They have been quite the travelling pair of headphones. I reviewed them here on my channel, sold them to Justin and now they have made it into your hands. I loved this headset and I think we feel about the same on them
Gamesky indeed. I was happy I could send them out so people can hear about them. I got the velour pads for them though as the leather ones would make me sweaty after a few hours of gameplay but they are solid.
First found your channel searching for HyperX Cloud reviews. They were a great buy, my son thrashes the hell out of them gaming and listening to music.
I just received these as a gift from my wife. I will agree with your review and I would like to add this note. The headphones also block out the exterior noises. And this improves the audio performance of the headphones. I have been a Corsair fan in the past, but I'm going to give these headphones a try.
Just wanted to say thanks for all these headphone reviews to go through. Been wracking my brain for the last 2 days about getting anew headset. My Sony gold that I purchased back when the ps4 came out has been seen much, much better days but still has incredible sound.
I prefer using stereo to 7.1. It's way easier to tell where a sound is coming from using plain stereo. I have the cloud II's at the moment and have the 7.1 button turned off permanently. Thinking about switching to these for the wirelessness. The sound from hyperx headphones are above and beyond the competition imo.
@@bradendiel9335 Yeah I ended up buying the wireless. TBH the sound in the wireless is noticeably worse than the wired, but that's the only negative i have about them atm. I would switch back to my wired cloud 2's if i didn't find the wireless so useful when walking around my house.
My girl bought these for me last xmas 🎄 I thought they would be junk, then I got on a game with them and was really surprised how awesome they sounded. They feel really good too. Even after long hours they feel good. I wear glasses and they don't hurt me like my turtle beaches used to. And the TB headset were supposed to be made for glasses too lol. Anyway, it's been close to a year, I use them everyday on PS4 and they are still great!
Using them for a year now, I tried the Corsair Virtuoso SE sure the sound mortification are endless but the sound quality and the battery life is a bit trash for the price. Sold it and still using my flight till this day! I have my eye on the OrbitS though.
Jason, I've just got to say... It was so nice to see that you reviewed this headset. I've been looking all over the internet reading/watching reviews on wireless headsets and I had pretty much narrowed it down to these or the Logitech G935s. I was so happy to see that you had a video on them (I usually watch your phone reviews), and it convinced me to pull the trigger so I just ordered a set on Amazon (they are on sale for $125 too)! Keep it real man, thanks for the great content!
For anyone interested in how the Logitech G935 felt like; in my experience, sound quality was top notch, mic had nice quality too (big plus for me was that it selfmutes when moving the mic upwards). Bad things were only 10 hours or less battery, so be sure the charge them overnight. They weren't comfortable at all, a lot of pressure on my head, i had to put on hoodies to counter the pressure (this is just a personal matter tho). Now my dongle broke and have to look for a new headset :( gonna try these HyperX Cloud Flights I think.
A friend recommended these to me, let me test his out and I was sold. Went and got a pair the next day. Amazing headset, was playing escape from tarkov on pc with these and sounds were absolutely spot on, they’ve been great. I just cannot get them to work on my Xbox at all, the moment I plug it into my controller, I get no sound at all. No matter what I do. But even then, I bought them for my pc so that’s not even a big deal. Highly recommend.
This made me happy, I am looking for a realy cheap headset, and I like the more discrete look on things. I actually got this headset after I watched this video. Great review, great job!
TH-cam notifications have been messed for some reason. I even have the bell enabled for you. For wireless I cannot believe how well they feel and the stereo sound is very good for directional sound. would've preferred no led lights to be honest.
I've just bought a pair, I'm waiting on delivery. I'm upgrading from a Cloud 2 which I've found to be an awesome headset, I just wanted wireless. There are so many in this price range though (A20, G533) I can't wait to try them out, are they that good?
But this headset can be connected to the hyperX external soundcard if you want 7.1 surround. Granted that they will then be on cable, but it's still an option.
Bought these on Amazon for $80 nearly a month ago. Gotta say they are really good, sound pretty good look good. The part I have problems with is the battery life, idk if it's me not charging them all the way or it just doesn't feel like 30 hours. Another issue is that there isn't a battery life meter or a way you can tell how much life is in the headset
Kevin Neville There is battery charger meter, when you hold your mouse cursor over speakers icon on your bottom right corner. My headset lasted from 2-5 days when i bought it, depending on my usage. Now 1-3 days, couple years later. If you don't turn off lights on sides, it decreases your battery life. 2 things that i don't like about them. 1.) I want there would be 2 batteries, 1 in each ear, so when one in use, goes down, you can charge other at the same time. It would increase lithion battery lifetime. You can use it while it is plugged in charger, but not sure if it is charging while you listen at the same time... if it is then it lasts way less when i take off charger. 2.) I want it would come with 2 removable foam cushins, looks like this will last less than 5 years, and i would need to buy another foam. Ideally i would like that brands make foams last longer than battery, because they are cheaper to throw out than buy new foam couple years later. I bought Raycon headphones couple weeks ago, 1 gaming and 1 everyday use, because now at long sessions when i use Hyper x from wake up till sleep they don't hold all day, so i need 2 wireless headphones a day. But Raycon are over 100 euro, but more annoying, everytime when i turn it on, it sings Raycon name, sounds like ad :) and it says power on. Hyper X are more discrete, when i turn on, it only beeps for second. And Hyper X ear cups are big, good for my big ears, and glasses, i feel comfortable even after 12 hour sessions.
I’ve tried these they’re pretty good except in the mic category! If you don’t play online w friends it’s a decent headset w a great look but I wouldn’t make them my main headset
I love my Cloud II and I was looking forward for a wireless headset from them. I think I would've been sold if the design is the same from Cloud II/Alpha but wireless. I think I'll wait for their new ones.
*A PainFul Thumbs up from Morocco , i did gotten the recolver pro ones and it is really tightly clear surround sound effective for gaming , i just started gaming some 4 days ago , on fortnite and CS:GO , keep it up helpful review , i''d like to see more of such reviews about other products ! and also for some gameplays !*
Man I got this headset and the sound is nuts. It's amazing. I love it. And the fit and finish is great, the comfort is unbeatable. But my god this mic is shit. It picks up every single keystroke, ever single breath (not even a mouth-breather, lol) and it's frustrating. Do you think that a pop filter would help with a tiny bit of the breathing and keystroke noise being received? The setup I have, and with my budget after buying these, I cannot get a stand-alone mic for a very long time. Best, Dax
I know I am last for a comment but here is what I think... 1) sound is too low for me (used to play with bose qc35 ) 2) dolby atmos really solved the lack of surround sound. 3) battery life is way better when you turn off the lightings. 4) it have a battery indicator with hyperx app which is good. 5) you can play while charging unlike my bose 6) perfect weight and size .. 2.0 is doing its job with the distance.
The annoying thing about it is the auto shut down when it doesn't track sound after awhile. Sometimes it'll just do it even if there's sound and the mic is a bit problematic being too faint and it doesn't always track well in programs like Discord, even if it's close to your mouth. Other than that, this was my first wireless headsets and I've been on PC since Compaq was a thing so I have to give it around a 7 out of 10 for me.
Hello. i discover your channel today and this video is cool. My opinion : good headphones but the only problem is the white noise that can be heard when the sound is not very loud in a game (calm environment as sometimes in far cry or RDR2). Do you have this white noise in the headphones you tested?
im going to upgrade to the flight from the cloud alpha. the Alpha indeed is a very good headset, but the flight gives similair audio quality in a wireless format. while the alpha has ridiculously long cables. still the alpha will be my first back up headset.
I'm having a hard time picking between ASTRO A50 and HYPERX CLOUD FLIGHT.. Which is more comfortable between the 2? And which wireless headset do you prefer?
Thanks for the video. Do you like these headphones better than the Astro A20s? I don't miss the 7.1 surround sound from other sets but the chat/game mixer is very useful on the Astros
man loved the vid , first one of yours ive ever seen but honestly i think u should add a bit of low profile music in the background and possibly cut the silent parts out
7.1 does not matter on a headphone, I can only think of one true 7.1 headphone which is a Razer one, but I heard that the sound quality is trash on them because you have several small speakers in each earcup, and the audio quality suffers. The rest are virtual 7.1 which are just regular stereo headphones. Personally in games I find the positional audio more accurate with stereo, even on virtual 7.1 with the surround turned off (which makes sense because they are regular stereo headphones afterall)
Hey any chance you can do you a review on the RIG 500 PRO HX GAMING HEADSET? It's something I'm considering purchasing soon so I was wanting a professional opinion. Loving the channel btw.
Are these better than the Stealth 700? Thinking of replacing them after 2 months. They’re not that comfortable and my wife says she can’t hear me well over the mic.
Hello and thanks for the review. As i was researching for this headset i saw some posts about problems with the mic in Ps4 (it does not pic your voice due to noise cancelation) as well as connectivity issues with Ps4 (they say you need to be very close to the console). Is it sth that you have experienced while playing? I would appreciate it if you could give us a feedback on the above issues. Thx.
They've released a CloudX Flight headset for Xbox. Looks like they added a chat mixer on the ear cups. Might be worth checking in to and seeing if they come off better than the Cloud Flight? Just bought a pair for myself and they were $129.99 which I thought was a solid price point.
@@dakota1420 oh yeah $80 they’re worth it. HyperX makes good stuff for their prices. They’re not always the most rigid or offer the most bells and whistles but they’re solid no matter what.
This is a very late comment but I hope you see this, I think you should do a comparison between the cloud flight and the cloud alpha so I can get an idea of what I should buy because I know I want one of the two
This or cloud alpha? I heard the dual chamber design is great, but so is wireless. Another factor for me is comfort so which one is better overall? If i get the alpha, i will plug these into an amp.
I bought the Cloud Revolver S after you gave that so much praise...you think it's worth picking up these to replace those? Only had those for like 8 months though.
I've had a pair of Steelseries Arctis 7 wireless since they came out and loved the simple design of how you adjust them with the velcro, anyways something finally went wrong with them but was able to get them replaced for free. While in the store was looking at what to buy, then return once I got a new pair of Arctis', i picked these up AND I AM INSANELY SURPRISED. I'm not even sure I want my Arctis back, only thing I havent tested is microphone quality.
I have a few questions.. Been following you for a year now nd I picked my a50s.. swapped them out due to battery damage over time got the a20s now. I enjoy them just asmuch.. What I need to know is does this balance voice chat and game chat well enough that it doesn't require me to do it myself like the Astros do. Which is a reason I really enjoy. Also. Do I have to remove the USB drive everytime I stop using my headset nd want to stream hulu on my ps4.. Thnx ahead for the response
now my question is, can you use this headset on pc and xbox at the same time? with my current setup I have the astro a50 wireless. I use the usb to connect to pc and the charging stand while i have an optical cable plugged into my xbox while that cable is still plugged into the charging stand as well. Can i do this with this headset? edit: I am a streamer so i have a XLR mic, Im just wondering if i can use these the same way that i have my astros. Basically can i have them setup to where i can hear both pc and xbox at the same time?
Why do people care so much about the mic? I think it sounds good for what it's meant for: talking to friends while gaming. Do you chat with people all the time outside of games? My friends don't care about how my mic sounds as long as they can understand me.
And see how he started talking on a studio mic but i have the cloud alphas and ive had the alphas for like 1 year now and the mic still sounds mint P.S if your on console or pc and other people are using headsets wich they are it sounds fine!
Hey Jason. I have recently discovered (and subscribed to) the channel through my search for a new gaming headset. I love the in-depth reviews. I have a question for you, and this may be a long read, so I would really appreciate a response. I am primarily a PS4 gamer, but I also have a PS3, as well as an Xbox 360 and an Xbox One. So I am basically looking for a headset that offers compatibility with all of these consoles. Right now, I am using a pair of Kingston HyperX Cloud Revolvers (the original ones). They are an amazing pair of headphones, but the lack of compatibility and EQ settings really is unfortunate. Comfort, sound quality, and compatibility are important to me. I would prefer wireless, but it’s not a necessity. The mic isn’t too important to me, since I don’t play online anymore. Out of all of the headsets that you have had the opportunities to use, what would you recommend? I am perfectly comfortable with spending $150 or more. Thank you so much for the great reviews on the channel, and for taking time to read this. Have a good night!
Yeah they're great but the auto turn off when no audio is present for 10 minutes is fucking annoying Id rather it just die than turn off because everytime it turns off im just about to use it.
Top review as usual by you Jason. One thing was missing from the review that I would really appreciate either Jason or someone with real experience of this headset to answer -- do the HyperX Cloud Flight S have decent Mic Monitoring / SideTone for the PS4/Pro ? A real honest answer from this would be appreciated.
Hey i have seen you test the hyperx cloud flight and logitech g933 can you say which one is better? I can't decide for very long time i thinking about buy one of this headphones mostly for games like Cs:go or Battle royal type like Apex Pubg (answear me plz)
I’m really confused on which headset to get. I have $150 to spend but I keep going back and forth with these 2 headsets. I use a PS4 for gaming and also use a PC from time to time. I want wireless headset because I’m tired of wires. I had the Sony plus for like ever and it’s crapping out on me. So I need an upgrade and the Arctis 7 and hyperx flight seem to come up a lot. I am also looking at the sennheiser game one but it’s not wireless, so these are a few headsets I’m debating on. I want to be able to hear footsteps and know where they are coming from but also want explosions that will also make me feel I’m immersed in the environment. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
they're grea tim wearing them right now had them for a few motnhs. wireless and love the red leds, i make sure they flash though so they take u pless battery rathern than just leaving them static
Hey I need ur help with this. I like everything the only thing stopping me is the mic dosent work when wired with the cable provided. I wanna use these on phonecalls. Is there another cable i can use other than the one hyper x provides. Please let me know if this is possible. Thanks
Got mines a few weeks ago, found that they are loud enough to hear both music and my games from my room to the kitchen ( I’m very close and it sounds like a low volume TV from the kitchen) mics is good, it’s also for on the go music play (although I wish it was also wireless) overall a great headset. Unfortunately the usb that came with it got destroyed but luckily they offer backups at their store so I’m just waiting for it to arrive
I got this headset and after little use it suddenly wouldn't even turn on or charge anymore with no apparent reason as to why. I don't game too often so I'd just leave it hanging up. I only had the pair for like a week or 2. Might be a faulty battery though.
The Hyperx Cloud Flight are comfortable headphones. The build quality is average. It's an all plastic construction with a metal band for adjusting the size. I recently purchased the Cloud Flight headphone and tested them out on the PS4 Pro. The game audio and music listening is pretty good. Where these headphones fall short is the game/ chat mix. The game/chat mix is Awful. The primary reason to buy a gaming headset is for the headphone and mic combination. Game audio and chat mix should be near the top as a reason for selecting a headset for gaming. If the In-game chat is not one of your primary concerns for a headset, I would just use a good quality and comfortable music headphone. I currently have the Hyperx Cloud Alpha also as I am trying to decide between the two. I am leaning towards the Hyperx Cloud Alpha. The game/chat mix was much better than the Cloud Flights.

Thanks for the video. Do you like these headphones better than the Astro A20s? I don't miss the 7.1 surround sound from other sets but the chat/game mixer is very useful on the Astros
Great review, I was tossing up between these and the Turtle Beach Alpha Professionals and you sold me on these guys so thank you. Liked and subbed.
What do you think of them?
man loved the vid , first one of yours ive ever seen but honestly i think u should add a bit of low profile music in the background and possibly cut the silent parts out
7.1 does not matter on a headphone, I can only think of one true 7.1 headphone which is a Razer one, but I heard that the sound quality is trash on them because you have several small speakers in each earcup, and the audio quality suffers. The rest are virtual 7.1 which are just regular stereo headphones. Personally in games I find the positional audio more accurate with stereo, even on virtual 7.1 with the surround turned off (which makes sense because they are regular stereo headphones afterall)
Hey any chance you can do you a review on the RIG 500 PRO HX GAMING HEADSET? It's something I'm considering purchasing soon so I was wanting a professional opinion. Loving the channel btw.
Luke Dickinson my experience is that my buddy can hear an echo. I’m returning them today
Are these better than the Stealth 700? Thinking of replacing them after 2 months. They’re not that comfortable and my wife says she can’t hear me well over the mic.
i always love your reviews on gaming headset's!
Hello and thanks for the review. As i was researching for this headset i saw some posts about problems with the mic in Ps4 (it does not pic your voice due to noise cancelation) as well as connectivity issues with Ps4 (they say you need to be very close to the console). Is it sth that you have experienced while playing? I would appreciate it if you could give us a feedback on the above issues. Thx.
Are these great to hear enemy footsteps in games? And an all round good gaming headset?? Thanks
They've released a CloudX Flight headset for Xbox. Looks like they added a chat mixer on the ear cups. Might be worth checking in to and seeing if they come off better than the Cloud Flight? Just bought a pair for myself and they were $129.99 which I thought was a solid price point.
4yrs later are they worth 80?
@@dakota1420 oh yeah $80 they’re worth it. HyperX makes good stuff for their prices. They’re not always the most rigid or offer the most bells and whistles but they’re solid no matter what.
I bought Artics 7 on July 2018 for 150€ and I bought these ones for 100€ yesterdat and I think these are gonna be better *.*
This is a very late comment but I hope you see this, I think you should do a comparison between the cloud flight and the cloud alpha so I can get an idea of what I should buy because I know I want one of the two
I have it, not bad but im still on the charger many times with it. You can play a whole game without charging, thats true.
This or cloud alpha? I heard the dual chamber design is great, but so is wireless. Another factor for me is comfort so which one is better overall? If i get the alpha, i will plug these into an amp.
I bought the Cloud Revolver S after you gave that so much praise...you think it's worth picking up these to replace those? Only had those for like 8 months though.
Adil honestly the only advantage to flights is wireless from revolver.
I've had a pair of Steelseries Arctis 7 wireless since they came out and loved the simple design of how you adjust them with the velcro, anyways something finally went wrong with them but was able to get them replaced for free. While in the store was looking at what to buy, then return once I got a new pair of Arctis', i picked these up AND I AM INSANELY SURPRISED. I'm not even sure I want my Arctis back, only thing I havent tested is microphone quality.
Any updates?
Solid review 👍🏻
I am looking at these to replace my pulse elites. I loved the pulse elites sound signature. Are these similar?
If the Audeze Mobius turns out to be good you may need to expand your price bracket for "Top 5 Gaming Headsets".
I have a few questions..
Been following you for a year now nd I picked my a50s.. swapped them out due to battery damage over time got the a20s now. I enjoy them just asmuch..
What I need to know is does this balance voice chat and game chat well enough that it doesn't require me to do it myself like the Astros do. Which is a reason I really enjoy. Also. Do I have to remove the USB drive everytime I stop using my headset nd want to stream hulu on my ps4..
Thnx ahead for the response
now my question is, can you use this headset on pc and xbox at the same time? with my current setup I have the astro a50 wireless. I use the usb to connect to pc and the charging stand while i have an optical cable plugged into my xbox while that cable is still plugged into the charging stand as well. Can i do this with this headset?
edit: I am a streamer so i have a XLR mic, Im just wondering if i can use these the same way that i have my astros. Basically can i have them setup to where i can hear both pc and xbox at the same time?
love ur vids keep up the good work!
mic is decent, but pretty trash. But honestly everyone are getting these with a mic like a blue yeti.
KekBeek it’s not about the mic but that’s what people only care about
Why do people care so much about the mic? I think it sounds good for what it's meant for: talking to friends while gaming. Do you chat with people all the time outside of games? My friends don't care about how my mic sounds as long as they can understand me.
@@uranus5209 I just hate mic that have echos
And see how he started talking on a studio mic but i have the cloud alphas and ive had the alphas for like 1 year now and the mic still sounds mint
P.S if your on console or pc and other people are using headsets wich they are it sounds fine!
Yep
is the sounds as good as cloud alpha?
Only unfortunate part I found in these is that there is no mic when ur hooked up to an Xbox or phone.
Sir, should i buy these for 112€ or the sennheiser hd 599 for 99€ + mod mic 50€ = 150€ ? (For Gaming) are the extra 50€ worth ?
Hey Jason. I have recently discovered (and subscribed to) the channel through my search for a new gaming headset. I love the in-depth reviews. I have a question for you, and this may be a long read, so I would really appreciate a response.
I am primarily a PS4 gamer, but I also have a PS3, as well as an Xbox 360 and an Xbox One. So I am basically looking for a headset that offers compatibility with all of these consoles.
Right now, I am using a pair of Kingston HyperX Cloud Revolvers (the original ones). They are an amazing pair of headphones, but the lack of compatibility and EQ settings really is unfortunate.
Comfort, sound quality, and compatibility are important to me. I would prefer wireless, but it’s not a necessity. The mic isn’t too important to me, since I don’t play online anymore.
Out of all of the headsets that you have had the opportunities to use, what would you recommend? I am perfectly comfortable with spending $150 or more.
Thank you so much for the great reviews on the channel, and for taking time to read this.
Have a good night!
Chase Alexander Vann I’m not Jason but I’ve heard that the hyper x alpha is a good choice
Are these around the ear and does your ear touch the plastic part
Yeah they're great but the auto turn off when no audio is present for 10 minutes is fucking annoying Id rather it just die than turn off because everytime it turns off im just about to use it.
Top review as usual by you Jason.
One thing was missing from the review that I would really appreciate either Jason or someone with real experience of this headset to answer -- do the HyperX Cloud Flight S have decent Mic Monitoring / SideTone for the PS4/Pro ?
A real honest answer from this would be appreciated.
they are such good headphones sound quality is great recommend getting them only thing is $300 dollars in australia
Im watching this review because they're $169 at jb-hifi right now not $300.
Hey i have seen you test the hyperx cloud flight and logitech g933 can you say which one is better? I can't decide for very long time i thinking about buy one of this headphones mostly for games like Cs:go or Battle royal type like Apex Pubg (answear me plz)
I’ve never really tried anything else but these and I love them..
when the battery dies..can you connect a cable and use it like that?
Who makes you're desk or is that a DIY special?
hyperx cloud flight vs logitech g933 ?
HyperX
Who else has one of these and only hears top end now? No bass, just bad mids and tops. Maybe my ears are just gone...
Just bought these, and so far so good.
How about now?
@@blackhawk3436 they are great worth the $$$
@@ChorizoThe12 eyy ty
@@blackhawk3436 no problem
Kinda late.... but would u prefer The “Cloud flights “ or the “Cloud alphas” .... would appreciate it if u reply. Tnx keep it up
Andrei Cruz alphas are great. Would go with them
@@papazype sound on the alpha is too low on ps4
I’m really confused on which headset to get. I have $150 to spend but I keep going back and forth with these 2 headsets. I use a PS4 for gaming and also use a PC from time to time. I want wireless headset because I’m tired of wires. I had the Sony plus for like ever and it’s crapping out on me. So I need an upgrade and the Arctis 7 and hyperx flight seem to come up a lot. I am also looking at the sennheiser game one but it’s not wireless, so these are a few headsets I’m debating on. I want to be able to hear footsteps and know where they are coming from but also want explosions that will also make me feel I’m immersed in the environment. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
they're grea tim wearing them right now had them for a few motnhs. wireless and love the red leds, i make sure they flash though so they take u pless battery rathern than just leaving them static
Mine don't charge, I charge them overnight and in the morning they're dead.
there is no surround sound on this?
tks for review, Where I can buy this headphone? I am living in Vietnam
vậy đã mua được chưa bạn eey? >.
Amazon
Hey I need ur help with this. I like everything the only thing stopping me is the mic dosent work when wired with the cable provided. I wanna use these on phonecalls. Is there another cable i can use other than the one hyper x provides. Please let me know if this is possible. Thanks
It is because the cable is only a 3 pole cable, you need a 4 pole cable to use mic. (TRRS) You can get them on Amazon/eBay or wherever.
hyperx cloud revolver S or hyperx cloud flight?
Got mines a few weeks ago, found that they are loud enough to hear both music and my games from my room to the kitchen ( I’m very close and it sounds like a low volume TV from the kitchen) mics is good, it’s also for on the go music play (although I wish it was also wireless) overall a great headset. Unfortunately the usb that came with it got destroyed but luckily they offer backups at their store so I’m just waiting for it to arrive
Any updates? Have to switched up ur headset or are u still using them? Any feedback?
how do i make them wired they disconnect every 5 seconds when im charging them and they didnt even last an hr when i charged them for 3 hrs
the sound of this is equal or better than the alphas?
What is a great headset that will let me have god hearing to Pubg player footsteps and that also has a good mic?
Just got these. Tried on in store, bought.
I got this headset and after little use it suddenly wouldn't even turn on or charge anymore with no apparent reason as to why. I don't game too often so I'd just leave it hanging up. I only had the pair for like a week or 2. Might be a faulty battery though.
Are these better sounding wise than the cloud alphas
So they don't have the option to control the game chat? I thought they did.
The Hyperx Cloud Flight are comfortable headphones. The build quality is average. It's an all plastic construction with a metal band for adjusting the size. I recently purchased the Cloud Flight headphone and tested them out on the PS4 Pro. The game audio and music listening is pretty good. Where these headphones fall short is the game/ chat mix. The game/chat mix is Awful. The primary reason to buy a gaming headset is for the headphone and mic combination. Game audio and chat mix should be near the top as a reason for selecting a headset for gaming. If the In-game chat is not one of your primary concerns for a headset, I would just use a good quality and comfortable music headphone. I currently have the Hyperx Cloud Alpha also as I am trying to decide between the two. I am leaning towards the Hyperx Cloud Alpha. The game/chat mix was much better than the Cloud Flights.
Michael James do i neee bluetooth for my pc to use this?
There is a firmware update that makes them work with the switch and allows users to switch off the LEDs at all times
Where can I find this update good sir?
Would you recommend these for Video Editing as well as gaming? I'd really appreciate your feedback on this.
They’re super good for fps games and just games in general. If you want editing headphones I would recommend Arctis 7’s
Great idea on doing a Golds 2 review. They are still the best for ps4
There 100 bucks now on Amazon should I get these or the stealth 600 for the same price
