HyperX Cloud Stinger Core Wireless Gaming Headset for PS4 PS5 PC Lightweight Durable Steel Slider Noise Cancelling Microphone

I haven’t owned these for long (1 week), so I’ll update this review if they show issues too soon. I use this headset with my gaming PC. I’ve never owned a wireless headset before, but these have definitely converted me from wired to wireless. My last headset was the Steelseries Arctis Nova 1 (wired), which was an absolute pain to set up. However, these were relatively simple. I plugged the USB into the back, held down the power button on the headset, and it connected quickly. I also didn’t have to download any form of software, which is great. It works without. I haven’t had any problems with losing connectivity either. I can move around my room easily and still hear and speak through them without issue. The battery life is impressive, especially after hours of continuous use. I just charge it at night when I’m done, with no interruptions so far. If I were being picky, I’d say the charging cable is a bit short. You won’t be able to use the headset while charging with the cable provided. The noise cancelling definitely works, and to me, the sound quality is great. I read a few reviews about the volume wheel not being too great, but I haven’t had any problems. The microphone is decent. The volume of my voice is easily adjusted with how far the mic is. My friends said the quality was good but not as good as my last wired headset. But it doesn’t sound bad at all. The headset is light, which is great. So the freedom of having a headset that moves with you but also isn’t heavy is a bonus. However, whilst the headband is comfortable, I’m finding a slight discomfort with the earcups after a few hours of use. Overall, I think the RRP price of £74.99 is too much. I would want a better quality mic and more comfort for that price. However, I definitely think these are worth getting when reduced. £49.99 seems reasonable.

Near perfect - good microphone and good sound quality. The only drawback is the awful battery life - if you can’t play while wired at the same time then you are going to be in trouble - the battery life makes it close to wired headphones.

Really comfortable headphones. There are no connection issues with them whatsoever. Use them for playing PS5. Sound quality is wonderful. What I don’t like is that you have to take usb dongle out from PS5 when you not using them, if you want sound from to speakers. Also, when you just turn them on after having them off, sound is barely noticeable, so you have to adjust volume up.

Ideal wireless headset, my cat chewed through the last 2 headsets(they were wired) I had.

These HyperX headphones are a great value! With a long-lasting battery life, they keep going for hours without interruption. While the sound quality isn't top-of-the-line, it's definitely decent for the price point, delivering an enjoyable listening experience. If you're looking for affordable wireless headphones that offer solid performance and reliability, these are definitely worth considering.

always liked hyperX headphones, had a few over the years, these are the budget wireless range but perform very well, good sound and microphone is excellent, my only complaint is the volume wheel is very easy to turn and is situated in a place that if I turn my head it touches my shoulder and adjusts the volume, would have liked the wheel to be a bit stiiffer to move, maybe I just got a pair with a loose wheel and it is not like that on others but can only review what I got. for the price they are good comfortable lightweight headphones

Would not recommend, I got it on sale for £40 rather than £75 and still would not even get it. Sound is pretty good but it is NOT closed cup at ALL. Sound leaks out and you can hear people so clearly. They are quite comfortable and light. And the mic is very 50/50, hit or miss. My friends prefer the audio from my current turtle beach headphones. Overall not worth it and will be returning and going back to my wired headphones..

Looking for a WFH headset I could also use for gaming. Second time not so lucky. These are well build, great visual design, good sound, but there's just one problem like with so many headsets of all manufacturers. The microphone sensitivity is just far too weak for PC, where customers were often struggling to hear me. I work in IT and I work from home and they just didn't do the job I needed despite spending a good amount of time looking at drivers as is often recommended on this widespread issue with Hyper X headsets. On PS4, I was able to set microphone sensitivity - if it was just for PS4 - they would have been perfect for that purpose. Returned and refund was easy, so no issues there.
