There’s so much to love about the phenomenal sound quality and battery life provided by the HyperX Cloud II Wireless. Too bad the lack of a dedicated 3.5 mm jack makes it useless between charges or as general headphones.

HyperX’s latest gaming headset is the Cloud II Wireless, a wire-free version of its flagship wired headset. It’s more comfortable than many other options, and its USB-C charging and sound quality make for an impressive package.

The HyperX Cloud II Wireless is a simple, high-quality gaming headset with amazing sound, just like its wired cousin. Its wireless compatibility is, likewise, top-notch. Though it lacks a couple of advanced customization features that one might look for in a $149.99 headset, its fundamentals are sound, and that’s more than enough to make it worth the price.
