Amazing, recommend this headset to anyone, including the other models in the series (owned the previous downgraded model).

-Comfort is amazing; has interchangable pads for soft or leather feel; even forget you have it on which is a goal for me with headsets -great mic; all my friends say it sounds pretty clean -USB control for 7.1 is really fun; sound has been perfect for what I need; especially with the frequency range...

-the adapter for headphone jack to headphone and microphone jacks is a small adapter that has a specified length so it doesnt work on all systems -Havent seen any ways that its been negative yet

Received these today ive had several headsets over the years these are by far the best ive had after testing them out opt for these not turtle Beach's. One downside was there didn't come with the latest update for PS4 which enables the volume control on the sound card but after a simple quick update...

Just bought them. I would recommend for FPS games as it's really good for sound cues. Also the base is really nice when listening to music. Also for what it is the detachable mic is legit the best invention ever created in history!

son very happy with them - only passing comment would be that the microphone could be smaller and fit a little bit more securely - doesn't take away from the fact that headsets are very good and comfortable

Kingston was off to a great start on their first venture into the gaming headset segment when they unveiled the first HyperX Cloud . Needless to say, they're trying to ride the momentum with their second gaming headset – the Kingston HyperX Cloud II .

Utilitarian design; Aluminum build; Soft padding; Interchangeable ear pads; Durable braided cables; Useful bundled accessories; Large 53mm drivers; Outstanding audio quality for its price; Affordable for what it has to offer; Improved detachable microphone

Rubber cap on line-out port can easily get lost; 7.1 surround sound is good but still miles away from true 7.1 surround sound quality

The 53mm dynamic stereo drivers used in the original CLOUD produced crisp mids and highs with very good bass levels and that hasn't changed a bit with the CLOUD II so that's one piece of good news.

- Build Quality (Flexible/Durable Aluminum Frame; - Excellent Audio Quality (Crystal Clear Mids/Highs; - Very Good Bass Levels; - 7.1 Virtual Surround Sound USB Card; - Comfortable (Size/Weight/Cushions; - Removable Boom Microphone (Improved Model; - Available In 3 Colors

- No Control Software; - Price (For Some

This is a fantastic gaming headset and if you're involved in eSports, or just a keen gamer at home, you'll love what the Cloud II has to offer. You'll struggle to find anything better, or with a comparable feature set for the same kind of money and that makes this one of the best all-round headsets...

Excellent build quality; Very comfortable fit; Detachable microphone; Separate game/chat volume control; Multi-format support; Braided cables; Competitive price

The HyperX Cloud II gaming headset are well built and should provide for years of enjoyment in gaming and multimedia playback. The sound quality is very good for music and movies, and the virtual surround does a good job to simulate that you are in the game.

» Attractive styling (even in hot pink and white; » High end sound for gaming and multimedia enjoyment; » Solid construction; » Includes plenty of useful accessories; » Two sets of ear pads; one in leatherette and one in cloth; » 8 year old daughter finally enthused about something I reviewed

» Can't get 7.1 channel surround or use microphone unless using USB adapter; » I wish the microphone jack cover was attached to the headphones; so I won't lose it; » Would like an adapter to use a sound card's dedicated outputs for surround sound and microphone

I'm sure you're all familiar with Kingston and their HyperX line of gaming memory and SSD's. Did you know that HyperX also makes gaming peripherals Their original headset - the HyperX Cloud - has been out for a while and has gained a lot of praise from the gaming community.

Kingston is a leader in the memory and storage market, but the company has recently expanded its product portfolio to more completely cover the gamer's needs.
