At $100, and you can find it for less pretty easily, the HyperX Cloud is an affordable and excellent stereo headset for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One (if you have the adapter Microsoft sells separately). It works with mobile devices, but based on the length and weight of its cluttered cables, there’s no practical use for listening on your iPhone with the HyperX Cloud. More options for sound control would be appreciated, but as it stands, this is a fantastic-sounding, lightweight headset that puts its soft-grip comfort above everything else.
