    HyperX Cloud Alpha Gaming Headset - Dual Chamber Drivers - Award Winning Comfort - Durable Aluminum Frame - Detachable Microphone - Works with PC, PS4, PS4 PRO, Xbox One, Xbox One S (HX-HSCA-RD/AM)

    • Mic is solid and doesn't have the 'bass' that a stand-alone mic would have, but gets the job done VERY well and is more than ample to use in game-Build quality is on point, metal doesn't run through the headband but it still has plenty of strength to survive nearly anythingCons:-Mic mute
    • I can be a bit soft spoken at times, but I don't think the mic is quite as good as it should be
    • Good sound, good mic quality.
    • Mic doesn’t work
    • Pros: comfortable, replaceable mic and cordCon: Can hear ringing noise when quite-no worse than other headsets I've had
    • The mic is great, too, and delivers clean and crisp voice output
    • But apart from that I think it's a great mic when it's working properly, although I haven't listened to myself
    • But apart from that I think it's a great mic when it's working properly, although I haven't listened to myself

    • I don't like my mic that close to me
    • The mic never worked on this headset
    • For team FPS games, the mic picks up keystrokes and annoys the teammates, so the mic is not directional
    • In the end, the sound and mic, as well as the little extras made the Alphas stand out (and made them worth the extra $20).The extras in this case include detachable mic and braided cables (including a shorter cable for console and a good extension for PC) and a nice soft bag
    • Secondly, the mic is really, really good
    • The mic shouldn't be this awful

    • So this is my honest review about the HyperX Cloud Alpha Pro Gaming Headset!Pros: Great Quality, the frame is made of metal so the parts don't break easily, very lightweight, doesn't even feel like you're wearing the headset at times, ear cushions are great, no more headaches!, sound quality is significantly better than every headset I've ever owned, braided cord which means that it won't tear any time soon, or maybe not at all, the mic is awesome, and it's very compact when you need to put it away
    • Quality is just incredible, the mic is pretty good since it doesn’t make static sounds, this headset is amazing for the price, and it helps me a lot because I’m a R6 player
    • Mic is clear
    • I don't care if the mic blocks out other noise if this is such an issue.
    • The construction is great with the detachable mic and extra cable with splitter to plug in both the mic and the headphones for gaming (in my case) on my PC.
    • several of my friends also always comment on how clear and crisp my hyper x mic is, and when i compared it to my gold ps4 headset they said my hyperx mic was better

    • Mic is good with good noise reduction

    • First, the left can started to lose audio periodically and there were intermittent mic issues as well
    • but, that doesn't outweigh the bad mic quality.
    • The detachable mic does take a minute to get used to if you're accustomed to flipping up your mic when not using it.
    • My only complain is the mic

    • Comfy and really good base and mic for its price

    • My other issue is the mic, I wish the boom would flip up out of the way, it's a nice boom, very bendy, not floppy, but the Stinger flips
    • for the price, you get a pretty decent mic
    • The detachable mic makes it feel much more cheap over having a retractable one or one that folds
    • Mic - not bad by any means, but had more of a background hiss when testing calls through skype vs the sennheiser headsets
    • I have not been able to test the mic quality with a third party yet but testing the mic for picking up that sound leakage I mentioned earlier, its really bad

    • Detachable mic
