Microphone needs tweaking
Slick high-end

The only thing that bugged me with the HyperX Cloud is the microphone's construction. Having read a few reviews earlier that the wires start showing after a while
I am not surprised as the ends are not sheathed properly. Be careful and store yo

The HyperX Cloud is a well designed headset which is perfect for all gamers so it is hard not to recommend it. Kingston is constantly improving their gaming gear and these are not only empty words as we are constantly seeing better products in our reviews...
Very Efficient, Competitive Price, Excellant Build Quality, Unparalleled Comfort
Slightly Below Average Microphone Quality
The headset's drivers are extremely efficient and capable of volume levels they should satisfy almost any user. Kingston rates the maximum output at 105dB. I have no doubt that they are capable of meeting or perhaps exceeding that specification. Reducing ...
In conclusion, I would say that the HyperX Cloud headset is one of the best gaming headsets I have ever used. They're comfortable, sound great, and built to a high standard. For a price of $89.99, you cannot go wrong here. As I said before, Kingston hit t...

Kingston has come up with a very strong first offering for the gaming audio buyer with its HyperX Cloud. It's a superb product overall, with one of the most comprehensive accessories package I've ever seen in any product. As versatile as it is capable, ...

Kingston's move into peripherals is a foretelling sign that other Kingston branded gear that isn't memory or storage may make an appearance in the future. Of course, I could be wrong and it might stop here at the HyperX Cloud. For those who didn't read th...
Abstract: The HyperX Cloud is the first gaming headset from a company that isn't know for its gaming audio prowess. That been said, HyperX ( a division of Kingston ), has really come out swing with a well speced headset. The HyperX Cloud uses memory foam ear cushio...
Reviewing headsets is one of the more pleasant jobs here at OC3D Towers. Place them on your bonce, dig out our expansive testing playlist that has everything from brown note bass to jangly Motown and hit play. It's a tough job but someone has to do it.Whe...
