HyperX CloudX – Gaming Headset – Xbox

Dubs good for xbox

As someone that previously had the Cloud II, this has some pros and cons. The mic quality is just as good if not better than the Cloud II, and I’m so grateful to finally have in line controls. The mic monitoring, however? Terrible. Max mic monitoring is equivalent to Cloud II at ~25%. Not hearing myself very well means I’m louder overall, which is a nuisance for those around me. The overall build feels cheaper - whereas I could put the Cloud II on and it would sit nicely, this one doesn’t seem very stable. Have to re-fit it to my head everytime I put it on. Other than that, it’s comfortable. The cord is too long imo but manageable. The audio is good, though not as good as Cloud II. Sounds clear, good lows and highs, though both could use improvement.

Got it for my grandson for Xmas. He’ll love it.
