HyperX Cloud Alpha review
Solid stereo sound tuned specifically for PC gaming
Improved looks and comfort ; Defined mid-tones ; Booming bass
Muddled lows
HyperX’s new mid-range gaming headset feels perfectly tuned for PC gaming to its benefit – and its detriment.

HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless review: Leading the charge
This HyperX headset promises 300-hour battery life and support for PC and PlayStation. How does it compare to the top gaming headsets?
Unbelievable battery life ; Super comfortable ; Great sound
No Bluetooth or wired connection ; NGenuity is glitchy ; Cross-compatibility is limited
HyperX has made a real stormer in the form of the Cloud Alpha Wireless - a headset that sounds wonderful and features battery life that shouldn't be possible. It's also fairly priced, in our view, making it one of the best headsets we've tested.

HyperX's Cloud Alpha is as comfy as gaming headsets get
Dual-chamber audio, an affordable price and comfortable earmuffs? HyperX's Cloud Alpha is a nifty deal.

Kingston HyperX Cloud Alpha Headset Review: Near-Perfect At $100

Although we don't expect perfection from a $100 gaming headset, the HyperX Cloud Alpha's sound quality comes close. Moreover, Kingston uses reasonably high-quality materials put together in a solid way. Our award is well-deserved.

HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless Review
The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is an excellent wireless gaming headset. It excels where it counts, in audio quality, but don't try to use it with anything besides a PC.
