Review on Renewed HyperX Cloud Flight S Wireless Gaming Headset with Detachable Microphone - PC and PS4 Compatible by Makoto Arihori ᠌

Could not be worse! Waste of money.

These headphones were a gift that I was given. I use it on my desktop computer (for games) and my laptop (for work), and it is shared around teams and Whatsapp. I have to deal with them on a daily basis. The microphone is fairly large, and all that connects it to anything is a 3.5-millimeter jack connector that is quite fragile. There is no latch, therefore nothing. Because of this, the microphone will turn off if it comes into contact with your shoulder, the wires (while they are charging), or even if you just take them off and set them down on the table. The 3.5 mm port will move away from the headphones by approximately 1 mm, and everything else will remain the same. As a consequence of this, I have to put it back ten times each day; however, the thing that causes me the most anxiety is when I have to talk about work; I put in a lot of effort and I talk for a long time, but after twenty seconds I realize that the microphone has moved away again. This happens 100,500 times each day. The microphone will break contact as soon as it detects the slightest amount of pressure being applied to it and will move away if it is touched at all. In this particular instance, the headphones do not provide any signal to indicate that the microphone is unplugged or switched off. Yes, but I don't understand why they would save on something as essential as a penny mount on headphones that cost so much. This is not the right choice for you if you prioritize ease of movement and comfort over the health of your nerves.

Pros
  • Design, aural quality, and a snug comfortable fit
Cons
  • Microphone
