HyperX Alpha Wireless

The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless retains the same classic red and black design as its wired counterpart, improves internals, and cuts the cord while it's at it. Although it’s wireless and sports a 300-hour battery life, for $200, there are more features and compatibility options to be desired.
