HyperX Cloud Earbuds - Gaming Headphones with Mic for Nintendo Switch and Mobile Gaming

I have been an Amazon shopper for decades, but this is the first time I'm writing a review on a product because I had completely enjoyed this pair of earbuds (notice the past tense) so much that I am compelled to write a review. Bass is very deep for on-ear earbuds, volume is loud, tweeter is clear without any shrills, and mid range warm-toned. I fell in love with this pair of earbuds, especially because I hate the over-the-head bulk of a typical headset and the vacuum suction of the in-ear earbuds. Also, because this pair of earbuds rests just outside of the ear canals without completely blocking them, the sound from the drivers naturally produce a surround sound effect, which effectively expands the audio space to about 5 feet all around you as opposed to resonating it only within your skull from a typical in-ear-canal earbuds. Pros: fantastic audio performance with its 14mm drivers, delivering deep base and crystal clear mid range and upper scale notes. Very comfortable on the ears with 3 selectable sizes of silicone tips to fit varying ear sizes. The flat cords prevents tangling. The case is a nice bonus with its compact size for portability or storage. I used it for an average of 5 hours a day consistently for a year while playing Diablo III on my laptop, and I rarely used it for any other purpose, so obviously there was no abuse or rough handling of this pair of earbuds. Cons: So, why the title of Dr Jekyll and My Hyde? Well, as much as I absolutely loved this pair of earbuds, nearly a year after use, the cords became brittle at the seams and began to crack. The point where the red cord meets the 3.5mm jack and the ear pieces cracked little by little, and within a month the inner wires also became frayed. Eventually, the right side audio died. I tried to salvage it by using a duct tape, but it was an exercise in futility. Had I known that HyperX earbuds have a 2 year warranty (something that I overlooked entirely) I would have contacted the manufacturer for a warranteed replacement, but at the time I wasn't aware of it and just trashed it to get it could get it out of my sight. It was a fantastic pair of earbuds that I absolutely enjoyed for a solid year, but after a year of use, the red cable cracked at the seams and fell apart. I am very, very disheartened because there is no other set of earbuds like it. It is so comfortable to wear for many hours at a sitting that I hardly noticed it in my ears. I should give this product a 1 star review for its dismal material failure, but due to the phenomenal audio performance, comfort, convenient use on my laptop that I am still giving it a 5 star review. However, buyer beware, if you purchase it, it will give you full satisfaction for a year, and then it will break apart at precisely where the cable joins the earpieces and the 3.5mm jack. On the off chance that HyperX should decide to make this exact pair of earbuds with a braided cord, I'd buy another pair in a heartbeat.

I purchase these HyperX Cloud earbuds in lieu of Pubg Mobile on my Iphone (keep in mind you have to have the lightning cable adapter but its worth it). These are one the best earbuds for the price. I have dropped these, sat on them, yank it on (mostly unintentional as the cord is very long) and even sweat on them and they work perfectly fine. They are super durable and have outlasted many earbuds I have had in the past. The only flaw, its corded, so you may get it caught on something but if most of the gamer community would know you can't beat the response time of corded vs Bluetooth. The earbud design is genius that it pops of so if it gets caught or yanked it will not break the earpiece, rather most of the time the tips will stay in your ear. Only bad part is if you loose them you. As for the important part sound, now for Music its ok, definitely not ok for an audiophile but ok for someone who works out (sound wise). But when it comes to gaming, its phenomenal. Its minute but the differences make a large difference on my iphone xs max playing pubg mobile. I hear more, the response is fast and it really helped me pay attention to my game better. I also like the plug being 90deg angle unfortunately i still have to use the lightning adapter but when i use the headphones on other none apple items the 90 deg plug is great for space saving and less likely to damage the most common part on any wired headphones, the plug outlet. For the price, for only $35, these are great for what I use them if not perfect. If its for games that only play in Stereo like pubg mobile, nintendo switch, ps4 controller, etc.. these are great they do the job well and are priced well. I highly recommend these for gaming. Now if you use a device that offers surround sound, then i highly suggest you pay more for the HyperX Cloud Alphas or better, but for games on mobile devices like Pubg mobile, these are perfect! Cheers and happy gaming

These earbuds are a good set for me and people alike but I'll cut straight to the point. These earbuds aren't for everyone and that's because of the shape of the buds. The buds are shaped to sit on the inside of your ear and quite a few people can't seem to get them to stay. I can get them to stay on strong but that's because I don't wear them like a normal earbud, this pair doesn't go into your ear, it sits in your ear. This is supposed to extend the usage in a day but what I'm seeing is that some people are trying to get them in their ear (like other earbuds) or constantly adjusting them. This increases the pressure on your ear and makes them seem uncomfortable. I've learned to put them in and give a little bit of a twist to sit them in position. Now on to the sound. They sound great and for earbuds, I was definitely impressed considering the price. The gaming tag always gets in the way of the price but they don't seem to bother it to much. The high range isn't ear piercing and the mid range is clear, but the bass is were most earbuds fall as does this one. The bass sounds pretty good inside of my bedroom but when in a noisy environment such as my college cafeteria, its definitely fades and the midrange also suffers an amount. This is due to the design of the buds, they have a noticeable hole in the bud which keeps it from falling out of your ear. The problem is that you lose a decent amount of sound out of it. I'd say that the looks are nice, the style and feel of the earbuds is there, not to mention that the ear piece cover is metal. Overall, I think they are a good pair of earbuds and will stand through the rigorous chores of life. Now it's up to you to make the purchase.

足音めっちゃ聞こえます。 音域もいい感じです

Depois de alguns meses de usos eu resolvi passar aqui para deixar meu feedback a qualidade de som é otima, muito bom para jogar... o fio não enrola, é bem resistente. O cabo é curto igual fone de celular, então realmente só presta pra jogar em portatil... Porem você pode comprar aquele extensor de cabo da hyperx que vem com a placa de som 7.1, ai você consegue usar ele em qualquer lugar(e é isso q eu faço). A borracha ela encaixa muito bem na orelha, não fica caindo, não machuca e a qualidade de som é igual se fosse akelas borrachas que entram fundo na orelha(aquelas borrachas machucam bastante minha orelha, e para uso prolongado jogando é horrivel). Porém você tem que tomar muito cuidado em ficar mexendo a borracha, a borracha é segurada pela uma travinha de plastico no fone.. um dos lados quebrou essa trava e agora tenho q fazer cambiarra usando um pedaço de fita na lateral(não fica visivel) se não a borracha não fica 100% firme e corre o risco de cair e perder a borracha... Tirando isso o a qualidade do fone mantem sendo a mesma... se você nao gosta de jogar usando headset ou ta com problema no couro cabeludo(que seria o meu caso) e precisa respirar e tem problema com akelas borrachas entrando na orelha, eu recomendo esse fone mesmo assim!

Good audio nice fit for the price. Use it for ps5

These are my very first gaming earphones which i purchased in 2020 during lockdown. Okay so rating the gaming experience of these earphones, they are 10/10. You could hear even the smallest sound in game, let it be FPS or battle royal. I have been using them for the past 3 years and i didn't face any issue with sound. The one thing i felt which should be improved a little bit is the build quality. The hinge between the earphones and the wire got damaged due to excess folding. I have taped it but still the earphones work as good as new. After reading the reviews of some people they complained about the earbud not fitting in their ears. I know everyone might not feel these earphones comfortable and get a perfect fit in one go. The same happened with me, when i tried wearing them i just pushed them in my ear just like regular earphones and they used to fall off. But later after reading the manual i got to know how to actually wear them. These are the best ever earphones in this price range. You don't get the over-the-ear experience which you get in headphones, but for me what matters is the sound quality and gaming experience which is amazing. I would highly recommend them.

Awesome earphone in a budget pricing for mobile gaming. Its so convenient and comfortable for long periods of usage . Sound quality for gaming and even for casual music listening is great on this price point. If you play Pubg mobile or Call of duty mobile then this is really good earphone for identify the nearby enemy foot steps and gun shot sounds perfectly. I recommend this product for every casual mobile gamers.
