What customers say about "Key Specs"

HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black

The headset is very comfortable. I wear my headset nearly all day and it never hurts.
The headset evenly distributes pressure on the head band so it's not focused just on the top of my head. The headphones do not touch my ears in any meaningful way.
It is the most comfortable headset that I've ever owned. The ear cups do a good job of canceling noise out as well.
Comfort is good, you get both leather and fabric earpads so you can have your choice and they aren't too tight on your head either, they feel very comfortable.
The headphones are very solidly build, the headband is made of a lovely soft touch material that you can use for hours at a time without realising it's still there.

What customers say about "Headset"

HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black

The sound quality of this headset is great and it's comfortable!
The sound for headphones is pretty amazing. It delivers reasonably well across a wide dynamic range and base has a nice kick to it.
Sound quality through the headset is good with great balance, mids are clear and the bass is present but not overpowering or muddy. Highs are a little quiet.
They sounded amazing, I heard things in the game I hadn't heard so clear on other headsets the road noise and engine noise was outstanding.
My only gripe is with the speaker head comforters that while can go on easily, often fall off.

What customers say about "Microphone"

HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black

The mic is a tad quiet, though it is significantly better than all headsets I've tried so far.
The microphone is pretty standard for a gaming headset.
The mic is amazingly clear & not in the way.
The mic is detachable, and it comes with it's own built in volume control. It`s nice.
Everyone I have spoken to says they can hear me nice and clearly, and I never have trouble distinguishing game and chat audio.
The microphone is horrible. I'm not sure for the reason, but it picks up even moderate volume sound from the headphones.

What customers say about "Features"

HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black

Current manufacturer pricing is amazing for the quality of build. Best build quality I've had in a headset, ever.
The headphones are fine in regards to sound and comfort. It should be noted that these are designed for PC/Mac first, console second.
Overall it's a very good headset and feels like it'll stand up to years of use, the aluminium construction feels solid and of high quality.
Unbelievable quality for the price. Beautifully solid with a high quality weighty feel, with superior materials used throughout, really nice leather stitched band across the top.
