Review on HyperX Cloud MIX - Wired Gaming Headset + Bluetooth, Game and Go, Detachable Microphone, Signature HyperX Comfort, Lightweight, Multi-platform Compatibility - Black by Carlos Reyes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I liked the original Hyperx cloud, sorry I didn't like this one.

I liked them. They sound fantastic, more bass than I expected but that's ok. Bluetooth works well for listening to music on your phone, other than that I haven't tested it. The ear pads are a little small, they may not fit large ears, my average and borderline. The rest of the pads are nice and comfortable. So why should I give them one star? I bought them for a specific reason that everyone would buy a gaming headset instead of buying good headphones and a separate mic; They have a built-in microphone. A microphone that sounds good will have crosstalk with drivers. What does that mean? That means the people I play with hear what's coming through the headphones. You can hear the music I'm playing, Battlefield explosions, Windows sound alerts. That's just unacceptable for a microphone. And that was for two headsets, I returned the first, received the second pair, same problem. And it's not the mic itself, it's an internal issue with the headset. I say this because I can unplug the mic from the headset and the problem persists. Sorry HyperX, but this is the last purchase I will make of your headset. I say this because I've read reviews of your other headsets like Cloud Alpha and seen similar complaints.

Pros
  • Built-in microphone and boom microphone. Impedance: 40 ohms
Cons
  • High price
