ASTRO debuted its first A20 (Gen 1) wireless headset three years ago as a mid-tier alternative to the pricier A50. As the gaming industry prepared for the launch of the current gen consoles (PS5 and Series X), so, too, did ASTRO; this past October they launched the Gen 2 version of the A20 wireless headset, which touts a couple new features over the Gen 1 while still maintaining that mid-tier pricing.
The HyperX Cloud II Wireless (released earlier this week) takes the successful Cloud II wired headset and makes it wireless! While I haven’t reviewed the wired Cloud II, the wireless version is extremely similar in form, matching in their adjustable aluminum frames, signature HyperX leatherette-encased memory foam padded headbands/earcups, le...
The Cloud Stinger S is the latest headset in HyperX’s Cloud Stinger line, which focuses on delivering a quality sound experience at a lower price-point. Headsets in the Stinger line range from around $40 - $80, and the Stinger S (released earlier this month) fits right in the middle at $59.99. The Stinger S shares the same somewhat blo...
While I’m a big fan in general of HyperX’s gaming headsets, the Cloud MIX is still one of my very favorites. It is by far the most versatile headset I’ve had the opportunity to use, supporting use with a single 3.5mm jack (for mobile devices, certain computers/laptops, and consoles), dual 3.5mm jacks (for computers that support an audio/microphone jack set-up), and Bluetooth connections.
HyperX continues to evolve its headset line-up with its recently released gaming headset, the Cloud Alpha S. After having reviewed six other audio/microphone devices in the HyperX arsenal (the Cloud Stinger, the Cloud Revolver S, the Cloud Flight Wireless, the Cloud Stinger Wireless, the Cloud MIX Wired, and the Cloud Earbuds), I was delighted to f...
Like the Cloud Stinger before it, the Cloud Stinger Wireless attempts to bring the best audio experience possible for gamers on a tighter budget. For just shy of $100, the Cloud Stinger Wireless is certainly the least expensive wireless headset in HyperX’s arsenal, and absolutely delivers on its promise of functional, comfortable, and budget-conscientious quality.
The Cloud MIX is an intersection between the well-established HyperX Cloud headset line and a new venture into mobile-focused gaming, making the name “MIX” an apt descriptor.
The Sennheiser GSP 500 is a high-end headset from Sennheiser, a manufacturer beloved by audiophiles. Released earlier this summer, we got our hands on one recently for a full review.
Last week, HyperX released its first wireless headset: the Cloud Flight. Since the company already boasts an impressive selection of gaming headsets, adding a wireless one to the Cloud series makes good sense. Overall, the Cloud Flight is an exciting entry in the Cloud line (and headsets in general) with the kind of quality we’ve come to expect from HyperX.
In mid-March, HyperX released a new model in their Cloud Revolver headset line: the Cloud Revolver S. This new high-end, 7.1 surround sound model absolutely delivers on its promises of stand-out sound, comfort, and convenience.
Steelseries is a big name in headsets, so when they told me they were launching a radically different line, I was intrigued. After using the Arctis 3 in my daily work and gaming routine for over three weeks, I’ve been impressed with the performance, though the experience comes with its own unique, and sometimes annoying, quirks.
