Our verdict

A practical, cross-platform wired headset built on a comfort-first design, worth it mainly for the connector flexibility and mic quality claims.

Overview

A wired gaming headset built around angled 53mm drivers, memory foam cushioning and a detachable noise-cancelling mic, connecting to PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and other platforms through USB-C, USB-A or 3.5mm.

HyperX carries this over from its long-running Cloud line with a metal frame and the same memory-foam comfort focus rather than a ground-up redesign. The multi-connector approach (3.5mm, USB-A, USB-C) is the practical selling point, letting one headset move between a PC and multiple consoles without swapping cables. On-earcup volume and mute controls avoid digging through in-game menus.

  • Angled 53mm drivers tuned for gaming
  • USB-C, USB-A and 3.5mm connectivity included
  • Noise-cancelling 10mm mic with mesh filter
  • Full metal frame construction

Who it's for

Suits someone who plays across more than one platform and wants a single wired headset that covers all of them without adapters. Less relevant for anyone who specifically wants a wireless connection.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Works across PC, PS5, Xbox and 3.5mm devices via three connector types
  • Memory foam headband and ear cushions for extended sessions
  • On-earcup volume and mic mute controls
  • Metal frame built for durability
Cons
  • Wired only, no wireless option in this model
  • No customer review data available yet to confirm real-world durability

Performance notes

The angled 53mm drivers are tuned by HyperX audio engineers for gaming rather than general listening, and the 10mm mic includes a mesh filter meant to cut background noise along with an LED mute indicator on the earcup. A full metal frame is the main durability claim, built to handle travel and accidental drops. Memory foam in both the headband and ear cushions, wrapped in leatherette, is the comfort layer.
