    I am a Geek Squad Double agent. I have tried a lot of headsets and let me tell you? BUY IT! This headset has the best battery life of any headset on the market. I have been playing for 4 days about 6-8 hours a night and I’m at 80% battery. Sound is great I would say 8/10 you can customize it online and on consoles. Its light weight makes it extremely comfortable 10/10. I’m not a fan of the mic I wish it was a flip rather than a plug in. But it’s still not bad 6/10. Battery life 10/10 like I said this headset has the best battery life hands down. Range 10/10 I can walk across my 3400sqft home and still be able to talk. Overall an amazing buy and the price is reasonable for a great headset. I will be recommending this headset to all my clients going forward. Overall 9/10 if they fix the mic easy 10/10

    + Excellent Battery Life + Good Directional Audio + Light and Comfortable + Did I mention great battery Life :D - A little small for people with big Heads - Audio Static due to certain combinations of programs Overall for the price, this is a good Headset and would do well for people not looking to hurt their wallet too much. I use this daily for Remote Work and Gaming. For FPS, I tend to hear footsteps really well and it helps to hear where enemies are coming from. Gives you an edge in against the competition.

    I actually tried 3 headsets- the Corsair HS80 Max, Razer Blackshark V2 Pro (2023 version) and the Cloud III Wireless. I kept the Cloud III and am super happy with my choice. The out of the box sound and tuning was the best to my ears (Razer was too bassy and Corsair was too muffled, even with the SoundID custom tuning) and the Clouds were the most comfortable (though I did change out the ear cups to Wicked Cushions cooling gel ones, was going to do that regardless of the headset I kept). The battery life is awesome too! If you are torn between the same 3 headsets, I would recommend the Cloud IIIs over the Blackshark or HS80 Max’s. Very happy with my purchase.

    "Gaming" Headphones are Getting Good!

    This is the best gaming headphone I have ever used! I am a sucker for audiophile gear so I currently use the Drop PC38X open back headphones paired with a Schiit Modi/Magni stack, but I was looking for something wireless to use while I causally game and Im happy I bought the Cloud 3 Wireless! The bass is pretty tight and not boomy or muddy at all.. the mids are clear and the highs wont pierce your eardrums. The attached mic is very good and my friends all say it sounds clear. The build quality is great and they are EXTREMLY comfortable to wear coming from a guy that has a watermelon sized head! You can EQ these headphones using the HyperX Ngenuity software and it seems to work well from my experience.

    Great sound and very comfortable, for the price i’d say this is the best ‘budget’ headset on the market, but can easily compete with the more premium options.

    I’ve only had this headset for about a month. I really loved them at first, they’re super comfy, and I personally think they sound great. I started having issues with them disconnecting and reconnecting constantly, I fixed that issue, and then I started having issues with the audio having static noise. I’ve fixed it for now, but it’s still a bummer. I’ll probably go with another manufacturer next time

    I really like the build of these headphones. There are a lot of pros that come along with this, for instance the buttons are a lot more responsive and you can tell when you are pressing them more so than hyperX cloud 2 wireless. Microphone quality seems really good too, the mic monitoring is incredible and you can really hear yourself well. The one con I have with this headphone that happens to be a pretty big con is the sound quality. They are nothing like the hyperX cloud 2 wireless. The surround sound just absolutely does not work so if you're listening for sounds around you they are very sharp and don't sound like natural sounds around you. There are a plethora of things I have tried to get the DTS surround sound working. Contacted HyperX support to no avail. Even searched all over the internet on solutions and this seems to be a pretty common problem. I really don't believe there will be a solution just because it is likely a firmware or software problem that hyperx simply can't fix at this point. I was really tempted to return to my cloud 2 but decided that pros on this headset just outweigh going back to a previous version.
