HyperX Cloud Alpha Gaming Headset Headphone Wired Detachable Noise Cancelling Microphone Dual Chamber Drivers Memory Foam Over-ear Soft Leatherette for PC Xbox Nintendo Switch PS4 Black Red (Renewed)

They are nice and comfy, I use them on my PC for gaming, on my switch and sometimes on my phone, they are nice and loud, the volume control works well, but sometimes moves without me noticing. The mute button works good, although sometimes others can hear a little sound glitch when you switch it on and off when I'm on a call on Discord. The cable is a tad bit long so I have to tie it or have it hang on my lap when I play. The mic is also awesome you can adjust it to your liking.Overall, the headset is great and has given me no real issues so far, it's been almost a year since my purchase and they still work great! definitely worth it!

Bought this as a gift for my brother since his old headset died on him. Works great, built pretty well, sound and mic quality aren’t bad. He was very pleased with it and now uses it daily.

This is all you need. Works great! Sounds clear on both ends!

My dad loves these. He is very hard of hearing and uses these in combination with a small amplifier for watching TV. The only issue we had with them so far was the earpads peeling, so sad that everyone uses that material when they know it's going to peel but replacement pads were cheap and easy enough to install, it takes a bit of patient but it's doable. If you want loud though, these are very loud.

I just got this headset and couldn't be happier. I was a little skeptical when reading reviews that said their headsets came with a foul odor, but I did not notice any bad smell. In fact, they smelled brand new, like a new car smell. They looked brand new too. Mine did not come in the original box, but everything the headset should come with was in the box that they came in, and it was packaged nicely.First I plugged them into my phone and listened to music. The sound quality for music is pretty nice! Not anything spectacular or mind blowing for music, but what can you expect from a gaming headset?Let's move on to gaming performance. Wow. These sound great while playing Modern Warfare on Xbox one. I could easily locate my enemies, game noises sounded clear and distinct, the bass was definitely there but not overpowering, and gunfire sounds great.My buddies immediately noticed the difference in mic quality. I'm coming from the Turtle Beach Stealth 600s. Those had mediocre sound quality at best, and the mic was absolute garbage. My team mates could never hear me while speaking normally, so I would have to yell into the mic if I wanted to be heard. But with the Alphas my teammates heard me loud and clear every time. They never had to ask me "what?", And I never got flat out ignored because I wasn't even heard.Since I'm gaming on the Xbox one, I'm not able to purchase and use the Dolby 7.1 surround sound adapter that you can buy for these, but I found a solution. By purchasing Dolby Atmos surround sound audio for $15, and then enabling them in the Xbox settings for headphones, I was able to get full virtual surround sound out of these.And as the name implied, these feel just like a cloud sitting on top of your head. The ear cushions are extremely soft and made out of leatherette. The head band has quite a bit of soft, comfortable padding that sits comfortably on the top of your head. Honestly you hardly notice these are even on your head. The only con that some people may find with these in terms of comfortability is that due to the earpads being made out of fake leather, your ears could possibly get a bit warm after playing for long periods of time.But all in all, I'd say these headphones are pretty spectacular. I was looking at the Cloud 2's, the Sennheiser GSP 300s, and the Steelseries Arctis 5s. I'm extremely happy that I made the decision to get the Alphas over those, and I will be sticking with Hyper X in the future.

I have one of these Kingston Cloud Alpha headsets and I really like it. I work from home and am on a lot of virtual meetings. I really like this headset model so wanted to get another one for my work space in our 2nd home that I sometimes use.I ordered the "renewed" headset because that was the only option for the Cloud headset like I have. Headset arrived with one of the foam pads loose in the package. I tried to put it on and couldn't so I processed a return with replacement of the same product. Amazon shipped the replacement without waiting for the return. I dropped the return at UPS yesterday.The replacement headset arrived yesterday and this time neither of the foam pads are installed! See the attached photo. This time The return option was only for refund (which is what I wanted anyway). Returning this headset and already ordered a Cloud III instead this time. Will need to make another trip into town to drop the return @ UPS... Hopefully no issues with a new headset.

I have now purchased three of these headsets. I love the microphone and the comfort. I had one "break" after years of use and it just took a bit of work to piece it back together--two screws had come loose. It works perfectly after minor "surgery."

awesome sound and is super comfy for long gaming sessions. The build is solid, and the memory foam ear cushions make it feel great to wear.
