HyperX Cloud 2/Cloud II Wireless Headphones Review

 

HyperX Cloud 2 


Type Over-ear
Enclosure Closed-Back
Wireless Yes
Noise Cancelling No
Mic Yes
Transducer Dynamic

The HyperX Cloud 2/Cloud II Wireless are comfortable gaming headphones that are compatible with PCs, PS4, PS5, and Nintendo Switch consoles. Thanks to their wireless dongle, they have very low latency. They also have over 30 hours of continuous playback time, so you don't have to worry about charging them very often. While some users may prefer their slightly bass-heavy sound profile, they don't have an EQ to help customize their sound. Their companion software also is fairly basic and doesn't offer many customization features. That said, they're well-built and have a detachable boom mic that does an impressive job of recording your voice, even in noisy environments.


Style

The HyperX Cloud 2 Wireless look identical to the HyperX Cloud 2/Cloud II. They have a black frame with red accents on the hinges, headband stitching, and brand logo on each earcup. They also have a detachable boom mic, which can help them look more casual.


Build Quality 

The HyperX Cloud II Wireless have a great build quality. Like the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless, their hinges and yokes are made of aluminum, which makes them feel durable. The ear cups also feel dense and should survive a couple of accidental drops without taking too much damage. They have leather padding on the headband and ear cups, too. However, the audio cable linking the ear cups to the headband is a potential weak point.
