    Tinny and awful sound

    Heard good things about the HyperX brand, but I think that the cloud stingers are not a good choice. The headphones are built okay, but the sound was awful, bad enough that I just decided to return them.

    Worked perfectly for just under a month, but now no audio comes through, though the microphone still works. (Tested on a bunch of devices, which played audio normally when using some earbuds)

    I’m not sure if I got a bad one or not but these worked for maybe a day or 2. My son used them with his iPad. They were a Christmas gift. December 26th, they were no longer working. I will be returning soon.

    Brought the headphones for my nephew as a birthday present. In less than a month, the headphone jack snapped off and that was the end of it. How can such a highly rated product made so poorly.

    Stop looking. Works on PS4 and Xbox. Buy These Now

    I will swear by these things forever. I picked up my first pair on sale thinking they would be a good small time use pair until I could blow 200+ on a new pair.......I used them for 3 years. I have only ever had to replace them once, and I made the mistake of getting a pair other than these, I quickly came back. These are perfect for people with big heads. The side volume rocker is really well made. The mic that mutes when flipped up is a really convenient touch, and even without a pop filter these things don't pick up much wind or background noise. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART is that they have metal sizer joints. The number one place I have had breaks on even the most expensive headphones is in the size adjusters. These are strong built metal and will not snap easily upon drops. That is a very very important feature.

    Not even 3.5 months after purchase with gentle use and the right ear is outputting no sound, the left is quiet, and the mic is also soft. Really disappointing.

      Hi, JLCP! What are you gaming on and how are you determining the loudness of your audio/microphone? Have you adjusted both the in-game and system settings? If you're on PC, try pairing the headset to a different audio port to either the front/back of your computer. Can you replicate the same issue on your phone, device, or controller? Ping us on our social media and let's see what we can do to help! HyperX

    I'm very disappointed in this headset... was very careful in handling this, as the cord felt fragile to begin with. It failed just after my opportunity to return it had passed...

    Just my opinion. I wasn’t satisfied with these. I decided to go with a different brand not long after purchasing these. The mic didn’t work and also I didn’t like the sound quality

    Possibly the worst headphones you can get. Stopped working one week after receiving. My son's crappy cheap headphones so much better. 2nd time I've been burned by Hyper X. Buyer beware.

    I've only owned these headphones for 2 weeks and used them 3 times and now the microphone doesn't work! Of course I'm 1 day past the return date. I won't buy anything from HyperX again.

    Good budget headset, could be louder

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Comfortable headset with good audio. After a year or so, I started noticing audio distortion from the mic, but haven't isolated the issue; it may be resulting from another part of my setup. I have purchased an external microphone, but I intend to keep using the cloud stingers as an audio-only headset for their light weight and comfortable form factor. These are for a non-audiophile who is more concerned about having a headset they can wear all day comfortably than they are about top notch volume and sound quality. It's worth noting that these don't get loud enough to satisfy my desires completely when listening to music, but such could be looked at as a convenient safety feature for child-minded buyers.

    Product was defective. One side was muffled and the other side was lower than the other. Maybe it was an old item or just bad luck but i wont be buying it again.
