way, this is incredible battery life for a wireless gaming headset. The battery lasts much longer than I ever could without stopping. Connection by either the Wireless (2.4 GHz) dongle or Bluetooth. Connection is quick and simple. If you can plug in a USB dongle or have ever connected a Bluetooth anything then you can do this. Connection was equally as simple on all 3 platforms I tested. I also really appreciate the full set of control buttons built right in the headset, keep it simple and easy access. There’s no trying to figure out how to do certain functions all with a single button that’s supposed to magically do it all. I also like the overall rounded design with simple black finish and red accents. It has a bit of a mature, pilot’s headset look. Conclusion: This HyperX Cloud 3 S wireless headset has been fantastic! It’s been a solid addition to my peripherals collection, offering a form fit, comfortable, high-quality wireless headset with excellent audio performance and incredibly long battery life. Overall design, quality, and performance make it one of my favorite headsets to date.

Good Product. Good sound. Good Design.Reached on time.

Easy to use, easy to set up. Perfect gift for a gamer

Good headset overall not ideal for ps5 sound quality isn’t great

Works amazing especially with high performing games

I was excited to try out the HyperX Cloud III S Wireless headset. I think the Cloud III S makes alot of improvements on previous generations that while not groundbreaking, still matter. Out of the box, it does not look very different from previous generations, which is actually a plus because the Cloud III was a good-looking headset. These look nice and are just visually appealing. The comfort still remains. The Cloud III S is a bit heavier than the competition but I did not feel that made a difference in its wearability. The padding is nice and snug. One thing that I did note is that my ears would get a bit hot. Otherwise, I could wear these all day without pain. With the battery life being the longest I have ever heard at 120 hours on 2.4GHz and 200 (yes not a typo) hours on Bluetooth, I have not yet needed to charge this bad boy yet. I don't know if I am in the minority but I really wish there was an option for a simple wired connections. I feel like one of the improvements that were made were in the sound quality. It felt rich and crisp enough that it felt like I could almost feel the steps taken. The sound quality is hands down one of its best strengths. There is no active noise cancellation, but despite feeling snug, the passive noise cancellation was also subpar. The microphone works great and it is detachable which makes it easy to transport but also lose. One of the things that I felt could have been easily engineered would have been to let it fold for easy transport. Another thing that is just annoying is the lack of Xbox compatibility. All in all, I think this is a good set of gaming headphones that do have a few small things to nitpick at but when you are talking premium, they matter.

The treble is extremely sibilant. Joe from GT reviewed this amd the measurements looked nice, but dont compare with his rig's target compare with the maxwell and you will see what I mean. I found the original cloud 3 wireless to sound much better. In fairness, soundstage was decent, and of course so is comfort and battery life
