I agree!
Techne back at it again with an awesome comparison of two awesome headsets. I got the Cloud II Wireless two weeks ago and it’s hands-down my favorite headset I’ve ever owned and I’ve gone through some headsets. I really wanted to love the Arctic Pro Wireless but the sound just doesn’t beat HyperX sound, unless you go audiophile headphones. Would do the Penrose but I already own the Mobius so I just wanted an alternative style headset.

Hey do ur Cloud Core Wireless make a quiet white noise?
Thanks for the advice and review! I wanna buy the core because of the price mostly, but I also have a small head and don't use the mic because I have another mic. Sad thing is tho, I can't find them anywhere in my country's shops. Such a shame.
Finally you did comparison and great review bro ☺️☺️
Thanks dude, another great comparison. If you don’t mind, please do another comparison between Astro A20 Gen 2, Core Wireless and a few more headsets around the same price point 🙏🏼😊 Don’t worry it’s not your ears, HyperX headsets do have quite a bit lower volume than most other headsets. I think it’s a no brainer which one to choose and that’s 100% Core Wireless. If both have the same sound and to my ears the mic sounds the same on both as well, so unless an extra 10 hours of battery matters to someone, definitely the Core Wireless.

I've had the original Clouds forever, I think they are pretty much the same as the Core so ill be getting them. Just an upgrade to wireless for me
How do the wireless versions compare to the wired version? Is there a lot of delay? Which is better bang for your buck?
I bought my first cloud II wireless and it lasted for 3 yrs before they completely died. They were amazing. I ended up accidentally buying the cloud core wireless on accident and Ik why they were $60 cheaper and I am so happy with them.
Thanks for a thorough and engaging review as always bro :D Any possibility of weakness in a hinge is a massive deal. It's the reason I'll probably never buy a SS Arctis headset again. Had the OG Arctis 5, unfortunately mic died and warranty replacement was the re-release of the Arctis 5. Hinge/cup didn't last long. Fortunately, deemed factory defect by retailer and they gave me a credit. Bought the Arctis Pro (non-dac) which had a good 3 year innings but the right cup cracked at the hinge from normal use. Treated them very delicately. Average to below average sound quality, terrible build quality. I'm done. Gonna miss the chat mix wheel, but nothing I can't manage with EarTrumpet + Keybinds. Probably gonna pick up a Cloud 3 Wireless, unfortunately Cloud 2s are no longer available in my country and importing wouldn't be worth the added cost.
Your review got me to buy the cloud 2 wireless a long time ago...they have been solid over the last several months. The best wireless set I have had, but I have had the occasional sound drop out/disconnect. It comes back after a couple of seconds, but it is annoying when it (rarely) happens.

Whats the best headset that easy on the head ? After a gaming session the top of my head hurt I'm currently using turtle beach 600 whireless
I have a feeling hyper x will be coming with some new headsets soon and will have some actual good mics
Which hyperx would you suggest? Prices have changed since this video. Speaking on sound I love loud headsets. I'm like you with my earring I just wish the headsets would get a little bit louder. I often have them on max volume

Hi everyone need ur help: Hyper cloud 2 wireless or Razer blackshark v2 pro wireless?
Please test if they have White Noise at the background, like a hiss sound. When no sound is playing. Many peoples report this on hyper x
dang we got some bangers for the holidays this year
thanks for the comparision.. i got a moral. save a few bucks get the cloud core wireless its almost a rebrand by adding some build features nothing much the mic and sound are crazy same
Cloud core wireless sounds amazing with Dolby Atmos. I recommend that if you want the punch. On my laptop it sounds better than on my PS4.
Thank you for this comparison. I have 2 x Cloud II wireless for my PC and PS5 but I might get the Core Wireless for work. Knowing performance is just the same I would rather go with budget version for my work environment. Especially with $140 difference here in Australia.

@Yummy Tested. Sounds just as good. I do not use the 7.1 feature of the Cloud II. So, if I need to buy anymore, I might stick with the Core as I don't think the $140 difference for the Cloud II is worth it.
Thanks man this helped me a lot
Awesome Video! Since the core model works fine with ps5 and the 3d sound configuration I guess the CLOUD 2 can do it too, right? Thank you in advance x3
What about plugging the cool Cloud 2 mic in the Core headphones, does it work?
man i just added you and im like digging all of these reviews can you do best headset and mic review for xbox series x only!!!!
Can you tell me if you can swap the microphones between the two? I found a replacement mic for the HyperX Cloud 2 Wireless and want to buy it to is it on the HyperX Cloud Core Wireless since I need this mic mute light.
Its so hard not buying a new headset during these holiday sales. I have 2 headphones, wired cloud 2 and astro a20 for series x. They are both on not so good condition after years of use, mainly the 3.5mm jack being loose and glitchy. I think its time to get a wireless one. Tried the logitech g pro x but since its not for xbox I think im gonna get myself the hyper x cloud flight x (goddamn these names sound like Doofensmirtz creations)

I've tried various things and while it seems better it still sometimes comes up. Does anyone have any idea how to fix? Thankfully I also have the revolver S wired headset which works flawlessly so i can switch quickly if necessary.

Do a review on the Hyper X Cloud Orbit S. It has the same audeze 100mm planar magnetic drivers that you love in the penrose.
im stuck between the two, which one would you recommend more
bought the cloud core and i have a static sound, i just turn them on and the sound is there, is not loud is kinda quiet but is there, i hear it when nothing is played or i just wear them
should i take core wireless or g733 for gaming?

Wait, no joke they really making the HyperX Alpha Wireless? And if so will it still have a detachable 3.5mm cable for when you want to use it on any device. Really hope they can do the same thing that Turtle Beach just made with the Stealth 700Gen 2 Max where they are wireless, works for 40hours straight, USBC rechargeable where you can get 8 hours of use with 10 minutes of fast charging. AND THE BEST FEATURE....A USB dongle that makes the one model work with Xbox One/Series S and X/PS4 and PS5/ Nintendo Switch and even PC. (As well as Bluetooth 5.1 so you can listen to Music or answer phone calls while gaming on any device)

Returned the Cloud Core Wireless. Was not impressed with the overall feel and build quality. Felt very cheap compared to the wired Cloud Core I used for years. The max volume just wasn't enough. I need a headset that can get too loud so I can find that sweet spot. When comparing them to my Corsair HS70 Pro Wireless it wasn't even close. In volume or sound quality. Also the lack of mic monitoring was a deal breaker.
