@@koyoshima45 Hey, if you care about bass, look into ISK HD9999 or ISK MDH9000. The second ones are more bassy, but the first ones are greater overall and already have a noticeable V signature. They are also noticeably better than HyperX Cloud Alpha, I tested both.
@Kay0s it's super convenient to have it hooked up to the headset instead of having a separate huge mic on your desk. Also, the mics on these gaming headsets have good noise cancellation so only your voice is heard nothing else.
@@namlin idk but mine isnt ultra quality what can i do? I have my mic plugged right in, and ive seen many reviews with sick ass quality on the mic, i bought mine today and i will go to the store and change it to another one.
2:30 I can DEFINITELY agree as me and my family used to have like 10 (legit) 10-20$ headphones which all had fallen off the table while attached to a tablet / phone, so they broke. I have now got 50$ Skullcandy Grind's and they have this and I love that idea, looking forward for the HyperX Cloud Alpha. Awesome review thing though ;) Cheers!
I've had this for about 7 months now and still sounds great. They are very comfortable and mic quality is pretty good for a headset with a price point of around 90$-100$. I would highly recommend these for anyone new or even familiarized with headset buying especially at the good price point.
SickPranks 58 hello, I bought them and the audio is very good, the footsteps of the enemies are perfectly heard. by chance have you noticed a lower sound compared to other headphones? to me it seems lower in volume but more precise, what do you say?
@@rubenoliveira3127 thank you soo much I was really confused because of this, that should I go with Cloud 2 for the soundcard or the Alpha...now it's Alpha :)
All those impressive features for under $100? Wow...I’m picking up a pair although I own various Astro and Steel Series headsets already. Quality review as usual, bro. Thanks!
One thing I wish reviewers would mention about this headset is that a lot of people has had problems with crosstalk/audio leakage with these, myself included. Especially when I watch movies on Discord, my friends can hear the audio from my microphone.
I too, love the traditional headset design-makes me feel like a bad ass. 😉 HyperX is leagues ahead of the competition in terms of price to performance.
great review man. I just got the Cloud 2 and I love them. I agree that I wish the cloud 2 had the detachable cable. But I will say that the Cloud 2 does come with a better carrying/ storage bag.
I have this headset and LOVE it. I also recommend the Brainwavz Replacement Memory Foam Earpads, I have very large ears and these are almost necessary.
@Korvus I'm sure of it, and for me the replaceable cable makes it SUPER worth it. My headset in the past would break every 5 to 6 months because the cord wore out so I had to buy a 12-month warranty on it every time I got the replacement. These are great as the original cord that came with them broke so I just bought a cheap TRRS cable (a cable with a mic line in it as well as the stereo lines). The original cord was great quality though and I broke it in a stupid way (I dropped the headset and it pulled on the cord and basically bent the connector). The build quality of the headphones is great and I am still using these. So I definitely recommend them.
scum bag hello, I bought them and the audio is very good, the footsteps of the enemies are perfectly heard. by chance have you noticed a lower sound compared to other headphones? to me it seems lower in volume but more precise, what do you say?
it's sound quality is amazing for a 100$ gaming headset. you don't need 7.1 surround sound to pin point footsteps, stereo is good enough. 7.1 virtual surround sound is trash.
Mine broke in under a year because of the cord, mic was also always picking up sounds from RUclips or games I was playing which is extremely obnoxious. Never mistreated them whatsoever.
I am all impresed , but I still cannot understand that why the new hyper x cloud alpha does not have 7.1 sourround sound , but the old hyper x cloud 2 do have this feature
there is excatly one thing on that headset that drove me crazy: That volume adjuster knob has a much larger diameter than the cable and is right on the hight of most tables. Therefore it will constantly get stuck on the table top when it is hanging down straight. I put a piece of shrink tube over it to make it slide over the tabletop edge.
I bought these over a year ago , my 1st pair of Hyper X cans, I absolutely love them, I bought a pair of Revolvers today but didn’t try them yet, I’m sure they will rock to!!! Like to have options, great video
I subbed because i liked how you did the video, by far it felt like you paid a lot of attention to the video and the video just felt good in general to watch... I've been doing a lot of research on the internet and reviews/reddits etc and there is a common complaint that while using the microphone in-game sounds will be heard by people in voicechat programs like discord while using microphone.... So while the microphone quality just using the headset is good, supposedly the microphone quality while playing a game (which is when most of us will be using it) somehow picks up what you are listening to in-game. You have any thoughts or knowledge on this common complaint?
Honestly used to be set on these but if you look for non-gaming headsets you get much better. I got the beyerdynamic dt990's and they're only a bit more.
Just picked up my Alpha's at Best Buy Black Friday sale for $80 bucks, and if your a Xbox guy like me get these asap, do not buy the Cloud 2's mainly because the 7.1 dongle don't work on Xbox so you will be stuck using the Xbox setting's adjusting volume and muting your microphone and u will get tired of that quickly lol the Alpha's has a inline audio cable that's detachable
You're right about the removable cable. I'm fed up of breaking headsets by having cables coming off the internals by an accidental tug or the cable catching on something. That alone will have me going for these. Shame about the lack of 7.1 and non-changeable ear pads.
I hope someone sees this, I’m not sure if I should get this or the Cloud II. I’m a gamer who usually plays games like CoD and battle royales so I need to have good sound to hear footsteps and movement, which headset should I get?
I just bought Cloud Alpha yesterday and it has really good quality sound cause i tested Cloud II too in a tech market it has difference. But I have little cons about Alpha, it has a clamp force on just bottom of my ear and jaws. It is of pressure a lil bit and that makes me feel uncomfortable. I cant be sure it goes off ? Cloud II had more comfort. Will it go off
I would HIGHLY recommend that people buy replacement ear pads for these. The ear pads wear down pretty quick and the speaker inside each ear cup is larger than what was inside the could 1 and 2. So if you have large ears like I do, those speakers will chafe and hurt your ears over time. Other than that, this headset is great.
Nobody seems to answer only one question I have, is it loud on stock motherboard without an amp? I get it, it looks good and stuff, no video on RUclips about cloud Alpha mentions anything about it's loudness, please reply fast before it gets out of stock for me.
Is the Cloud mix the same/ good/better than the alpha? And can you buy it from like America with ebay, because here in germany it's not available to buy yet and I want to have it at christmas.
I enjoyed this headset but the one con that I could not deal with, was they just did not fit me comfortably. I have a big head so they felt tight and would give me headaches.
I bought it as soon as it got released in my country (around february), had a Cloud 2 before. I sold it next day becouse the comfort and the sound quality was horrible compared to the Cloud 2 and i'm still using it. I really don't know what you all love in the Alpha, maybe it's just my opinion
With one problem: this headset generates feedback signal from speakers to mic line. As the result all my team-mates have echo. Problem is localized in the "remote control" unit, I believe. I send the first one back, got replacement unit but it is still there. So, this is a great headset, just unusable ;-)
It's always like that. You can even remove the mic and the headset will still generate the echo. It's because this is not an acoustic issue but electric issue.
Does the alpha have 7.1 surround? I was think about getting the cloud 2s and now I saw this, one of the main reasons I wanted the cloud twos was the 7.1 surround with the sound card on the wire. I just wanna know if the alphas have that as well.
Xbox one. Party chat people heard echo through my set. I factory reset Xbox (per tech support). Then people heard static when I talked (no echo). The static went away when I plugged in "puck". Don't get why putting 3.5mm on controller if I have to use puck anyway. Any thoughts?
I don't know if you would reply or not but how do these compare to Logitech G Pro? I am Planning on getting that cause where I live, it's way cheaper than these right now?
Pls help me i am stuck between some of the headsets !!! Hyper cloud II / hyper cloud Alpha / steel series artics 5 / Sennheiser gsp 300 which one should i go for ?
mh752/751 are just better, better sound, lighter, better confort, better mic, it even comes with a entry preamp/dac, cheaper... This are popular bc hyperx paid the right persons to wear it, try to listen celebration day on those, its just not right, not bad but there are better options
There is also the senheiser gsp 300 which is really good and at the same price. Just a preference but I really think I will buy the senheiser instead of the hyperx cloud alpha because of the style of the senheiser wich you can get in white and other colors (I have a white setup) and because I don't travel I don't need all the extras from kingston. If someone have a gsp 300 can you tell me if you have issues with it thanks you :) Bed English sory
I want to love mine but I don’t because they don’t block out enough noise I want headphones to put me in a different world when I put them on so all I can here is my game I can hear everything through them☹️
Beyerdynamic for life dude. HyperX ain't bad. I've had a pair of these and the sound was oké as for this price range. The mic on them is sick, most definetly one of the better out there if you set it up right.
I donno about the box man previously i had the cloud 2 and now bought the alpha s and i must say compating the boxes and the cushioning in the cloud 2 box with the cheap plastic of the alphas it kinda let me down a bit
i loved this headset to death, but i can't hear footsteps well. returned and bought astro's wit miz amp for xbox..sadly xbox aren't made soundcards, otherwise i was going to buy the revolver s
Bass = low frequencies Footsteps = high frequencies (treble) Clouds are treble focused and can't handle bass Currently idk about the alpha, but the cloud 2 has 9khz spike @ 100dB, it makes ME sick cause I'm sensitive to highs. I recommend you buy a natural sounding headphone, if possible an open-back one with flat frequency response (sennheiser, audio technica, beyerdynamic, audeze, hifiman, monoprice...)
as far as hearing footsteps they are okay can be improved using eq however the location is not the greatest sometimes the sound signature is ambigous like you can tell they are on the left but not exactly where they are. I got them for £30 so it was really good another problem i had with these headphones that people could hear your headphones sometimes which is really annoying.
The mute Button does not actually mute the headphones mic completely, it still leaks the sound from the headphones Mic. Dont know is the issues with my headphones or it works same way
One thing that worries me are those little cables between the headband and the earcups. Do they break easily? Like i had one headphones with those tiny cables and now they are broken.
Considering how long they and how they're braided, it shouldn't break easily. It's long enough for the earcups to swivel at maximum angles and still have some slack. Unless it catches onto something and is forcefully pulled, there's no reason it'll break on you for regular use.
Like the terrible reviewer I am, I forgot to add in sound quality LOL (It happens)
Here it is:
It is awesome. To me, it was the right amount of bass and highs. Mids not as noticeable like in most gaming headphones.
I used my Sennhesier 598 SE as my reference.
The sound quality is awesome and because the earcups cup your ears so well, the isolation is fantastic for something that doesn't have ANC.
Sound quality is definitely not something you'll have to worry about :)

@@gabe2632 the revolver s 7.1 surround sound dongle will work with these on console, honestly dont need em though imo.
a openback headphone with much greater soundstage and imaging like the hd600 would be alot better for gaming yeah.
i loved this headset to death, but i can't hear footsteps well. returned and bought astro's wit miz amp for xbox..sadly xbox aren't made soundcards, otherwise i was going to buy the revolver s
Would those headphones be better In console or on pc
Which is better alpha or cloud 2?? I love big bass, so i can hear footstep better
Bass = low frequencies
Footsteps = high frequencies (treble)
Clouds are treble focused and can't handle bass
Currently idk about the alpha, but the cloud 2 has 9khz spike @ 100dB, it makes ME sick cause I'm sensitive to highs.
I recommend you buy a natural sounding headphone, if possible an open-back one with flat frequency response (sennheiser, audio technica, beyerdynamic, audeze, hifiman, monoprice...)
Can you tell me i have Cloud 2 what is diff from alpha and cloud??
Why doesn’t it sound clear
Are the headphones good for R6 Siege? hearing footsteps and locating exactly where they are coming from?
as far as hearing footsteps they are okay can be improved using eq however the location is not the greatest sometimes the sound signature is ambigous like you can tell they are on the left but not exactly where they are. I got them for £30 so it was really good another problem i had with these headphones that people could hear your headphones sometimes which is really annoying.
is this the ones with mesh drivers instead of plastic
i just bought mine and this came in recomended.
Cloud alpha or teufel cage?
The mute Button does not actually mute the headphones mic completely, it still leaks the sound from the headphones Mic. Dont know is the issues with my headphones or it works same way
There's probably an issue with yours. The mute switch is supposed to cut off all microphone functions so there should be no pick up.
If your mute button does not work like mine, remove the mic when you have to mute
I dont know what to do should i get this first or a gaming chair first?
Gaming chairs aren't a necessity, but good audio is a must have :) Buy it with my links in the description!
Who is the seller

Which should I get? Razer Kraken pro v2 or HyperX Cloud Alpha?
Alphas
Just purchased these should be here Saturday👀
The bass is great
Ik this was 10 months ago but do u still have them with any problems??
Myles Davison no problem at all still working like new💯
Is this good for FPS games?
One thing that worries me are those little cables between the headband and the earcups.
Do they break easily? Like i had one headphones with those tiny cables and now they are broken.
Considering how long they and how they're braided, it shouldn't break easily. It's long enough for the earcups to swivel at maximum angles and still have some slack. Unless it catches onto something and is forcefully pulled, there's no reason it'll break on you for regular use.
I have cloud alphas, and i love them.
Is good for ps4 and can i use them by plugin in controller of ps4 and listen and speak
