I just upgraded to the cloud 3 from the cloud 2 and my biggest issue is the in game audio is significantly quieter making it way harder to hear footsteps.
I’ve tested both wired and wireless. The cloud 3 is probably their worst iteration of the cloud headsets. Absolutely no bass at all. I highly recommend the Cloud 2 wired and Cloud Alpha wired. I use both. The Cloud 2 for competitive, and the Cloud Alpha for single player story games.
there's so much different opinions on hyperx line of headset it ain't even funny, ive seen reviewers say the alpha's are the worst sounding in the entire lot and some people say its the best
I wish I had seen this before buying them, I'm actually returning them because even after using aftermarket EQs to try make them sound as good as possible, there is still a lack of bass and the soundstage is really poor when playing any FPS games, its nearly impossible to tell where footsteps are unless they are directly left or right of you
I had the Cloud 3 Wireless for 3 days. Dont understand how some people can say this headset had no bass 😂😂😂 it has enough bass! This was a good allrounder for music, movies and story games. In competitive i was able to hear the steps and the correct direction, but the highs are way too loud, shoots and grenades in cs2 was so loud, they overpowered the steps. The Mic was excellent. Battery was excellent. Comfort was excellent. But the reason why i send it back was the Power Button, i dont like this kind of shit where you must press and hold for seconds to Power on, sometimes it didnt Power on with 1, 2 or 3 seconds Button hold, had to try it several times. And the 2nd reason was the weak Clamp force, everytime when i was moving my head for some centimeters it slides down of my Head. It was annoying... But all the other things it was a really good Headset!
@@Im_WakzyeI’ve had one for I believe 3 years now, 0 signs of wear and tear and overall build of headset really stood the test of time. The sound quality is also pretty good and overall good headset for price
your mobo has ALC4080 with an embedded USB2.0 controller that it talks to rest of motherboard/cpu with. it's far from being some superior sound card. hyperx cloud 3--which i plan to buy soon--can be used via the other cable instead of usb, but of course you'll lose additional functionality on pc.
I've had a wired Cloud II for about 3/4 years. I'm wanting to go wireless: would I go with cloud III, cloud II or cloud II core? I saw a lot of people saying that this even the core is better than this cloud III. FPS game… remembering that the cloud iii has dropped in price and is almost the same
Which one is more ''boom-y'' out of these? Both currently cost around €89/€90 in my local electronics store. I was originally planning on getting the Corsair HS35 Surround V2, but... maybe they're worse 🤔🤷♀
Problem with the cable can be solved with an extension. I saved extension cable from cloud stinger. That cable is in my motherboard and it sits on my desk so I plug any headphones that I want.
I was wondering that aswell. Will it worsen or can I do it, the cloud 2 dongle is much longer and fits my setup better so if it doesnt give me a disadvantage in sound i would do it.
i have a quadcast and there is fron audio for a reason i have my pc on my desk anyway so it doeant matter i wonder what the wireless sounds like it has its own dac and amp built in but i heard wired is better its true audio then i heard from a guy the cable got leakage if you are in dc people could hear your game audio and yeah recconmend getting a quadcast instead opf suing the mic even if the mic sounds alot better than the clouad 2 someone should test the cloud 2 3 and quadcast
So using it without the usb card is better? I have a split cable extension which i use could connect it directly to my motherboard with. Is this the play???
@@Lcv1x according to kingston 3 does not support 7.1 sound. only 3d sound supported, hence the software lock. and its defiantly not the same as 2. the sensitivity is 50% lower on 3 so it might not be as good.
I think so but the cloud 3 s are much better souding but it doesnt have as good 3d sound. I would like to use the old but it sound muffled and not as crisp
What do you mean with the extension cable? Do I skip the usb card and get a extension cable instead and plug it in without usb and just straight in the 3.5mm audio jack in the back of my pc?
Yes, 3.5mm audio extension cable directly into the PC (Mic/Spkr splitter if required - if your mic and speaker ports are separate, if you have a single port that accepts mic and speaker, this splitter is not required).
nope...to this time too, same nope..they have a very low sound..gotta go thru countless apps just to find one that raise that sound level...and dtx from microsoft store is not free...supose to be from what i hear...going ,after so many years on hypherx, on other brands..by the way..if you have some sugestions..pls help..very dissapointed with these ones tbh...but is just me ofc...
I never owned cloud 2 but recently started using cloud 3 wired and it is SO comfortable. I own Bose QC45 and cloud 3 feels just like QC45... In terms of the sound quality, I mainly use the headphone for a fps game and have no problem with the gameplay (can hear footsteps, gun shots don't sound disturbingly sharp etc)

That's the artificial surrounding sound they are adding to headsets it's terrible

Should i buy the cloud 2 wireless or the corsair hs80 wireless?

It worth paying £70 for this headset on 2024?

ppl say Cloud 3 sounds worse than 2, rtings graph too, has no bass?
do you know if the USB dongle from hyperx cloud 2 is compatible with cloud 3?
So the mic won't work when i plug it into my laptops aux?
has a 4 pole 3.5, it should
How do I connect it to my ipad? Should I buy a usb c splitter seperately?
is it btr to use cloud 3 without the card or cloud 2 without the card
Curious, would it sound better with the cloud 3 headset plugged into the cloud 2 dongle?
I was wondering that aswell. Will it worsen or can I do it, the cloud 2 dongle is much longer and fits my setup better so if it doesnt give me a disadvantage in sound i would do it.
@@earthy5417 the answer is no. I bought one, the sound stage is so small on them I returned them the next day. They're trash.
Review is on point as usual
Tq!
how are these on ps5

@@Fredin07yea fr

Need a set for the PS5, Which should i buy, Cloud 3 or Cloud 2
Whichevers cheaper
Hd599
cloud 3 has EQ Driver
Yea
I was considering the Cloud 3s but from what I've seen it doesn't have that 7.1 surround sound that the CLoud 2s have.. :/
It does, but instead of it being on the usb sound card like the cloud II's, it's locked behind a hyperx software program.
@@Lcv1x Ohhhh ok thanks! I might me more inclined to get them then.
@@Lcv1x according to kingston 3 does not support 7.1 sound. only 3d sound supported, hence the software lock. and its defiantly not the same as 2. the sensitivity is 50% lower on 3 so it might not be as good.
@@clamojoat1938But how can everyone say according to kingston while hyperx already owned by hp by the time cloud 3 got released?
the surround sounds are gimmicks and you should not use surround sound when gaming
I THINK there is no mic led on your HX3... Which indicates when u are mutted or not
There is
@@ZXTech i didnt get tht led for my black headset....😒
Can I use my Cloud2 sound card with my Cloud 3 headset?
I think so but the cloud 3 s are much better souding but it doesnt have as good 3d sound. I would like to use the old but it sound muffled and not as crisp
@@Fredin07 so it worsens my preformace if i use 2s sound card. Its much long and fits better with setup
